Accusing Bush of rigging NASA to fail just in time for Obama is just as much a load of BS as saying that Obama's "killing NASA" is an inevitable consequence of his evil, socialist ways, and anybody who voted for him should be ashamed of themself now that he's done it, they should have seen it coming.
It would be a silly, irrational belief, if only Bush hadn't run his entire presidency under the philosophy "Screw it, we'll let the next guy deal with all our problems." Two wars, unpaid tax cuts, unpaid prescription drug plans, unpaid space program, and eight years of huge deficits. And what are they doing now? Bleating about the Democrat's spending and deficit.
With you on the Nixon thing, though. I guess he was too busy carrying on with his abuses of power to take space travel seriously.
No, they didn't see him as a total failure yet, they were too busy being scared out of their minds by manipulative garbage like this:As I recall, Bush in 2004 was the first president to win more than 50% of the popular vote in years. Which says that the public didn't see him as a total failure yet, whether you believe that voter manipulation in any particular state may have swung the electoral vote or not.
Took another couple of years for the lies to come out and people to start ignoring the fear tactics.
Hey, sweet, O-F automatically embeds Youtube links. I didn't know that.
