Bush Team Still Not Sure Who's Responsible For Everything Going To Shit
"Did we head into a tough period in the last six months in office? Sure. Was it a result of policies in his administration? I think there will be serious debate about that. We'll be debating about it a long time."
-Former Commerce Secretary Donald Evans discusses the record of the George W. Bush administration. Bush was president for 8 years and had a rubber-stamp legislature for 6 of them, but, hell, I guess we should wait until all the facts come in to really judge. Anyway, get excited for the second week in November, because Bush is back.
Did he have a rubber stamp on immigration reform? How about social security reform?
Nice try though.
I think the list of things he did have rubber-stamped would be a lot longer than 2.
Not to even mention the body count.
@buffalo66, i don't think there was enough political will/consensus for immigration reform and no one wants to touch the beast that is social security for fear of drawing the ire of the seniors (they vote!).
Let's get some perspective here, please.
I blame F.D.R. for Bush. And I blame Lincoln for F.D.R.
I blame all of this on Jimmy Carter.
@keisertroll: THAT GODDAMN SWEATER.
Seriously, though, I'm half convinced that sweater set back real public action re. energy conservation a solid 10 years.
My parents blame Reagan. For everything, mostly.
Donald Evans, Michael Brown and Ken Mehlman are all in the news this week. Who is orchestrating this revisionist deja vu so I can sue them for my lost appetite?
winston smith at the ministry of information.
He thinks only the last six months were tough? Criminy.
