Grew government more than any President before him. Created the infrastructure of a police state, knowing his successors would not all be angels. Yeah, a great President right there. No one living has known a good President. No, actually he shrunk gov before Reid and Pelosi took over Congress in 2006. 2002 2,630 1,456 66 4,152 2007 2,636 1,427 63 4,127 http://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/data-analysis-documentation/federal-employment-reports/historical-tables/total-government-employment-since-1962/ Budget, not employees. Under his watch the Federal budget grew by over 1.1 trillion dollars. He also grew the budget by 700 billion before 2006. Can't blame that on a Democratic Congress. That's not bad for fighting a global fucking war that was forced on him... Iraq was not forced on us, it was a war of choice over dubious reasons that turned out to be false. |

That's really cool that he spent US tax dollars to help people who are not US citizens.
How about we use that money to help US citizens or don't use any of that money at all???

I like him personally, which is why his legacy is all the more disappointing. He made some regrettable mistakes in his first term; understandable given that we were responding to a new threat whose dimensions were yet unknown. Had he prosecuted his second term with the alacrity and decisiveness he did his first; he'd have been a great president. Unfortunately, he spent his entire second term undermining the accomplishments of his first and surpassing them in a downward spiral. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

He is the poster child for misplaced compassion being a corrupting influence. He also tried to be "above it all" when, in his second term, the left went full retard. Yes, he was president, but he was also a politician. Since he was a politician who didn't do politics, he allowed the dem narrative to go unopposed. This resulted in Obama. W is largely resposible for creating the political climate, through negligent omission, that gave us Obama. I think W is a good man. I think he lacked the backbone to do everything that needed to be done. (He did some of what needed to be done). He is also an example of a weak-mind being steered by his advisors and bending to "consensus". Well said. That is EXACTLY how I think and feel about GW He made some regrettable mistakes in his first term; understandable given that we were responding to a new threat whose dimensions were yet unknown.

He let the DNC set the agenda, the tone, and the phrasing of the arguments. ETA - the "weak mind" comment is too much. I can't explain his motives for allowing some of the things he allowed. Part of it is certainly that one hires advisers to advise on matters in their area of expertise, and one listens to their advice. LBJ is a classic example of a president who micromanaged. W tried to behave like he was above it all. His refusal to confront the left by using the same methods let them trample his policies and use them for power and personal fortune. It was Washington at its worst. |

Was it the bailout, campaigning on a platform of signing a new assault weapons ban, or gutting the constitution that made you like him? Could it have been making taxpayers fund his baseball stadium, or maybe even the atf going hog wild on his watch? Possibly even his choice of putting a chickenshit on scotus that upheld obamacare?

View Quote The story from the media and liberal teachers was that George Bush was a laissez faire supporting, free market loving, capitalist whose deregulation and free market principles caused the economy to tank. That's blatant bullshit. George Bush was not even close to being a fiscal conservative and he strongly supported centralized planning like any other progressive. Now a lot of people have a bad taste in their mouth when they hear about Capitalism because they errantly associate it with George Bush's socialist policies. |
