How many politicians where for it before they where against it? Some real short memories out there in this world. I paid attention and remember the drum beating and who was holding the sticks. Just because the media has revisionist memory dosen't mean we all do. Those who lived through it remember. I sure do and I'll always stick by George Bush. In my opinion he was one of the greatest Presidents of all time.

Revisionist? I don't care for him too much when he was in office. The only real thing I liked was shock and awe, the policing if afganistan and Iraq for 10 years was a failure.
His amnesty leanings on immigration were left of my beliefs.
Growing the govt larger than any other president, and spending more than all previous presidents combined was pretty left too.
Take the blinders off and put his fake redneck accent aside, and don't just latch onto the fact that he "whooped ***" after 9/11. Our military is not a police force or a babysitter for other countries, young innocent troops are strung out in places we don't need to be for extended periods and are being killed by cowards without uniforms, women and children. That's a travesty.
