It does seem a little unfair to hold a "Bush Bash" without giving acknowledgement to his supporters. He has very high approval ratings, even though he got less than half of the people to vote for him.
Honestly, I haven't liked any President from Eisenhower to the present, though there were good and bad things about each one (in retrospect).
I'd be much happier with an intellectual like George Will for President, someone who could explain things and make sense. Even if I disagreed with their agenda.
We are living in a "new world order", which has been coming since Ronald Reagan tripled the national debt in an enormous arms race, which ultimately bankrupted the Soviet Union, and won the cold war. Good or bad? I despised Reagan at the time, but maybe he was right...?
What GWB is doing now is on the scale of Reagan. He may not understand what he is doing, and that is scary, but the plans for the "war on terror" were made long before he became President. And we can hope for the best.
At least history won't call him a "do nothing" President, hah!
