Pretzel fight!
Bush was not a good President, but he was (for the most part) an honorable man. And before you say it... he did not knowingly lie about WMD's.

Obama is a whiny child President. He takes credit for any good events, which there really haven't been since he has taken office (although he will lie about those: a growing Economy, etc.) For the bad things, he blames his predecessor. Sure, there was a deficit when he was sworn in but he has INCREASED IT and to no avail. It's 18 months into his Presidency and he still blames Bush regularly.

Obama has contempt for citizens, as all leftists do. They use that to push their nanny state garbage. They think we're too dumb to think for ourselves when it is the ruling elite that has destroyed this country. I can think for myself, but I cannot destroy the country.

Obama is a classless dictator. He hinds behind a fake smile and an expensive suit, but he's just as tyrannical as Chavez and Castro. In theory, we have some protections that limit his power, but he is working around and weakening those as well. The guy is a fraud. Anyone who supports him knowing the full ramifications of his policies is a complete moron. Period. End of story.

Well, since you say so, we'll take it as fact. Oops, maybe not...

Bush knew Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction

Salon exclusive: Two former CIA officers say the president squelched top-secret intelligence, and a briefing by George Tenet, months before invading Iraq.

We could not be doing any of this, and unemployment would dip lower. The free market would eventually correct itself, but in either case I don't understand blaming Obama for a lack of jobs.
You must be an idiot! More spending???????????????

Jeb Bush's maturity is well beyond our man in the White HOuse. I think his comment is well founded.

Standing by him is what is the danger here. Just because he is in charge, doesn't mean he is right. We shouldn't stand by a man that is so toxic to our country.

As if Salon is the only source to make this public...yeah, right.

Ex-CIA director Tenet admits lies told on war

With the publication of his new memoir, At the Center of the Storm, released Monday, and in an appearance on the CBS television new program “60 Minutes” the night before, former CIA director George Tenet has become the latest former official to admit publicly that the Bush administration launched its war against Iraq based upon false pretenses and manipulated intelligence.

Rather than discussing whether or not to invade Iraq, Tenet says, the highest circles in the Bush administration were preoccupied with how to sell the war to the American public, using the deaths of 3,000 people at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon to justify killing tens and hundreds of thousands more people in Iraq who had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks.

Ex-CIA director Tenet admits lies told on war

It would not matter which source I sited and provided a link to. Those that will not admit the truth by now will never admit it.

Watch this if you dare...

Absolutely. Right on. He is, in effect, deceiving the masses.
