There is a much overlooked attribute in the Bush Administration: consistency. For example, the Bush Administration has handled the war in Iraq as capably as it has handled the disaster in Louisiana resulting from Katrina. This consistency is all-encompassing. If nothing else, the president's leadership has been thoroughly consistent. Perhaps there is some comfort to be had in knowing what to expect -- if not necessarily in outcome, then certainly in the caliber of the decision-making.
As long as you don;t live in Iraq and had your infastructure, culture, and freedom destroyed (AGAIN, after sr. bush's genocide in 1991). minor point.
I wonder why they hate us...
Did anyone catch this history of Cheney and Addington. Their whole theory revolves around the fact that the President, our President, should be able to be a complete dictator and not bother telling Congress anything, ever. This goes back to Nixon times I guess, pretty interesting.
Of course it aired on PBS, so I'm sure it'll be labeled moonbat dribble or some such nonsense. FWIW, I am not a Democrat, I just love our country and worry about things like this.
"For three decades Vice President Dick Cheney conducted a secretive, behind-closed-doors campaign to give the president virtually unlimited wartime power. Finally, in the aftermath of 9/11, the Justice Department and the White House made a number of controversial legal decisions. Orchestrated by Cheney and his lawyer David Addington, the department interpreted executive power in an expansive and extraordinary way, granting President George W. Bush the power to detain, interrogate, torture, wiretap and spy -- without congressional approval or judicial review." Read more »
No wonder it seems that he wants to have a perpetual war.

Bingo!I see comments here about the Iraq war, but sadly (and typical of democrats) nothing about GBush's crusade against the sovereignty of the US by flooding the US with illegal alien slaves from Mexico and Central America. Billions have been pissed away in Iraq, along with thousands of Americans lives. More has been lost in the US in terms of $$ spent to house, feed, educate, medicate, and incarcerate illegal aliens in the US as well as the massive transfer of wealth, of industries from America to Mexico, China, other nations. Many more American's have been murdered and maimed by illegal aliens in the US than by "insurgents" (dumbass Americans won't even call them terrorists) in Iraq and Afghanistan. A veteran of the war gets to come home to see his children's school now teach spanish to his children, his wife loses her job because she is not fluent or dark skinned enough; not many US flags, but plenty of Mexican ones in his face, he gets to hear how drug dealers are given immunity so Bush's govt can prosecute border agents and other law enforcement, and when he pays taxes again they can go for all this bullshit. Thanks GWB, thanks for nothing, you horrid SOB.
A lapdog!
Jeez, you guys make this too easy.
George W. Bush will probably live long enough to see his name at the bottom of the list of all American Presidents: the worst this nation ever produced. But when asked to defend reasons for his overwhelming failure, the historians will scramble for answers acceptable to the ideology of the guild. They dare not say, "He broke the post-World War II American empire that Franklin Roosevelt launched and Harry Truman put nuclear teeth into." They must find alternative wording. They will mumble something like this: "He overreached the available military power." Ho, hum.
Then there is Bush's other failure: "He bankrupted the Federal government by turning control over to Asian central banks." Again, alternative phraseology will be developed. "He did not set realistic domestic goals." Boring.
The real reason for the media's hatred of Bush is this: "He has imprudently and without verbal grace smashed the Progressive agenda on the rocks of reality." Too forthright.
So, how can the historians tar and feather him, if all he did was push the Progressive agenda too far and too fast? With this: "He was a conscious agent of the Christian Right." The fact that none of his advisors is a card-carrying member of this vast theocratic conspiracy will not matter. Bush is seen as a fellow traveler, even though he, like Clinton (on occasion), attends a United Methodist Church.
The historians will do to Bush what Bush said he would do to Osama bin Laden. They will bring him in "dead or alive."
