The Boston Globe: Has an interesting article on the view that Bush will be seen as another Truman, low approval at the end while consider great now. The Article states the following, " Neo-cons can stop fantasizing now. Bush is no Truman,.." It is typical of the Main Stream Media, the usual reference points, Iraq, terror. The Elite Media will never forgive Bush 43 for winning in 2000, and yes he did win, if all the votes had been counted like the Democrats wanted in 2000 Bush would have won. In in his time in Office after 9/11 there has not be a serious terrorist attack on the United States, it can be argued that the failure of Intelligence before 9/11 was down to the Clinton Administration, President Bill Clinton had eight years to solve the problem while Bush only had seven months in office. After 9/11 Bush gave freedom to Afghanistan and Iraq, the terror faced by the people has been removed, its up to these countries if they use this freedom. In the Second Term of Truman he faced the the drawn out War in Korea, the Korean War did Truman in, he had low approval ratings due to the War and Scandals. Bush in the future if Obama is weak will be seen as great, his manic bailouts seem odd for a conservative but it can be argued that he does not want to hand over a Great Depression to President Obama. It can be postulated that Truman would have more time for Bush than Bill Clinton.
