How will history treat President Bush and Vice President Cheyney?

Question

Today when read about past presidents, history tells us that some were good, i.e. Lincoln, and Roosevelt, and some were not so good, i.e Nixon. What do you think people will be reading in 100 years time about George W. Bush, Dick Cheyney, and their years in the Whitehouse.

Answer 1

That they were the worst, most corrupt Pres and VP ever.

Answer 2

Had we had a Democratic controlled congress a 300 and sixty 5 days in the past I woudl say specific, it extremely is justified. Now i think of we merely ought to tolerate him for something of the dark a protracted time all of us be conscious of because of the fact the Bush administration. Iraq is an unforgiveable catastrophe bought to the yankee public as a want whilst, because it seems, it became one guy's want. i don't care approximately constitutional precendence, if a CEO of a considerable enterprise ran his enterprise the way W runs this united states he'd have been shown the door earlier.

Answer 3

I think history will be unkind. The general theme is to answer crisis with ideological talking points rather than competent, professional, practical, and effective action and policy.

The Iraq war - an unmitigated disaster that international diplomatic pressure likely would have resolved without war (as it did with Lybia, and seems likely to with N Korea and Iran) ,
The failure to contain Al-queda - All of our resources should have been thrown at this instead of the Iraq side-show which is now the show.
50% increase in the national debt in just 7 years, when prior to taking office it was actually going down. The historians of the future will still be paying for this, along with your great grandchildren.
Hurricane Katrina
FISA-Gate
Plame-Gate - out of control, vindictive VP and his Lying Chief of staff
The Justice Department scandal and Lying attorney General
Politicizing the Surgeon General's office

Answer 4

It will by far the worst in history even worst than Hoover that had the Big Depression. There isn't anything that they have done that is worth really being in History, I think they skip this whole 8 years with Chimpy and Al Capone. What can they say that will interest anyone, what they say nothing but derogatory things about this whole 8 year period. It will only bring shame if the history uses this 8 years for anything , just drop it out of sight out , out of mind so the story goes.

Answer 5

The same way the Brits treat Guy Fawkes. Except no one will ever do a cool graphic novel with a hero who wears a Bush mask.

Answer 6

It all depends on who writes the message. If a liberal writes it, he will be held to count for no WMDs and getting us into Iraq.

But the same can be said about Jimmy Commy Carter. He sold out 34 Americans for 400 days to get his Nobel Peace Prize.

Answer 7

Probably the worst ever. Wasted 6 Trillion dollars couldn't catch bin laden, couldn't establish democracy, never found any WMD's, oversaw the most corrupt government in history and started WWWIII.

Answer 8

History will treat Cheney/Bush/Rove like the crooks they are. They will make Nixon look like a choir boy.After all, he only listened in on the Democratic headquarters, Bush listened in on the entire country!

Answer 9

They will be remembered as courageous leaders who protected America when Liberals wanted to appease the terrorists. Worst president of 20Th century was by far Jimmy Carter.

Answer 10

History will shredd them to pieces. They are leaving a lousy legacy and the path they took this great nation on is the worst in our Nation's history.

Answer 11

I am afraid that I have misplaced my crystal ball. I would hope history would judge fairly. As far as Nixon, other than Watergate, history was not that unkind to him. Are you showing bias ?
