History tells a different story from the one you proffer. When Bush took office, President
Clinton had left a $5.6 trillion surplus, and when Bush left office, President Obama
inherited an $11 trillion deficit.
Bush's last six months almost lead to a Worldwide Economical Depression. Our largest
banks began to fail and the stock market took a nose dive because of deregulation. He
left our country on the brink of collapse. Let's never forget he approved tax cuts for the
very rich, which has never created jobs for the poor.
Who can ever forget 9/11 and Bush's deafness regarding the warnings? Who can ever forget
Hurricane Katrina and Bush's lack of leadership and failure to react?
He lied about the Iraq war, which has killed about 6,000 Americans, wounded or crippled
for life about another 40,000. He deemphasized the Afghan war that was focused on
Al Qaeda to do a poor job in Iraq. Of course, he placed both wars on credit
He okayed Gitmo, the most inhumane detention center ever created by man and
approved the use of torture.
The Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Tribunal Foundation charged Bush and Cheney with war
crimes and torture in absentia.
Oh, God, here we go again, diversion to Bush. Better take your issue up with the Treasury Dept because Clinton took office with a 4.4 trillion dollar debt and left it at 5.7 trillion so there was no surplus. Obama inherited a 10.6 trillion dollar debt that is now almost 17 trillion.
Your hatred of Bush is based upon a bunch of bs you have been fed by the media. Too bad that hatred has blinded you to the Obama failures.
The rest of your post is simply more BDS, Bush Derangement Syndrome, please seek help
