The legacy of 'W'?

i think this administrations biggest problems are the arrogance they possess, and their lack of being able to adapt if one of their plans fail. too many life long politicians hands in the cookie jar. they have made mistakes, as anyone will, but will NEVER admit to being wrong. i cant believe the the far right isn't screaming about Bush's manipulation of the Constitution, and how they are stripping Americans of their rights. the patriot act was good in thought, but bad in the way it is being executed.Bush's appointees have been nothing but dads friends, and contributors to his career. alot of bad decisions were made here. and smooty, whats up with all the Buchanan bashing? my boy lived right down the road from me

Well the Buchanan bashing wasn't so much bashing but just to point out that he's considered the worst (or one of the worst) for basically doing nothing while the country fell to pieces by saying "Hey, Constitution says I can't intervene" while W is pilloried for doing too much perhaps and saying "I have to do what I need to do. Let's worry about the Constitution later"

Yeah dewd it's all about me. Make it so if you wish. My comment was just like others but I see you quoted me. That's ok.

~same as it ever was, same as it ever was

Don't like the message shoot the messanger.

Sorry I got sidetracked by that little distraction.

Honestly I don't think he's done anything very well. I think he's been a complete disaster between 9/11, the war, the economy ( gas prices through the roof), and Katrina, just to name the major issues.

I agree that his foreign policy (i.e., Iraq) has been a total failure. I don't think, however, that he has been a total failure as a domestic president. The economy has been pretty good; it's not as good as it was during the internet boom, but the economy during the internet boom wasn't as good as it seemed. I don't really fault Bush for Katrina. If you pretty much demolish a city, it's going to take a while to fix it. I also applaud the basic concept of No Child Left Behind. Finally, I have no problem, in fact I support, his tax cuts. I don't care for the Dems slogan "but they're tax cuts for the rich." Those rich guys are already paying more than their share of the budget.

My main gripe with Katrina was their painfully slow reaction time and their lack of a plan. It's not like this was any sort of huge surprise, it was bound to happen some day. I'm not totally blaming Bush because there probably should have been a plan of action in place a long time ago, but since it did happen on his watch he has to be held responsible to a degree.

Plus, and I admit this is a personal gripe of mine, I can't stand how the guy can't even speak correctly, and he comes off so damn smug I just want to strangle him. And as far as charisma and that "it factor" when it comes to leadership, the guy is so completely lacking it's downright embarrassing.

It's funny because when I hear him speak, I can feel myself wanting to tell him to "sound it out....you can read it."

I love this one...

The Raw Story | Cheney tells agency that Vice President's office is not part of the executive branch (http://rawstory.com/news/2007/Cheney_tells_agency_that_Vice_Presidents_0621.html )

I would call it a comedy, but it's pretty sad at this point. Left, Right, whatever.... this is ridiculous.

Sorry to go nuts with the videos... but these are priceless.

Legacy you ask?

I really think that Bush will be considered correct in his ideals, but incorrect in his methods. I think the threat of terrorism is legit, and Bush had the right mindset about it.

He is just simply so flawed in creating the policies (or appointed the correct people to do so) that address his idealistic objectives. I know that sounds generic, but it's the only way I can describe it.

has said that Osama "can run but he can't hide" but ..boy can he hide..We can't find him with missles, satellites, million dollar bribes

Due to the fact that there is MASSIVE bounty on his head and we have had an all out man hunt for him, AND we haven't seen him on the tube, I am assuming he's dead. He's not the type to stay silent this long, and it's not like anyone is going to bring it up that he's dead. At this point he would have said something...Bush killed him. Make that #11.

Has anyone in here seen the most recent episode of Bill Moyers Journal? If you haven't, it's an absolute must see!

OMG, wow. Just wow, that's all I'm going to say.
