will this be "dubyas" legacy

It appears that in every political venue he is losing ground. he lost "karl rove",gonzales,warner,and craig in less than a month. the latest on the "IRAQ WAR" IS bad at best,awful most likely. his immigration views are absolutely off the wall,his defiance of the will of the american public (iraq,immigration,wasteful spending etc.)who are his real boss has hurt his party beyond immediate repair.
How many more signals will it take before the senate and the house put the restraints
on him or impeach him?
I see absolutely no way that history can re-write his inequities to make him appear anything but inept.

1. I predict my great grandchildren will read that he was
obstinate
inflexible
overly insulated by a staff that lacked in public service orientation

and presided over

the dawn of swiftboating,
the erosion of public trust in the administration
the weakening of the boundary between church and state and
near-destruction of our military resources.

Helluva guy to have a beer with, though. :shrug:

2. I recently drove into Texas, and for the first time saw a welcome
sign" Welcome to Texas proud home of president george w bush". My first thought (after I threw up a little) was, how long will that sign stay up? My second thought was, what will they do when he moves back to his real home in Maine? I assume the for sale signs are already in his crawford garage.

8. I've been wondering if
the next president will be required to turn Bush (and members of his administration) over to the Hague for war crimes.

I would support such an effort, and it would be the first real step in rejoining the community of nations.

5. Bush will forever be known as the Eric Cartman of presidents
according to Wiki...

"Cartman is one of four central characters in the series and often acts as a catalyst for their adventures through his over-enthusiasm and selfishness. Cartman is notably eccentric, often reacting in violent and over-dramatic ways to events he dislikes and openly expresses his hatred of any race or group of which he is not a member, particularly of the Jews due to his rivalry with Kyle Broflovski, leading to him idolising Adolf Hitler. He often manipulates others, at which he is very adept, to meet his own ends, regardless of the consequences to other people, even if it can result in deaths and destruction."

"Cartman's personality has notably changed over the course of series. While always self-centered and bigoted, he was portrayed as more of an immature brat in the earlier seasons. As the seasons progressed, his personality became more aggressive and cunning, eventually crossing the line into outright sociopathy, while his bigotry morphed seamlessly into Nazi-like hatred. His abilities to manipulate other people into doing what he wants have become keener, along with his overall intelligence (though he still can be extremely stupid)."

7. The only thing that could save his legacy is if
we make Iraq a peaceful true Democracy and not have it come under the control of Iran and all out civil war doesn't break out. What are the chances of that happening? But the fool keeps trying even though it means thousands more deaths and expenses just because he just CAN'T admit DEFEAT....bad for his legacy.

He'll NEVER admit defeat...so the war will continue until the Dems are in power and then history can say bush was winning but those wimpy Dems let us be defeated...just like Viet Nam. That's why he recently compared Iraq to Viet Nam. The man is a thick, stubborn, self centered, delusional FOOL.

I'm listening to him on C-SPAN now and it's taking all my willpower to keep from throwing up or spitting on my own TV screen!

9. This is why you don't put the loser in the White House...
Now, if the Supreme Count learns this lesson, we'll be a lot better off.
