to when Bush was in the WH? Did he suddenly become irrelevant to Democrats or was he just being used to emotionally manipulate people into voting for Dem candidates who had no intention from the beginning of doing anything about him or any of the other Criminals who destroyed this country?

I have to say, these last few years have been a rude awakening for many people..

This thread, during the Bush years, would have received hundreds of comments and recs.

I know many progressives have moved on from the party blogs, but I didn't think it was so many that a case like this would receive so little support from Democrats.
