Bush was cursed from the get-go by virtue of the "sins of the father".

"Those of you who are left will waste away in the lands of their enemies because of their sins; also because of their fathers' sins they will waste away.
But if they will confess their sins and the sins of their fathers....

The Bush family better get busy with the confessions.
but not only the Bushes - redneck christian America also.

Sincerely,
PC

There is no legacy, what could have been nerver was. You cannot take a person who is into himself so much and asked him to see what his fellowman could use or need. The sad part of this legacy is that President Bush nerver saw himself as a Presdent but just a man who could will his power from this position giving to him by the people.

George Bush is a lightweight who was manipulated by a strong experienced team. All the stories of him not asking questions or not knowing things, like the difference's between a Shiite and a Sunni, showed he was not really engaged in forming the decisions. Cheney and others did the influencing and heavy lifting.

His forgetting why decisions in Iraq made by Bremer were different to the agreed strategy of the White House is unbelievable - imagine Clinton or even Bush Snr not remembering a crucial set of decisions....well maybe Reagan would have forgetten as well..

When you compare Bush with presidents since Roosevelt, he has been an absolute disaster, give me Nixon any day.

The George legacy is crap! The man, and I use the term loosely, is a criminal, a liar, a pandering fool who has turned his country into a Fascist state worthy of Hitler and Mussolini, he has used illegal and immoral weapons and is guilty of Crimes acts against Humanity; He has ordered torture without remorse, created gulags and cesspools of depravity for "enemies", flouted the basic ideals of a civilized country and the Rule of Law, illegally and immorally invaded foreign countries, trashed the economy of America and the world, made a mockery of the political process in America, gave his henchmen and cronies unrestricted access to government power and allowed them to loot the national treasury, gutted all restraint on the rabid greed of American corporations, pandering to the inane, swindling charlatans of the Evangelical industry, politicalized the government in the model of Hitler and Stalin, created private mercenaries answerable only to him and his deputies, created private judicial tribunals to ensure rule by royal edict, and that is his “good” side! The man is a craven coward, a sniveling cretin, a miserly excuse for a human being, a traitor, and should be shunned by decent society!

George W. Bush's greatest legacy is based on the reason he was elected: as a response to an intelligent, liberal-minded president who was far enough ahead of US mentality to solidify the Republican opposition, which then elected him as a non-president. This swing was great enough that the swing back will also be reactionary. If Democrats can sustain a couple of terms in office, it may be possible to make historic gains in progressive programs. In a sense, GWB will be as responsible for these gains as he was for 9/11.
