Duh

To all those idiots who are blubbing "well, Dems wanted Bush to fail, too!": here's a news flash: THAT'S BECAUSE HE WAS FUCKING EVERYTHING UP.

Honestly.

Yup, that TV shot pretty much sums up the last eight years.

Speaking only for myself: I never wanted Bush to fail. The consequences were too great, as we discovered. I just knew that a guy who was not bright, not savvy and not curious and who was using religion and political dogma to make decisions would LIKELY fail. I knew he would fail. And he did.

I'm not magic, either. Lots of people knew he would fail, too. But I did say that I was speaking for myself....

With Obama we're in uncharted territory. There has never been an economic situation like the one we are now experiencing. If you use political dogma to make your judgement you probably have to conclude he'll fail, but surely it's far too early to know. He isn't even three months into the job. I didn't vote for the guy, but I think we need to see what happens with these policies over time. I think we can all agree he's smart. He just needs to be smart enough to listen to Harry Reid less and Russ Feingold more.

I agree with Julian. While I didn't like his programs/schtick, I didn't want the COUNTRY to fail (like it did) which is almost inevitable when the POTUS fails so miserably. And anyway, 'want' or 'not', Bush was failing at things LONG before any of us non-Texan liberals had any feelings about him one way or another..
