Well aren't YOU clever, eddie.
1. The 9/11 catastrophe crashed the stock market. That was not Bush's doing or fault.
2. The U.S. invaded Afghanistan and Iraq to topple dictators and free Kuwait. These were profoundly expensive undertakings.
3. George Bush was a consummate gentleman and he attempted to placate Democrats, an absolute impossibility. If you dismiss Leftists, they badmouth you in the most horrific and hateful manner possible. If you try to compromise with them, they badmouth you and call you a flip-flopper who can't be trusted.
It is a war between the Left and the Right. This is clearly shown by Antifa terrorists and Democrats insanely trying to oust President Trump by lies and pettiness because they/you lost at the ballot box despite Hillary outspending Trump 2 to 1, despite Hillary having all the support of ABC and NBC and CBS and PBS and CNN and New York Times and Los Angeles Times and virtually all media except for the hated Fox News.
