    what rubbish

    <<But in doing this you fall into the "Bush-is-an-idiot" bag of liberal miasmas>>

    But Bush WAS an idiot.

    Indeed, as it turns out, he was just about everything we liberals said he was. But I don't recall a single one of us weeping into the cameras a la Glenn Beck and threatening armed insurrection. And Bush suspended habeas corpus, tapped our phones, started wars that killed hundreds of thousands of people, tortured and left the country broke and in pieces! Obama just wants to give you health insurance, with dental, and save your jobs, and you are reaching for your guns, completely hysterical. What a bunch of babies.
