He may have not been a monster, but he was not a great president. That’s just being honest. If we want to move forward we have to recognize the deficiencies of the people we supported so we don’t make the same mistakes.
Precisely why we must say No to Jeb.
He was a good president, but not great. Few are great, and most of us have seen at most one in our lifetime. The list of positives for Bush is fairly long. There are also some real negatives. He definitely exceeded his dad, who raised taxes, folded to the opposition, killed off the Reagan majorities and couldn’t muster a second term despite a significant military victory.
Great first term, terrible second....but much better than Kerry would have been. What do ya do?
After Ronald Reagan, GW Bush is the greatest president to serve in my 60 years. Including Reagan, Bush was the greatest war time president during my lifetime.
To choose between Bush and Obama, I wouldn’t just crawl over broken glass or walk across hot coals (pick your metaphor), I’d EAT broken glass and hot coals and I’d do it ... here it comes ... every day of the week and twice on Sunday.
So please America not another Bush or Clinton.
