Bush-supported programs to encourage poor people to own their own homes has caused the highest level of minority home ownership in history.

Ummmm.... Does he really want to claim this in light of the mortgage crisis?

It's mostly about foreign policy stuff and the WOT. Only one line to point out the biggest of Bush's failures - the deficit spending and bloating of govt.

Unfortunately, Bush’s major failure was his inability to curb wasteful government spending and earmarks passed by Republicans and Democrats alike, which, with the wars on terror and liberation in Afghanistan and Iraq, caused massive budget deficits.

He could have used the veto. Let's hope when Palin becomes president she uses it like she did in Alaska.

How is it Bush's fault that thousands of people bought adjustible rate loans on houses that no way in hell they could afford? They bet against teh economy and they lost their asses.
