ONE YEAR GONE: George W. Bush…Idiot.

One year ago today President Bush left the White House. It’s been said before, but I think on this anniversary it bears repeating.

George W. Bush is an idiot.

That’s right. He’s a dolt. A moron. A cowboy. An anti-intellectual. A dummy.

I don’t use these words lightly and I firmly stand behind them. Of course, I’m not using the traditional definition of these adjectives. I’m using the current, leftist lexicon in describing the man.

The left loves to rename things. They call acts of terrorism “man caused disasters.” The call a bill that takes away secret ballots for workers the “employee free choice act”. Expensive health care is renamed “affordable” and when they flush $800 billion of taxpayer money down the toilet they call it an economic “stimulus.”

They call a bunch of snotty, elitist, knuckleheads who are completely clueless about economics and foreign policy “smart power.” And they refer to their leader, famous for dodging responsibility and voting “present,” as “pragmatic.”

So it stands to reason that in the leftist thesaurus George W. Bush would be classified as a clown, buffoon, and utter retard.

Sarah Palin is pretty clueless too. Glenn Beck is a fear-mongering loon. Rush Limbaugh is dangerous.

And we are all racists.

In addition to using the leftist dictionary, we can also reflect on George W. Bush’s presidency using the current metrics by which this administration judges itself. Under his watch George W. Bush probably “saved or created” 60 million jobs in my estimation (30 million just by keeping Algore and Kerry out of the White House). He avoided nuclear war after “inheriting” a disastrous foreign policy situation created by the Clinton administration. He saved millions of lives by preventing terrorists from obtaining weapons of mass destruction.

Not bad for a hillbilly redneck.

Of course he had his faults, by leftist standards. He didn’t send his press secretary out to attack news organizations that were unfavorable to him. He didn’t bow before foreign kings and emperors. He attempted to compromise by getting behind bills like “No Child Left Behind,” foolishly attempting to work with the opposition. He naively saw himself as a public servant, and not as the “ruler” of the masses who are incapable of self-governance. He understood that sometimes America’s interests conflict with those of other countries, and winning the adoration of foreigners isn’t always good for America.

His greatest sin, of course, was attempting to lead by principle and not by the whims of the polls and the influence of his financial supporters. He followed through on things, even when they weren’t popular because he knew that they were right. And history has proven that he was right about a great many things.

What a joker.

In many ways, George W. Bush reminds me of another idiot president; that bumbling, senile, actor Ronald Reagan. The media would like you to forget the merciless way they savaged Reagan while he was in office. Now, as history has validated Reagan’s agenda and nostalgia has set in, even the left favorably invokes his name in the context of their Dear Leader.

I wonder how long before a Democrat is sold to the public as being “W-esque”.

I too am a “follow my gut,” principled person. I guess that makes me a moron.

Barbara Mandrell’s classic song comes to mind, “If loving you is wrong, I don’t wanna be right.” If Keith Olbermann, Janet Napolitano, Paul Krugman, Joe Biden and Chris Matthews are “smart” and George W. Bush and Ronald Reagan are idiots….well count me in as a mouth-breathing imbecile.

I miss having my fellow simpleton in the Oval Office. The country felt safer. Morale was higher. And there wasn’t this sinking feeling that freedom was being sold out to the interests of unions, community organizers, and a network of government parasites.

W. wasn’t perfect. Far from it. He played good offense on national security but lousy defense on spending. He failed to stop the rising tide of big government and runaway spending.

The sad part is, that every negative policy of the Bush administration that I can think of has been continued or amped up under the Obama regime.

Of course, nobody seems to notice this. Except us knuckleheads.

So, enjoy your retirement W. We miss you. I have a sinking suspicion that your legacy of ignorance and stupidity will see a resurgence in 2012. That’s the next chance for the unwashed masses to put a dunce in the White House.

I can’t wait.
