Sail to the Chief
Sail To The Chief... Well, George W Bush's term is officially coming to the end... But it's been in Limbo for a long time... George Bush will go down as the worst president since Jimmy Carter... From the Economy, the War, Domestic Policy...Ronald Reagan's name is mentioned by Conservatives more times than you've heard the names Britney Spears and Paris Hilton in the media... George Bush came to office with the label of " Compassionate Conservative " and smaller government...well let's take a look, " Compassionate Conservative", Just ask the people in New Orleans about that ... I know we all like to keep government out of things... but We do have " FEMA" ... and even though reports of a major storm were well known ... "FEMA" was asleep at the wheel and the People in New Orleans are still suffering... Yes local government did drop the ball somewhat... but the federal government still seems "Dazed & Confused", the people in New Orleans will never know life the way they once did...Smaller government hasn't happened, some of it because of the "War" ... government has increased almost two times... Bush has borrowed foreign money and used it like an ATM...It's going to be time to pay up soon...Going from a surplus when he took office ... to the biggest deficit in American history...was he well served by his advisors when it came to the Iraq war...no. Donald Rumsfeld was told over and over again there weren't enough troops on the ground in the Middle East... Of course there's an argument that can made that we shouldn't have gone to war in the first place... But not until he was ready to leave office did the "More Boots" on the ground go into effect... Then there was Bush's infamous "Mission Accomplished" speech, That was bad information...Bush has spent over 430 Billion on the war with no end in sight... Scandal was supposed to be something a Bush administration was supposed to end after eight years of the "Clinton" scandal riddled term...But between the Scooter Libby, Karl Rove, Alberto Gonzales, Mark Foley , Bush ranks right up there in Scandals... The only strengths of Bush's time in Office were his Supreme Court appointments... Sam Alito and John Roberts...but even that was tainted by his second nominee Harriet Miers... someone who had no Judicial experience or experience in Constitutional Law she was un-qualified...conservatives and liberals both came down hard on this nomination ... Economic growth has come to a stand still under this Bush administration... to the point that we're now in an economic recession...The United States’ world standing has gone completely down ... and the respect around the world is at an all time low... It has gotten so bad Democrats don't even spend time attacking him... Republicans don't mention him...he's the "Stealth" President ...he's the invisible President...both parties just want him to leave......You've haven't heard a Republican candidate say , I want to continue the Bush policies"... The old political saying, "Are you better off now, then when I took office"... Bush doesn't want to hear America's answer to that... The Republican party is in shambles... and left in worse shape than when he came into office...Bush isn't only a lame duck president he's been a "Lame" President... I voted for Bush... I'm ashamed of the "Job" he's done, the way he went about it and the "Results" he's gotten... George W. Bush's eight years in office has made America... "The Biggest Loser".
