I'm just curious, what do you consider will be his successes?

He did rather than talked. When action was required he took action.

A trait of leadership is being able to make a decision. It may be the
wrong decision but at least it was a decision. Contrast this with Bush's
predecessor and follower who are afraid to make decisions when the
decision need to be made. Both Clinton and Obama will wait and wait and
then they may make the decision.

Decisiveness is only one trait of leadership, and it definitely helps if
you are right, but I was asking a serious question. I personally think
Bush is the worst President in my lifetime, but you obviously don't. I
was seriously asking what you think his successes will be. I'll give you
Iraq *could* eventually be a success, but what else has he done
successfully?

Bush will be remembered as the President who brought democracy to Iraq and
Afghanistan, dealing severe blows to al-Qaeda worldwide while defeating it
in Iraq, bringing this country back from the results of 9/11, and
preventing another attack during his term.

The taliban are coming back into power in Afghanistan. Bad planning.

They're flexing now that Obama is in the works. Hopefully he won't play the
liberal game and crawl under a shell thinking it will all go away if we
just be nice.
