WASHINGTON (AP) — In his farewell address to the nation, President George W. Bush is acknowledging that many of his decisions are unpopular with the American people. But he says there can be no debate about the results.
Indeed, a text of the speech comes with a laundry list of what Bush says are successes.
In the text, released by the White House in advance of the address Thursday night, the president says Afghanistan and Iraq have changed for the better.
Bush credits his administration for improving public schools, creating a new Medicare prescription drug benefit and finding more money for veterans.
What about the bad economy? Bush says his team took decisive measures to safeguard it.
The bottom line, Bush says, is there have been good days and tough days during his term.
On that, even his critics would agree.
(I just corrected two misspelled words in the Associated Press article. And these liberal idiots are considered “professional journalists”?)
President Bush made many socialist decisions to “safeguard” the economy.
Why are liberals complaining? Liberals should love President Bush when it comes to the economy.
Well, what goes around, comes around, and when President-elect Obama takes office, it will be my turn to disrespect Obama and give him an EPIC FAIL every time he screws up.
I cannot wait to be called a “racist”, too! (Will liberals dare call me, a Puerto Rican, a “minority”, a racist?)
Let us grade President Bush’s tenure:
Response after 9/11/01: A+
Afghanistan: B+ (The job is not done, yet. Victory is within our grasp, though.)
Iraq: B+ (Again, the job is not done, but victory is within our grasp. Our brave military will have to mop-up the terrorist bastards that are still hiding.)
Al Qaeda: B+ (They are still out there, however, they have been severely cut off from the outside world.)
Osama bin Laden: Grade pending. President Bush still has a few more days to find him and kill him.
AIDS in Africa: A+. Not even liberals can spin this as a “failure”.
Pro-Life: A+. Abortions have dropped during the past 8 years.
Economy: D-. President Bush inherited President Clinton’s recession, 9/11 and Enron screwed the economy, President Bush then cut taxes, the economy rebounded and the Dow Jones index went past 14,000 points. The economy tanked in September of 2008, especially with Bear Stearns becoming worthless, and John McCain lost the presidency due to the economy. More and more banks lost money, the auto manufacturers lost money, more businesses spanning several different sectors went out of business, Bernard Madoff ripped off the world (including his own sister) of $50 billion dollars, and now the nation is facing 7.2% unemployment.
Final Grade: B-
Those are the only issues I really care about.
Oh, wait. One more issue.
Pissing of liberals: A+++
Sweet.
