What has Bush done right?

Edited on Sat Jan-07-06 08:58 AM by Onlooker
The only things I can think of are

- He appointed two blacks to major positions. Powell may have been spineless and Rice may be from Mars, but it was good to have those positions filled by people of color.

- He won support for a lot of money to rebuild the areas damaged by Katrina. Most of the money will end up in the wrong places, but even Republicans will have difficulty stealing it all.

I can't think of any other significant Bush accomplishments. Though the economy is doing okay, I think it's mostly because of the housing market. Those who don't own homes are not enjoying the increased ability to borrow. And those who are borrowing will soon max out on that source of revenue.
