Where will Bush rank in history?

[Wetzelbill]

My guess is slightly below a bag of dirt and a piece of shit. Probably still higher than Cheney and Carrot Top though. -WB

1. Bush simply ranks.

[90-percent]

2. in between

in between Jeffrey Dahlmer and Ted Bundy.

-90% Jimmy

[90-percent]

3. or in between

or in between Jeffrey Dahlmer and John Wayne Gacy if Bush only painted better.

-90%

4. dead last, no doubt about it

Other failures did not inherit a USA with such grand world standing and power, and others did not oversee the drop in that standing and the great economic decline of the country.

6. There is nothing that can redeem him

I can't see any possible redemption. If Iraq somehow becomes a great beacon of democracy, it won't be because of him, that's for sure. His greatest legacy might be that he was so bad it opened the door for the first Black president to be elected. I remember an article in some magazine where white supremacist group leaders were going to vote for Obama. They were like: "Well, he is an N-word, but then again, Bush really effed up the economy..."

7. Not ranks, He is rank.

Rank like a bag of spoiled cabbage left out in the sun for hours covered in milk that was a week past its expiration date.

10. Chris Rock said it best (although I can't find the quote).

Bush was the worst President ever, not just of the United States, but of anything. PTA Presidents, Condo Association Presidents, etc. -- nobody was worse.

11. It legitimately is not an exaggeration to say

Bush easily could be the worst President in American History.

I can say with confidence that he is the worst post World War Two President hands down!

I don't see how history is going to treat him any better. I think he is one of the few Presidents who actually may look worse as history moves forward.

Objectively, his work in Africa is the only positive accomplishment his administration has had in eight years. And that's not enough to wipe away the historic blunders of his administration.


The only question that will stay with me forever is..... "How did Bush become a two term President?" That doesn't say a lot for us as a Country.

12. As the very BEST president

to have darts thrown at his picture. IF you can stomach the pic, that is.
