Now although, this isn't a phrase that can be applied to most, if not all, of the modern era republicans (only a tiny portion of them could ever be considered "great"), it is something that can be truthfully said of others.

This attempt by Bush to rehab his "legacy" is pretty fucking disgusting,

3. When he was in office he said that (and governed like) he didn't care
Now he's wet his pants over it.

Btw, I hate to acknowledge that he's had an epiphany.

4. They have been rewriting Reagan's legacy for 20+ years
I would imagine junior's will be propagated much the same by a right wing media. And lets not forget who says what goes in school text books, Texas!

6. God yes
I almost forgot about that... It's like a license to further dumb down the future of America.
