What I really LIKE about GWB is the fact that he can tie the democrats up in polictial knots and laugh at their stupidity...Pelosi, Reed, are in the minor leagues.

He will have the biggest and longest laugh when he presents a captured Osama to our military courts for hanging.

George W. Bush is the current president. Why are historians weighing in on a current event/person?

The way GWB is regarded by history won't be written definitively until long after he's out of the White House.

If what's happened in Iraq since Saddam's death is a sign of what would happened after Osama being hanged, then god help us.

You know that would be great, for America regardless if Bush was the one or the next pres....but I think the likelihood is minimal at best.

Won't happen. He's a pair of clown shoes; he's pathetic. I'm embarrassed that he's our president.

Capturing Osama bin Laden wouldn't be terribly good for the US. Executing him would probably be even worse. In terms of game theory, the best thing the US can hope for is that he is marginalized and discredited and/or dies ingloriously or in anonymity. The worst thing would be to have Al Jazeera broadcasting Osama going down guns blazing with an AK-47 fighting off the "infidels".

Capturing, trying, and hanging/executing Osama sounds great to the average American, but it would create alot of side-effects the average person doesn't consider.

Capture Osama? We aren't even looking for Osama.

Of course Bush is one of the worst. What... in nearly eight years... has he accomplished? And that was with a friendly Congress for most of the time. (I know, I know, 2 Supreme Court Justices.)

Goodie for him. But other than that??

Other than the Iraq fiasco... what will his legacy be?
