I'll say one thing for George W. Bush: He's a better man than Jimmy Carter or Bill Clinton, and he's smarter than Carter. Not much, but that's it.

Oh yes: He's not the worst President in US history. He was better than Carter, Clinton, Grant, Harding, and one or two others.

Carter wasn't dumb, in a technical sense. The guy was a nuke on subs, for gosh sake. He just had crap values and no nose for what was a good or bad idea at the national policy level. And then there was Roslyn (President and MR. Carter, as my dad used to describe them).
