Poor "Shrub" Bush...it's slipping away... [View all]

From my brother in Texas:

Poor George W. Bush...his entire legacy is being removed piece by piece :

Most incompetent president - gone
Worst war - gone
Most unpopular president - gone
President most likely to favor the wealthy - gone
President with the worst economic policy - gone

He added, when Anne Richards, Democrat, was governor of Texas, the Dallas Cowboys used to win.
