Now Bush "Can Do No Right"---beginning of the teardown?????
Discussion on CNN yesterday----the subject was the re-emergence and comebacks of Bill Clinton and Donald Trump (they are saying Clinton IS starting a comeback). The group was discussing why this happens to men like this and it was pointed out that after a period of time away from the public, the public tends to remember the good and forget the mistakes, etc. Then someone made a remark about the fickle public and said "before Bush could do no wrong; now he can do nothing right"! And then a person said something I've said to friends and family for two years now: The American people have a way of building public figures up and then tearing them down. Exactly & Amen. Just look at movie, tv, rock, sports stars. We love and exault them and then we attack and tear down. I guess it's sort of a syndrome where we believe we can be like them and then they become something to hate that we can blame for our problems (i.e, the tearing down of Clinton by Limbaugh, etc.). Well with the backdrop of worry about jobs, healthcare, retirement in this nation, folks, the time could just be ripe to rip George!! I think it might be starting. Clarke told us it was alright to. It could be that all that propaganda the whores have been unleashing on us for three years to build the "warrior king" image has hit it's high and now the nation wants to burn it to the ground.

1. 'The American people'? Say rather the media have a way of doing this
The media love a good kingmaking almost as much as they love a good pauperizing. Pauperizing a king is the most fun, but kingmaking a pauper is the next best thing for them.

2. WHat sort of good did Trump do?
He was human filth.

He is human filth.

Bush was human garbage. Bush is human garbage. He didn't use greatness to come into power. It was given to him - via a "supreme" court, and later a disaster he helped to create. (9/11)

How can you tear down someone that's never been up there for a satisfactory period of time? * started low, got high because of LIHOP/MIHOP, and his numbers started to drop almost instantly afterwards - again!

3. Sorry, but it's not the public. It's Bush.

He got a free ride after 9-11. He used it to push through an invasion/occupation of Iraq, and to loot the US treasury for his corporate buddies.

The mess has become too big to ignore, and now the public is waking up to it. They're not fickle at all.

They made the horrible mistake of trusting this fraudulent thief of a president.
