Yeah, but Bush also thought Iraqis would thank him in the long run. And that we would get Osama bin Laden “dead or alive” (at least until he couldn’t). And that the economy would boom under his influence. So far, history three, Bush zero. And counting.
W has done a lot to deal with AIDS in Africa (not much else, really, sorry Mach), but calling him compassionate requires more data than we have. Or requires data to counter the evidence I have seen.
Sorry, but I seem to remember the South African government being sued by an American pharmaceutical firm to stop it from distributing HIV drugs bought from India for around 50 cents a dose rather than the American firms three dollar something a dose. Whole suit hinged on a technacality. After a public outcry the complaint was withdrawn.

Would laugh a little … except it would be just how W thinks, (Make that try to think).

Well, it was only a matter of time before his “legacy” cheerleading squad would think of this.

^ exactly, this panel is a back handed insult to Obama, I wonder if it was intentional?..coming from Luckovich…
No president has ever done more for Africa, but don’t let the ‘facts’ get in the way of lunatic Liberals’ delusions…

I agree Bush has not done a lot but maybe he is doing his best (yes that is an insult). He should have never been allowed in the white house
