By this point, the 2000s seem like a 1990s lite even with 9/11, Iraq and Katrina. That's how bad it's gotten nowadays.
nope
I might miss the years, but I sure as hell don't miss the man
I think a lot changed after the crash in 08. Maybe more noticable for me since I was out of the country. So yes, I do miss those years but I have no clue what caused things to change.

In hindsight, he was a great President. History will judge him one of the top five.

No. He is not that at all.
He is radical socialist raised in Kenya, his real father is frank marshall davis
he is a genius manipulator, who probably wants to change the U.S. because he thinks we were colonialists or some shit
It's fine here in Canada.
Trudeau just came to Vancouver and he announced new public transport projects, and the federal government is trying to do something about rising housing prices (not that it matters to me cause I have a home) and Microsoft just opened an office here. In Quebec, there are a ton of industries hiring so thats nice.
No I don't miss the recession. I remember in 2008 my parents and really everyone was afraid of losing their mortgage or getting laid off.

I was 8 when he got elected and 16 when Obama did. Don't remember much as I didn't care about politics then. I think it would be interesting to be an adult during his time.
Bush was the first time we elected a dynasty president, and we got what we deserved because of it.

Obama did what Bush did, but push it even further, at best, along with trying to create racial tension, disarm Americans, create the terrible Obamacare, funded ISIS, gave weapons to drug lords (without tracking devices), and more.
It is a complete lie that Obama was mediocre.
No. They were even worse than Obama.
You should miss the Clinton years, when economic growth was out of control even with, frankly, a buffoon in the driver's seat.
George H.W. Bush was probably the most competent and honorable president we've had in a while.
Reagan, Ford and Carter...eh, they were all mediocre. Nixon...let's stop there and be glad it hasn't gotten worse than that.
Bush was fucking terrible. He literally didn't do a single good thing for our country while it went from one of the most prosperous eras into one of the worst.
He literally engaged us in war for the benefit of the oil industry but was not nearly as smart as even his father.
In all actuality he will be regarded as close to the 10 worst presidents of all time.
He literally didn't do a single good thing for the people of this country
>>77892326

thats why our dollar is fucked

W was elected on his own merit.

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness has just come out, the RHCP and U2 haven't released a garbage album yet...and it was still okay to say faggot.

As an adult having lived through Obama, it wasn't interesting so much as a prolonged series of disappointments and mediocrity.
After Bush, people were happy to settle for someone who at the very least would keep major crises and drama to a minimum. That is about all we got.
To have listened to the people who voted for him in 2008 you would have thought it was the second coming of Jesus. That's how badly we wanted a competent president.

He toiled while the country burned. Literally the country went into a depression we just came out of last year under his watch.
His entire group of advisors consisted of dick cheyney, rumsfeld Condoleezza rice and his closest advisor Bandar bush- head of Saudi intelligence.
His entire think tank were all oil people, period. He waged war for the sake of the Saudis and the jews- Everyone purporting to think highly of him here knows this.
He sent American lives to go fight and due for Saudis and jews. I'll repeat that again,
He sent our soldiers to fight and die for the Saudis (roach ) and the jew (rat).
No child left behind was an utter fucking disaster. He payed virtually no attention to domestic matters,
He was busy stuffing his pockets with oil at upwards of 140 dollars a barrel to be concerned with the average person.
Wages literally hadn't risen from 2008 until last year,
He doesn't control the economy but he does set the precedent and provide oversight.
He literally became president and only managed to help himself and personal allies become more powerful at the expense of our countries welfare and standing in the world.
He was also a male cheerleader at Yale, literally I'm not making this up.
He pretended to be a cowboy but he was as much of a cowboy as the guy from the village people was.
He should be dragged out kicking and screaming by his bootstrap into a fucking field and shot in the face for treason

