Decent enough point about Bush...we could've had two loons put on SCOTUS.

Thomas Jefferson is definitely one of my favorite Presidents. Teddy Roosevelt was also another great President. Ronald Reagan is another top one on my list.

Roberts was a perfectly fine choice. He's too conservative, but he's capable of the learning necessary to overcome that. Alito is a clown. Even Bush thought Harriet Miers would be better, and he was probably right for once. I don't expect Alito to have a long tenure on the court. He simply isn't cut out for the job. The advantages of being able to spend more time with his family may become evident to him a lot sooner than people expect...

That is all the Dictator accomplished in 7 years? That autta bring us back from 3rd world status.

You forgot to mention he shreaded our constitution into ribbons.

The Decider should give our constitution to Iraq. I hear they need one and what the hell.......we ain't using it.

Bush is universally recognized as the WORST President in history. Even the DEAD rose up to vote and he's a landslide winner in this category.

I'll reserve my judgment on who is the best after Obama brings this country out of the Dubya Dark Ages and gets this country back on the road to enlightenment over 2 terms. Hopefully, he can replace some of these conservative idiots on the Supreme Court as well.

Obama '08!

Silly huh? Where would you like me to start? Hmmmmm lets see.

The following is good enough reason for we the peons, oops I keep making that mistake....we the people to impeach this bum and hang him from the same rope as Saddam Hussein.

The offense of wiretapping surveillance in defiance of the law
The offense of lying to induce America to support a war
The offense of reckless indifference to the lives and welfare of American troops
The offense of torture in violation of U.S. and international laws and treaties
covering up the war deceptions with the leak of misleading classified information.

Want more????

He plundered a nation's resources. Initiated illegal wars. Bullied most of the world. Slaughtered innocents in the name of spreading freedom. Starved the poor to feed the rich. Allowed tens of thousands to suffer or die in New Orleans simply because they are poor and black.

And dont forget this one: In May 2003, Bush landed on an aircraft carrier in a flight suit, stood under a banner proclaiming "Mission Accomplished," and triumphantly announced that major combat operations were over in Iraq. Asked if he had any regrets about the stunt, Bush said he would do it all over again. How many Americans have died and left their blood on bushys hands since then?

I like this one: In 2000, candidate George W. Bush promised to protect the Social Security surplus. As President, he spent all of it.

With people like you who still think this waste of human flesh has anything good in him is one reason our country is heading towards 3rd world status. Wake up !

Washington (how he could balance Jefferson and Hamilton in his cabinet is beyond me), Jefferson (dovish on the war with Britian, but a true champion of republican virtue), Jackson (although he was quite a chieftan, he took a strong stance against the BUS), Lincoln (chieftan, but fought for a just cause), Teddy Roosevelt (an avid hunter, conservationist and outdoorsman), Coolidge (great on limited government), JFK (it's amazing how far left the dems have moved since the 60's), and Reagan (the champion of the modern conservative movement).

Bush is a P-r-e-s-i-d-e-n-t. Repeat that slowly 5 times and maybe you will stop with the silly "dictator" word.

And he hasn't shredded the constitution... he is doing his best to prevent another terrorist attack (his best except closing the border).

Thumbs down "What Me Worry?" Dubious Dubya

Desertsun...I knew I liked where your head is at, so to speak. Dubious, dimwit, dismal dubya is certainly at the bottom of any thinking person's list of successful leaders. What a sad travesty of an adminsitration this has been.
