neocons conning again
As want to be dictator Bush poll numbers continue to fall, and the iraqi casualties continue to mount, the neocons are now trying to float defeat as victory. They are trying to figure out how to withdraw without admitting they lost. No surprise.
This administration will be remembered for restoring treason to the Whitehouse, the bankrupting of the republic, and a failed imperialist crusade.

[/ QUOTE ] I predict that "failed imperialist crusade", or some words to that effect, will be remembered by nearly all, because it will be in nearly all textbooks sometime in the future. Most presidencies are eventually reduced in most people's memories to just a few memories (Nixon - Watergate, Clinton - an affair, Taft - fat, Cleveland - President twice, etc.). Bush will be a remembered for a disastrous Iraq war. Actually way down the line from now, Bush will probably only be remembered for being the son of another President. -ptmusic

Re: neocons conning again
I think Iraq will very much be remembered along the lines of the Spanish-American war. The roll of W.R. Hearst will be played by Rupert Murdoch and/or Rodger Ailes.
I believe Bush will be remembered for his lack of intelligence and his presidency seen as controlled by others (e.g. Cheney). The neoconservative movement itself will eventually fade away but, as you stated, be seen as part of an underlying imperialist movement supported, at least in part, by American xenophobia brought about by the complacency and sloth of the past 40 years.

[ QUOTE ] Why don't you let history decide, in 30 years from now when we actually see the final result in this war that is when his true legacy will come forward. [/ QUOTE ] LMFAO. A blow job was such a threat to the nation that it required wall-to-wall media exposure and the impeachment of a sitting president. BUT: when American soldiers are getting shot and killed because an unelected fraud lied the nation into a Middle East war -- well, that's the time to "let history decide". Give it 30 years or so. Don't rush into any snap judgments. Just trust Bush. No need for any rash concepts like "accountability" or anything. Ok, yeah, now that you've explained it to me, it all makes perfect sense. NOT. q/q

Re: neocons conning again
So a tangent about Clinton having "sexual realations with that woman" relates how to the legacy of GWB?
Just another angry liberal, I wonder if anyone takes this guy seriously, he could have good "ideas" underneath these crazy posts.

the bankrupting of the republic [/ QUOTE ] The huge deficit, I agree, is terrible and dangerous. But from the tone of your post I will assume you prefered Clinton's surplus, and I can't say that I disagree. But the way I see it, all a surplus means is that the government is taking too much money from its people. IMO, Bush's tax cuts were well-intentioned. But cuts in spending need to go with tax cuts. Maybe I should put it this way: (low taxes and high spending) < (high taxes and high spending) <<<<<<<<< (LOWER TAXES AND LESS SPENDING)
