As he leaves the White House at the end of his second term, the President has a poll rating of only 23 per cent, and is widely disliked and even despised. His foreign policy has been judged a failure, especially in view of the long, painful, costly war that he declared, which is still not over.

Yep, read the whole thing here (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/opinion/main.jhtml?xml=/opinion/2008/06/22/do2201.xml).

Enjoy.

A clever ruse, rdamurphy, I'll grant you that.

We'll see how history writes itsself. We'll see.

Most serious historians know it is isn't history until 50-100 years pass. Before then, it's still current events.

IMO, history will show Bush's foreign policy to be very successful. I have doubts it will be so kind to his domnestic policies... but then, other than my tax rate, as I don't care one way or the other about almost any President's domestic policies I won't worry about what history may or may not say about Bush on that score.

But foreign policy, no doubts in my mind at all. Grade: A-

No ruse! SOP!

You can lead a liberal to water - and if you're clever enough, you can even make him drink!

Isn''t that what waterboarding is for?
