Yea, because a meaningless war that's killed thousands and created even more instability in an already hostile region that hates the US is nowhere near as bad as having a black president who's still yet to "convert American to socialism" like so many rightiess said he would have.

The war that your liberal congress members voted to send them to.

Get your fact correct, congress sent them to war, not Bush.

Hostile region, then why the hell is the socialist freak Obama screwing up Iran?

To my count we have now lost over 100 brave soldiers under Obamas watch in his short time frame. I thought he said from day one he would make getting our troops out of Iraq a top priority. Guess not, he is out eating 300k dinners and eating ice cream cones instead of working on getting out of Iraq.

So far in my lifetime, nothing has been as worse as having Obama as President.

The biggest mistake in American history. EVER!

If only Poppy Bush and his buddies could have done something to bail the fool
out, like they did with all of his business failures. What's amazing is the utter
obsession that the RW has with opposing anything that he proposes. They
pretend to believe he's dumb, because they can't understand nuance and
are so used to having a liar in the WH that his usual candor scrambles their
brains. It was a great day in January when Bush left the WH; may we never see his like again!

President Bush was was genuine and unpretentious.
Every time I hear Obama's rehearsed artificial speaking style I cringe. Especially the abrupt ending of sentences. Like he's run out of room but still needs to squeeze in that last word. I get the feeling that he's very proud of that little oddity.

That dumber than dumbstruck look he gave sitting in the school room on the chair, when he was told 9/11 went down
Like he didn't already know LOL

Josh Brolin gets kudo's for portraying his dumb a$$ and he pretty much nailed it only they left out 9/11 which was really disappointing!

I'll also remember him for duping my family members into believing he was the candidate with the "Christian moral family values". Oh please!

Visually, I remember him most at Ground Zero right after September 11. I like him as a person. Had he not been President, I think if I met him, I would like him a lot. I like that he appointed blacks and hispanics not because he was trying to impress some voting bloc but because he knew these people before he became President.

What I didn't like the most was the immigration mess and that he signed just about every spending bill Congress put on his desk. Also, the drilling for oil should have started on September 12, 2001. We'd have almost 8 years under our belt and be reaping the benefit of that action, shortly.

I also remember the speech he gave a few days after 9/11. I was driving home that night and it was on the radio. I remember it being uplifting at a time when our country really needed it.

And I agree with your comments regarding the appointments he made. The funny thing is, when Obama makes the same types of appointments, they are hailed as historic, but when Bush made them, they were just business as usual.
