Not that 'War on Terror' did not say it best! But we have so many Bush apologists on NP.
I just started thinking about how much the last 6 years have sucked, and a list appeared. There is a lot left to spin.
Like say, two wars, an endless war, thousands of international civillians killed, thousands of soldiers killed, zero money for health care, zero money for veterans, zero money for education, and one of the worst environmental records to date.
Endless corruption & scandals, a crumbling VA system, the loss of our own civil rights, the destruction of everyone else's rights, the Patriot Act, rising interest rates for students, a huge gap between the rich and the poor, stolen debt relief. Holding citizens without trial or due process, spying on Americans , a return to a divided America, a disgusted world community.
Oh, yeah, and the complete mis-managment of America's worst natural disater, perhaps those images of drowning & stranded people in New Orleans floated out of mind.
Let us not forget the huge debt, endless debt that my children and their children will be facing. The loss of National Parks, and national treasures.
The continued attack on our friends and neighbors. The destruction of church and state. The loss of American Diplomacy, the detaining of immigrant families.
No need to go on, really. Of course there is plenty more, and when it is all said and done the top one percent will have made one hell of a killing. But you can always spin history when you have faith.
