I also agree with ratbastid that presidencies can't really "fail". The union is intact and the country exists basically as it did prior to W taking office. There is no immanent threat of disolution. Sorry, but I just can't buy into the idea that any 4 year administration can be a "success" or "failure" in political terms.

You and RB are absoultly correct, but the "in" thing to do on this board is to try and pin as much crap on Bush as is possible, it has turned into a looney left rah-rah place where someone can cut and paste anything to prove their point and the rest will post cheers and follow right along.
From personal opinion this presidency is a great success,
the value of my home has doubled, my investments and retirement savings have grown, I bought a buisness which is thriving, and I havent had anyone try and blow me up in 5 years.
