Terrible Tarryl is around 10% points behind, so expect many more stories like this ...

give it a break Michelle!

I know I will now get flamed by the Michelle fans...I like her too. and flamed by the Bush Bashers too.

But you don’t need to join the left and bash Bush. give it a break..Just move forward. Its always ugly when conservatives start to tear down other conservatives.

Ok, now everyone on board and all at once” But, but she was JUST being HONEST’. Yeah, right.
Guess I am just getting fed up with all of them and their egos.

“Bush was a mediocrity as president who got elected because the alternative in both cases was far worse. He is no conservative and many of his actions went far to discredit his party and give Hussein the White House and the leftists control of the congress. That said - compared to the buffoon we have now Bush looks like a statesman of the first order. I was right to vote for him twice because Gore is a proven lunatic and Lurch a seditious, pompous fool. But it sure would be nice to be able to vote for someone because I thought he/she was really the best one for the job.”

BUMP

So was his not securing the border and not dealing with amnesty.

He’s not suffering; just the people are suffering.

I like Bush in many regards, but some of his policies and programs deserve loud criticism.

Hell, even the Patriot Act was a mistake in my mind. Too much open-ended power given to every administration. What happens when bad guys wield that power?

Michele Bachmann - Savage's favorite elected official.

TSN agrees wholeheartedly!

Bush (Dubya) now admits the bailout was a mistake. So is Bush throwing Bush under the bus?

Politico is a totally liberal site that tries to pretend like they are not...hoping to sew discord among conservatives in every little way they can think of.

If you keep this in mind while reading their stuff, it's pretty easy to spot the pattern.

“he had some major flaws. Among them: Amnesty, big spending, big government, and failure to stand up and speak the truth to Dem lies.”

Very true.

Also his proclivity to pick SC justices as reflected in his first choices: “Al” Gonzalez and Harriet Myers. Much in the vein of his old man’s picking Souter. Fortunately conservatives raised enought Cain to shame him into picking Roberts and Alito, two very good picks.

“..lunatic and ....seditious, pompous fool....” tends to describe every democrat in political office.

I am not so hard on Bush, he made some horrible mistakes, but I he was the best conservative the voting public would accept. And he got in but the thinnest possible of margins.
He had little political capital because of the margin of his election victory. The “public” was still too much in the “mushy middle”. We tend to forget here on FR we are preaching mostly to the choir. I think we can thank Zero, Reid & Pelosi for waking up the “public” to what's exactly at stake. We either be the USA or at best some warmed over lack luster dysfunctional version of Sweden. Worst case (which is where is possible!) would be unthinkable!

Respectfully, Bachmann has been a target of the left since before Sarah became governor of Alaska.

Her being smeared has nothing to do with Palin.

But your larger point is correct: Politico covers for Obama and smears Palin.

Voting against the bailouts is worth bragging about.

Bush sold us out and he deserves to be under the bus.

I don’t agree that Bush should be thrown under the bus but his support of the Wall Street Bailout was just plain wrong and because of it we got Barack Obama.

“Medicare Part D”

How could I ever forget MediPill? When no one was asking for it, none of the Seasoned Citizens demanding it, out of the blue Jorge proposed, and the Republican Congress passed, the biggest welfare program since the LBJ administration.

With friends like this, who needs enemies?

Thanks for the reminder.
