America is not actually missing Bush. That's just someone reminding everybody of the shortcoming of the present president. Actually America did no hate Bush, the very rich and powerful ultra left wing groups hated Bush. Having control of the major media outlets, they pounded the message across daily in the press, cable news, TV, radio, etc. If a lie is repeated often enough it will be believe. Hitler did this very well during the 30's. And most American are easily lead and/or just plain too lazy to think on their own now days.
Any one not agreeing with the ultra left, or people not going with all their views, will be considered stupid, dumb or whatever by them. They are the self appointed elitist whom, in their own view, seem to know much better than anyone else how to control and run the country.
As far a Bush goes, his college records show a much higher grade point average than Gore, Kerry and Ted Kennedy,the much less gifted mentally of his other 3 brothers. If you think that Bush's fathers money and status got him better grades in college, consider that Gore, Kerry and Kennedy were all raised in extremely wealthy family's. With great influence on any university they attended. Just shows, in America, how far and high a good line of BS can take one. Just to add, I am not a Bush admirer, so no bias intended in all this. I am an American National, which means I can not vote with in the U.S..
As far as the prestent Hope and Change chant goes, I 'hope' Americans have enough 'change' left in their pockets to get their next meal in the coming year. Guess that chant might also fall under the BS banner also.
