How historians judge Bush: He's in the Top 10 of America’s worst presidents

By GottaLaff

Georgie Bush told us all that we should wait to see how historians will judge him. Why? Because they would look back on him kindly, that's why. Boy howdy, was Bushie Boy extra crispy wrong!

Today, C-SPAN released its second Historians Survey of Presidential Leadership, in which “65 presidential historians ranked the 42 former occupants of the White House on ten attributes of leadership.” Coming in first was Abraham Lincoln, followed by George Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt, and Harry Truman. Finishing last was James Buchanan. George W. Bush came in 36th, just beating out Millard Fillmore, who ranked 37th:

Color me pessimistic, but I'm thinkin' things won't look any better to historians in 10, 20, or 50 years.

Oh, and Joe Lieberman was wrong, too. Shocking, huh?
