This guy on face value represents everything a liberal thinks is wrong: christian fundamentalism in law-making, surveillance states, illegitimate wars abroad, tax cuts for "the rich", etc.

Yet they decide to make him a compelling authority because he is useful NOW in battling a contemporary nemesis.

Talk about putting your values on a shelf.

And W himself.... If I were him, I wouldn't give the media anything....they trashed him unlike the media has ever trashed another wartime prez in history. The soldier death counts on the bottom corner of primetime news shows every night from 2003 to 2007 was a sad spectacle. I don't know how he has it in him to forgive these people.

nothing more rational than believing the intelligence reporting of a President you accused of using false intelligence to start a war...for about a decade

It's like they think conservatives will suddenly agree with them if George W. Bush does. W didn't end his term as one of the most hated presidents of all time just because democrats didn't like him. He betrayed his base big time. Even if we still think he'd be a cool guy to drink a beer and watch a Rangers game with, he was an absolute traitor to the conservative cause with programs like TARP, No Child Left Behind, Medicare Part D, and the Patriot Act.

I imagine I feel the same way about W that most democrats feel about Jimmy Carter. He was a nice guy, but a terrible terrible president.

No more embarrassing than the 180 you sheep have used to call every republican you supported three years ago Cucks because they don't agree with your God Emperor.

Both your major parties suck arse.

Oh wait no I’m not. he only calls out the right on here.

Maybe W stood still and the party moved right?

He's not used in arguments by liberals because he's an authority to libz but because he's got some cred with cuckRINOGOPe's.

Talk about role reversals, who here voted for him but wouldn't admit it today? And I'd guess a good 90% of those old enough on this site voted for him.

Yet y'all vilified him as literally Hitler too. Imagine that. It's almost like the left is disingenuous and no matter who the opposition is they are Hitler.

The left has gone so far left the can't even see the fringe.

I am beginning to see the people who have nothing other than “both parties” are as useless as Dems.
