He did appoint a few good justices in Alito and Roberts, and did hold the line on taxes, but that's about all.
He is a man worth hating, even though in person one might not loathe him.
Obama appears to be just an opportunistic panderer with no regard whom his policies injure. But he has not done anything and that's our prime hope, is that he's a big talker but does less than he advertises. Friendly supporters have assured me that my worst fears will not be realized because he won't want to become too unpopular. I hope you people are correct.
But presently, Bush will be known as the Great Mistake.
