I’m down on George Bush at this time, but we should point out - Bush gave us Roberts, but he also gave us Alito.
The only good thing he did, and he wanted Myers.

Yep, and Trump gave us Neil “1964 civil rights act applies to trannies” Gorsuch. Yet FReepers still argue Trump “kept“ his campaign pledge to appoint only “Scalia-like pro-life originalist judges” and argue Bush did “nothing” for us.
Bush is a Globalist. He isn’t the sharpest tool in the box, though and was easily influenced by those around him. His treatment of Scooter Libby shows us how his views changed according to how his friends changed. I blame Karl Rove for that. He seemed to think that popularity and consensus were all that mattered. Virtue signaling substituted for real morality.
