Saying he has committed war crimes or done things unconstitutionally is quite another and if that were the case then the Democrats would have been able to make a case by now.
I think I am intelligent enough to be able to say I don't like what is happening yet I don't know how they just "get out of it." |

Sorry just preparing everyone for the inevitable |

And pecos bill makes a telling statement. As poorly as Bush was perceived he still managed to do better than the best that the Democrats could come up with last time around. Wait until we see what happens this time around with McCain and Obama/Clinton.
I'm absolutely dreading going to the polls in November. I'm quite sure I'm not going to be comfortable with my selection no matter who that turns out to be. What does that say about politics today? |

| DAR Fri 5/2/2008 9:04a | But seriously is he a bad President, sure. Is he the worst ever? I'm not sure I was a little kid when Carter was in office. And I'm sure none of us were alive during the Coolidge or Hoover administrations. Don't get me wrong he'll rank towards the bottom on many lists. |

LOL! Good point!
I'm actually glad to be going to the polls this November for the first time in a long time. I truly believe that any of the three finalists will do a far better job than this miserable administration. I don't feel like I'll be choosing between the lesser of two evils for once. |

There has been a much better case for impeachment this time around given the Constitutional violations and war crimes, but I'd suggest the country and Congress just didn't have the stomach for it after the circus that was the Clinton impeachment. The fervor by which vindictive Republicans went after him when a censure would have been more than sufficient, coupled with the fact we were attacked on our own soil, gave Bush all the leeway he needed to trample all over 200 plus years of progress. Impeaching a president at war would practicaly require Bush personally bribing people to vote for the war, or some similar act.

Considering how high his approval ratings were after 9/11, and how much international goodwill he had to work with following that event, only to squander it all over the last 7 years, he surely must be in the running for worst ever from a historical standpoint.
If the economy is able to start turning around before he leaves office, or if Iraq could start winding down by then, perhaps his legacy might be a bit better from a historical perspective. |

You'll notice my real response. |
