Bush Ineffective

It is not enough to have done only two good things while in office. Bush is an inspired, realistic fighter against Islamic Terrorism, and he introduced tax cuts that grew our economy. After that he has not one great thing to his credit. More money has been spent by his administration than any other previous. He expanded the Department of Education and let Ted Kennedy write the Education Bill. He allowed Minnetta to keep our airports in turmoil by not allowing profiling. He allowed all airport baggage handlers and screeners to become unionized government workers. We now have the largest government we have ever had. Our southern boarder is not sealed as the public wants; further, he is involved in the conviction of two boarder guards that were merely doing their duty. When Clinton was in office his Attorney General was Janet Reno, she had her hand in everything and was constantly investigating every attack against the Democrats. People were afraid of her, especially after Waco. What does Bush's Attorney General do, nothing. Today, Bush urged Republicans to pass legislation that would save Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. This legislation papers over all the slush funds the Democrats have garnered from these two organizations. It excuses the politicians that were involved in the extreme relaxation of sound lending practices in order to give loans to unqualified people. Ther are some other things but I am too lazy to look them up. He can't leave office soon enough. I doubt McCain will do any better.

  • Good post. One of the other things you were too lazy to look-up is Bush's pro amnesty stand. He fought hard for his "comprehensive" immigration plan but thankfully congress didn't buy it. Bush has never been a fiscal conservative. In 7+ years he only vetoed one spending bill. Clinton WAS a fiscal conservative. He vetoed hundreds of spending bills and balanced the budget. McCain has a fiscal conservative record but he is pro amnesty like Obama. Sooo, amnesty IS in our future.

  • Oh yes, he put Bremmer in charge of Iraq after the initial fighting was over. He is the one that decided to cashier all of the Iraqi Army.
