The difference between you and me is that I view Bush (or any other president) the way I view a plumber or a tax preparer, and you view him as a saint. If a plumber floods my home or a tax preparer causes me to be audited, I give them a piece of my mind. I pay their salaries and I expect results. You view criticisms as borderline blasphemy. I view them as a normal response to bad service.
I don’t view Bush as a saint. I view him as a man who tried and made some mistakes. I see you’re still keen though to dump on him and change the subject from Assad and the thread. In this, you are an apologist and a sophist. The article wasn’t about Bush. You can blame Bush all you want for forcing Assad to support terrorism. But do you know what? Assad was in bed with terrorists before the Second Gulf War. It’s true. Bush didn’t cause Assad to kill Americans. It was the way the Assad gangster family operates. Now, it’s come back to haunt him. Now, you can reply and tell me that Bush ruined Obama’s naïve world, or that if not for Bush Assad would never have got in bed with al Qaeda, but you’re just going in circles.
