Fine post, as long as you never, ever, in your lifetime want him to acknowledge your correctness.
This is a hollow world here on SI.
Fools can remain those in perpetuity.

Frankly I think its liberals who have a Bush-filter.

"So you think there was nothing that Bush could have done about 9/11, even though there was an explicit report with the words "AQ, Airplane, Terror Attack, US" in its title?

....
And you equally think that there was nothing Bush could have done about New Orleans, even though there was an explicit report about it being one of the 3 most likely disasters that can happen to US.."

For example, can you imagine any liberal posting those sentences with Clinton substituted for Bush. Al Qaida, the 911 plot, and the NO levee situation were not things that popped into existence in January 2001.

"And of course it is just a coincident that more Americans have dropped below poverty line under Bush's watch than any other in modern times."

I don't know that that is the case.

"And you equally think that Bush has no control over the value of USD and the that his policies are not responsible for the nearly 40% drop of USD against Canadian dollar, its nearly 65% drop against oil, and big drop against EU or any other major currency or commodity?"

Most of that is related to energy prices which would be about the same regardless of who was in the WH.
