Some people still don't have a clue

This was in The Richmond-Times Dispatch this morning (or as some of us Virginians refer to it "The Richmond-Times Disgrace"). The historical revisionists have already begun their work. This piece belongs on The Onion, not in a newspaper!!

1. Wow, that headline was all I needed. n/t

[mwb970]

2. He was consequential, all right.

It's just that the consequences ranged from bad to awful.

[csziggy]

4. Yes, like the Tsunami of 2005 was consequential n/t

[Donnachaidh]

3. what kind of drugs is this man on?

And will he SHARE? It's been ages since I've been THAT high -- what's it called? FUBAR?

5. Yeah Ross! Tell the people on the unemployment line that Bush was great

for this country.

[liberalmuse]

6. Change 'Reagan' to 'Hitler'.

Jesus. Someone needs to tell them that you can try to polish a giant, stinking turd, but all you get is a shiny, giant, stinking turd.

7. Hitler, Stalin and Mao were all consequential leaders too

In fact people lived with the consequences of their actions for decades. Being "consequential" makes not one great.

Bush is not my president, never was my president, and I will never accept the legitimacy of his selection in 2000.

8. We'll be suffering the consequences

of this 'consequential president' for a very long time.

9. Agreed

Very well said!

:fistbump:

10. "The enterprise in Iraq"???????

:wtf: :banghead: :spank:

[Warpy]

11. They failed to mention the fact

that most of Reagan's consequences and all of Stupid's consequences are dire for the country as a whole and for the people who live in it.

I guess "consequential" is going to be their buzz word to fool the rubes into thinking that's somehow good. \

Hitler and Mussolini were consequential, after all.

12. this HAS TO be a joke!

Here is the proof this is satire: "His early tax cuts helped the country out of the recession President Clinton left him."

[merh]

13. deadly consequences

[machI]

14. Only one question needs to be answered

Did Bush leave it better than he found it?
