What will Bushes legacy be?
I have a bushbot in a chatroom bragging of Bushes "accomplishments". None of them are even worth really mentioning (tax cuts, freedom on march). What will be the true Bush legacy? Heres what I believe he will be remembered for; two things:

Turning surplus into record deficits with givaway to the rich

Starting, then losing, a war based on lies.

Hopefully massive voter fraud will eventually be added to this list (This isn't a "wish list").

5. His name will be placed on anything not already carrying St. Ronnie's name
But historians will report he was the worst president in the history of the United States.

There are two realities.

The first is the one we live in: the one created by the Republicans.

The other is also the one we live in: the one created by fact.

8. I do not think so,,, his name will not be able to be found on anything
The Navy is naming a carrier after his dad.

The CIA named their building after his dad.

IMHO, you will see his name unfortunately on as many things as Clinton's. :(

6. Our first (openly) fascist president.
Many called Franklin Roosevelt "a traitor to his class."

Harry Truman was looked upon as a haberdashery salesman for years.

Lincoln was despised by many in the north.

Today, all are viewed as "great presidents."

About half the country views Junior as "a great ... ". Christ, I can't even finish that sentence without my fingers recoiling from the keyboard.

My belief is that George W. Bush will, at best, in the future, be seen as a buffoon.

7. This is bush's legacy, this is bush's hell he will never escape
http://ericblumrich.com/year.html 3 minute video



Legion

Enveloped in a sentiment,
a sound that rushes over me.
Engage an impulse to pretend
I have a faith as pure.
Not forgetting what it means to dream.
Indulging everything.
Entertaining thoughts that I've the strength
of those I yearn to be.
Cheers and tribute greet the saviours.
Reckless thoughts survive.
Anachronistic and impulsive.

And what will happen?
Will I dream?
I am too scared to close my eyes.
For a second please hold me.
None can change in me these things that I believe.
But I don't know what happens now.
I am too scared to close my eyes.

13. Great Leader. President for 20 years after attacks and martial law.
Destroyer of all those who hate us for our freedoms. Silencer of all those who dont follow the American crusade or Jesus.


I just have a feeling that he's going to be there long after 08.
