State of the President

So, another State of the Union address tonight. The last time I watched Bush give this speech, he convinced me that Saddam Hussein was acquiring nuclear material and that an invasion of Iraq was justified. Bush knew he was at the least stretching the truth, if not outright lying. He lost my trust then, and has done nothing to regain it.

I haven't watched a State of the Union since, and pay scant attention to any of Bush's speeches. I'll skip tonight's speech, too. I'd rather go play table tennis.

Besides, he's in "legacy preserving" mode. Which is a futile endeavor. I've said for a long time that Bush is the worst president of my lifetime. He's quickly plunging toward being one of the worst presidents of all time. Fortunately, just two more years.

Apparently you're too young to remember Jimmy Carter if you think George is the worst of all time. The last thing I want is a repeat of 1976-80.

One of the worst. And Jimmy Carter didn't leave the country worse than he found it (like Johnson, Nixon, and Bush Jr.). As for being too young to remember...Gerald Ford was the first president I voted for.
