George W. Bush’s legacy as the worst president in history presents an opportunity to the next president. If Barack Obama acts timidly and only tweaks the failed Bush policies, he can expect to be caught in the same quicksand that has brought us to this point. If Obama acts boldly, he can create a legacy as a leader who brought the United States out of depression and war, into a time of peace and prosperity. On the heels of “the worst president ever,” Obama can be the best president yet.

ROTFL! Methinks history will judge George W. Bush much more kindly, once we've had to endure the Obamanation for a few years.

Unfortunately, the economy will more likely improve (by late 2009) than get worse ..... due in large part because oil/gasoline is at $1.49 a gallon --- which is the same thing as a HUGE tax cut for EVERYONE!!

Of course Obama policies would have kept gasoline at $7 a gallon, but the media and Democrats (same thing) will never allow that narrative to see the light of day.

People don't realize the effect energy prices have on the entire economy. I've said many times before that it was panic over possible $8/gallon fuel (in mid-2008) which scared many companies into slamming the brakes on growth and job creation.

In fact, methinks this entire energy spike was a contrived plot to destroy the Bush-Republican economy just in time for the 2008 election.

Combined with falling real estate, and overleveredged banks, etc ..... it was a deadly combination for the Bush Administration.

I would not want to be in the Obamasiah’s shoes - He’s going to have to pull of Jesus like miracles just to satisfy the expectations of those who voted for him. If he does not deliver on everything he’s promised the brainless masses that voted for him, his will be the most failed Presidency in this nation’s History.
