Bush Years by the (Staggering) Numbers

It is unbelievable that during the boom years when the economy was strong, Bush ran an enormous deficit. What would he have done if he was not presented with a strong and growing economy when he came to power? It is truly mind boggling that one mans economic policy can destroy his own economy but also the worlds economic growth along with creating a world wide recession (depression).

Bush has also claimed that he has made the USA and the world a safer place, what a load of crap. He has only managed to make the world a more dangerous place by creating terrorists in places there was none before. When people think they are being repressed, controlled and dictated to, they fight back eventually and this is what most of the world but especially the middle east are doing now. The only way to fight terrorism is with equitable foreign policy not with equivocated policies like the Iraq policies that we now know where wrong (lies), weapons of mass destruction.

The USA had a brilliant president after the second world war who realized and declared publicly that the USA was in danger of becoming a military dictatorship if it didn't alter it's direction, sad but this is becoming reality now. Incidentally the president fired the most powerful general and commander during the Korean war, whom was a war hero from the second world war. Why was he fired, because the president realized he was becoming much to dictatorial.It is now the time to radically change how the foreign policies are formed and implemented because history is now proving that since the second world war, they are not working, one only has to look at Cuba which incidentally has the best health care system (also universal) in the world.How is the USA health care, is it Universal? Think deep people, the world is a much larger and complicated place than you think.You cannot progress without learning from history and the mistakes that where made.
