Why do people think it's funny/cool/trendy to take a stab at Bush?

Question

Don't you realize that everything you're saying is either unoriginal, uninspired, or just plain stupid? Ooh, wow, Bush is stupid, huhuhuh, I'm now popular because I said that, oh, and I forgot, "lol." No, Bush is not exactly a stellar president, but who has been? Clinton? Please, he did a whole bunch of nothing, with some pluses here and there, sure he was better than Bush, but that's not very hard. Reagan? Well, he was probably the best of recent times, but even he had many flaws. The last good president was also the first, George W. (that's Washington for all you idiots) If I need to explain why, then you haven't researched enough on presidencies for me to even acknowledge you.

Answer 1

They are just repeating what they have had beaten into them by the media... If you have no more sources of info, if curiosity does not prompt you to do a little searching, you will soon begin to repeat what you have heard exactly the same way several times each day.

PS: I would like 'StJames' to explain how the economy has turned to sh*t, or how Saddam is still a threat to the US or how our presence in Iraq at this crucial time is not to our advantage. I'd like to know if you think WMDs were ever actually discovered in post-Saddam Iraq? It is easy to take potshots, and every president gets beat up, but this is unprecedented. The guy is doing most of the right things.

Answer 2

I thought at first I might agree with you, but Cinton was a do nothing president. He took credit for an economy he did not create, he had the morals of a goat, and did nothing to fight terrorism. Honestly, I think that his games with Monica are what made him an icon for liberals, it wasn't his presidency. President Bush, while not a perfect president, has had to confront much more in his presidency than Clinton did, and has done a good job. I am not entirely sure I would call Washington a great president as he had no predecessor to compare him too.
I think those who attack President Bush endlessly are playing to an audience and looking for a reaction, much like a child throwing a temper tantrum.

Answer 3

People make fun of the current president because most people are very frustrated about the state of our country. The first Bush was fine but under W we have such horrible economics, the Patriot Act, and anti-American attitudes at the highest level overseas. Bush may not be responsible but he is the spokesperson for all this negativity. Due to all our acts being considered possible terrorist acts, we cant even protest without being arrested. Making fun is all that's left. The lst Bush was not W. Read the papers about the number of arrests of innocent people just trying to make a statement. Ridiculing Bush is stupid, we should be impeaching him.

Answer 4

The liberals are the ones who hate Bush. The liberal elite in this country try to convey that they are so full of compassion, but they are full of hate and venom. Blind hate and those unwilling to give him the benefit of the doubt is the reasons for the hate thrown at Bush. Liberalism is false compassion that gives people permission to be selfish and self absorbed. No one in liberalism wants to take responsibility for their own actions. The blame is always placed on society because it is unfair. We live in a dangerous world full of hate and Bush gets the blame for the wars we have to fight. A president is a human being that make mistakes like any other human. So the fact that Bush has flaws is not new. But the level of hate leveled at Bush, is a symptom of liberal insanity and closed minded ideology.

Answer 5

George was one of 4 great ones. Bush, Reagan and Nixon are in the same pot! Lousy presidents and criminals!

Reagan was found to be a war criminal for his participation in Iran/ Contra! Nixon quit and George should be impeached!!

Democrats may have had a few bad ones, but none like those 3!!

Answer 6

Forbes is honestly dazzling, while the fed includes the rescue of those buisnesses, all they are doing is, initiating the money printing press and digging a deeper hollow for our infants. professionals try to declare that the economic markets are lots greater helpful on the instant than it became in 1933, i urge to variety. ron paul sits on a economic committee seat in congress, he's been warning of whats coming to our economic equipment, he's tried to offer recommendations, and particularly he's been no longer something yet ridiculed by using media and politicians alike, by using the tip of november, human beings are going to need ron paul became nevertheless a candidate for the presidency, yet too previous due now, 2009 stands out as the 300 and sixty 5 days of the super super melancholy below the two candidate.

Answer 7

Ok, now, not everyone thinks its trendy. Since that's over with, Reagan did many horrible things, such as, jeopardizing peace in South America by supporting dictatorship groups, supporting apartheid (which the senate vetoed his veto to stop apartheid in South Africa by economic sanction, (also the only president to have that happen to them) proving his outlined racism, and the S&L scandal which he had a big hand in doing and has cost the American people billions because he did nothing to stop it until after the 1988 elections. Sorry but I believe your egoism has caught up with you. P.S. The fall of the Soviet Union can only be blamed upon their invasion of Afghanistan that led much of their military population dead and their economy dried to the bone.

Answer 8

are you as stupid as bush? take a look at the graphs of the US economy when clinton was elected, it was doing pretty damn good, then bush comes along and WHAM, you have no idea how much 9/11 and the "WAR" on "TERRORISM" impacted our economy, you have no idea how big our national debt is, you all think you are smart but the knowledge we have compared to the knowledge that exsists is like an atom compared to the universe. We all know close to NOTHING! GOT THAT SMART ***?

You like how bush legalized it for them to hear your private phone conversations whenever they feel like it? For national security purposes on terrorism im sure.....(sarcasm)

Do you know any troops from the war personally? Ever see one take off with a certain attitude and come back with the opposite?

oh and look at one of his plans to fix high gas prices
—-Ordering the Environmental Protection Agency to temporarily suspend clean-burning gasoline rules that force consumers to buy higher-priced gasoline blends during summer months.

GREAAT MORE POLUTION from dirty fuel so they can have a higher profit margin, wow so good for us consumers.....(sarcasm again)


Well I think I said enough, sorry if I seem like I'm getting crazy but this is the reality of today, the reality I experience.

P.S. type in failure on google and press im feeling lucky.

P.S. "George Washington smoked pot, and now we know pot is bad for ur health. What about the presidents whos pros outweighed their cons, like Truman. But Bush is definetly ONE of the not-so-good presidents."

Guess you havn't heard but there is no link to carcinogens in pot and tobacco increases cancer risk by 20X. I think the Bush administration got their little anti pot campaign into your brain, and trust me theres weird reasons why pot is illegal (I heard the mind doesn't program well under the influence of marijuana i.e.Brainwashing). George Washington and his wife grew their own pot in their backyard garden, there is nothing wrong with that.

Answer 9

I believe the President is doing a good job in spite of the left wing media (ah a hint). The media has been so mad that they haven't been able to control the voters of this nation, they are beginning their attacks early. It will only get worse, you watch. I'm seeing it everyday. They are doing their level best to turn Iraq into Vietnam. Watch how they manipulate their words. They are as dumb and predictable as Hollywood movies.

Answer 10

I agree with most of what ur saying, but u make it sound like being the president of the USA is an easy job. Who doesn't have faults? George Washington smoked pot, and now we know pot is bad for ur health. What about the presidents whos pros outweighed their cons, like Truman. But Bush is definetly ONE of the not-so-good presidents.