Your picture is full of true and win.
I think you misunderstood my original post.
You guys also forget that in addition to having to grant clemency to Scooter Libby, and making Colin Powell lie to the UN, the Attorney General he appointed, Alberto Gonzales told lies to members of Congress.
The AG who preceded him was a key force in getting the Patriot Act passed. Bush's cabinet and advisors were all corrupt motherfuckers.
>>77895411
The auto bailout happened before Obama took office.
>killed ~3000 people to go to war because muh legacy
>let bankers (jews) control themselves, causing a huge crash
One of the worst, at least H.W Bush was amazing though
Back in 1999 I was a massive blue pilled faggot and GW Bush scared the hell out of me. I thought if it has to be a republican let it be McCain, even though back then we all thought he was ancient. (But fuck he's still going).
When Bush got a second term I was massively butthurt. The idea of seeing him dominating world news for the next four years caused me a lot of angst.
But you know what OP, in hindsight and with the current man in the white house (and also coz I've grown up and realised how the world works) I see he was a decent leader.
Back then the world worried about islamic terrorism. Now thanks to the current administration we are told to worry about tranny bathrooms, evil cops killing those lovely blm folks, we are told to fear white supremacist mass shooters, in fact everything BUT terrorism, despite the fact our muslim friends are going berserk against us.
Simpler times back then. Now things are more concerning but we just have our heads in the sand.
Also saw GW supporting Jeb earlier this year. Was like seeing an uncle for the first time in years, and getting sad coz you realise he's much older now and doesn't have the same spark. Still not as bad as Clinton though he's become a zombie.
>>77895081
>>attacked by ISIS
>>declare war on Bashar Al-Assas
Iraq was attacking, too. 90% of the country decided it was time to stop it.
>The Plame Affair was a real low-light,
Fucking moron, Plame was on the covers of national magazines as a CIA agent before that.
>Impeachable offense, easily, but Scooter Libby took the fall for his boss.
Fucking moron, Libby was jailed for the same reason Martha Stewart was. Neither committed a felony, but both tried to volunteer too much to Federal agents. It's a felony to lie to a cop, even if you thought the lie was true.
Fucking Obama voters.

It takes decades to see the impact of a President.
You're talking about opinion polls of a mal-educated American public. Look at data instead.
Bush wasn't perfect by a long ways. I'd have changed a lot of things. But overall, he did ok.
Not one of the charged laid in this thread is true. They could have said he spent too much, or tied the hands of troops he sent to war, or etc. But liberals aren't smart.

Appealing to the board for sympathy is pathetic. Instead, put aside what you "know" is correct and look for hard data to back up your opinions.
And if you don't find it, change your opinion. Don't try to change the data like the warmists do.
gas was $1.33 a gallon in 2004

You're wrong, champ.
That started when Obama quit making you pay back student loans. Colleges charge as much as they can, and now the .gov will give you as a much of a loan as they can, and tuition will continue to go up.
Blaming Bush for college costs is retarded. .gove wasn't involved back then.

Like thusly:

Chemical:
The nerve agent VX is one of the most toxic ever developed.
Iraq has declared that it only produced VX on a pilot scale, just a few tonnes and that the quality was poor and the product unstable. Consequently, it was said, that the agent was never weaponised. Iraq said that the small quantity of agent remaining after the Gulf War was unilaterally destroyed in the summer of 1991.
UNMOVIC, however, has information that conflicts with this account. There are indications that Iraq had worked on the problem of purity and stabilization and that more had been achieved than has been declared. Indeed, even one of the documents provided by Iraq indicates that the purity of the agent, at least in laboratory production, was higher than declared.

