Why blame Bush? Maybe because he managed to demand that Congress fork over a trillion to his banking pals or risk martial law within days; lie the nation into a failed multi-trillion-dollar war; create a Grand Canyon of wealth inequality; fly billions of dollars in bundles of fresh hundred-dollar bills shrink-wrapped on pallets to Iraq so it could all disappear with no attempt at accounting; ignore vast numbers of Americans without health care; prance around in a ridiculous costume on the deck of an aircraft carrier declaring himself a victor in a failed war; watch the collapse of the national infrastructure; let a major city drown; spy on vast numbers of Americans; give away hundreds of billions in no-bid contracts to buddies who electrocute U.S. troops with their shoddy work; destroy the ancient legal civil liberty of habeas corpus; inform the Amish that God speaks though him; institute the use of torture as official policy; deregulate himself into the biggest global financial crisis in at least 80 years; cause the irreversible decline of Americas world reputation and actually consider, with his vice president, ordering the U.S. military invasion of Buffalo, NY; failed to capture the masterminds who planned and executed the TWO terrorist attacks in the United States that he permitted to happen on his watch; and let his little pals at Enron create rolling blackouts in California before the whole corporation flamed out in massive financial fraud. Those are merely the first reasons that spring to mind, of course. There are many others.~ Dan Hagen
