How are people defending Bush? What good has he done for America? Iraq could best be described as a shitstorm. We are in a recession. He put America in monumental debt by making misguided tax cuts. Someone claimed that Clinton had a chance to kill bin Laden. That was debunked quite awhile ago. 9/11 did not happen because of Clinton, it happenned because Bush dramatically mismanaged his first 9 months in office. He resisted an independent probe into 9/11 because he was lax in his duties and let it happen. Bush has also limited personal rights. How can you defend someone who wanted the Patriot Act, which dramatically reduces the First Amendment's powers. While yes, Bill Clinton was merely an average President, Bush is up there with Buchanan (did nothing to stop the Civil War) and Nixon. Bottomline, this country is far worse off than it was on January 20, 2001.
