The Bush Tax cuts mostly going to the rich. The very foundation of GOP economic policy.
The Iraq invasion. Forcing a type of government on people who didn't care and weren't interested. In fact, the last poll I read about the Iraq government was that people in Iraq preferred a strong leader like Saddam, but not as violent and dangerous. Republicans always assume people want what we have here. And when they don't, Republicans feel they are just being ungrateful.
Jumping into a situation (Iraq) knowing nothing about the people, their wants or their needs.
The AIDS debacle in Africa. Denying funding for anyone who didn't practice "abstinence only". That one policy probably caused more cases of AIDS than helped.
Remember the scientists who left the Bush administration? The letter he got from Nobel Prize Winners? The disrespect from the Bush Administration?
Bush grew up with Reaganomics, with tax cuts for the rich as an economic policy.
Can you imagine his shock and surprise when every single policy he grew up with and had been taught turned out to be a total failure?
