Olbermann: 8 years of Bush in 8 minutes

By Joel McDonald • Jan 17th, 2009 • Category: Blog, Related News & Events

You can’t help but to be angry when you realize what President George W. Bush has done in the last eight years. So many wonder why us “damn liberals” have against this leader. Has it really been so bad? Yes, it has. After 9-11, I gave Bush some credit. I watched his responses. I believed that he could be the leader we needed for the time. He failed me. He failed the nation.

In three days, I will be standing in front of the US Capitol and witness the transfer of power from President Bush to President-Elect Obama. I have high hopes for our incoming president, just as many do. After the end of his term, I hope I’ll not feel angry at any overview of his administration, but proud to have worked toward making it possible.
