George W. Bush's legacy

1. The attacks of 9/11, which may have been stopped if the president had not ignored the daily briefing titled "Bin Ladin Determined To Strike in US."

2. The invasion of Iraq, a then-unarmed nation that posed no credible threat to us at the time, followed by an endless and very costly occupation.

3. Torture as U.S. policy.

4. Hurricane Katrina, in which 1,836 people suffered a horrible death and countless others were displaced, while Bush partied with McCain and Condi Rice went shoe shopping.

5. Unjustified spying on U.S. citizens.

6. The sorry state of our economy.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

How much more damage can he do in the almost four months remaining? October surprise, anyone?

January 20th cannot come fast enough.

  1. And....imagine, 43% of the country wants another 4 years. What is wrong with these people?
