In reply to the discussion: The Real Reason Republicans Have Been Sabotaging America [View all]ProSense
(116,464 posts)88. Well, that's
The real reason Republicans have been trying to sabotage Obama and the country is humiliation, personal humiliation. Their man, George W. Bush, was president for eight years, and their party also held majorities in Congress for most that time. And the result? Well, to put it mildly, they basically peed their pants on live TV with the world watching. Republicans cheered Bush as he cut taxes. They whistled and applauded when he strutted around on the deck of that aircraft carrier in the full flight suit. They were riding high...And then everything went horribly, horribly wrong. All on their watch. All in broad daylight...
...a great summation, and the very reason it's disgusting to hear anyone state: At least Bush...
Thanks for a great read.
Bush F'd the country up royally.
Worse. President. Ever.

The Christian right was blamed for the loss of the moderate vote. The CR's solution: rebranding.
