Some say George W. Bush will go down in history as the worst president we have ever had. I am no historian but there are many reasons why I truly believe he is a top candidate:

1. Foreign Policy: Unilateralism has created strong antagonism world wide. The United States is clearly the bully that everyone loves to hate. We lost support in Europe and we have watched China gain power unchecked.

In Latin America government after government have turned to socialism and many ran on a very anti American platform. Hugo Chaves personifies the failure of US policies in the area.

In the Middle East Hamas has risen and Fatah has fallen. In Iran its Ahmadinejad who unseated Katami, a reformist. Meanwhile in Russia Mr. Putin is slowly returning to the bad ol' days of the USSR. A former KGB officer, he knows first hand how to play the game and if we say anything about human rights violations, all they have to say is they are also fighting terrorism. But we have lost all right to point fingers with renditions, water boarding, Guantanamo and Abu Graib.

2. The Economy: We continue to dismantle any kind of regulation opening the door wide for the World Com, Enron and sub-prime debacles. Deficit spending has sent the national debt through the roof and given the Chinese central bank more say than the Federal Reserve about our economy.
