John McCain voted 100% of the time with what George W. Bush wanted in 2008 and 95% of the time in 2007. That is, when he was there.

It’s beautiful when people can agree to agree:

  • Bush said McCain was set to “carry forth his agenda.”
  • McCain said his friendship with Bush was based on shared views on the issues.
  • McCain will continue Bush’s failed policies in Iraq.
  • McCain’s health care plan is the same as Bush’s.
  • McCain supported Bush’s efforts to privatize Social Security.
  • McCain flip-flopped to align himself with the Bush tax cuts.
  • McCain supported Bush’s disastrous No Child Left Behind.
