It had to be Cheney and Rove who concocted this "let's let the next guy deal with it" scenario, complete with bonus "Everything was fine when I left here" taunt.<BR/><BR/>Stace had it right when she said that the true legacy of any <BR/>President is his Supreme Court assignments--and look who we've got: Roberts and Alito, two judges that make Thomas look downright liberal. <BR/><BR/>But that's not 100% right. Even in the face of Iran-Contra, Reagan didn't even screw up the international reputation of the US as badly as this asshat. Bush's legacy will be that he reinstated Cold War politics in an era of globalization, reinstituted the deficeit spending (and subsequent energy cost spike)from the 70's, and general treated the office as an autocracy. I'll ake some guy getting BJs in the Oval Office over that any day of the week.meyermeyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07616412813434209892noreply@blogger.com
