We SHOULD always have passionate debate on issues. I encourage large boisterous rallies over wars, abortion, guns, etc. But there is no equivalent in the Bush bashing to the birther/tea party BS or to Fox/Breitbart.

Yes. Bush bashing was justified as it applied to Iraq. It was shrill when, even after 2004, people were still complaining about the 2000 election.
Obama birtherism was never justified to any extent. It was complete and utter nonsense and a national embarrassment.
Benghazi was another embarrassment.
Clinton's impeachment was one, too.
