George Bush Legacy

I have, over the past several years, been relatively supportive of President Bush.  I know that is an unpopular stance to take, considering at the time of this post his approval ratings are hovering around 25-30%.  There are several reasons why I have generally supported him and his adminstration, but the one that stands out more than any is his unwavering stance on security.  Many will argue the tactics taken by his administration, and I believe there is room for discussion/debate on that subject, but the fact that we haven’t seen any attacks on U.S. soil since 9/11, especially considering our wars in the Middle East, is nothing short of a miracle.  Many Presidents have been in power in a time where there were no attacks on the U.S., (Franklin Roosevelt and George Bush are the only ones that have in modern politics) so why does 7 years of NO attacks deserve consideration?  The answer to that is simple; this is a different time.  Islamic extremism is at an all time high, you couple that with the fact that traveling internationally is much cheaper and easier than in years prior, that, along with the ability to obtain material to create severe damage…add that all up and you have a recipe to create major havoc.  I will, as my liberal counterparts like to do, ”blame” that on George W. Bush (I mean if you’re going to blame everything else on him, you HAVE TO heap the “blame” of no terrorist attacks on the US onto his shoulders…).  With that in mind, I’m curious what people think George Bush’s legacy will be in say….20 years?!?!?  I will, after a time, give a little more insight of what my opinion is, but for now, let me know your thoughts……
