Legacy, what is shrubs biggest contribution to Our country or Society?
Besides staying the coarse and turning millionaires into billionaires, is there anything redeeming about this man?

2. The "war on drugs" will have much better reults.......
a series of ads showing bush grinding his jaws, stuttering incoherent, nonsensical sentences, falling off bicycles, bandaged from "choking on a pretzel", would all do wonders for the anti-drug crusade.

Kids, this is what years of drug and alcohol abuse will do to you. Please, stop to think before taking that toke, popping that pill, inhaling that solvent, swigging from that bottle, snorting that line or putting that needle in your arm.

Do you want to end up like THIS!

3. The Right has lost its monopoly on patriotism
Dubya's reign of terrible error has forced the uniformed military and the intelligence community to question their previously unthinking allegiance to the Republican Party.

At the same time, many of us on the Left have developed a real outrage at the various treasons committed by the neocons in this Administration.

Both developments are very healthy.

6. He has shown the country what Republicans are really like.
With luck, this dark cloud should have the silver lining of inoculating the country against future Republicans, especially those named Bush.

7. A fanstastic

Bad Example


(BTW, it's course, not coarse. Although an argument can be made for the appropriateness of the latter.)

9. Reminded us that someone is worse than Nixon
He has surpassed Richard Nixon in paranoia, blind arrogance and criminality. He is also an excellent example of how to get in touch with the Republicans' inner Fascist.

13. exposed the mass media: made clear a true public broadcaster
is a necessity (and none of this skrimping; public service can only work as well as its workforce are dedicated, and skrimping on THEM means the society is just pretending that the pbs job has value..if you want to see what happens to public service broadcasters, just look atr cbc in canada- the workforce thinks they soon privitize the joint, so their unions go crazy trying to extract every benefir, which angers not only rightists, but the ordinary people who don't quite understand that the underrfunding of public media wants them to abandon it, and they end up with a hitler leading them in 'enforced' prayers)
all the structural weaknesses in US society were exploited by the busheviks, so why not fix them? and a well funded pbs part of that..knowlege is power ferchrissakes

He taught a lot of people to do a little research before you vote.

in three years (or sooner hopefully) when he steps down.
