Bush's Place in History.

[Stealth694]

My istincts tell me the Republican aare not happy at all and it may be Bush's fault they no longer Control Congress
And if anyone noticed, be it chance or not, during the last election in 2008, very few if any Replicans, SEnetors, Reps or Presidential Cndidates wanted anything to do with Bush, they realy seemed to make it apoint to distance themselves from him, nobody asked him to appear with them ect
I think Bush's Legacy will be a Badly Failed Foreign Policy, Bad Economic Policies ect ans when he was in Office, American International Intelligence was a Contradication in terms, all he ever said was "It was a result of Faulty Intelligence" that seems like he used that everytime he was wrong or we ran into a problem of some kind, if we had that bad of Intellignce why did he do nothing to correct it, he was Commander and Chief, it was his job to correct what was wrong or directthse who needed it to be corrected
And my apolgies to all if i deviated to much from the topic

It was not so much Faulty Intelligence, it was Bush's attitude that he knew more than anyone and everyone. He didn't listen to people who disagreed with him and usually got rid of them because these people were not on his team. Bush was a Meglo Maniac who felt he was God

It's far too early to bejudging any of these men in terms of history. Perhaps Nixon, it being nearly 40 years ago since he left office, but that's still a little early. It's my feeling that a president would have to be out of office for at least fifty years before we could get a true perspective on his administration. Much less than that and you still have the problem of partisanship.

That doesn't mean people can't have their opinions. Just that there's little justification for claiming an accurate ranking, especially for Bush and Obama, and even for Clinton. History and historians must take a longer view of such things.
