I was under 18 when Bush was president.
So how bad was it, really? And how does it compare to Trump so far?

Take all of the bad things about Obama's presidency and cut them in half. He half the scandals, bombed half the countries, generated half the debt etc.
Same shit, different zog pile
Obama without the cultural revolution.
also 9/11
It was bad.
Do you have any idea how much Bush's wars cost us? I don't think your pea brain can comprehend dollar amounts that high.
It's your job to spy on your neighbors,
#1threat any who had been militarized
#2 religious fanatics i think 3 was domestic abuse anyways terrorist were way down the list, wasnt into tv or politics then
The Patriot act
Globalists gonna global
Really? GB and friends orchestrated the biggest crime on US soil in history with 911. Every president since JFK has been a shoe-in for the NWO with the exception of Trump. Bush set the stage for Obama and Cinton
Bush was told multiple times by multiple different governments that a terrorist attack would take place in the United States and he did nothing.
That alone should tell you all you need.
But other than that, he ran a campaign for peace. Stating that our foreign policy will be peaceful and then he decided to unleash war across the entire Middle East.
Not to mention the (((PATRIOT))) Act
fuck obama but trust me, if you had to name one president that destroyed your country the most it would be g.w. bush
this. bush's wars were way more expensive. in addition, the iraq war left 4500 US soldiers dead and another 32k wounded and countless of your veterans are now insane. obama's wars weren't shit compared to afghanistan and iraq in terms of adverse consequences to the US
Fuck off, this was the only good quality if that niggers.

must have been pretty bad. It created the ironic contrarian/ anti-establishment attitude of Sup Forums, which lead to the nazi larp clusterfuck it is today
His statesmanship was fine - if he hadn't started two foreign occupations it wouldn't be so bad. But the impact of the Iraq war will have repecrussions for the remainder of this century - utterly fucked. Expensive. Demoralizing. Permanent damage to our reputation on the world stage.
Basically Trump will fuck with the America's reputation and the reputation of the office of the president for a long long time - but nothing could have been more destructive than the Iraq war. Unless Trump invades Korea or some shit, it's hard to imagine him actually being worse than Bush II.
>So how bad was it, really?
His first few months was a lot like Trump's really
9/11 happened and he went full crazy, along with America
>. It created the ironic contrarian/ anti-establishment attitude of Sup Forums, which lead to the nazi larp clusterfuck it is today
Ironic considering Trump is literally Bush's third term.
He was pretty damn funny at least.
george bush is that guy you can trick on the playground into fighting someone because they thought a nerd threw a rock at his head, but it was actually thrown by his friend hiding behind the bushes and laughing
he was essentially the same thing as what obama was and what hillary would have been, Hillary just would have picked the ball up when it was time to sling some nukes.
Image his support base being the same type of oblivious as Hillary supporters and while the jews laugh as they bathe in money and blood
As President, Bush attacked the Twin Towers
As President, Trump is attacked by Bush
It was the cultural "anti Bill Clinton", but it was also anti-Republican. Government (DoD) contracting rose to an all time high, creating jobs, but it also massively increased our deficit. He bailed out banks. His administration/cabinet had foreknowledge of 9/11, which ended up becoming a segue into Iraq and Afghanistan resurgence. WMDs were never found in Iraq, and we're still in Afghanistan (this one is more complicated, though). He was a horrid orator, surrounded himself with liberal legal counsel, and generally was seen as a "fuck about do nothing".
I still voted for him, twice, because the alternatives were fucking god awful. Obama, in many ways, was "W" part 2 as an extension of many Bush policies when it came to economics.
Put it to you this way. The straw that broke the camel's back for many was the bank bailouts. Neocons devastated this country in some ways, and keep it on life support in others. Mostly, we became way more subservient to Israel and their ME agendas.
At least he was likeable.
Bush was worse than Obama.
Wrecked the economy on purpose to avenge his father.
Republicans also used to respect the FBI
It wasn’t as bad as the mainstream media claimed it was. Not even close. The two things he did that most people have legitimate disagreements with were invading Iraq and cutting taxes while going to war. That drove the deficit way up and Iraq is still a mess. The left pinned the 2008 recession on Bush but never cared to explain how that happened because a closer inspection of it revealed that the housing bubble was created by Clinton regulations that forced banks to give loans to people who didn’t qualify for them. After 9/11 we were also a lot safer under Bush. We didn’t have constant terrorist attacks like we did under Obama.
