It would be a lot easier if those who intensely dislike President Bush would also be a little more moderate in describing his presidency and how history might judge him.

BP, you may wish to skip my posts then. The destruction he has caused is just unimaginable as far as I'm concerned. I could do jot and tittle on that but I won't. I've done that here. And in other places on SI--Bill's thread, Faultline's old thread, etc.

When I do, I'll try to remember your feelings, however.

The thread rule is that posters should be treated with decorum but politicians can be ripped to shreds to your heart's content. That includes all pols from all parties.

The fact that Bush slid from 80% approval after 9/11 to his current cellar says a lot about his presidency, and explains a lot of the venom aimed his way. It is far from a minority view to regard him as a screwup.
