remember, hitler was an artist AND a mass murderer - any similarities there? just how far would "W" have gone in his pursuit of cleansing the world of the "evil" he believed existed in the middle east, etc. if he's been in office longer? or, continued if someone other else had been elected in 2008?

..but Bush was never bright enough to plan and execute all the evil of those years. He was merely a puppet. Doubt he was even aware of most things that went on in his name.

Cheney, et.al., however, need to be held accountable for all they did.
The sooner the better.

to become an infamously great public speaker. Bush was too busy clearing brush at his ranch to be bothered.

and heinous piece of television I have seen in quite a while. That bastard belongs in Leavenworth. Man, it must suck to be his daughter. All of his paintings have a creepy quality that I just can't quite put my finger on--something about the dead eyes. Oh, and did you notice that he only "paints" Caucasians? At least that's all I saw.

"Art critic Deborah Solomon stopped by HuffPost Live to give her thoughts on the 43rd president-turned-burgeoning artist. Spoiler alert: she wasn't particularly impressed.

"I would just like to point out they are basically very simple-minded as paintings," Solomon explains, stressing the fact that Bush likely projects photographs onto a panel and copies them, a process known to the masses as tracing."
------------

Yeah, "simple-minded"--just like everything else he's done his whole pathetic, miserable life.

Before this thing goes any further, please somebody buy Jeb Bush a paint set.
