[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 1401383, member: 18225"] Well, to be fair, I haven't blamed Bush for 'everything'. If you look back on my posts, I've mostly blamed the Bush administration, not Bush himself. Wolfowitz, Cheney, et. al. It may shock you, but I have a high degree of respect for Bush Jr. He was tenacious in carrying forth the doctrine of what he believed was true. I didn't happen to agree with him, but I respected him in the sense of how he followed through with what he personally believed was correct. But, back to the point, I mostly bring up Bush in these recent conversations to add a counterpoint to all the Obama-haters (I love playing devils' advocate). Most of the accusations against Obama, if you fuzz your eyes a little bit, are the exact same accusations against Bush. Funny, isn't it? For all the exact same reasons that the Obama-haters give for their dislike of Obama, they will 'like' Bush, in the exact same scenario or situation. It is what it is. [/QUOTE]
