What the World thinks of Bush

OldJeff · 01-31-2005

I think the major problem I have with the rabid Bush supporters is a total unwillingness to acknowledge any of the BAD shit that his policies have done.

-Insert standard war rhetoric here-

Every president in my lifetime has been good and bad for various reasons.

LBJ as mentioned - Civil Rights / Welfare State
Nixon - Watergate / OSHA, EPA
Ford - I don't really count Ford since he was an accident
Carter - incredible progress in world peace / Horrible Economy
Reagan - Iran Contra - HUGE deficit / The Fall of the Berlin Wall
Clinton - Balanced Budget - Great Economy - Military Cuts, Bosnia, etc
Bush - First Term - Tax Cuts - Removal of the Taliban / Record deficit

Every policy has a flip side of the coin

Unless you look at and give value to that flip side, you are simply blowing hot air.
