How Come No Republicans Will Mention Bush?

Is it because the GOP is completely embarrassed by Bush?

I like to refer to it as the Cheney administration. Bush was just a puppet for Cheney the entire 8 years.

They probably won't mention Bush because Obama has droned on and on about Bush ad nauseum as his excuse for his policies not working.

I guess Obama should just overlook the tanked economy and housing market that he inherited, and the useless war they got us involved in. Facts are facts, they did leave him a mess to deal with and we are better off today then we were 4 years ago.

Funny how Republicans (not necessarily you, WingNut) are outraged about a black man playing golf. I guess Tiger Woods didn't break down many racial barriers.

How do you figure white repubs are "outraged about a black man playing golf"?

It took Obama nine months to match the total number of times Bush played golf in 8 years. Given the state of the nation, I think he can devote his time to better, more worthwhile endeavors.

I guess you feel that keeping the local golf course economy afloat is a good economic stimulus.

He was and is. We are getting out of the Cheney war and the housing market is finally recovering. And things will get even better with Obama in office four more years.

Bush didn't play 8 years. He quit in 2003 (supposedly for the troops, though there is some evidence his knee was acting up, making it harder to play).

Here is a comparison with other Presidents. About as much as Ike, but far less than some others. (FYI - The Walker Cup is named after the Walker in George Herbert Walker Bush).

http://edition.cnn.com/2012/01/27/opinion/davis-obama-golf/index.html

Like I said, this has never been a political issue before a black man played as President.

It wasn't because he was playing golf. It was because he tried to make a joke using golf right after making statements about 9/11.

Just like people don't criticize a President for reading a book to school children. But they criticized Bush for sitting there like a deer in the headlights for seven friggin' minutes while a book was being read to school children at a critical moment in our nation's history.

How stupid are you Wingnut? Have you even hung out with people on the Hill?

Everybody in Washington plays golf. Boehner plays almost four times a week. Golf is consider a way to lobby and part of the political job.

Changed my mind.

I do NOT want whatever it is you're taking.

But I do hope they prescribed a rubber room to go with it for you.

Neither is Reagan, but they keep bringing him up.

Let's be honest. The Bush family produced two pretty crappy Presidents. Bush Sr. was Carter and Bush Jr. was a mix of LBJ and Hoover. You will never see a future GOP candidate running on the legacy of a Bush like you've seen with Reagan.

Funny how the only possible defenses of Obama and his actions are that its racism and cant stand on the merits.

Hes played far more golf than Bush and when the economy went bad Bush stopped playing.

As always your blinded by youre loyalty to a black man since everything is about race to you

Bush stopped in 2003. Not when the economy went bad. Read the article I posted. It's not like Obama spends an entire month at his personal home on taxpayers' expense.

Your right as opposed to running the country from his home which gets set up to run the country when they win the election hes spent literally months worth of time playing over 100 rounds of golf in 3 years, Michelle takes vactions around the world with the daughters, Michelle gets a separate plane because she cant wait 4 hours for him, Michelle spends millions on her own staff that no other first lady has ever done, theyll vacation in the hamptons.

The list goes on and on. Your bullshit gets more pathetic every day.

If he was a republican and/or white you would be up in arms. But hes a black dem so your fine with it. Nothing but a partisan hack, then again what else should we expect from you

I would have no problem with a President white/black, Republican/Dem spending weekends on the golf course. It's a high stress job and if three or four hours a golf on a weekend gives them a break, so be it. I really don't have that much issue with Crawford because I realize Bush probably worked most of that time. But I like to bring it up when Republicans claim Obama is somehow lazy. I really don't think any President can choose to be lazy.

People call him lazy because he said he was in an interview. People have a problem with him golfing all the time because Dems set the stage for that with Bush when he didnt even golf that much. And you shouldnt ever bring up Crawford, because if your stance if what Obama is doing is fine what Bush did was more than fine. Just makes you look like an Obama fan boy and a hypocrite.

You cant bitch about things for 8 years as a party and then all of a sudden be fine with it when the poster child of such activities are in the white house. You guys made your own bed for the expected actions of the president.

I dont care about crawford, he was working, I wouldnt care about golf either but after hearing about it for 8 years I do care that the media hounded Bush for every little thing and now Obama gets a free pass on the same things

Maybe because unlike Obama the GOP has figured out Bush is no longer President.

So Vexxxed you are saying what I said is not true. Open your eyes and look at the real world and not just the crazy crap the media feeds you GOPs. No question we are getting out of the Cheney war and no doubt the housing market is improving. This is all fact.

This is what all of you bitter GOP folks say. It takes a long time to fix the mess that Cheney and Bush left behind, You can't fix the sad economy and war that was inherited over night. It took Bush 8 years to create it so you need time to fix it.

So you have to be stupid or racist to understand why she does that? I guess since I don't understand it, I am neither stupid or racist. I thought it might be a weight and balance issue with the plane, but a 747 is a heavy lifter. Any stupid or racist people want to enlighten those of us who are not?

As was stated because she couldnt wait 4 hours. The first lady isnt in the line of succession so dont try and say its a in case air force once crashes bullshit.

But obviously youre a moron, and when you cant use logic or facts hey just play the race card
