Why We Suddenly Miss Bush

Various polls report that George W. Bush in some states is now better liked than President Obama. Even some liberal pundits call for Bush, the now long-missed moderate, to draw on his recognized tolerance and weigh in on the Ground Zero mosque or the Arizona anti-immigration legislation. Apparently the erstwhile divider is now the healer that the healer Obama is not.

As President Obama’s polls dip, as Congress is widely disdained, and as the economy slumps, suddenly George Bush is missed. Why so? Let me list ten likely reasons.

1) The Obama record.

… snip …

2) Obama as Bush.

… snip …

3) Bush Did It.

… snip …

4) Who is the real yuppie?

… snip …

5) Michelle is no Laura.

… snip …

6) UN first; U.S. second.

… snip …

7) Who will criticize the critics?

… snip …

8. Bush’s disasters proved not quite disasters.

… snip …

9) Bush was not corrupt and ran an especially ethical administration.

… snip …

10) Bush was authentic.

… snip ….

And # 11?

Bush for all his faults wasn't STUCK ON STUPID.
 
What a remarkably idiotic and out of touch opinion piece, lacking in any context or factual support. I assume you posted it so we can all mock its delusion mental masturbation?

ETA: from the article
It is a uniquely American trait to shun whining and petulance.

my irony cup runneth over. In addition to the opinion piece itself being a giant whine-fest, the author is apparently unfamiliar with reality TV or talk radio.

Bush who?

Oh, you mean VANNEVAR Bush! Of course!

Well certainly, his original and amazingly prescient thinking is sorely missed. What with inventing the precursor to the Internet (the memex) as early as 1946. Of course, as science advisor to the president, his input was always noteworthy.

He...IS the "Bush" you are referring to, right, BaC? Because we wouldn't want to think you are just a troll, now, would we... :rolleyes:

Yes, he was. The little moron still thinks his tax cuts were a good idea.

As for your popints:

1. Obama has not tried to start another war of choice, nor offered to extend more tax giveaways to the people who screwed up the ecconomy.

2-3 not worth it

4. Michelle is brighter and better-looking.

5-7 Blahdi-blah, blah.

8. Iraq was a total disaster and the signature combat would from that conflict leaves hundreds of people with an effective mental capacity slightly lower than the Shrub's. Oy!

9. Not corrupt? He sold the Department of the Interior to Big Pollution. And don't forget his dawg Kenny Boy. Your concept of ethics is badly impaired.

10. He was an authentic punk and an untreated disabled alcoholic.

Don't forget the politicizing of the DOJ, the outing of Valerie Plame, paying off dittohead "journalists" to write flattering stories, etc, etc.
 
Instead of choosing, which implies getting several viewpoints and deciding among them, some people are being sheeple, letting others decide for them. Being vessels or conduits instead of originators. Allowing thoughts to pass through without once engaging any sort of critical thinking. You know who they are. They don't know who they are.
