January 2009 and the attacks on the outgoing President Bush

During President Bush's last few days, our friend J R Dunn looked back at Bush bashing.

J R Dunn was right.  The attacks spoke volumes about the "bashers" and little about the "bashee":
"His detractors were willing to risk the country's safety, its economic health, and the very balance of the democratic system of government in order to get at him.
They were out to bring him down at all costs, or at the very least destroy his personal and presidential reputation.
At this they have been half successful, at a high price for the country and its government."
It was a massive display of immaturity and a cult of personality!
