Bush Was A Monster/Disaster - No Democrats Will Say It

[Yallow]

Not a one.

Total silence.

Sad isn't it.

Like we are all supposed to forget what happens when Republicans become president.

What the hell is wrong with our party?

1. seems legit !

What the hell is wrong with our party? not a thing.

[Adrahil]

2. Bullshit. It's been said over and over.

But what's the fucking point now? We can't run against Bush forever. WE should run on the successes of Obama's Presidency, and promote our plans to continue our work on those things that need it (and that's a lot).

[aaaaaa5a]

4. The GOP ran against Carter for a generation.

And Carter wasn't remotely as bad as Bush.

[Adrahil]

11. The GOP does lots of things I think they should not do. NT

[Agschmid]

8. Yup.

[relayerbob]

13. I completely agree with this

Furthermore, if we are going to unite the country, we need to quit whining about the past and start working towards the future. There's a lot of work to be done and a LOT of moderate republicans who agree with us, whether some DUers agree with that or not.

Focus efforts on winning the House and Senate

3. the only thing I know

is Bush and Cheny should have ended up in the docket in the Hague as the war criminals they are. Pelosi and Reid did not help in that respect.

5. Democrats have the most progressive platform in decades.

Clinton is possibly the most qualified candidate in history. Most vetted as well and Republicans don't have a damn thing other than spin.

Unified like we haven't seen in recent history.

The Republicans are in self-destruction mode.

We are looking at possibly taking the house and senate.

"What the hell is wrong with our party?"

Nothing that should concern us this second. Unless of course those items I mentioned are the "concern".

6. how is this not bashing Democratic party members?

[NCTraveler]

9. Sometimes the bashing is comical to the point it should stand. nt.

7. At the moment we're busy trying to deter a Nazi invasion!

[aaaaaa5a]

10. Bush and Cheney gave us ISIS

Their ridiculous war distabalized Iraq. They killed 100s of thousands of people for no reason. They killed thousands of USA troops and left even more crippled for the rest of their lives for a mission that had no benefit to the United States. And then their status of forces agreement signed BY THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION paved the way for the terrorist group to gain power and prominence.

Bush brought about the worst economic collapse since the Great Depression. The Bush economy was losing a staggering 800,000 jobs per month! It's a number almost unthinkable. Under GOP policies the stock market crashed all the way down into the 6-thousands. It literally was a depression era time-period.

We should be reminding the public how bad things are when the GOP is in charge EVERYDAY.

[MoonRiver]

12. I've heard Dems say it many times.

[NCTraveler]

14. That is what I was thinking.

I have heard Clinton talking about Obama and his great work after Bush left us in a disastrous situation.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

15. rehashing 8 years ago is not a winning strategy. even if it is satisfying for the base

[JTFrog]

16. Wake up and pay attention. nt

[Tommy_Carcetti]

18. He was. He's also not running this election.

Nor is Barack Obama. Nor is Bill Clinton.

Right now the focus isn't on the merits or demerits of past presidents. That's neither here nor there.

[Ardoewaan]

19. Everybody agrees on that

even Trump and his recently turned anti establishment supporters. Why state the obvious?

[BlueStateLib]

20. The left gave Bush a big pass so he (Bush) would not interfere with their attacks on the Clinton's
