According to Bush apologists, everything bad that happened during the first 7 1/2 years of his presidency is Bill Clinton’s fault, while everything bad that’s happened in the past 6 months is Barack Obama’s fault. Awesome! ---

> [@Equipoise](#): > > Right wingers would poke their eyes out with red hot pokers before they’d admit to any major Bush mistake Actually, browsing conservative blogs as I do, you’d be surprised at how many of the loudest have at the very least looked twice at Bush, especially lately. He’s done and said a LOT that’s pissed them off. I wouldn’t be surprised if, at the end of Bush’s term, both hardcore liberals and hardcore conservatives look back on his administration in disgust for COMPLETELY different reasons. ---

Clothahump, you’re an idiot if you interpret Cecil’s response as anything but anti-liberal. ---
