Dubya's place in history is already being cast by historians at America's Universities and it is not off to a good start.

Here's one of my favorite assessments:

My assessment is that George W. Bush’s record on running up debt to burden our children is the worst since Ronald Reagan; his record on government surveillance of citizens is the worst since Richard Nixon; his record on foreign-military policy has gotten us into the worst foreign mess we’ve been in since Lyndon Johnson sank us into Vietnam; his economic record is the worst since Herbert Hoover; his record of tax favoritism for the rich is the worst since Calvin Coolidge; his record of trampling on civil liberties is the worst since Woodrow Wilson. How far back in our history would we need to go to find a presidency as disastrous for this country as that of George W. Bush has been thus far? My own vote went to the administration of James Buchanan, who warmed the president’s chair while the union disintegrated in 1860-61.

History will record the United States has having invaded a sovereign nation without cause or provocation. It will record the United States as the aggressor, not the president. It's us and our future children that will have to live with that. Not to mention the horrendous tax burden they'll have to pay.

Like lpkm I belive he will be remembered as Hilter type. In that he got us into a war that is killing many of are own and many innocent lives. And that he lets Religion play to much of a part in his discions and that he didn't catch the man that caused Sept. 11th.

I agree with inmo..., who quoted a web site from George Mason University. This president had the opportunity to become a good president, because he was president in the worst attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor. And he blew it!

Only if the historians are as fire-breathing, mindless, and slanderous as liberals today. Probably not since you have to have facts to back up your views on history. He will be remembered as the Winston Churchill that led the worlds fight against terrorism.

-Very likely, and his legacy will be with us long after he is out of office. Debt, and dishonor, and I agree with jennytayl that it is the United States as a country that will be remembered as being aggressors, and since the country was scared into re-electing him we have become responsible.

2700 service men and woman dead, many more wounded, 10's of thousands of Iraqi, men, woman, and children dead. Starting a war based on a lie. Yes he is a monster, I can not think of one redeeming thing that he has done in his almost 6 years as president.

Truman was unpopular when it came to the Korean War.

Bush sent American troops to take out a guy who had killed hundreds of thousands of his own people. Even Clinton said ( in the nineties) that Sadam could reconstitute his weapons program in several months if allowed. We know he was atleast searching for uranium. How does this make Bush a monster. The number of our troops killed is sad. But it was to take out a dictator who was surely a growing threat toward us and was a constant threat to his own people and the middle east.

As an idiot. As an incompetent jackass, and yes, as a monster. He brought it on himself.
