26. The asterix Presidency
Every time history books mention George W. Bush's name there will be an asterix or a footnote number next to it for voluminous references to the disaster he was for the country and the planet. Just like we wrap up the persecution and paranoia of McCarthy as the McCarthy Era, we will have the generic term The Bush Era to refer to the loss of our standing in the world, all due to one Administration.
