No, Bush gets pilloried as a racist and does not argue for the result we want. With the exception of Reagan, mostly, that's what we get--Pubbies take a half-assed position, not enough to do any real good, but reap all the negatives. Sheesh.

I think you are wrong ... Bush argued a 'compassionate conservative' position that acknowledge that we want and need fairness, but that racial quotes were illegimate and unconstitutional ways to attempt 'fairness' and 'equality'.

I have gotten over my misperceived notions over this administration about one year ago.
My expectation ran high once Chucko was eliminated in the election. I no longer hold those expectations. No longer can I tell any of them apart.
I feel like I am at the ball game, hungry, and the hot dogs are going for 7 bucks each ......
