Not that I know anything. But, I'm still under the impression that Bush can pull off a decency legacy. He's tried so many bold initiatives, they mostly seem result based.

Yeah, he got Saddam out of Iraq. But, the whole Iraq War thing is going to depend upon whether or not we can get most of our troops out of there, and whether / not Iraq has a civil war. People are getting louder and louder about a civil war there, but they've been saying civil war the whole time, and there hasn't been one yet.

As far as the spending goes, I remember about three months or so ago they were talking about how the federal government had collected $100 billion more in taxes than they thought they were going to. Eventually the economy will pick back up, and from what I've read it's not uncommon in these times for the govt. to collect more taxes than they thought. So, maybe by the end of his term, the deficit won't look so ridiculous. The current argument saying the deficit isn't so bad is that it's a percentage of GDP comparable to the high end of what it's been in the past. And, this country has been through several issues during Bush's administration. Unlike Clinton's rollop through the flowers.
