After five years on this forum, I'm still amazed by what some people will post just to get a dig in at this President.....

I give Bush credit where credit is due. And on the judiciary, tax cuts and the war on terror Bush has been great. But expanding the role of the federal government is a major difference between Conservative and Liberal philosophy, and Bush has been a liberal in this area. Some of it can be passed off on Katrina and the war on terror, but not the prescription drug program, not the no child left behind act. Realistically, Bush would be a lot more popular if he would attack the budget. Now most voters think the GOP is the party of big government. Is it too much to ask the President to at least pretend he cares about out of control run away government spending? I guess I am on the wrong forum if wanting to control the size of government is wrong.

Wow! You really reached with that one!

My point was that you took this revisionist history thread that inaccurately portrays Bill Clinton as doing more than he actually did regarding welfare reform, to bash President Bush and compare him negatively with the most vile, disingenuous man to ever occupy the Oval Office.

It amazes me that anyone would ever do that.........that's all. Why not comment on the article? Isn't that what this forum is supposed to be about?

Or is it, in your view, a chance to bash President Bush (on a subject we probably all agree on, btw) on threads where it doesn't apply at all?
