Why don't all Bush videos on this site have "rich kid driving his dad's car" as a tag?

I wonder how well neocon snake oil will sell in 2012?

Bush must have horrible hemorrhoids after having Cheney's, Wolfowitz's and Feith's hands up his ass for so long.

Very good commentary, especially towards the end there.

You can't beat people in an ideological war with military might. It was incredibly naive of Bush and his friends to think they could change the way an entire culture had been thinking, if indeed that's what he set out to do in the first place. Which he probably didn't.

Bush basically got the "eggheads" to do his homework.

I like his reasoning: Bush's biggest mistake was listening to some of the world's most knowledgeable and experienced policy experts instead of moderately-educated wonks like myself.

No, it was listening to Cheney, Feith and Wolfowitz. Weren't you listening?

Desidiosus - 2009-01-16

Wasn't Doug Feith generously described as the fucking stupidest man on the face of the planet?

I think you're confusing "the world's most knowledgable and experienced policy experts" with the Bush cabinet. Part of being experienced means having the wisdom to know when you've made a mistake, and the maturity to admit that. Except for Powell, no one on the Bush team had that. Cheney may have been involved in national policy for longer than I've been alive, but what he's gotten out of it isn't experience -- it's fanaticism.

Also: if you're president it helps to have ideas and, well, scruples of your own so that the most powerful man on Earth is not just being led on a leash by the decrepit old evil men who advise him.

The US's "most knowledgeable and experienced policy experts" are the rest of the world's "retarded neocon warmongers".

Udderdude - "some of"

Now, now. I wouldn't call you moderately educated.

You also might want to read that again more carefully, but thanks all the same.

History will remember him as the American Caligula, regardless of how shiny his presidential library is.

Didn't make his horse a senator, but did make his slave attorney general.

My kids and grandchildren will likely hate me for it, but I will make sure the next generations know that Bush II was if not our worst president ever, a complete travesty.

Five stars for comparing Dear Leader to a hermit crab.
-1 for Keith Olbermann's mannequin-faced outrage.

Bush Jr. is such an easy fucking target. It's pretty obvious he was propped up to sell this bullshit during his presidency and then play the (unknowing to him probably...at least pre-ball rolling) human shield afterwards. I'm all for calling him an idiot, but can we please get to kicking Bush Jr. out of the way and unloading on his fucking handlers?

Here's five for effort.

Well, that was surprisingly refreshing.
