Still has a way to go to Harry Truman's 29%.

And history looks kindly at Harry.

Truman made some decisions that made him unpopular.

He saved Europe from communism with the Marshall Plan.

Is Bush's plan for the middle east any less radical?

History is a harsh mistress. I for one don't expect (mostly liberal/leftist) historians to look back at the Bush years as a wonderful, exciting time.

They give grudging respect to Reagan because his results are difficult to argue with. Bush's results may be easier to argue against if he leaves the Mid East a mess and he limps out of office as an unpopular and ineffective president.

Anybody expecting historians to take a shine to Dubya hasn't been paying attention.
