re: #154 HappyWarrior

I agree with this assessment of Bush. I think for many my age knowing mostly Clinton (I was five and a half when HW left office and have little memory of him as president) that the contrast was sharp. Plus the many gaffes. I mean come on people even if you liked Bush you gotta admit the Bushisms were funny. Bidenisms amuse me too so I am equal opportunity.

I have reaaally softened on Bush these days. I was softer on him than my friends at the time, and even softer on him now. I have come to the conclusion that I blamed things on Bush that were really beyond his ability to stop

I have hardened on the GOP, however :D
