Bush haters
Those on the right insist that if you disagree with any of the policies of the Republican party or the Bush administration, you are a “Bush hater.” If you mention anything about the incompetence or ignorance of George W. Bush himself, you are a “Bush basher.” I myself have been accused of being both many, many times.
There is an article on Pensito Review that you should read. It is entitled Confessions of a ‘Bush Hater’. Here’s a snippet:
“Bush hater†is a term invented by people who didn’t like being called “Clinton haters†because it was true. I don’t mind being called a Bush hater because it is not.
My antipathy for George Bush is a thousand miles wide and a micro-millimeter deep. Underneath that thin veneer of dislike lurks one million metric tons of couldn’t-care-less.
On that glorious day when he goes back to Crawford for good - and the world once again becomes safe for democracy - before the sun sets, I will have forgotten him. Seriously. George who?
(For Mr. Bush, I predict the transition from Worst President Ever to Worst Ex-President Ever will be seamless. He’ll be content, finally, to have nothing on his schedule but working on his abs. We won’t be hearing much from him. I mean, it’s not like he going to write a book.)
