So why do you think Bush was on the dark side?
I don't ever agree 100% with any leader typically. Those who I've spoken to who know Bush personally tell me that he believed fervently in freedom. He wanted the Iraqi people to have a chance at freedom, rather then literally being feed to the lions by sadam's sons.
Have you actually read the Obama tax plan? Why don't you read this and see for yourself the money grabbing orgy of wealth redistribution... Have you heard of the fairness doctrine?
