Creede, I luv ya', but you're pushing this with Bush. He is indeed the worst I've ever experienced and this little article fails to mention, oh, so many things.

On the foreign front, we destroyed Iraq, it's people (just ask the shoe thrower) not to mention the morale, not to mention our OWN soldiers morales. Did I mention Afghanistan? Ask the Taliban how much effect we've had.

On to the home front. Victims of Katrina might want to chime in, along with the fact that Bush had no problem keeping Greenspan on and then continued with Bernanke and Paulson. Who put Cox in? Oh, never mind. Let's not forget that 600 billion (and growing) on Iraq hurt the American economy just a wee bit, plus the fact that we're getting back a bunch of soldiers who can't find a job or are not able to even work a job after the hell they've been through.

A positive in all of this is people like myself and Pat Buchanan (whose even more conservative than I ever was) have seen the "light" concerning this "dark" administration. His articles in the last couple of years have been simply excellent and his understanding is a lot higher than mine.

Btw, I'm willing to admit I'm wrong. I had my doubts with Labwire and Dexter has proven to be a man of integrity, indeed. Bush is at the opposite end of the spectrum, unfortunately, as he continues on his merry way. I'll add that the writer should also mention some of his personal decisions starting with the callousness towards Karla Faye Tucker and ending with the pardon of Scooter Libby. How quickly we forget.

The administration has also done its job in making sure that Bush and his buddies can never be charged with war crimes. Well, I do agree it's very plausible he won't pay in this lifetime. The one positive was his determination to put in pro life justices. How qualified they are in other matters is open to discussion. Clinton's picks and George Sr's were far worse.

In any event, have a Blessed Christmas.
