Bush knew that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 and invaded anyway because he wanted to finish what daddy started. How many innocents suffered and died because of that decision? He authorized kidnapping people off the street in foreign nations and throwing them in black sites to be tortured without any evidence that they were actually enemies or criminals. He’s responsible for enough death and suffering that Trump actually still has some catching up to do, though I concede he is well on his way.
Also, the GOP in the Bush ere was not the rubber stamp it is now. They still pretended to care about what was right and wrong. That is no longer the case.
Stop white-washing Bush and acting like he was a well-meaning, doddering, buffoon. He wasn’t.
I’m not white washing anything, he was an awful president and is a pretty shitty human. But I don’t think he’s evil, I think he’s just really fucking stupid and easy to manipulate.
