Very interesting, Alcyone. Rather unsurprisingly, I find myself disagreeing with some points the article makes, but I have to agree with several others. One thing is certain. Two years ago, when anyone mentioned the name 'Bush' in many parts of Europe, you could hear the contempt dripping from the speaker's tongue. Now, hardly anyone mentions Bush's name anymore. The anger that used to be there at the United States has also vanished. People have moved on to other things and other worries.
Perhaps the National Journal is right and the footprint that Bush leaves in history will really be a small one.
