Changes

'''George Walker Bush''' (born New Haven, [[Connecticut]] July 6, 1946, age 77) was the Governor of [[Texas]] (1995–2000) and served as the 43rd [[President of the United States of America]] from 2001 to 2009. He campaigned on a theme of "[[compassionate conservatism]]" (hypocritically, he nearly always denied [[Pardon Clause|pardon]] requests) and promised "to restore honor and dignity" to the office of President after the scandalous Clinton years.<ref>[http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9507E3DC153FF931A2575BC0A9669C8B63&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=all THE 2000 CAMPAIGN: THE TEXAS GOVERNOR; Bush Calls on Gore to Denounce Clinton Affair,] By Frank Bruni, [[The New York Times]]'', August 12, 2000.</ref> Bush won the presidency by a very narrow margin in the decisive State of [[Florida]] in the [[United States presidential election, 2000|2000 Presidential election]].

Cronyism is the hallmark of Bush politics, and that of his [[neocon]] vice president, [[Dick Cheney]].  If you're family or friends, you're in, and if not, you're out of luck or will be opposed.  [[Conservative]] furor over Bush's nomination of crony [[Harriet Miers]] to the [[Supreme Court of the United States|Supreme Court]] was necessary to compel Bush to replace his nomination with [[Sam Alito]], who subsequently led the overturning of ''[[Roe v. Wade]]''.

The difference between Bush and Trump is illustrated by how Bush waited until his last full day in office before merely commuting the brutally harsh prison sentences of border patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean for trying to secure the southern border.  Trump fully pardoned these heroic defenders of the border.  Bush refused to vote for Trump in 2016 and 2020.