The Iraq war was justified and necessary.
Necessary:
From before my lifetime, the US was accused of, and did, prop up dictators for our own purposes (tbf, as all other world powers do). It was used as a club against us.
Bush proved that they didn't want freedom.
It was a gamble, but the payoff of a democratic Iraq would have been enormous. The chance had to be taken, just once.
Justified:
9/10 of Americans wanted it. We had September 11, a beltway sniper, at least two other planes crashed into buildings, and mass-mailings of poison to political leaders. Saddam was paying bounties to suicide bombers and claiming WMD's, which we knew he'd used recently.
Then, like now, we all agreed that something had to be done about those arabs. We were being attacked, and none one else could do it. Bill Clinton signed the removal of Saddam into US law.
Side note: all the western nations who opposed us (Germany, France, etc), Russia, plus Koffi and his son, made millions on saddams oil-for-food and/or selling weapons to him. That's why they opposed it. Euros are the only people since Japan in the 1930's who have went to war specifically for oil.
http://www.un.org/apps/news/printinfocusnews.asp?nid=354
The investigation of these rockets is still proceeding. Iraq states that they were overlooked from 1991 from a batch of some 2,000 that were stored there during the Gulf War. This could be the case. They could also be the tip of a submerged iceberg. The discovery of a few rockets does not resolve but rather points to the issue of several thousands of chemical rockets that are unaccounted for.

Taharqa and the other black Kushite rulers enacted a prosperous era and the renaissance of the ethnical eqyptian root culture, instead of destroying or subverting it. I would call that contributing in a historically rare positive way
The blacks really were pharaohs for a time, just not most of the time
Still, I don't get why they go on about Eqypt and not about the kingdom of Kush itself, which is 100% legit wewuz tier and where the black pharaohs came from in the first place

Yea, even back then people could at least make jokes and there was some hope; sometime around 2008 it went bad when Obama got into office.

The Bush years were the shittiest by far
George Bush revoked the security clearances from all members of Congress except for the top 8 in leadership. Then he created an office within the Pentagon to disseminate false information. Then the lies started flowing like a firehose.
His staff repeated crafted disinformation to the public in a well-orchestrated fear campaign. It was the most deliberately dishonest propaganda campaign in American political history.
Bin Laden's alQaeda was based in Afghanistan. He was the mastermind behind the Sept 11 attacks. He killed 4000 Americans that day. Afghanistan has no oil.
Bush invaded Iraq. Iraq was the 5th largest oil producer in the world at that time. Iraq had not attacked and it didn't even threaten to attack the US. The Bush regime fabricated the false narrative that Iraq was about to attack the US to terrify the people into making really poor choices.
By taking Iraq's oil production offline, oil became more scarce and the price skyrocketed. Halliburton was handed a no-bid contract to very slowly rebuild the oil wells and refineries. Cheney earned almost $40 million on his Halliburton stock alone.
It's no surprise right-wing conservatives are so desperate to re-write the history textbooks in Texas. The facts alone are a disaster for the oil barons that engineered the war.

Unprincipled conservatives who shrieked with outrage that Obama's personal records were sealed are not shrieking with outrage that Anonymous revealed Donald Trump's tax information. Galactic class hypocrisy.
We need better leaders. The Cons want to take us in the opposite direction.
>>77897741
>Bush proved that they didn't want freedom.
The opposite is true. When Bush Bush killed the leadership and fired the entire Ba'athist government, Iraq became a lawless state with brutal predatory gangs looting the terrified population. 2.5 million citizens were reduced to poverty-stricken refugees fleeing sectarian strife.
Bush single-handedly created the worst humanitarian crisis of the new millennium.
The power vaccum led to the creation of ISIS and other extremist factions. Iraqi leaders were already brainwashed Islamic theocrats. Their idea of "freedom" is strict Sharia law.
>It was a gamble, but the payoff of a democratic Iraq would have been enormous. >The chance had to be taken, just once.
It was poorly planned and executed even worse. Infrastructure broke down immediately. There was zero plans for continuing government services. Rule of Law was all but eliminated. It was an unmitigated disaster in human and capital terms.

It was really bad for the right-wing conservative White Supremacists having a black president
The Christian coalition lost their minds that a (falsely accused) "Muslim" was elected.
The neo-nationalists had a collective aneurysm over a (falsely accused) "Kenyan" winning.
Wall Street absolutely shit its shorts knowing a Chicago lawyer got elected.
So it was bad for the worst people in America, but the made-up reasons they hated him weren't true.
