Meh. It was a political appointment, nothing more.

The CIA head was GHWB the elder.

There were large organized protests on his inauguration day, literally before he did anything as President. Tell me again how he caused partisanship. Oh that's easy. "Partisanship" for liberals is defined as anything conservatives do. Whenever a liberal does something similar, that's defined as "Speaking truth to power".

Disagree too! However you are referring to the father he was appointed as a caretaker head of CIA. All that takes most of the time is to be a well-connected political bureaucrat! It was after the Church Hearings a harmless “do-nothing” was what that was required.
W did fly F106s yes it was for the National Guard but a still a dangerous plane to fly. It and its predecessor the F102 killed a lot of pilots.
W played rugby in college, he probably would have been duct taping you to the flag! He was no scholar that’s for sure!
The old man flew TBFs in WWII.
Not an admirer of the Bushs by any means but not mindlessly hostile. Remember the other choices were Dukakis, Gore, & Kerry. All three makes the vote self-explanatory!

Im talking about the Republican Party platform WHEN TRUMP RAN FOR PRESIDENT ... not the party platform from a thousand years ago before indoor plumbing was invented.
Lighten up, dude.

That's ok. It's not like you forgot where you were on Nov. 22, 1963, like GHWB did.

Trump is returning the Republican Party to a pro labor protectionist party and you old globalist wind bags can’t stand it.

Decisive? Really?
I recently watched a documentary on Reagan. It’s been the same bs since before then. Democrats were opposed to him for no other reason than he was a Republican. It’s not really any different now. Democrats are still evil.

I dont know why you insist on acting like such a stunted malcontent here on FR. If Trump was an open-borders globalist I NEVER WOULD HAVE VOTED FOR HIM.

My mother always said Dubya was a small man in a big job. How right she was.

Partisanship was always there. Trump exposed it.

Because the focal point of his campaign was booting/keeping out illegal immigrants and cutting taxes/regulations.... both staples of the leftists existence.
