I don't know.
Bush was born into one of the richest families in the country, but for most of his life, he was kind of a fuckup. Didn't show up to his National Guard duty, was drunk for years until he "Found" Jesus, had a bunch of failed business ventures his daddy had to bail him out on, and then stole a presidential election, turning peace into war, prosperity into recession and surpluses into endless debt.
Obama, on the other hand, was born at a time when he was considered a second class citizen because of his race. He worked hard, got a law degree, went into politics, and eventually became President. Oh, yeah, and he did it without a court throwing him the election.
Hasn't fixed all the problems yet, but he ended a pointless war, finally created universal health coverage, and has repaired a lot of the damage to the economy he inherited despite the oppossition party trying to sabotage him at every turn.
Obama spends most of his days whining about how bad it is to be black yet he never knew what it was like till he was an adult when he moved to Chicago. He had a much more sheltered life than most of us.
Going to the best schools in the country, living with his grandparents in Hawaii. Boy, he sure had it bad, didn't he?
Still whining about that election Joe? Dude, didn't you say you used to be a Republican? I think you're a friggen liar.
No, I voted for Bush in that election.
I just wonder how much better my life would be right now if Gore had won. Oh, wait. Gore did win. Bush cheated.
First, he wouldn't have said, "Well, you covered your ass" when the CIA told him Bin Laden was looking to hijack airplanes.
Gore lost, and he tried to steal the election with a recount only in selected districts he knew were liberal hotspots. The media has tried to prove Gore would have won but couldn't. If Gore had won all of the crap that's going on now would have started 8 years earlier, and maybe Gore wouldn't have turned into a madman going around the country screaming about Global Warming. Maybe he and Tipper might have stayed living together a few more years instead of Al moving to San Francisco and chasing boys around bathhouses in his towel.
Oh, and I don't think you ever voted for someone you hate so much.
