Hmm, with all the current furor over the troubled roll-out of the Affordable Care Act (that is, the website for the health care exchanges), i was wondering how it compares to the troubles of the last administration (that of George W. Bush)...
The cost of developing the troubled website (by contractors with problematic histories):
$600,000,000 (six hundred million dollars)
The cost of the Iraq war (over weapons of mass destruction that were never found):
$1,000,000,000,000 (one trillion dollars)
So how much worse was George W. Bush's bungle than Barack Obama's?
One Thousand Six Hundred Sixty-Seven times worse! (approximately)
Like i said in the title: Obama's troubles (in terms of his legacy) are small potatoes compared to those of George W. Bush.
