I still think that he is a man of good character, in sharp contrast to his predecessor, and that he is a far better man than Al Gore or John Kerry.
His intentions are good, but of course we are all well aware that the Road to Hell is paved with good intentions.
I still say that George W. Bush hovers just above Bill Clinton as one of the worst Presidents in U.S. history. Some people who post here on FR don't like that--and that is as it should be. People who post here tend to be highly intelligent and to think for themselves; so, as they are constantly evaluating and re-evaluating matters truthfully, their opinions will inevitably differ, which is a good sign of honest evaluation.
Well said.
I agree with all that you say, except that I was never in favor of Dubya. When he was campaigning in 2000 and used phrases like “family values don’t stop at the Rio Grande” I knew that Bush had no intention of enforcing immigration law.
He turned out to be worse than even I imagined, he not only didn’t enforce the law he worked to actively subvert it. Southern California already had serious problems due to years of illegal immigration, and Dubya threw gasoline on that fire. And far from just having local impact, this has given the Democratic Left a lock on California.
If you’ve never seen Larry Auster’s ‘My Bush Epiphany’ I know that you’ll enjoy it:
