Let’s see…a bit of shiny, distracting metal symbolic of the cornerstone of our economic system which it so unhelpful in our day-to-day lives that the public has been adamant in our disgust with it’s implementation, yet The Powers That Be keep insisting they know better than we and keep repackaging the same “solutions” that never actually address our problems - that it looks too much like another, older item and that it’s not accepted by enough outsiders?
Yeah, that sounds just about right, actually.
At least Terrell Owens actually scores touchdowns! Bush’s presidency has been the equivalent of repeatedly running into his own end zone, lying down on the turf and screaming, “TACKLE ME! TACKLE ME!”

Actually, that’s a scary thought. (It gets worse?)
I keep hoping that yin and yang will come back into balance and we’ll see something brighter start to happen. I don’t know exactly what, but something. I mean, we’re overdue, ain’t we?
Oh, shit! Does that mean we’re pregnant?
Only with meaning and pauses, my friend.
Huh. What would you know about menopause? 
If he can restore the dead to life, and rebuild shattered families, homes, communities, and cultures, he is redeemable. So, no fucking way. His misdeeds are so monstrous as to be beyond redemption.
Thomas Covenant, on the deck of the Edmund Fitzgerald?
I don’t know. You have the advantage of me.
If he could do all that and more; if vast parades were held in his honor; if statues of him were erected in every public park in America; if his name replaced God’s in all prayers ever offered and if the ten commandments were attributed to him, I would still regard him as the sorriest piece of low rent garbage to ever hold public office, anywhere or at anytime. That’s just MHO.
The only thing liberals hate more than Bush being wrong is Bush being right.
Therefore, I think there is a chance Bush can be redeemed in the eyes of the American public, but not in the black hating hearts of this board.
I note with interest the fact that Harry Truman’s approval rating hit 22% at one point. Yet history has evaluated him a bit more fairly than the American public did at the time.
So I’ll just bide my time and see.
Just for the hell of it, what would have to happen to justify the death and destruction that he has caused? Or do you think that he’s a pretty good president and some folks are just too blind to see it? Do you think he has done a heck of a job?
as will I. I lived through Nixon and feel that Bush 2 will be seen as the warmongering, liberty stealing , war criminal that I see him as.

Like I’d hate being trampled by a herd of unicorn.
What is worse to me is the realization that thanks to the past Republican congress virtually no effort was made to investigate seriously why we got into his messes, like in the past, the question had to be: why are they so afraid of being investigated? And what is there that remains hidden from the American people?
Like Nixon, I do think many reprehensible items will come to light later, already one has to notice that items like the Downing Street memoes appeared after the first congressional report essentially said that there were no problems, but that was phase one, and that one was missing items that “curiously” would had a bearing in this thread:

We’re six years into the Bush administration but you’re still just guessing on that.
Equally plausible is the possibility that Bush’s remaining supporters will put down the cups of koolaid and realize the rest of us were right all along.
I can’t speak for anyone else, but should we find that Bush was actually right all along? I’d be overjoyed. Seriously. Obviously i’d be annoyed at myself for having judged the situation all wrong, but if it meant that all the bad things that have happend were done for a reason, or were the best case scenario; great! That’s much better than how it appears now.
As a liberal, I take offense that you consider me so filled with hatred that I find the deaths of thousands needlessly better than the deaths of thousands needfully and Bush being right. What have I done to earn your low opinion?
I think any redemption would be worth 1/20th of a cent, which I believe is a mill (thanks, Unca Cecil).
Not worth the paper it’s printed on.
Surely you can point out your favorite example of such a thing.
