US needs 100 years to recover from Bush

From correspondents in Madrid

June 15, 2008 02:15am Article from: Agence France-Presse

IT will take the the United States a century to recover from the damage wreaked by President George W Bush, US writer Gore Vidal said in an interview published today.

"The president behaved like a virtual criminal but we didn't have the courage to sack him for fear of violating the American constitution,'' Mr Vidal told the El Mundo newspaper.

In the case of Gore Vidal it might be a STD.

Wow, talk about over-the-top rhetoric. I'm not Bush's biggest fan, but this is just stupidity.

Well, duh...

It takes at least 100 years to outlast the effects of ANY presidency. For example, we’re still living with the after-effects of Andrew Jackson.

Trouble is, it will take us 200 years to get out from under the dismal legacies of Carter and Bilk Linton.

Yeah... that nasty ol' inconvenient Constitution keeps getting in the way of those poor ol' LEFTISTS getting their jackboot on the back of other people's necks.

Actually under Bush, until the dems took back congress, things were going quite well, housing was up, gas was 2.50.

If the GOP expects to win, it needs to remind Americans, the last two years, the dems have ruined our congress.

I wonder if he has ever read the history of WWI and President Wilson, most of the things they accuse Bush of Wilson actually did. Censoring the media, prosecuting his opponents and the opponents of the war, asserting executive authority to take control.

Gore Vidal was sort of relevant 40 years ago.

That is the most incoherent deranged statement yet to come out of the Hysteric Left. It's official, Gore Vidal has gone senile.

He probably thinks the same thing about Nixon, Ford, Reagan, and H.W. Bush.

He is a pathetic individual. A man with deep seated hatred of normal people with happy lives. Homosexual, politically radical, nothing he has desired has ever come to pass. He craves chaos and destruction and twists in the wind.

It's not for nothing that this flaming tool's first name is Gore!

Wilson was a democrat. That doesn’t count.

If “Amerika” were the “fascist” state that the peacecreeps and loony left keep saying it is, they wouldn’t be allowed to criticize our leaders and would be hauled away to political prisons for 10% of what they do. The fact that Gore Vidal, Cindy Sheehan, Barbara Streisand, Michael Moore, Code Pink, International ANSWER and the rest of that smelly crew freely walk the streets disproves all their claims!
