Did George W. Bush make one, two, three... mistakes?
Let's review the facts:
Bush asked our National Guard, Army Reserves, all 4 branches of the military and the full throttle of the Pentagon to fight the enemy and possibly give their ultimate sacrifice, their life. What did he ask the rest of Americans to sacrifice?
Bush diverted our troops from Afghanistan, where its government the Taliban aided and abide Al-Queda.
Bush forced and succeeded in cutting taxes putting our economy at peril during a time of war.
Bush continued and expanded a policy of borrow and spend.
Bush continued importing middle east oil without demanding they would ensure oil revenues were not being used to support rogue nations or extremist organizations.
Bush continues to fund the Iraqi government even though the Iraqi's have billions of dollars from their oil revenues.
Bush continued extending the age limit before a retiree is eligible for Social Security benefits.
Bush continued to issue no bid contracts favoring his ties to non-military companies working in the war zone.
Bush continued to reduce taxes even though he asked all first-responders to increase their efforts. Instead budgets for first-responders have decreased.
Bush continued his borrow and spend policy by giving Americans a pittance or so called "stimulus funds" of $300 to help jump start the economy.

# An additional stairway will be required in new skyscrapers unless an elevator that can operate during a fire emergency is usable by occupants
# Elevators, properly constructed for such use, will be authorized for occupant evacuation
This came about because of the impossibility of evacuating people from the Trade Towers in 2001.
The administration is actively campaigning against this requirement.
