Why do Bush supporters continually tout a tragic failure as his greatest accomplishment?
It amazes me that Bush miscues failed to avert the 9/11 disaster and yet the fact that he hasn't messed up that badly again is a repeated Bush high point on YA by his supporters.
Why is that?
Bush demoted national security adviser Sandy Burger and counter terrorism adviser Richard Clark saying they were overstating the terrorism threat. He made fun of their warnings calling Clark and Burger "Chicken Littles" ( HELP! HELP! The sky is Falling!)
Then even after direct warnings were ignored by Rice, Cheney and Bush we had multiple attacks killing thousand of innocent Americans, and yet Bush supporters tout the fact that it hasn’t happened again as a Bush bright spot.
How about Nixon’s greatest triumph being he only had one break in he tried to cover up?
How about the crowning glory of Clinton's eight years is that he stopped after Monica?
How about Jeffery Doumer was a great human because he stopped eating people after he was in prison?
Hitler didn't personally kill any Jews while he was hiding in his Berlin bunker?
Why do Bush supporters tout a tragic failure as his greatest accomplishment?
(There have been no more terrorist attacks since 9/11?)
What is so great about screwing up four times more than any other President?

This is an old advertising ploy.
You present your weakest point as if it is a strong point.
Like touting the wonderful gas mileage of a Cadillac Escalade, or selling the attractiveness of a chain link fence.
By acting like the negative is a positive you try to neutralize the bad effects.
