Did you ever see the movie W? It was pretty good. Doesn't make you hate him that's for sure. The movie made him a real person in my mind. Showed what he was like as a teen and in his 20's. A drunk. But then he got some ambition and rode his fathers name to the White House. He was not qualified to be President but he surrounded him with a team that knew what they were doing. Project 2025 back then was PNAC. Project for the Next American Century. They planned out the Iraq war, how to ban abortion and all the tax cuts they would give corporations.
You are right he wasn't involved.
No,
George W. Bush (GWB) was not a member or signatory of the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), but many of his key foreign policy officials (like Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz) were PNAC members, and PNAC's agenda heavily influenced the Bush administration's post-9/11 "War on Terror" policies, particularly regarding Iraq and regime change. While GWB wasn't in PNAC, his administration enacted many of its core ideas, showing strong alignment.
One things for sure is he decided he was the decider and he made some bad decisions.
And do you give a guy a pass when his buddies talk him into participating in a crime? And they make him the ring leader? Yes he was stupid and got duped but that doesn't mean he's not responsible.
