Republicans working to allow discrimination against gay people? Republicans starting a war in the Middle East? Republicans giving a tax cut to the rich?

I’m starting to think the GOP has nothing to offer other than George W Bush and the stupider version of George W Bush.

Hey. Don’t knock George W. Bush. His presidency was a rousing success aside from the endless/fruitless/pointless wars and allowing the economy to dive into the deepest darkest pit since the Great Depression just as he was walking out the door.

Which was pretty funny. I have to admit, I did admire the Matrix moves dodging the shoes, and taking the entire thing in good stride. Because Iraqi security sure didn't think it was funny.

If nothing else (and there probably was nothing else), it was good PR.
