Bush got a free pass for the Iraq war.

He didn't, also my original point of contention was with the statement that "Bush got a free ride", not "Bush got a free ride on Iraq".

Only in the last year has he been criticized for anything.

Not true. Even before the last year you had criticism ranging from web sites comparing Bush to a monkey, to attacks on Bush from Democrats to statements in conservative publications complaining about Bush's lack of control on spending or some other real or perceived fault of Bush or his policies.

He probably did get a few months of a real free ride and then a few months or even as much as a year of slightly softer criticism but that's about it. For awhile now (more then a year) the criticism has been very harsh.
