[Non-Sequitur]

You’re saying that Bush I was greater than Reagan?

No, you're saying we should judge Reagan by how well Bush I did. By any measure, Bush I was a mediocre president.

[Brilliant]

Exactly my point. I judge Reagan to be a better President than Bush I. If Obama or McCain turns out to be a better President than GW, then we’ll “write off” the Bush Presidency. If not, he’s a genius.
