President Bush ranks pretty high, in my book.

Bush has handled tough times for years and he can handle them. He is strong and has his faith in his God. He'll be fine. As for history? They will record him as the greatest President ever.

He will be remembered just fine by history.

Right now we have work to do to make sure we have a history.

More wishful thinking from the Hate Bush Monitor. Sorry but these people have ZERO credibility due to their absolutely blatant cheerleader for Kerry. Bush is going to be President until Jan 2009 and no amount of posturing by the UnChristian Monitor can change that fact by as much as a minute. You are irrelevant John Hughes, learn to live with it.

Isn't it odd that this shows up just a couple posting after this article:

Its like someone finds a need to counter a positive article
with a so-so one.

He will be ranked far, far above Clinton.

If he would close the borders, I'd make him a Saint.

He will be remembered quite well by history because I will be one of those writing it.

Y'see John, I hope I can call you John, history is a far better judge than all the hacks and pundits whose perception of a presidency is colored by their biases.

History will look back at the presidency of George Bush and rate it well, I believe.

He won’t go down as one of the greats, and won’t go down as one of the worst Presidents. He will be remembered as doing a good job on the war on terror, hopefully be remembered for laying the groundwork to overturn Roe v Wade but will be remembered also and for missing opportunities on spending and the borders. Ultimately I think he will be remembered for shifting the spending habits of the Republican party leftward.

Just remember what it was like for President and Mrs. Reagan in the mid-eighties...especially once the dreaded Christians began to back them.

History will remeber Bush as the one who stood up for America, and did the tough things that needed to be done, like Lincoln, while Clinton will simply be remembered as a corrupt footnote betwwen Reagan and Bush II....

Who today remebers anything about Andrew Johnson?

Long after all the posturing by the pretend intellectual of the Dinosaur Media like John Hughes are nothing but a faded memory, school children around the world will be studying the Presidency of GW Bush. The psuedo-intellectuals of the Dinosaur Media are irrelevant to modern life. Pity they seem unable to grasp that reality.
