Well, to be fair, it was the Bush administration that started this cellulosic ethanol nonsense.

More and more, junior Bush reminds me of Nixon. From his signing this biofuel foolery with penalties and subsidies to his compassionate conservatism with Medicare Part D and No Child Left Behind he was still vilified by an opposition that wanted our defeat in war.

I used to think what the Dems did to Nixon had a lot to do with their vendetta stemming from Helen Gahagan Douglas and Alger Hiss. But looking at the way Dems were seized by Bush Derangement Syndrome, it’s obvious they will do the same thing to any Republican president, no matter how “compassionate” they try to be or how many times they support legislation liked by the Dems. Nixon founded the EPA ferchrisake and they still went after him.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t GW Bush sign CFR after saying he thought it might be unconstitutional but let the courts sort it out? I may remember that wrong...

Things still stink that Bush #1 did as well. Even Reagan succumbed to a Brady in a wheel chair and took away machine guns out of the hands of nearly all Americans for good.
