Among other things, GWB appointed John Roberts and Sam Alito to the Supreme Court. 

'Nuff said. 

He tried to appoint White House counsel Harriet Miers. Not because she was qualified but because they were friends. That nomination was dead within a month.

I guess that's one (metaphorical) example where the right-wing is pro-abortion.

Oh man, appointing people because they’re friends, not qualified…what a fucking trailblazer!

This is where I have to disagree with you.  He has a different, more conservative political philosophy than you.  And that was normal and expected in a two-party democracy.  That is healthy in democracy.  But it never involved the type of bullshittery that Trump infected the party with.  And that shit has caused irreparable harm to our democracy.  But Bush/Cheney were not the preamble to Trump. 

He and W were liars on an unbelievable scale and created wedge issues to win elections. He's a certified piece of shit. The fact that the current party took it to eleventy billion doesn't exonerate him even a little bit. He played a massive role in creating the "socialism" boogieman by using the term incorrectly to an extent that it now has no meaning whatsoever except "democrats bad." I hope he and his bitchstain family all get what they deserve. I'll let Liz finish her work now, but fuck her in general still. Being a republican that doesn't like trump isn't brave or noble in any sense, it's the way things should be, I don't give anyone credit for doing basic shit. I don't reward my kids for waking up in the morning, that's just how it is and is supposed to be. Fuck the entire party, each and every one of them.

If 3/4 of all kids didn’t wake up one morning, you’d celebrate if yours did. Context matters.

Yeah.  Don’t act all high and mighty, saint stache.  There’s plenty of democrats out there funding MAGA candidates in their primaries.  If those assholes really are the threat I think they are, those people are MUCH worse than Liz ever was.  
 

A threat to the republic but yet you want to try to score an easier win in the general?  We should all be fighting the MAGA bullshit.  So get the fuck off your high horse.

I hope she wins over the others, still doesn't exonerate her and her bitchass family. I've heard stuff about democrats backing maga candidates and I don't believe it, or I think it's very limited and isolated. It sure as fuck isn't happening in Utah since the republican will win either way. If it's happening it would be in states where the dem has a chance and having a maga fucktard on the ticket is a detriment to the republican party.

You don’t believe it?  Lol

Its not even a secret.  It was totally blatant here in IL.  And it’s worse than anything Liz has ever done - if you really believe the magats are a threat.

Huh?

Democrats doing stupid shit insulates George W. Bush and the GOP for the last 20 years?

Criticizing the GOP for their bullshit is being on a "high horse?"

Don't lash out at others just because you're ashamed you supported them.

Honestly, this is a terrible fucking post and you should feel bad.

I supported them?  I voted Obama and was quite the fanboy.  I don’t think you know me that well.  I’m just pissed at one side trying to act holy.  
 

edit:  and if you’re trying to exterminate these cockroaches please, by all means, act holy.  But many D’s thought trump would make for easy pickings the first time and propped him up and now they’re doing the same in congressional races on down.  Fuck all of that.  
 

Lastly, fuck you for thinking I’m some card carrying R.  I’ve voted for more Democrat Presidential candidates in my life.  Clinton and Obama are the best Presidents in my life.

The hell they weren’t. Bush/Cheney foreshadowed Trump in a thousand different ways and I’ve pointed them out often. Trump just turned it all up to eleven.

The return of the Imperial Presidency, the promotion of the Unitary Executive Theory and the expansion of presidential powers. The stupidity and incompetence of the executive. The war on science. Trampling on public education. The politicization of government institutions. The tearing up of treaties like the Geneva Convention. (We don’t torture! Torture is only good at forcing false confessions.) Ignoring intelligence that doesn’t fit your policy. When Joe Wilson proved false their claim that Saddam Hussein was trying to buy yellowcake uranium from Niger, they retaliated by outing his CIA agent wife Valerie Plame. How Trumpian is that? Preventing gay marriage was a central plank on Bush’s re-election platform. Cheney didn’t support it but he went along with it. Bigotry was alive and well in the Bush/Cheney administration. And the Nixonian influence on both Cheney and Roger Stone is unmistakable.

That’s just off the top of my head. 

Preach

Dick Cheney is about 1b under Kissinger's 1a in my personal "most evil Americans alive" list.  Fucker should be rotting in an international prison somewhere.  He quite literally is responsible for more deaths than Trump.

W's re-election after everything America knew about him and Cheney  was the exact point I knew this country was fucked.  Of course that was back when the Cloak Room would neg  you to death for thinking that way.  Opposite of today.  Not too many people talking about a ledge. 

Cheney calling someone else evil is Stalin talking about stopping Hitler.

Fair enough. Then your reaction is even more inexplicable. Carry on.

For anyone doubting the direct line between the Bush 2.0 admin and Trump's, you may recall the use of the phrase "reality-based community" as an insult to people who made decisions based on fact. And, of course, in response Colbert coined the term "truthiness."

Quote

 

The phrase was attributed by journalist Ron Suskind to an unnamed official in the George W. Bush administration who used it to denigrate a critic of the administration's policies as someone who based their judgments on facts.[1] In a 2004 article appearing in the New York Times Magazine, Suskind wrote:

The aide said that guys like me were 'in what we call the reality-based community,' which he defined as people who 'believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality.' [...] 'That's not the way the world really works anymore,' he continued. 'We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors...and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do'.[2]

International relations scholar Fred Halliday writes that the phrase reality-based community (in contrast to faith-based community) was used "for those who did not share [the Bush administration's] international goals and aspirations".[1] Suskind has maintained his refusal to name the speaker, but the source of the quotation was widely speculated to be Bush's senior advisor Karl Rove.[3][4]

You guessed wrong.  Read posts above.  Anyone can go back to that sewer scat site and you’ll see zero posts supporting either Bush.  And I love spicy mustard.  

Anyone can go back and they’ll see zero posts on any topic from anyone.

that's not the badge of honor you think it is

This board is mostly moderates who hate Trump and the loons he has spawned. There is no consensus here (or in the country at large) for a wholesale embrace of the progressive platform. There is just no reasonable alternative at the moment

I'll have to take your word for it.  Not clicking anything linked to that place.  I am kind of sad that far right lunatic isn't posting to himself anymore from what you're insinuating.

That’s a little like saying you wouldn’t piss on Donald Trump’s grave because it’s linked to Donald Trump. You can safely click the link without violating your principles.

You don’t have to, of course. It’s up to you. But you might find it satisfying.

So I did, he dead?  Got damn shame.  Can we claim it back?

Only Donald Trump would immediately assume that the Purple Heart one his loyal subjects had just given him was probably a fake.

And only a fool would give it to that draft-dodging con man.

 

That entire story is completely made up. Its his way of making Purple Heart Day about him.