He openly supported Obama, backpedaled on criticizing a sitting president with Trump, openly endorses Hillary and probably did 9/11 and started this whole surveilence state and deep state coup attempting to destabilize the US, create and cause mass terror attacks, and garner his family wealth and power along the way. He's an evil man. He's a part of the wicked establishment trying to kill America and Americans. This bastard and his people are behind this entire mess.
/thread
It was crazy seeing the leftist media including reddit go from "BUSH DID 9/11 WORST PRESIDENT" to "Hey I may not have agreed with him on every policy but he seems like such a nice and genuine person now that he denounced drumpf!"
Dick Cheney was VP of Halliburton and made $35 Billion off of the Iraq war, the ex CEO or VP of Enron became that of Halliburton and his servers implicating him in one of the largest mass thefts in US history were destroyed when a controlled demo was clearly carried out on Building 7 of WTC on 9/11/01. The resulting war(s) destabilized the middle east causing a mass exodus into Europe and the US, creating a security threat for all nations accepting "Refugees" who are actually active sleeper cells gaining entrance to a country under false or misleading pretenses. The next step is all out marshal law in the US and western Europe leading to a massive 3rd world war. Not as bad as they say? Are you fucking kidding me you dirty fucking commie?
He lied Soldiers, Marines, Sailors, and Airmen died.
>I still voted for him, twice, because the alternatives were fucking god awful.
>Iraq war
Phew! Good thing most Americans are like you and did the sensible thing! The US is definitely a lot better off having crypto-commie islamofascist Soddamn Insane gone!
Because they are the brainwashed foot soldiers on the NWO. They're all stupid, or under mind control, or both. They don't seem to accept that they'll be killed during any sort of serious military engagement. I was hoping enough would get their asses kicked during the antifa riots that they would realize war is not for them. Just gotta watch for agitators man. Bush did 9/11, Clintons were in on it, Obama helped after, and Trump is hopefully stopping this. That;s why they're all trying to either kill or discredit him. Pay attention to Eric Holder. He was implicated in riots in Ferguson but Snopes put out a piece and said it was BS. I know for a fact it wasn't. The DOJ was paying gangs to riot in St Louis. and Ferguson. Remember the martial law blow-back then the resulting demilitarization of cops? Because they were creating a security threat and couldn't hide it. The Antifa riots were to make them feel like cops NEED all that military shit. All to create martial law and kill Americans. We were willing to stand against this a few years ago. Now were so divided, I know troops will fire on American citizens. They're creating an atmosphere to allow them to justify it. These people are all in bed together. The MSM just hides it.
>He's an evil man. He's a part of the wicked establishment trying to kill America and Americans. This bastard and his people are behind this entire mess.
but he paints and his fat whore daughter is on the Today Show and he's so goofy and relatable!!!!
it was great to see Tucker expose this neo cohen the other night
Fuck you're a moron
No child left behind is the reason we have trumpcucks
>people here consider obama on the same level of bush
this is what happens to your brain on fox news and breitbart
Bush could have been a great president, but he was too in bed with the neoconservative movement.
Invading Iraq was a mistake, deregulating the housing market was a mistake, the bailout, even though it achieved it's intended results, was a mistake.
Bush had the world in his hands and he blew it. He is far worse than Trump.
Trump is a buffoon, but so far he hasn't gotten people's kids killed for no reason.
Let's be blunt - he was the single worst president in modern US history. Worse than Obama. Worse than Jimmy Carter. He took office in January 2001, a financial and social inflection point for the country. At that point in time, America needed strong financial and demographic leadership to maintain its position into the future. At that point, there was actually still time to budget properly in anticipation of the Baby Boomer retirement wave that begins in earnest between now and the late-2020's.
And he completely fucked it all up. He promised to pay down the national debt, but ended up doubling it. He promised to "reform" the country's corrupt financial institutions after Enron/Worldcom/etc., but ended up bailing them out. He promised to address domestic problems like social security financing, but wasted all his time on useless foreign wars like Iraq. He promised to be a leader, and he was - he led us straight to hell.
Double the Obama debt, double the Obama scandals
Anyone who defends Bush is a spider. Anyone who defends Bush using Obama as a measuring stick is trying to deflect. Obama was Bush Part 2.
We don't forget: 9/11, Anthrax, Iraq War, 2008 economic meltdown.
