That's what most do here, yet they are stilled called a racist by his most ardent supporters, which use the opposition to his policies to play the race card.

It makes me laugh how people can just overlook that part of his life.
Also, didn't he still use the "N" word well into the 1990s?

Simply false. Republicans keep making up this claim that they are being called racist for simply opposing the policies and its simply false. Other reasons, certain comments, birther garbage, etc is why some have been called racist, not simply disagreeing.

Why did I get the feeling before I opened this thread I'd find dems bawling, not about the guy dying, but about how mean everybody is acting towards them.
Move on, the guy lived a full life, did some good and bad things, and should have retired 20 yrs ago. They'll be another that'll take his place I'm sure.

Bush bottomed out at 20% shortly before Election Day. The polls at that time ranged from that low of 20% to 31%, with the average in the 24-25% range. He increased slightly in the few weeks prior to him leaving office, and ranged from 24-34% with the average being around the 29% mark.

That puts him ahead of Jimmy Carter.

But since about 75% of the media was anti-Bush, I'm not surprised at his approval rating numbers.
