(69 posts)...and baby Bush...he's just the epitome of evil...his "library" is a mockery of the American public and democracy...
"You, too, can break international and constitutional laws...lie to the entirety of the American public...engage in an erroneous war...killing over 4,000 Americans and countless Iraqi civilians...and...get your very own revisionist library too."
...good ole American dream in action...
where is the outrage and the humanity??? so saddened...

And remember, not one democratic Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton or Elizabeth Warren or Alan Grayson or Joe Biden or Jerry Brown vote is needed to get Jeb the nomination of the republican party.
They didn't have enough voters to get W in, in 2000, however because of Ralph Nader and later the courts, W was seated.
Any fracture will only lead to Jeb being President.
LIke happened for Ike in 1952
Nixon in 1968,1972
Reagan in 1980,1984
41 in 1988
W in 2000 and 2004
the choice is evident.
Karen Hughes, Mary, Karl, all of the crew are there and working hard to elect Jeb Bush2016.
The choice is the protest voters whether a protest vote lets that happen.
Luckily, I believe there are not enough to overcome the electoral college advantage
President Obama and Hillary and Bill have on the nation.
But one vote might make a difference.

(15,800 posts)on some kind of diplomatic thing for W? She told the Egyptians that "one nation under God" is embedded in our Constitution. Until then I'd thought she was at least smarter than Harriett "I don't get out enough" Meyers, who opined that W was "the most brilliant man" she'd ever met.
Gahhh.

2) Oops, didn't get Bin Laden.
Yes, we got KSM, and that was a big deal. However, we had our chance to get Bin Laden in '04 at Tora Bora, and blew it.
3) Oops, Mission Accomplished
not-so-much
4) Oops, wrecked the economy.
On 1/20/2009, the DJIA was at 7949. TARP, and it's purchase of $700 B in troubled assets, became law on October 3, 2008. It is not an Obama progeam, as many wingnuts now misremember. Bush supporters frequently try to pass blame to Bill Clinton and his signing of Gramm-Leach-Bliley for the debacle of the lateer part of the last decade. My response to that is simple: the GOP had both houses of Congress from 2000-2006 and the WH (and, thus, the Treasury department) from 2001-2009; they saw the huge runup in housing prices just like the rest of us, and it happened on their watch. They had the power to stop or slow the spike in prices through demanding returns to higher up-fromt equity on mortgages, as well as ending practices such as no-income-veriication loans (simply raising mortgage interest rates would have helped put on the brakes). They didn't. They did nothing until the market had crashed. I'm also here to tell you (as a one-time Floridian) that the market didn't crash in '08 or '09. Housing prices started falling in early '06.
