I did not expect this from G W B!
 

In my wildest dreams I never thought Bush would actually tell the American public he fucked up and knows he did. I had always figured he'd believe his own bullshit and expect us to do the same. Right now my Republican friends are calling him an asshole and a pussy for this.

GWB was a terrible failure of a president but I think his story is more complex than that.

I think he's actually a decent guy, he was used the the same way the republican party used evangelicals and blue collar Americans the past 8 years. That's the irony, the exploitation and pandering that put him in office is exactly what was used to betray him while in office. He was surrounded by people who gave him terrible advice. People who took advantage of him to get their own agendas passed and he ended up being the fall guy when it all failed.

As much as I don't like Bush, I do feel he was led into a lot of this shit, like the war in Iraq buy the Neocons. Then again, he was the one who choose them to be in his admin, so he holds all the blame.

Rumsfeld, Chenny and that whole little group of Neocons wanted into Iraq for years. Bush Jr and 9/11 were the right tool and excuse to do what they wanted. That whole little group should be strung up and hung for treason.

I always thought if a movie were to ever be made about Bush Jr's legacy, it should be named "All his daddy's men".

You think Bush fucked up alot, wait til you get a load of what the Messiah is going to do to the US.. You're in for a real fucking disaster.

I hope I'm wrong about that.

I must have missed that, when did he say that??? His farewell speech was pretty much him patting his self on the back for a job well done.

i do hope you're wrong too

T minus 5 years until bread lines :2 cents:

It's very easy for us to bash Bush. I'm not a huge Bush support, and I'm glad he's going. However, no US President in modern times have been faced with what he's been faced with.

Hey, plenty of people advised him against certain decisions.
Colin Powel even resigned because Bush/Rumsfeld wouldn't listen.

He failed because he was arrogant and made decisions for america in his private
vacum.

Bush chose to ignore the former head of the joint chiefs of staff during the first Iraq war(Colin Powel), that made him the fool that he is.

No excuses, fuck him. People died for his hard headness.

you're not...

a couple of quotes from Brzezinski, the Messiah topadvisor:

"It is also a fact that America is too democratic at home to be autocratic abroad. This limits the use of America's power, especially its capacity for military intimidation."


"... society dominated by an elite whose claim to political power would rest on allegedly superior scientific know-how. Unhindered by the restraints of traditional liberal values (founding liberal values like freedom), this elite would not hesitate to achieve its political ends by using the latest modern techniques for influencing public behavior and keeping society under close surveillance and control."

You don't hope you're wrong; you just want to be an ass and find a way to clean it up
if shit don't go your way.

You so hope Obama fails.

Find a way to clean it up? Why's it my job to clean it up :1orglaugh

could be less :Oh crap

Sorry but shit will go wrong. Book IT!

Easy to make that statment as shit always go wrong. Its how the leadership reacts and have a fuck more confidence in educated Obama and Biden over a very old man with fucked up judgment and a lady who doesnt have the IQ of my dog. Shit always happens.

I agree with you.
