"the president who protected America from attack"
Well, when 9/11 was a CIA/Mossad INSIDE JOB with DICK CHENEY directing war-game exercises from the White House bunker, yeah, I guess he did 'protect" us, huh?
That's what ALL the LIES, FALSE-FLAGS, and TYRANNY where for, Amurka!!!!
ADVANCING that GLOBALIST/ZIONIST AGENDA had NOTHING to DO WITH IT!
I guess that means no false-flag terror attack for the next week at least, huh?
"The Bush legacy; From pre-9/11 to the economic meltdown, presidency leaves much for historians to debate
The following story was reported and written by Peter S. Canellos, Susan Milligan, Scott Helman, and Sasha Issenberg of the Globe staff.
WASHINGTON - With two overseas wars and a potentially catastrophic economic downturn, George W. Bush is leaving office with some of the lowest public-approval ratings and worst assessments from historians and political scientists of any chief executive.
But academics, while echoing many of the criticisms, also note that Bush's presidency won't be an easy one for future historians to assess. While most unsuccessful presidencies, such as Jimmy Carter's and Herbert Hoover's, involved presidents who were considered captives of events, unable to muster effective responses, Bush's was one of bold strokes that, for better or worse, will be debated for a long time.
From his precipitous decision to invade Iraq to his order giving wide latitude to CIA interrogators of terrorism suspects to his demand for $700 billion to shore up financial institutions, Bush's presidency has been one of strong actions followed by equally strong - and in some cases even stronger - reactions. And at times, Bush's combative personality - some would call him arrogant - helped spark the backlash....
***********************
Bush himself has professed confidence that his decisions will be viewed more favorably over time. He can take some comfort in knowing that low popularity when leaving office hasn't always portended a poor historical reputation for presidents.
Harry Truman departed with very low ratings, but his performance has been viewed much more favorably by historians, largely because his vision in key areas such as containment of Communism was borne out over time. Lyndon Johnson also ended his presidency with highly unfavorable ratings and presiding over a deeply unpopular war. But the civil rights bills he pushed through Congress helped transform American society into one that, 40 years later, was ready for an African-American president.
Meanwhile, Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge were very popular in their times, only to have their legacies as purveyors of peace and prosperity diminished by the Great Depression. Like Truman, Bush will be defined by actions that defied the usual ideological analysis.
Translation: looking back, you are gonna miss Georgie-boy! Those are going to seem like the good old days, America -- and you damn fools think it is going the other way because of Mr. Change?
A self-professed fan of small government, Bush nonetheless expanded Medicare and injected the federal government into education to a greater extent than his Democratic predecessors, amid a huge increase in federal spending and deficits. And while a skeptic of international cooperation in foreign policy, he expanded America's humanitarian role in the world, especially in Africa.
Oh, this stuff makes me want to puke!
Yeah, forget the MILLIONS DEAD in WARS of AGGRESSION and the TORTURE -- as well as turning Africa into a shit hole of pain, suffering, death, and experimentation. Just because the MSM doesn't tell you that doesn't mean I won't)!!!
But his most significant, and most debatable, legacy will be in national security.
There, the man who once vowed to pull the United States back from the world chose to fight terrorism by taking on rogue states in the Middle East, a deeply controversial policy that is likely to remain so. And while some people view Bush as a strong leader, his national security efforts were coordinated by his powerful vice president, suggesting that Bush was disproportionately under the influence of Dick Cheney.
In some areas, Bush's reputation could also depend on his successor, Barack Obama. Poor oversight of financial institutions by Bush's administration may well tarnish his economic legacy, even if conservatives continue to celebrate his tax cuts. But if Obama accelerates Bush's financial bailout efforts - as he has indicated he will - and the country emerges quickly from the economic downturn, it could somewhat mitigate the damage to Bush's reputation.
Likewise, if Obama builds on Bush's homeland security programs and there are no additional wide-scale terrorist attacks, Bush could be remembered the way he wants to be: As the president who protected America from attack....

"Bush calls for compassion in GOP
WASHINGTON - President Bush called for a "compassionate" Republican Party and warned against the GOP becoming "anti-immigrant" in one of his last interviews as president, defending his vision of the party that has become unpopular among some Republicans....
Is this guy serious?
WhereTF you been the LAST EIGHT YEARS, you LYING, SPYING, MASS-MURDERING, TORTURING, WAR CRIMINAL?
Un-frikkin'-real!!!
Oh, I SEE, it was all in SERVICE to the NEW WORLD ORDER and its AGENDA, 'eh?
"We should be open-minded about big issues like immigration reform, because if we're viewed as anti-somebody - in other words, if the party is viewed as anti-immigrant - then another fellow may say, well, if they're against the immigrant, they may be against me."
Yeah, I guess that type of advice isn't useful when it comes to PALESTINIAN, IRAQI, or PASHTUN LIVES, right, shitter!!?
What a FUCKING ASSHOLE this MENTALLY-ILL JERK has become!!!!
