You and Trump are both wrong about Bush
I don’t think anybody understands the difficulty of that job. ‘bam is oblivious, suspended in a solipsistic ether.
W wasn’t that way.
And keep in mind that the congress and senate were controled by the dims in both terms; remember jump’n Jim?
And there was 9/11 and two wars that couldn’t be avoided.
And then Katrina— a dim mess that, with the help of the media, they smeared W with.
9/11 derailed the administrations plans to encourage more oil refineries and oil exploration.
Fannie and Freddie precipitated the credit crises; Bush and Cheney tried to address that too, but were rebuffed by the dim senate in cya mode.
I’m convinced that a massive campaign of market and media manipulation by outsiders— perhaps Soros was most prominent, but he couldn’t have been the only one— paved the way for ‘bams win. (Remember how oil plunged the summer prior to the election, nullifying the ‘pubs single most appealing issue? I can’t believe that was coincidence.
Even considering all this, our neighbors voted for ‘bam and elected him. College educated (supposedly) people swooned under the spell of hollow, nonsensical tripe from the mouth of a synthetic ghost.
I’ve quit the drinking I started the night this country elected ‘bam, but I don’t think I’ll ever get over the nausea the mere thought of him provokes.
Fact is, W was a president far better than this country deserved.
