Oh sob! Like Bush didn't deserve criticism for: 1. Signing CFR. 2. Failure to use veto pen and reining a free-spending Congress. 3. Free drugs for seniors--the precursor to Obama's healthcare disaster. 4. Kennedy's No Child Left Behind. 5. Immigration reform. 6. A quicker and successful end to OIF and OEF. 7. "Mission Accomplished" PR stunt. 8. Compassionate Conservatism. 9. Helen Meyers and Dubai Ports. 10. "Heckuva Job Brownie!"
I give him credit for Roberts and Alito as well as rallying the nation after 9-11 and tax cuts in 2001 BUT there is little more to cheer for "Doublepeeyew"!
YUP that’s what I don’t miss!
His 2002 “compassionate” and “generous” Farm Bill should be added to the list, too.
And I think you mean "Harriet Myers", but what's a little misspelling when you're busy trashing a good man?
Someone correct me if I'm wrong here....but I thought this was a fabrication by the MSM....
That is HILAROUS coming from you, meandog. You're the biggest McCain pimp on FR, and McCain was the lead GOP voice for both CFR and shamnesty. But there is no sense in appealing to your sense of shame, because you long ago demonstrated you have none.
There was no such thing. The sailors and airmen of the Abraham Lincoln did that on their own to commemorate the mission they indeed accomplished over an incredible 290 day deployment. In fact, all the troops who participated in the invasion of Iraq and run up to Baghdad accomplished their mission brilliantly, despite a lot of armchair generals claiming they wouldn't.
IMHO the snarky put-downs directed toward Bush and that banner dishonor the accomplishment of all who participated in that operation.
The subsequent occupation and nation building operation suffered from missteps and unexpected problems to overcome but in no way diminished the achievement of the invading force. Ironically, it now appears the second Iraqi mission is being successfully accomplished in light of the recent elections and withdrawal of most U.S. troops from combat. Iraq seems to have dropped out of the President and media's vocabulary now that it can't be portrayed as a failure.
