Where are they now? Now the last three GOP nominees want nothing to do with it or him.

And Trump himself panned the war in Iraq and reminded everyone 9/11 happened on George W. Bush's watch.

So the Right looks back at one of their own administrations with regret.

On the other hand, Democratic nominees are still happy to receive the endorsement of President Obama and Hillary Clinton has even been nominated for president.

This makes you think what regrets the Right will have about a Trump administration?

And why should the American people trust a Party that regrets its own presidential choices with control of the nation?

Bush isn't running and this amounts to a "that was then and this is now".

What many realize is that our country has never been in such disarray. I have no idea where people have their heads that are looking at the Democrats for another 4 to 8 years of destruction that I don't think we can endure at this point.

Just say no to giving up who we are as a nation and everything we have and always stood for.

You seem to forget what disarray during a presidential administration looks like. Let me remind you:



You Righties sure know how to pick 'em.

I noticed that. I noticed here with posters as well as the daily talk radio hosts like Michael Gallagher, Laura Ingraham, and especially Rush Limbaugh. They all talk like the were never supporters of GWB or his policies.

Talk about cut and run.

Remember when the Right defended W. Bush's administration?
No, we don't. Probably because the neocons like the Bushes, that the right despise, ascribe to tenets founded by Bill Kristol's father, self-described "Trotskyist" Irving Kristol.

That's why Right Wing Radio was all over defending W. Because he was a secret Lefty. Right.

No right wing radio that anybody's ever heard of. Certainly not Alex Jones, Michael Savage, Alan Keyes,....

Why would they sing the praises of the "Read my lips, no new taxes," "voodoo economics"-deriding (and if you concur you only prove this point), population-reduction promoting Bush family?

I don't understand the argument here. The right understand that the Iraq and Afghanistan wars were a mistake but the left is still reluctant to state that the Syrian and Libyan wars were a mistake also?

Has nothing to do with the topic at hand. But just a note: Syria and Libya wouldn't have happened if we weren't drawn into Iraq and Afghanistan by the Republicans.

There was NO reason to get involved in either place. There is NO reason we are still in Iraq and Afghanistan. Bush screwed up and Obama made it worse.
