Granted, these are arguably very bad things to consider a legacy. Can we argue these as lies? Can we find any good things to counter these as a legacy?


Just got this in an e-mail. Figured someone around here would like it, either to agree with or to argue over. Don't mind me, just feeling a bit spunky today.

Dear "Spunky,"

Thanks for that...

I recognized the awful truths about bush and his super competant administration...

...but of course you know you'll get those here, who will deny the obvious truths, and even call them lies!
