GWB's presidential library in Dallas, Texas is now open. Legacy? The controversies of the Bush administration from Iraq, the “global war on terror,” the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the fallout from the 2008 financial crisis come to mind. So do crimes against humanity.
Some legacy. And even his supporters think that he won’t win the kind of historical vindication THEY once thought inevitable. Vindication??!! Damned fools!
His presidency was based on deceit. Or maybe it evolved into Meantime he and his buddies reaped tremendous financial gain on war accessories and oil.
Supporters describe the new library as a "blunt and forthright assessment of the Bush presidency". Visitors will experience a "frank discussion of what was done and why it was done. . . it doesn’t shy away from controversy. The museum takes on the biggest issues for which the president was criticized.”
Objective assessment? I don't really care. I won't be visiting.
I, among many others, have had, directly and indirectly, enough of the GWB fallout. My only hope is that one day, he AND his accomplices are brought to justice.
