for the longest time, (5.00 / 1) (#33)

i didn't think it possible for any subsequent president to surpass fillmore and buchanan as the worst presidents. year by year though, gw has inched his way up (down) the mediocrity column until finally, after (almost) 8 years of diligent stupidity, he has achieved greatness (of a bad sort) in his own term in office.

there's something to be said for that. i'm not sure what, exactly, but something.

bush's view that history will remember him kindly is just another example, possibly the crowning example, of the delusional alternate reality he inhabits. no rational person, similarly situated, could reasonably think that.

I don't actually think... (none / 0) (#36)

... that Bush is the very worst, since he's unlikely to do as much damage as failing to head off the Civil War did. He's close to the bottom, though, and while some things could improve his image, I can't really imagine him rising above the lower middle in the long run.
