Farewell George W. Bush
Tomorrow is the big day. The day we hand over the “Ring of Power” to our best hope at putting our country back together. I wonder what emotions he will be experiencing when President Obama walks into the Oval Office that first day. I wouldn’t be surpised if one of those emotions was fear. Fear of the monumental list of fires that he will be charged with dousing. He may even recall the words of John F. Kennedy:
“When we got into office, the thing that surprised me most was to find that things were just as bad as we’d been saying they were.”
This Reuters article sums it up quite well when they say:
Not since Herbert Hoover left Franklin Roosevelt the Great Depression has a U.S. president left his successor a litany of problems seemingly as daunting as George W. Bush will bequeath to Barack Obama when he takes office on January 20.
