A couple of days ago, Romney made a huge gaffe as he criticized the Obama administration about sympathizing with the armed militants who stormed the U.S. consulate in Libya in protest over an anti-Islam film and killed ambassador Christopher Stevens. Turns out Romney &#8220;shot first and aimed later&#8221;, as he was completely clueless about the timeline of the events. It turns out both Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and President Obama harshly criticized the attacks and Romney looks like a complete doofus. Which reminds us of another doofus, who ran the show from 2001 to 2009.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2293\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2293\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bilgebucket.com\/?attachment_id=2293\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2293\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2293\" title=\"bushphone\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bilgebucket.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bushphone.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.bilgebucket.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bushphone.jpg 500w, http:\/\/www.bilgebucket.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bushphone-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 85vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2293\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">President Bush puts in a phone call to his father, former President George H.W.
