As much as it steams me that liberals are rehabilitating the image of George W. Bush, it really pisses me off that they're rehabilitating that fucker.

GWB tried to appoint his personal lawyer, Harriet Miers, to the Supreme Court and failed spectacularly.

I always assumed this was an intentional ploy to make Alito's confirmation go smoother. He could say "well, you said she was unqualified, this guy is super-qualified, what more do you want from me?"

Nah, Miers was the first time W hosed up with the CHUDs. The democrats always hated him and he was bulletproof until Katrina, at which point the rest of the country acknowledged that he was despicably worthless. Meanwhile, the right were still balls-deep with no intention of pulling out. Drown New Orleans for all they care.

But you don't gently caress with the Supreme Court.

It's the only thing these subhuman assholes want and they're not going to allow some podunk fuckwit let his shitlicking jerkmaiden set law for the next generation. They took W aside and sorted him the gently caress out; nominate some "decent," malleable, conservative box-checker. Preferably Catholic.

Miers was the first and only instance of the rightwing turning on W.

Remember, that obsession with the Supreme Court is part of what gave us Trump.

Rick Perry was seen as too effete by Texas voters so he very publicly bragged about shooting a coyote with his concealed carry gun on his morning jog. Obviously he didn't expect to be questioned on this tale of heroism, so when faced with questions like "where is the coyote corpse" and "where did you shoot it" he pretty much folded.

There was a blizzard that hit New Jersey early in Chris Christie's governorship, he was on vacation (I think it was Disneyworld) and didn't come back. Meanwhile, Corey Booker was out in the streets of Newark (he was still the mayor back then) shoveling snow for something like 8 hours straight to get the roads and sidewalks cleared, basically conscripting able-bodied locals all the way. I remember this well because Booker made drat sure all the news networks were following him the whole time. Booker raised his profile with that, and Christie was savaged in the local media.


By the time Super Storm Sandy hit, Christie had learned his lesson. He immediately liaised with Booker and Obama, and NJ was able to start recovering pretty quickly (apart from the coast). Ironically, the GOP's base and the tea party never forgave him for debasing himself, and America itself, by cooperating with Democrats, so he may have learned the wrong lesson after all.
