What will Bush's legacy be?
927989
Economic failures - taking a record budget surplus and turning it into a record deficit.\n\nWar - A rush to judgment following 9/11 and thus getting the nation embroiled into a never-ending war in Iraq which has cost countless lives.\n\nLies, Thievery, Deceit - Look at the 2000 election that covers all 3, but let's not stop there.  Let's add Moral Degredation to the list and then we can include Foley, Abramoff and other fun people - oops, let's not forget his good friends at Enron.\n\nMaking the Country A Joke - mostly by his misstatements and mispronounced words as well as such things as his famous "back-rub" for the leader of Germany.\n\nTurning his back on education - Concentrating instead on standardized tests so that kids come out of schools now knowing how to take a test, but knowing little else.  A recent survey showed America was something like 49 out of 50 countries in the world when it came to education.\n\nIgnoring the Plight of Disaster Victims - Talk to the Katrina victims who still have no place to live and are waiting for government aid and housing while there are thousands of empty trailers sitting around empty.\n\nTax Cuts For The Rich - catering to the wealthy while watching the erosion of the middle class.\n\nHigh Gas Prices - Did everyone enjoy paying $3 or more for a gallon of gas?  \n\nOverall - The Bush legacy will be one of Failure, Failure and more Failure.  Scholars generally agree that the worst President in history was James Buchanan in the mid-1800's.  It's time for James to move over, here comes Dubya to take his place.

For clarification, Bush was not elected, he was selected, and no I don't think he will be held accountable.  I do think, however, he will be labeled the worst president in recent history.  Bush is not an intelligent person, and everyone knows that.  He was just lucky there were conservatives on the Supreme Court to select him as president back in 2000.

With Bush at the wheel, who knows?

The Iraq War will clearly be the defining event of the Bush presidency, regardless of how things turn out in the Middle East. He has staked virtually his entire administration on Iraq.\n\nThe other key policy will be the budget deficit, which increased dramatically during this administration. Bush squandered a $5.6 Trillion surplus on tax cuts.

I too believe that George W. Bush is AWESOME and is THE MAN and I too am proud that I voted for him twice. I will miss George W. Bush when he leaves office but I hope that his brother and current Governor of Florida Jeb Bush is the next President of the United States of America, that way George W. Bush's legacy is still continue and so that Americans who complain about the current President Bush can deal with another four years of another President Bush.

I think I will remember him for being the head of the most inept, corrupt administration ever. His taking a budget surplus and making it the hugest deficit in history, and his tax cuts to the very rich while cutting programs for the poor. I will remember him for being the shame of America for starting a war for little or no reason. Every thing I will remember him for will be cast in a negative light.

He can't. President Bush only has a little over two years left, and it's time for him to start thinking about his legacy. At this point nobody likes him (not even his dog). If he is going to do anything REALLY productive before the Republicans in congress and the senate COMPLETELY turn on him, he's going to have to stop listening to his advisors, stop listening to his wife, stop listening to the Pentagon, stop listening to the press, and sit and think about why he REALLY wanted to be President Bush in the first place.

You will not get an honest answer for this question. PC is what you'll get.\n\nRealistically. that's not going to happen anytime soon in USA. He'll not make it that far because he'll be assassinated when he's nominated.

George Bush, or is it the other way around.

The only place Bush will stand trial is in the court of public opinion. \n\nDon't worry, soon Congress will start senate and house investigations of the dealings of the white house during the past six years. Possible impeachment and removal will follow. He could stand trial for any accusations afterward unless given a pardon like Tricky Dick Nixon was given.

No Bush should lead the free country- because once it does-it will no longer be free...

Yes, History will show Bush to have been the ruination of our nation, the masturbatory greed and egotism will end up being the final blows to conservativism, and people everywhere will realize that corporations and big money tricked them and fooled them. Bush will be known as the president who was so bad he forced the population to realize that America had become at least an oligarchy instead of a democracy.\nBush will be known as the most evil president ever to get into office. He will go down in history as a prime example of what evil is, and what mistakes not to make, and how to identify such decay cycles. The Bush admin will be added to the decaying Roman civilization and other such civilizations as examples of how religion and politics and nationalism and propaganda and greed can cement the doom of a civilization, and, hopefully, we can prevent that doom for ourselves by backtracking against all of the evil things the Bush admin has done, once wwe impeach the lot of them.

I think George Bush and this administration will be in the Civics Books right next to Richard Nixon. The politics are very similar with Watergate, and the Patriot act. Both are spying on Americans. Hopefully when Congress changes Bush will be impeached and tried for treason to the American people. It would be a great day for America, and Democracy. Standing up for the Bill of Rights of the people is what patriotism is all about.
