McCain is the one who helped elect The Messiah - not George W. Bush. And the moral decline of the American people did not help either.
9/11 increased Republican congressional seats, and also provided cover for W's liberal, big-spending programs of his first term.
After the unity and patriotism of 9/11 waned, we got the real W/Rove effect in 2006 and 2008, which were two consecutive catastrophes.
All either Bush did was ride in on the political capital and influence earned by others (Reagan, Gingrich, etc.), and then fritter it away with their Democrat-lite, big spending approach to government.
You are correct. The MSM has their very usable mc cain to promote the 'it's bushes fault' during Bush's admin. It was so obvious, yet mc cain relished in being used by enemy for their purpose. He was rewarded with letting him run - he bowed to BHO yet couldn't stop kicking Bush whenever he got the chance. Is there something in the Arizona water that makes them dull and they can't see the obvious? He showed his rabid side some more during the primary with the conservative opponent for his seat. He truly is the enemy within.
“Bush(43) won both his elections. In 2004, he increased the number of congressional seats. He is hardly a catastrophe. “
If you like MORE and MORE G’ment, then you are correct, the Bush’s are not a catastrophe.
I for one prefer a LIMITED G’ment as defined by the Constitution.
> “Bush(43) won both his elections. In 2004, he increased the number of congressional seats. He is hardly a catastrophe.”
Not accurate. He didn’t do any of those things, we did it for him.
Here is the precise description:
Conservatives won the election for Bush in 2000 as they chose to support Bush over Gore in 2000 thinking Bush was more like them and was in any case the best that could be had under the circumstances. Many had misgivings as to his true conservative leanings and many had concerns about his experience and judgement but were persuaded that he would be surrounded by wise conservatives. The only consistent conservative trait that Bush expressed personally and through his policy formation brought by his inner circle of conservative advisers was in faith-based actions and orders.
Conservatives won the election for Bush over Kerry in 2004 because they thought with a GOP House and Senate he would be able to pass the conservative agenda. I personally worked night and day and gave every last cent I had to elect Bush in 2004 thinking major tax reform during his second term would be passed.
Bush’s second term was a disaster. We gave him the benefit of the doubt, we gave him a full GOP Congress and he squandered all of it.
No more Bushes, ever.
And Bush lost us the House in 06, with his bailouts.
He said he would sign the Assault Rifle Bill, he said he would veto an English as an official language bill, he did NOTHING to stop an AVALANCHE of illegal aliens from violating our borders. I could go on and on about this idiot, his equally idiot father and brother and his odious mother.
As long as the GOP establishment CONTINUES to foster RINOS like Bush and Romney the Rats will win.
