Today, President Bush continued his conversation regarding his legacy, even as the country’s economic crisis worsens, the two war fronts show few signs of improvement as well as his administration moves to enacting last minute legislation that shall be detrimental to the environment on behalf of years to come.
During a Washington forum yesterday that marked World AIDS Day, Bush said “I would hope that when it’s all said as well as done, people say, ‘This is a guy who showed up to solve problems.’
”And when you have somebody say there’s a pandemic that you can help, as well as you do nothing about it, then you have frankly disgraced the office.”
It’s true that this admin’s efforts battling HIV in Africa have netted results, but on an estimated evey other front, Bush’s legacy shall be among the worst in American history. Read about his legacy talk here: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/12/01/AR2008120102452.html
Meanwhile, Vice President Cheney, in an ABC interview, admits that he was instrumental in bringing the controversial practice of waterboarding into utilize against our enemies. This admission, on national television with no sign of concern or remorse, shows that Cheney is among those who would utilize torture under the pretense of keeping America safe. http://abcnews.go.com/video/playerIndex?id=6468400
His surefire straigh talk might be evidence that he, as well as others including the president himself, may be expecting that a pardon before Bush leaves office on January 20, 2009 shall protect them from prosecution at the end of they leave office.
Truly, modification can’t come fast enough…
