Bush’s Patriot Act created all the mechanisms for the Clinton, DOJ, Brennan, Comey coup attempt against Trump
Pretty much have to say you’re not incorrect.
Yes, major Bush failures in my book:
1. Failed to properly identify the enemy who attacked us on 9/11 (radical Islam), thus leading to $7 trillion and thousands of lives wasted on nation-building wars that have left us less secure than had we not fought them.
2. Patriot Act, as you mentioned.
3. Slithery SCOTUS pick (Roberts) who sold us out on Obamacare and other cases.
4. Failure to secure the border after 9/11, and subsequent sell out on immigration, which has turned a number of states from red to purple, and soon blue.
5. Failure to crack down on mortgage abuse and subsequent bail out with taxpayer dollars of those responsible for the financial meltdown.
Yes, probably Obama taken as a whole did worse for the country than Bush, but if you compare Bush to what a Republican ought to have done and Obama compared to Democrats in general, I’d say the impact of Bush was worse.
