Perhaps you need to read up your political history. GHW's biggest failure was falling for the democRATs lies that the nation would go broke if he didn't raise taxes. The RATS claimed that this was the only solution, and GHW mistakenly gave in. Then the RATS turned around and used GHW's campaign pledge of "No new taxes" against him.
Nor was he helped by Alan Greenspan who refused to lower interest rates -- until Clinton was in office.
Do you even recall the outrageous lies and distortions of the truth that the RATS used against GHW during the campaign? Or do you even care? Having read your numerous anti-Bush comments on several threads, I believe you are a troll.
If the spin stops here, then stop spinning. You continue to rail against a less than perfect president to what end? Politics has ever been about voting for the lesser of two evils, so get a clue!
I am proud that GW Bush is our president even though I don't agree with him on some very important issues, but I will never bow down to Mecca, as his opponents would invite, in order to appease our enemies.
I disagree. Politics used to be about principle and the top of the ticket was a crony to the party if they weren't leading...not the other way around. The concept of "the lesser of two evils" is, in my opinion, giving up.
There has to be someone willing to stand up and win on pure principle alone.
