When they say “but Bush kept us safe” it’s like this.
Say you took a cab ride, and the driver drove like a maniac, so much so that you worried he might be drunk. In fact, he got pulled over, but the cops let him go on his way. And he got obviously lost, several times, but fiercely denied there was any problem. He kept up an incessant patter of retarded drivel throughout. The meter kept running. In the end, you didn’t so much get to your destination as run out of time. And when you complained, he said: but at least we didn’t crash. (via peterfeld)
