printBarack Obama’s cringe-factor is sufficiently high for conservatives to feel comfortable about dusting off an equally awful man, and presenting him and his dynastic clan to the public for another round: George Bush.
From the Fox-News crypt:
* Bush Says Some U.S. Forces Should Have Stayed in Iraq, Hasn’t Heard From Obama.
* Bush 43: Dad ‘Offered Me Love & Humor’ in My Presidency.
There was lots to laugh about during the Bush years.
UPDATED I: One man’s meat is another man’s poison. GOPers gravitate towards the Bush badness; Democrats toward the BHO evil. However, “George W. Bush was Bad To The Bone.”
UPDATE II: Remember Bush’s BLU-82s? Iraqis Do. On July 16, 2003, I wrote that “Bush [I]s the poster boy for ‘the degeneracy of manner and morals’ which James Madison warned war would bring—the same ‘bring ’em on’ grin one can also observe on the face of a demented patient with end-stage syphilis. …” Bush is evil. Ask the tens of thousands of Iraqi civilians cut down by W’s daisy cutters.

Stephen James Bernier:
How is it when you point out the obvious faults of George W. Bush you are a “Bush hater”. When you point out the faults of Barack Hussein Obama you are a “patriot”?

Stephen James Bernier, You said it all. It’s the story of my “career.” My column’s syndication came to an end b/c I spent years heaping on that freak of morality and intelligence that is Bush. Yeah, a good guy who destroyed a country and a people including an ancient christian community. Yeah, he meant well. I prosecuted every aspect of his degeneracy, based in fact and analysis. And I do the same for BHO. But impartiality about evil has never worked in the US. You gotta be a partisan to succeed. As Craig Paul Roberts once wrote, after his own syndication was terminated for same reasons, the people want their perspective confirmed. The op-ed editors give them want they want; not want they need to be a moral, smart people. That’s all. But as Myron Pauli, who has been along with me for some of my bumpy ride, said, this debate is beneath warriors who’ve done all they can.
