Nance Greggs: Please Proceed, GOP

[DemocratsForProgress]

Over the past four-plus years, it has been downright mind-blowing to watch you, the GOP, rewrite history in a never-ending attempt to compare the current administration to the overwhelming failure that was the Dubya presidency – and somehow come to the conclusion that between our man and your boy, Obama is the one who is somehow found wanting.

You have compared every aspect of Obama’s term in office to the Reign of Error that preceded him. And while those comparisons have been blatantly ridiculous, the entertainment value of watching you equate the astounding accomplishments of one with the dismal record of the other is priceless.

For the record, let me remind you of history as it actually unfolded, rather than as you want it to be perceived.

Barack Obama never received a briefing entitled “Bin Laden determined to strike in the US”, which he immediately ignored, along with dismissing the constant and dire warnings of the intelligence community. The attack of 9/11 happened on your boy’s watch, and you can chalk up the resulting deaths of over 3,000 people in his column. You can, of course, count that as a win in your “war on terror” – although I doubt most Americans think of it in that light...

6. Vis-a-vis the paragraph comparing Katrina and Sandy responses...

another stark contrast in the responses was that Obama worked with Republicans Christie and King on recovery, whereas Bush pointedly delayed response and resources to Louisiana because of it's Democratic governor (Landry) and NOLA's democratic mayor.

7. Thank you, DFP

for bringing Nance Greggs here. Another spot on rant.

Rewrite away boys, it only makes you look more foolish than you already do. You can fool some of the people some of the time. However we know for a fact that Busco was the worst reign of terror this country has ever lived through.
