Remember America's Last Republican President?

It amazing how no one, Democrat or Republican ever mentions the fact that the last Republican president almost destroyed our country.

We will never be able to undo all the damage Bush did.

Why is the never ever ever mentioned?

Which is what Trump is babbling about.

It is the total collapse or our economy.

Even when the "media" (sic) talk about Iraq, they always leave out the lies part.

Every single Democrat should constantly remind America how bad Republican ideas really are.

I don't see it.

I think it depends on the circle you're in. Libs talk about it, progressives talk about it, radicals talk about it, at least in my circles. But, my Republican family and friends never talk about it, nor do my loose Democratic friends talk about it. In other words, if you aren't a political junkie, it's easy to get lost in whatever the mainstream news, and the latest Facebook meme, tells you to think. Sadly.

Yes, it's amazing how short everyone's memory and attention span is when it comes to Bush 43's bulldozing effect upon America, leaving pressing domestic issues largely ignored, while the country crumbled into steep decline.
