This highly opinionated article doesn't mince words about Bush's track record -- which the author views as a calamity. While his comments seem unnecessarily offensive, he makes a reasonable argument about the futility of the Bush administration's attempts to restore the president's credibility. Particularly illuminating are quotes from a White House talking points memo obtained by the L.A. Times, which shamelessly touts Bush's accomplishments, without referring to any of his failures.

Deliciously scathing dish on efforts by the Bush Administration to cast a spell on the collective memory of the world and position the the Bush Legacy as a grand success.

The article is well written as it accurately characterizes the calamity of the last 8 years. There are even a few new points of information and a relevant poll.

After reading the other reviews, I honestly expected something better. I suppose Bush-haters will love to lap this stuff up, however I couldn't help but think I had stumbled on the ramblings of a leftist version of Rush Limbaugh--another blowhard commentator whose invective I find difficult to stomach. The only other opinion piece I have ever read that was this inaccurate, this uninformative, and this noxious was written by Air America host Randi Rhodes.

If Al Qaeda blows something up during Obama's term Bush will suddenly look a lot better. This article is dripping with hatred. The left hates Bush because he got elected and served successfully.
