We are trying to bring this horrific mess back together.. cleaning up once again after Bush and company.

Did he not run everything he touched into the ground?

1. Diesel emissions
These were greatly restricted under the GWB EPA.

Offhand, this is the only thing I can think of that was done in the public's interest.

10. Ah that's right.
WHY was that not a sign? ..... Seriously? Why didn't Gore just stand up during the debates and say, "This putz traded Sammy Sosa! Need I say more?"

8. He produced many new trends in the Fear Behavior Complex
The only thing we need to fear is not letting Fear take us over... that's what Bush might say. He managed Fear very, very well.

11. Your point?
Bush didn't create the health care situation in this country and the "solution" we're about to get is about what I would've expected from him.

12. Well actually he was quite successful in totally f----g up the country.

I think that was the goal of the Republicans to leave the country in such debt that Democrats wouldn't have the money to accomplish any real change.

14. ... but you're missing the point of what he was sent to do . . . !!!
Both Bush's were highly successful at delivering evil for the elite --

delivering destructive policies -- delivering war -- remember Poppy got us over

the "Vietnam Syndrome" . . . !!!

17. Absolutely agree with you, akbacchus_BC. I'm so sick of the
Obama bashing. I normally only post in the Barack Obama Group. If you haven't yet, check it out. In my entire life the Bush decade was without question the worst ever. It was much worse than I expected and I expected it would be bad.

of the history books that he was the best president there ever was. Just wait and see.

19. He successfully convinced the people of Texas that he wasn't some dipshit Connecticut Yankee
educated at elite schools, who had never worked a day in his life, wasn't a cowboy by any stretch of the imagination, owned no cattle and was afraid of horses.

He did that very well...

Says as much about Texans as it does about Bush...

20. Nope, nothing. He failed his way to the top in such a fashion that it should
be the stuff of infamy for as long as stories are passed down from parent to child.
