There's something happening here....

[kentuck]

What it is ain't exactly clear.

Nothing is going to plan. Thank you George W Bush - You have turned the entire political world on its head. Without your incompetence and destructive nature, it is doubtful that the people would have been able to see the good in Barack Obama. It is doubtful also that they would have looked so skeptically at Hillary Clinton, if not for you George. We all owe you a great debt of gratitude. You have shown us that we can no longer stand the stench of politics as usual. There's your own personal legacy George.

1. Interesting thought! Johnson and Nixon didn't help either. nt

2. Hillary's speech was good but

Obama's speech made me cry; his speech, touched me more deeply than Hillary's.

3. Ron Paul is still on national debates

Ron Paul, the racist gay hating Jew hating Neo-Confederate militant militia supporting "radical" who espouses the efforts of David Duke

Ron Paul

On national TV in the 21 century

Read those words again and think about that. There is something horrifically wrong. Did you see Romney exit speech? Holy crap they actually believe that nonsense. THAT shit is scarier than anything some unwashed hippy ever said back in the day.

6. And Dennis was excluded.

We've got some splainin' to do.

8. Oh absolutely

Ron Paul was on TV at the Reagan Library that WE PAID FOR just last week and not a soul said anything about it.

[thunder rising]

4. I really agree. Bush is the poster boy of greedy Republican Fascism.

And only from trying to find a high quality leader with charisma would we be voting for Barack Obama.

5. Every word of that post is golden. You get a virtual STAR.

7. Bush's historic legacy?

Made it painfully clear that the old boys' club was not in America's best interests.

edit to add: Not only has he killed the Rep Party for at least a generation, he has virtually burned down the status quo in electoral politics.

11. Hillary had a great line tonight: "President Bush has endorsed

Senator McCain's conservative credentials and I'm sure that will help."

lol

9. Bravo!!

10. Ya know, I've always held onto the hope that GW would be a catalyst to a quantum leap...

This could be the start of something enormous in our country, and in the world!

[kentuck]

13. See.

God has a purpose for everyone. :-)

[polichick]

16. It's pretty cool you're saying that...

My son had his first presidential vote in 2004 and was heartsick and disillusioned when Bush seemed to steal it a second time ~ so I assured him that something else was going on, that GW would be a catalyst to something big. It was a feeling I had, and I'm so grateful that it appears to be unfolding that way!

[kentuck]

17. God was talking to him...

But he didn't really comprehend what She was saying. :-)

18. :)

12. GWB -- your legacy has spoken and it said

CHANGE.

Congrats on that.

:toast:

14. And we can thank him

and those that put him in power for the hyper-partisan, win-at-all-cost, rules-are-for-suckers attitude that even some in our own party now hold.
We've been kicked and smeared and ridiculed for so long too many don't think there is any other way.

As a party we're like a beat dog that now snaps at any hand that comes near it.

Whoever gets the nomination and wins the election is not only going to inherit a broken government but a broken public as well.

You did a heckuva job Bushie!

[HughMoran]

15. I'm feeling emotional now

Something is up.

19. His incompetence does not earn my gratitude

He is a tsunami of low expectations, I will agree. And we have become quite united, against him. Still a debt of gratitude is a bit steep.
