He's no longer running for office, that's it.
When someone runs for office, there's no sort of balanced, nuanced approach to criticism. "Sure, Iraq was a fiasco, but look at what he did to fight AIDS in Africa..." Nope. It's "BUSH LIED! PEOPLE DIED! BUSH LIED! PEOPLE DIED!" That's the only acceptable message from the opposition.
But, now that he's out of office, you no longer get excommunicated for looking at the whole picture.
There's nothing here!
