Yeah, it’s been a huge effort recently. Every GOP Paid moron outlet I can find is talking about how Bush and Cheney are actually great successes… sorry, but the people that would be fooled by this don’t require the effort.

We lost the world trade center. Bush didn’t keep us safe. When these a-holes say he kept us safe they are LYING.

Bush’s Legacy is the Worst. President. Ever. Period.

“On the home front, to virtually everyone’s surprise, we’ve avoided a terrorist attack since Sept. 11″, because that`s all they needed, everything that has gone on since is the SHRUBS legacy and it cannot be SUGAR coated.So between his inuaguration and Sept 11th he had a good rating and that`s about it in my mind!!!!!!

Trust me, the historical record will not be kind to Bush. After all, he’s earned it.

On the home front, to virtually everyone’s surprise, we’ve avoided a terrorist attack since Sept. 11. […]

That’s a repug way of looking at reality.

We didn’t have a foreign “terror” attack until chimpy’s ass became prez.

These attacks could have been easily avoided if chimpy ass played prez instead of golf.

Now the above two are realities.

What repugs are doing now is playing chimpy’s fluffer.

chimpy’s history will be written with thousands of footnotes listing references to the truth.

chimpy history will mock you. The world mocks you…the shoes mock you.

“We are in the midst of the worst recession of our generation, yet it is hard to attribute this crisis to anything that Bush actively did.” Duh.

Bush is directly responsible for the current economic disaster. Look at the planning Obama is doing so he can ‘hit the ground running’ to rebuild the economy. Where was Bush when the economy was deconstructing? What a complete failure of an economy under Bush, and the gall to try to exonerate him.

After chimpy’s disastrous response to 9/11, further attacks weren’t needed. Bush has done damage to our nation OBL could only have dreamed of.

And this coming from this right wing think tank. Well they are not really a think tank. They only think they are. But much if not all that this administration has done, has been suggested and approved by these mindless misfits.

I’ll will take my own judgment instead of theirs. And I will take the judgment of the dozens of scholars that have not had to wait for judgment. When something stinks, it stinks. And removing yourself the mess makes no difference. It still smells to high heaven.

Illegal war, pathological lying, destruction of the Constitution, skyrocketing debt, war profiteering, treaty-breaking, plunging economy, wasted budget surplus, environmental plunder, ruined world relations and one of the most scandal-ridden administrations since Grant place bush at the pinnacle of absolute miserability.

bush will place at the bottom of the pit, when the presidential scholars get around to rating him.

Say that after the United Nations trial for the Bush Administration on War Crimes. Now say what you want facts don’t change and with Cheney running off at the mouth and all those involved who will sing rather then to go to jail. Bush Legacy isn’t finished yet. The Shoe Man was just the beginning of the nightmare and Justice to come.

Typical Republicans refusing to let their boy take responsibility for his disgraceful stint as President. I don’t think most of these guys even believe their own bullshit either.

The usual b.s. And one thing in particular galls me. The claim that we haven’t been attacked since Sept. 11, 2001 (seven years now). First of all, there also wasn’t an attack on the World Trade Center or another major terrorist attack on the U.S. between early 1993 and Sept. 11, 2001. I count that as 8 years. Guess the Clinton administration was doing something to keep us safe as well…or not? And come on….what about the anthrax attacks (blamed on, frankly, probably an innocent man). And not IN the U.S., but all the other terrorist attacks…Spain, England, India, etc. …oh yes…and in Iraq and Afghanistan.

And this: We are in the midst of the worst recession of our generation, yet it is hard to attribute this crisis to anything that Bush actively did

He and those with his mindset didn’t have to do anything actively….these were sins of omission. Failure to regulate.

I think Bush’s legacy will be worst President ever. What does AEI think…better than James Buchanan.

Let’s take two extremes and then place our bet on which one is more likely. One extreme is that Bush will be viewed as a better president in thirty years than he is now. The second extreme is that he will be tried for war crimes and be executed (hung by the neck until dead, preferably with Cheney as a counter weight).

Which extreme do you think is more likely. Taking these extremes in the order presented, there is a less than zero chance that Bush’s record will improve once his horrible, horrible presidency ends. So, that leaves a 100% chance that he will be tried for war crimes and with luck; well use your imagination.

It’s obscene that as so many people face the terror of joblessness and homelessness that all these nitwits are carrying on and on and on about George Bush’s legacy.

Wasn’t Bin Laden’s stated plan in attacking us to get us to completely trash our own economy? As a measure of Bush’s response to terrorism, all we have to do is check – how’s the economy doing?
