The simple fact is that Bush has been at least as good as both of his

"...as good as..." ???

Goodness has nothing to do with it.

He has done way more harm to the Constitution and has completely
destroyed any international goodwill, save for a few despotic regimes
scattered around the planet, we may have once enjoyed.

Then there's the whole deal with the economy in the ditch...

George W Bush has done no more damage to our Constitution than did his
Dad, or Bill Clinton.

As to "international goodwill" Any "goodwill" Bush has cost us, has been
lost because Bush has had the backbone to put our national interests
ahead of the interests of others. Since this is part of what he is
supposed to do as our president, I see no reason why I should worry
about any "goodwill" that has been lost.


"...backbone..."??? WTF?

It takes no courage to kill by remote control and to send other peoples'
kids to die for the Empire. A courageous president would tell his
people that the USA must learn to live within its means and that the
country must not oppress people around the world because we need their
resources for our machines.
