Unfortunately for you Bush apologists, his record will follow him through history. What he was responsible for, he bagged, and did it in a bad way. The hangover from the Bush damage is far from over and we're all living through it.

WWII ended 60 years ago. We still blame Hitler.

Vietnam ended 35 years ago. We still blame LBJ. That's how rsponsibility works.

Rick, George W. Bush will go down in history for what he is, a war criminal responsible for the deaths of thousands of American soldiers and hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis, and as the worst president in US history ever.

Obama is a mortal lock to wind up as our worst President ever; GWB will never have that albatross around his neck.

He believe in personal freedom, and that ambition is a very desireable and admirable trait, two things which our current President is vehemenly opposed to, and his words and actions have left us irrefutable proof.

What crime did he commit?

You can thank people like Biden and Hillary for voting YES to send them to war.

This keeps being said but not one of you Bush haters have been able to pin a crime on him yet?

Since you want to go there how about the millions of lives Bush saved in Iraq? Or do you just use one set of numbers?




Obama is a wimp and his lack of leadership skills is showing through.

Do not expect him to do much as he has a hard time making a hard decision.

A leader is something he is not.

I'll go with irrationality.

That's your opinion and you're certainly entitled to it. Having said that, I'd be interested to hear your explanation of what Bush has to do with Obama's handling of this issue.

That's an interesting take. Please explain in detail the war crimes of George W. Bush.

The worst president? I'd say that Barry is making a good case for himself to earn that title.....

Completely false.

In fact, GWB is making a grand comeback with the American people - two years of obama will do that to you.

Surely obama could speak up like he did in Egypt? Oh, that's right! He was throwing a 30 year ally under the bus in Egypt.
Oh stop the whining, many of the righties, not all, whined on and on about President Obama not backing a Tyrant that ran Egypt for 30 years and now you whine that he isn't more vocal in another uprising aginst a tyrant. I guess it depends on which Tyrant it is eh. No matter what the President does some of you will whine about it, so save your outrage for someone that believes you are being honest and care what happens in Lybia.
