Bush was just a fuckup all-around, it never ceases to amaze me how many people still deny that. I could care less how "get-er-done" he was, he was still the worst president this country has ever had. Instead of admitting his faults, conservatives would rather say "Well you blamed Bush for everything, so now we're going to blame Obama for everything, ha ha ha"

I'm not a fan of Bush, but he gets credit for WAAAAAAYYYY more than what he had real impacts on... Someone farted in an elevator one time and that was Bush's fault too. Still don't consider him to be the worst ever... just the worst recently.

Easy to say for this situation... However, there's no evidence saying that this couldn't have happened under Obama's watch... I mean, what has he changed that would have prevented it?

Doesn't matter... everything shitty that happened from 2001-present is Bush's fault.
