There is, I believe, a dream we all share that holds true day after week after month after year ....

[Stinky The Clown]

This is the dream that George bush will be seen as one of the worst presidents in history.

The majority of the American public continues to hold a negative view of him. While Obama gets slammed for this or that failing, few doubt the root causes are all George bush's fault. On issue after issue, one hears how Obama's effort to fix one of george's Messes wasn't the right strategy or was poorly executed. Notice, thou, that few lay the root cause at Obama's feet. Everyone knows the fundamentals of the multiple crises we face are the result of george having been in the presidency for eight years too many.

A subset of the dream that George bush will be seen as one of the worst presidents in history is that he knows it and is forever painfully aware of it. While I'm less sure this is currently true, evidence points to it's veracity.

George bush will not be sharing the stage with Barack Obama for a number of reasons, I'm certain. But we can all rest assured that one of them is that he can not bear the obvious direct comparison of winner to loser.

Barack Obama, in the case of bin laden, can rightfully claim "Mission Accomplished."

George bush, swaggerer in chief, can not.
