“The rantings of a lunatic narcissist with the maturity of a 8 yr old.”

Rantings???

It is a question most of us have been asking for a long time.

The jobs lost...the stagnant income and middle class during his reign..illegal immigration-which he did nothing about except make it worse. We saw Saturday night the few cheering who benefited from his bs economy.

People don't talk about the Bush economy nearly enough.

It was terrible. America hasn't had a good economy since the 90s.

Because he surfaces now? That’s it? This is all it took to ignore the enormous damage Obama has done to this nation? Obama should have forced him out a long time ago, there wouldn’t be any IRS or VA scandal, no red lines, no Benghazi, no Muslim Brotherhood.........we could have focused on some tiny shit GWB did. BUT now, he’s out and we can watch media ignore how Hillary was responsible for the murder of four men in Benghazi and focus real issues like the underwear the detainees at Graib were forced to wear on their heads, UNDER BUSHES WATCH.

This makes me sick.

Here is where I agree and disagree.

He should have defended himself strongly with himself and the power of the administration before he left office.

But the fact that he went silent after leaving office was classy and Trump is off base because he doesn’t understand ‘Class’.

Im glad so many here can only worry about social issues and not economic ones because I dont have that luxury.

Well said.

The crowd that doesn't like Trump because he's "rude" are simply delusional.

They will NEVER be satisfied. Soon they'll find something wrong with Cruz. And Carson. And every other promising Republican.

They are perfectly happy to welcome infinite losses.

“Exhibit # 10,200,000,304 why we continue to lose. “Let’s be polite in the face of evil and deception.”

On target, Solson. We have people who want to fight using Marquess of Queensberry Rules, while the other side enters the ring with brass knuckles, a knife and a club. They’re completely oblivious to the fact that we’re at war.

please tell me why in the hell, after eight miserable years under the jackboot of Barack Obama, George W. Bush is the target?

Because they're on the same team.

George W. Bush did not defend his own stated beliefs that well when he was president. He did not fight the war of ideas. He is nothing but a over-privileged scion of a family that makes its money through its political connections. As long as the Bush family was getting its coin he didn’t feel bothered enough to defend the stated beliefs of the Republican Party and the majority of Americans.

I still remember watching on the news a how Bush orchestrated the flight of a jumbo jet full of the Saudi Royal family and the Bin Laden family flying out of the US while we were still digging for survivors under the Tein Towers ruble.

To hell with the Bush family.

didnt speak up while in office to forcefully advocate his conservative values.

You're assuming he has conservative values.



He doesn't.

I bet you think that using uppercase will somehow make you the most clever poster on FR.

Ya’ better apply for a copyright before someone claims to be the original deep thinker who used it first.

The Bushes only come out to fight in smearing conservatives and helping their own kin. After that, they don’t care. They let liberals define them no matter what.

He stayed silent because he was unjustly ripped apart by the media and the left. He was blamed for Katrina, and not a bit of blame went to the democrats in charge in New Orleans.
He was trashed. He was blamed for everything that went wrong.

“Why he was making money (evil capitalism) and creating JOBS!”

Is this a reference to Trump University?

Those towers were attacked before and W knew it and didn’t take measures to prevent it happening again, that alone, would give credence that he didn’t keep our country safe.

Do you really think Mr. Quitter-pants wouldn’t have gone off in a huff if Congress didn’t hop to it and say yes-sir, how high sir?!

In fairness about 9/11, there was a complete lack of attention by clinton and bush. Washington seems to me more concerned with keeping its lobbyists happy.

I can’t envision a circumstance under which I would have been willing to vote for Perot.

Enough people did and ended up 'blessing' us with a president Clinton.

You would think that a new president coming into office would make an concerted effort to find out if there is anything really bad in the pipeline that would need to be dealt with.

It’s a matter of priorities. Deal with the big issues, and let the minor stuff wait.

I’m tired of the excuse that because of the Florida hanging chad situation, Bush wasn’t able to get his act together in time to prevent 9-11, or at least make an attempt.
