4) He was poorly served by his advisors.

5) He was, and remains, an honest decent man.

6) He and his adminstration allowed his detractors and enemies to blame him and define him without fighting back at all.

7) Despite inheriting a recession from Clinton and the 9/11 attacks his policies managed to grow the economy.



Like most things, it's a mixed bag.



Finally,

Fidget is an idiot. It's true!
When measuring scandals and convictions based on those scandals, a remarkably clean administration.

Won't waste my breath replying to all your drivel but this one sounds particularly indoctrinated. How many attacks of that calibre have you had 'on your soil'? And how many subsequents attemps *that you know of*? Meaning how many occured during that president and how many during all the others????

Might I suggest as a foreigner that maybe that bastard came off as a distrustful devious liar (and yes - even murderer) to a lot of people outside your country that didn't have an emotional investment in trusting him?

Why not just try to get along? I can't break into my neighbours house just cause he has something I want. I have to sit down and get along and make a deal for it.
That's what the US has lost track of. The whole world is yours for the taking and if someone disputes you it's war? That's how it looks. When Bush first started saying you were going to war about 'weapons of mass destruction' we're hearing 'oil'.We're sure no smarter here, just a matter of
'You can't see the forest for the Bush.'

If this war were for oil then where is it? Where's the oil? We've not seen any of it here in the U.S. Sure gas is down in price right now but it's only come down from record highs in the past month and we've been at war for 5 or 6 years now. And it's my understanding that it's come down all over the world. I don't know why we went to war, Americans were given many different (and contradicting) explanations but I believe the "war for oil" cry is incorrect.

Does Fidget have some vested interest in what we do here in the US? She certainly seems to have all the answers to everything that's wrong with us and what we need to do to fix everything.

Thank God she's not a citizen - we have enough loons of our own.

It's kind of like democrats coming out of the woodwork with advice for how Republicans need to change in order to win.

No doubt because you can't.

Really? For years the idiots on the far left have uttered "it happened on his watch" therefore using the appli***ion of the same logic then it must also be true that more has not happened on his watch. Your logic cannot be true for one and not for another. Of course, you could concede that the "it happened on his watch" talking point was devoid of any logic whatsoever but I doubt you even grasp what I'm trying to explain to you.

Only moral idiots would come to such a conclusion.

Indeed it is incorrect and is just another one of those idiotic talking points pontifi***ed by the far left kooks.

Indeed. We have enough idiots here as it is. Perhaps she should be more concerned about her own country as it has it's own share of problems.

Ah Tally, I'm Sorry... Bush wanted to control the oil-producing regions, or at least be best-buddy. Tried to do it thru backing some & intimating others. That's not the way to get along and forge life-long friendships.. No other nation is as stupid as Bush would like them to be.

I didn't say he made a success of his intentions. Pretty obvious he didn't, eh? Best he did was to not get hung for mass murder under false pretenses.

and Oh for God's sake Savanna, I sure don't have the answers to everything or even pretend to. You & Boedicca provide the self-satisfied answers here. I just have a lot of questions and why not this's.

And yeah, the US impacts every other country, you know it, you like it.. I know it, it's part of life in Canada. So don't get all twitted when a foreignor is on your playground.

We know you don't have all the answers and we certainly don't either.

The thing about your posts that pisses everybody off is that you come over like a 14-year old who's just been handed free front-row tickets to her favorite rock star's concert .... and you're gonna get a backstage pass .... and if HE actually speaks to you or touches you .... you'll just DIE! Oooooohh! *Fidget squeals with delight and then passes out*