>Terrorism got worse after Bush
Isn't that because Bush destabilised the ME and created terrorists?
Really? Because Bush openly supported Obama saying it was bad for an ex president to criticize a sitting President, is seen regularly with close friends, The Clinton's and openly criticizes Trump. He has clearly demonstrated that his allegiances lie right where those who would feel that way think they do. You don't seem to keen on the whole thinking thing. You seem to like to spread fucking bullshit and try to act like we don;t know what the fuck were talking about. Just google it ya fucking shill.
Confirmed
Easily the worst in modern times.
And funded them along with Obama and the deep state.
>be complete shit president
>endorse bad president
>suddenly you are now equal to bad president
>also dared to criticize cult of trump oh no
Likeable Satanist and rapist
He was a moron who bailed out banks, caused the great recession, and drove up the deficit to finance wars in Iraq.
There was a lot of political humor about him back then.
youtube.com
anyone remember this show?
Bush pls. If anything, it was a lot WORSE, because the media gave Bush a pass on shitty policies that they supported - his attempts at amnesty, No Child left Behind (a pricey failure that his own party repealed in 2015), Medicare D (a massively expensive prescription drug plan that banned the government from negotiating drug prices), and various other disasters. And did you forget Bush's "ownership society" and his buddies like Angelo Mozilo? AKA, his "give every beaner a mortgage" strategy? Look back at the news from 2005 - Bush was literally CELEBRATING the fact that a trillion dollars in mortgages had been extended to "under-served" populations.
Not to mention allowing Afghanistan to become one the world’s largest opium producers in the interim.
this
>Be shit president
>Endorse shot president who openly stands against everything you ran under
>Suddenly decide to begin criticizing a president who isn't in the cult of the NWO.
>Have shills who still think were all as retarded as them.
You're out of your element Donnie. Just shut the fuck up.
Bush is just a straight talker
Remember when the guy just happened to be out at some school somewhere reading a book to children when he just "happened" to hear the news that the Twin Towers fell?
I'm sure this was the only time in his life when he ever did this for a classroom full of kids.
Then of course after the 9/11 "attacks" it was time to go to Iraq... just because, you know, weapons of mass destruction, or something.
Bush Jr. was slow to react to everything. And yes, it was most likely on purpose. Remember Hurricane Katrina and how slow his branch reacted to that too?
He was also the vacation king of presidents. He would spend the majority of his time hiding out at his fucking ranch.
Where the fuck was Bush and the Clinton's on 9/11. Trump was there as a patriot helping the effort DAY FUCKING ONE! TRUMP is a true American Patriot. I can see how Patriots seem like a cult but we don't ingest the media brainwashing from the likes of AHS you fucking leftist commie fuck. youtube.com
So he had 8 years to change bad regulations, while most likely getting several warnings from economic experts and then doing jack shit until the whole Ponzi scheme collapsed and he isn't at fault somehow ? You stupid asshole
If Trump is a straight talker, and Bush is a "straight talker" who did 9/11 & Anthrax & the Iraq War, then ... I'll choose Trump
Same thing with Trump but with 1/2 the amount of sperg-outs from the left. Trump has literally had twice the amount of libshits Dubya had, at least that I can remember
t. Guy who voted in 2004
Twisting words to allow for assumption of motive only works for the ignorant and weak minded. He's a back pedling shill for the Establishment and NWO. He's just like everyone else. Like the cult of the left.
>Kiwi thinks he knows more about a country's leader than its people
stay out of our politics
Completely different. Bush was a globalist, just like Obongo. Forget the Republican / Democrat moniker when it comes to politics and look at their actions. Personally, I don't recall Bush saying a negative word about Obama, but he was throwing Trump under the bus in the first month.
Spider shill
He destroyed the country but not the culture. Obama destroyed the culture.
Trying too hard
>Where the fuck was Bush
youtube.com
He was reading a book to black kids at an elementary school. It was like a white chimp reading to a bunch of black chimps.
>911 really mastermined by towelheads
>Bush immediately removed to a safe location when 2nd tower hit
>flight 77 intercepted by combat-ready Andrews AFB jets
>Bin Laden captured alive or vapourised with a week
>immigration halted until further notice with extensive vetting put into place some time thereafter, Muslim countries need not apply
>Borders locked down, military guarded so noone gets through and long-term absolute security initiated
But you people elected Trump, you can't be trusted to be left to your own devices. You'd be better off if you were brought back into the British fold.
really mastermined by towelheads
Or so Lucky Larry wants you to think. Did you know that not a single Jewish person appeared for work that day as they were all told to stay home?
