Bush Legacy
Cheney and Rumsfeld Rewrite History
As the war in Afghanistan moves forward under the leadership of Barack Obama, the American public heard from a couple of the military geniuses who got us in this mess to begin with. Both Cheney and Rumsfeld thought it was their duty to comment on how badly Obama was conducting the war effort and... »
Afghanistan: The Question Is Strategy, Not Troops
For the last few years of the Bush administration, Afghanistan suffered from both the neglect and ineptitude of a President more interested in Saddam Hussein then Osama Bin Laden. While distracted in Iraq, we lost territory to a resurgent Taliban and watched our handpicked government devolve into corruption. Most importantly, we failed to eliminate... »
Voodoo Economics: The Final Report Card On Bush’s Epic Failure
The annual Census Bureau report on income, poverty and access to health care came out late last week and it brought only more bad news for the Bush legacy project.

Another Bush Failure For Obama To Fix
Bush’s Legacy project just got a little bit more difficult this week with the announcement that the Justice Department will be investigating the use of torture by the CIA during the Bush administration. The investigation will be narrowly focused on those specific acts of torture and abuse that went beyond the legal directives put... »
Tom Ridge Confirms Bush’s Terror Tactics
Sometimes conspiracy theories really do come true. In Tom Ridge’s upcoming book he outlines several scenarios where he felt pressure to raise the terror alert levels to artificially high levels for purely political reasons. What a big surprise. Actually, as dirty deeds from the Bush administration go, this doesn’t seem to be a very... »
Dick Cheney and the Politics of Fear
There has been much talk about Dick Cheney’s motives for continually speaking out about President Obama’s policies making us less safe. Yesterday and today, for example, Leon Panetta was quoted as saying “It is almost like he wants this country to be attacked”. Ed Shultz has taken it even farther and truly believes that... »
