My "Reagan Moment" was the instant I realized how wrong I had been (See first post in this thread for comparison).

My mom loooved Reagan and couldn't stand Carter. So, naturally, I loved Carter and couldn't stand Reagan. And I was only 10 when Reagan took office. Even at a young age I instinctively disagreed with her far right fundie-osity. We sure have had some lively conversations over the years.

Her Bush moment came about 18 months ago.

Bush's numbers are once again falling, and more and more GOP leaders are jumping ship. Now, a videotaped meeting pre-Katrina that shows he was made fully aware of the likelihood of a catastrophe, and Brown is appearing to be less of an ignorant weasel as he's been made out to be- I really think the guy was cannon fodder for the admin, and he's not going down without a fight: Bush video

Bush didn’t ask a single question during the final briefing before Katrina struck on Aug. 29, but he assured soon-to-be-battered state officials: “We are fully prepared.”

Fully prepared my Wobblebottom, Mr. Hail To The Chief Nibbles His Nuts.

Numbers falling - surprise visit to Afghanistan today with renewed resolve to get Bin Laden.

Coincidence?

Am I the only one who thought, "Gee, well then isn't it convenient that you hadn't caught him yet?" when Bush said that Bin Laden's taunting probably helped him in the election?

No, not at all- I thought the very same, as I'm sure some of his (cringing) apologists did as well.

But you know....they're gonna get him now!

So your saying that Bush not catching bin Laden was more effective than bin Laden's taunting and threats to the American voter? I do believe that the taunting helped Bush and always have beleived it. But I would have helped him more to catch bin Laden.

Stunning, ain't it? Three years after promising to get Bin Laden (Dead or Alive!), dude gets a bump for being taunted by his sworn enemy.

It's as staggeringly unbelievable today as it was 16 months ago.
