Since Bush stepped into office in 2001, I came to despise many of these Republicans for their failure to speak their mind, instead opting to join in on the groupthink of the party. This is great for solidarity, but horrible for… just about everything else! Whilst Democrats, Independents and cynics alike were debating, analyzing and producing new approaches, the GOP’s message was plain and simple: “Stay the course!” Well, look where that’s gotten us! I’m definitely not saying that the Republicans are solely responsible for the mess we’re in right now. But when it’s time to face facts, who’s been leading us for the past eight years? George W. Bush. A horrible leader.
The main problem with the Republican party is that they haven’t yet come to terms with the fact that the Bush presidency was a disaster. And they’re still defending him! Until they choose to do otherwise, the Republicans are doomed to be forever synonymized with his name. Not a good look, to say the least. I’m waiting for the day when a Republican comes along and says straight up: “The Bush Administration was an epic fail.” It just might be the day I vote for a Republican. Or maybe not.

They can't shit on him. They celebrated every little thing he did for 8 years. If they shit on him now, it's like they're shitting on themselves. It's just not gonna happen.
ReplyDeleteUntil it happens, Democrats are gonna stay running things unless they fuck up as badly as the Reps did.
ReplyDeleteWhile they aren't outwardly shitting on the W. Presidency, they certainly aren't trumpeting it either.
ReplyDeleteJindal had some veiled jabs at Bush-led actions of the past 8 years and (perhaps most damning for W.'s GOP legacy) the McCain/Palin ticket didn't even let him campaign for them!
With his support of bailouts at the tail-end of his Presidency, W. pissed off alotta conservatives—who are the base of the GOP. There's a reason the man left office with a 22% approval rating, and it ain't just cuz Democrats hated him! hehe..
The GOP is attempting to use Hip Hop to get more votes and to have a diverse party.You got Michael Steele trying to be as they say da man and you got this conservative rapper High Caliber who is straight wack.
