What will Bush's legacy be?
30 years from now...

"Mr. Smith, who is the President between Bill Clinton and Jedediah Springfield? There is a blank space between them."

The teacher replies "Uh, I'd rather we not talk about that."

.....regarding the Holocaust. They're making sure it will NEVER happen again. Unlike the United Kingdom, which has yet to answer for its genocide and colonial mass murder and oppressive racist past.

13. Too bad.......
Because they're rapidly growing former colonial minority population has of been late getting rather angry with their white Anglo masters who brought them to Mother England to work as their domestic servants and service workers.

3. If we can save our democracy and return
to being a normal country, what I think people will wonder 30 years from now is "how could so many people be so stupid?"

5. According to William F. Buckley: "There will be no legacy for Mr. Bush."
William F. Buckley:

"There will be no legacy for Mr. Bush. I don't believe his successor would re-enunciate the words he used in his second inaugural address because they were too ambitious. So therefore I think his legacy is indecipherable"

When senior conservative intellectuals are telling you there's something wrong with your Republican presidency then you know there's something wrong.

9. WORST. PRESIDENT. EVER.
That will be Bush's legacy. Historians have already indicated he will be ranked at the very bottom of the pile.

I also believe history will tag him as a liar, a drunk, a drug abuser, a hypocrit, and an idiot, along with arrogant, corrupt, bigoted, and disrespectful.

Quite a legacy, eh?

15. Worse then Hoover and Grant
who were at least intelligent, and "tried" and "were in the wrong place at the wrong time."

Down there with James Buchanan and Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge.

And insult of insults - worse then his father.

16. A fine sick evil legacy Darth Cheney is leaving us.......
every time his pet chimp gets on the TV and begs for his banana I want to kick the TV out. It's so annoying seeing these corporate thugs killing our brave men and women in the name of their fucking profits.
