“its hard to imagine that any part of Bush's legacy can match Truman's triumphs”

Truman the WWI vet sent poorly trained, poorly equipped Army troops to Korea, where they were like lambs led to slaughter, according to the Marines.

Much better to be in Bush's Army.

Yeah, how many KIA in Korea? 54,000? What did we gain by the venture? 40 more years of fearing the international communist conspiracy. No way Bush can live up to that.
