GREAT PRESIDENT OR MISERABLE FAILURE

There is a movement afoot to link the words "miserable failure" to George W. Bush. I think it is kinda strange for a group of people to want to do something like this. But it is happening, and it is, rightly, drawing a lot of wrath in the blogosphere.

So, what has that wrath wrought? A movement to link the words great president with George W. Bush, and the words miserable failure to President Carter. It's called "Google Bombing."

Now, I'm not one to think of either in this regard. I certainly don't think of George W. Bush as a miserable failure, nor do I think of Jimmy Carter as a great president, yet neither would qualify, in my opinion, for the opposite labels. George Bush has been a great president in several matters, and has been a miserable failure on others. In the same vein, Jimmy Carter was a great president in certain ways, and a miserable failure in others.

So, what I'm saying is that I think efforts to Google Bomb either term - miserable failure or great president is a little jeuvenile. The effort to do so will probably be a miserable failure in and of itself. In any case, a great president probably wouldn't care how he showed up in a Google Search.
