That did not require a great amount of prescience, but in failing, the Current Occupant has dragged a lot of the rest of the world down with that failure.

You missed Rush's point. Obama has not failed. Undoing America's status in the world was one of obama's goals and he's enjoyed spectacular success.

The Current Occupant DID fail, in any measure as a human being. He may have “succeeded” in projecting his flawed version upon America, but it was with a great deal of assistance by willing useful idiots, and his own incompetence in recognizing that the policies he introduced were, in fact, a prescription for chaos and apathy for much of the rest of the world.

Epic Fail is still the judgment of history.
