A lifetime's worth of "real-world experience" is worthless if it's spent betraying one's core beliefs, blindly following others, and whoring oneself out in the name of "pragmatism."
He disrespects George Bush with the cliches and trite slogans of the left.
Bush is part of the American establishment, a grouping that spans all political parties.
He voted third-party in the latest presidential election. He's an Obama enabler.
When have I directly aided and abetted Obama? Don't give me that Bushbot tripe about "you're either with us or against us"; such a naive and grossly oversimplified view of reality overlooks the possibility that I might be against both Democrats and Republicans, considering that they are both part of the American establishment and, will, in the interests of "pragmatism" and their own self-preservation, voluntarily and unhesitatingly throw me to the wolves in order to save themselves, as evidenced in the bailouts—pushed by both Republicans and Democrats— of the past fall.
Definitely relevant! That is, I'd say he's very bright if he understands so much without a lot of real-world experience!
God Bless you Mr. President, you are a good man who loves his country and its people, and you have taken excellent care of your office.
We will not see this again...for many, many, many, years.
If ever.
Yeah they hate him for their own reasons and I don't give a crap about that.
He should have used his veto pen more in dealing with Congress.
Neither you nor babspuddle has an inkling about how politics work, how foreign policy works, what President Bush knows or why he's done the things he's done in office.
Bush-bashers are stunningly ignorant.
LOL!
“He should have used his veto pen more in dealing with Congress”
That I will agree with, Pres. Bush (with a responsible Congress) could have committed himself to restoring government to a more reasonable, efficient, and effective institution ... maybe along the lines of original intent. They made some half hearted attempts but didn’t seem to have the stomach for it, perhaps we aren’t ready for a revival .... I still hope one is possible. The responsibility for governmental failures lies as heavily on the citizens as it does their representatives. It seem that we choose our representatives based on the fad and fancy of personality than policy and vision.
