Just As I Thought

Abhoration

There’s an op ed in the Post today that starts out:

Anyone who hobnobs with progressives knows by now that a fair proportion of these bright and articulate Americans hate George W. Bush. They abhor him. The embrace of Bush hatred has even appeared in otherwise sober journals of opinion such as the New Republic. Why? How is it that so many thoughtful people hold a belief that is surprising — and troubling — to the vast majority of Americans?

Gee, I wonder if he asked this question back in the Clinton era. I think not.
And in the case of Clinton, the vast majority didn’t hate him. he left office with one of the highest approval ratings in history. Higher than Reagan.
Bush has one of the lowest.

Later in the editorial, he says:

Bush’s administration is free of scandals.

That was the point where my bullshit alarm went off.
