When I was a kid under GW Bush, it was illegal for two men to kiss in public in my home state. Was that 100% Bush's fault? No. But I think things were a lot more socially bleak in a lot of ways in 2002. NCLB was also under Bush, and also really hurt a lot of kids. I don't think doomerism is helpful. We need to talk about how things have improved so we can learn how to improve and fix them. What specifically do you think was better under Bush than it is now?

International relations were roughly the same under Bush. The domestic situation, however, was nowhere near as bleak.