I liked him.
Just wish he had the sense to remove the troops from Iraq after they pushed their shit in and killed Saddam.
Then again, having Saddam keep the place in order and Iran in check wasn't a bad thing. But what can you do? You need an unstable middle east to breed terrorism and you need terrorism to reawaken the wests hatred for its historic enemy, desperate migrants and refugees help too.
Anyway, his heart was in the right place, but he's no Vladimir Putin.
good lord how do you forget Muhhamed Atta? cianiggers confirmed.
>So how bad was it, really?
had I know what comes after him, I would have loved this retard
I miss the funny bush compilations on yt from that time
You didn't read the rest (shit that should have happened but didn't).
>>"911 really masterminded by towelheads "
Shill detected
Kill yourself and meet up with Bush's Ghost Detainees. They'd like to have a beer with you
What about the media during the Bush years?
Do any oldfags remember if it was actually this bad? I remember seeing a lot of edgy tryhards teenagers comparing Bush to Hitler, and calling him every insult under the sun, but I don't recall if it was this open and this blatant, and involving this many mainstream outlets.
It's hard to believe that this kind of mass psychosis has ever happened on such a scale before.
America was a mistske
Sand niggers don't drink.
I think obama showed how the office and its "reputation" only matters to retards.
Whiter than you, Mohammed.
>What about the media during the Bush years?
>Do any oldfags remember if it was actually this bad?
It was almost as bad. Then the MSM turned around and started waving the flag for his Iraq invasion. I think there were two things going on, one, the culture hadn't gone as rabidly left as it is now, two, they had to get their war so they couldn't attack too hard.
>shoo-in
The housing market was OVER-regulated and OVER-funded you tool. Bush continued and ramped up the "houses for everybody" autism that started under Clinton.
youtube.com
I was born in 93 yet it feels like the bush presidency was half of my life.
Obama felt like it went by in a heartbeat.
Bush was a liar and a fiend that had the corporate media sucking his dick while he went 100 percent Zionist. Not a bad golf swing though, pretty compact.
he actually realised halfway through giving it that it would be bad if there was a recording of him saying "shame on me".
>how does it compare to Trump so far?
Not even comparable, desu. His administration set so many horrible precidents in terms of abusing executive order powers, abuse of FISA to allow warrentless spying on Americans, the Patriot Act, creating the labyrinthian DHS, turning a blind eye to the beaner invasion ("they're natural conservatives!")... Just to name a few things. All of this shit the Obama administration did that we're learning about now was mostly thanks to GWB and his inner circle's malevolence and stupidity setting the stage for this level of political misconduct to occur.
Obama doubled down on Afghanistan, but it was nothing compared to what Bush did. Furthermore the people that actually attacked us were in Afghanistan, we had absolutely no good reason to go into Iraq except for oil.
READ THE REST! Not closing the borders and immediately deploying troops to absolutely halt illegal immigration should have confirmed for anyone not brain-dead that it was a false flag.
I've seen most the 9/11 vids, but I've never seen one that left absolutely no doubt in my mind that this shit was a twisted fabrication.
All I can think about is the 911 call where the guy is pleading for help just before the tower came crashing down on him screaming bloody murder. The people who did this are going to die of old age instead of at the end of a rope as they should.
Meh GW was your run of the mill neocon.
Basically a democrat who is "against abortion" yet done nothing to end it 40 years later.
>I was under 18 when Bush was president.
So was I
>So how bad was it, really?
I don't know, how bad is stealing an election, blowing up the twin towers, pissing away American wealth, and spitting on the Constitution?
>And how does it compare to Trump so far?
All Trump has to do is have a pulse to be better than this stooge
That's a fair point. But at least the Iraq War was something worth getting worked up over. Bush was sending young men to their deaths for no real reason.
Trump hasn't done anything anywhere near that serious, and they're still treating him worse. I couldn't even begin to imagine the things that they'd be saying if Trump declared war on some shitskin shithole.
McCain is dying of cancer so one of them is going painfully.
>But at least the Iraq War was something worth getting worked up over.
You didn't read. I made it clear that the media was FOR the Iraq invasion
Better than the state of the UK. Or are you still salty?
