He kept us safe.... in one of the most trying of times in world history.
No he hasn't "kept us safe," there never was anything to be fearful of in the first place. Bush and the rest of the conservatives invented a bogeyman and told the rest of America to fear it. And unfortunately, Americans being the obedient slaves that they are, believed that nonsense. Americans fell for it "hook, line and sinker."
The last 8 years have not been our finest hour. Actually it has been very embarrassing.
Apparently, you are living in a sea of denial. I have encountered people of all political affiliations & every single one of them has said that Bush has been one of the worst presidents ever. Anyone who disagrees w/that has no idea what they're talking about.
Or maybe the people of all those political affiliations you encountered have no idea what they are talking about

He kept us safe. After getting a briefing entitled " Bin Laden determined to strike US" ...they did nothing...and then 9/11 happens on their watch.
Then the Anthrax attacks for which they bumbled the investigation.
Not to mention the 4000+ soldiers that had killed for no good reason in Iraq.
And the State Department says world wide terrorist attacks are up ...not down..
Dubya has given a lot of power to corporates; Outsource jobs overseas and corporates will get a tax break!
Then came the famous WMDs...and the rest of the story...a war that was suppose to end quick!
Taken us into a recession.
I guess to sum up:
if you are wealthy--> W has been your hero.
if you are part of the middle class...most likely you are under a financial stress.

George W. Bush is going to go down in history as one of our greatest President. He kept us safe.... in one of the most trying of times in world history.
The job of a terrorist is to make people afraid, and that designation may be applied to George W. Bush if he has caused anyone to fear being attacked.
