accually, he accually won this time. (with help from his little brother's state interfering in the voting process and ciebold voting mcahines without a paper trail)

1. No. people will remeber the oppositioon movement. (remember the veitnam war? what does everybody concentrate on)
2. Probably. We are Building them at an extreme Rate and naming them after Presidents in order of thier presidency, so this question doesn't really apply. Clinton'll get one first.
3. Not unless the US treasury really needs a new coin- and won't replace sombody. (and replacing sombody on a bill is just about the last thing they would do) Reagan would be first in line, then carter or Clinton, and then Bush, If they even get that far. Perhaps they might issue a commemritive coin with no monitary value or something...

Bush is not going to wind up on the right side of history. Will they remember his Immagration reforms or the Iraq war that will have lasted so long? I'm betting on the latter. And that doesn't exactly speak in Bush's favor...

How history remembers him will depend on who writes it and how things rurn out.

Many economists state the FDRs fiscal policies lengthened the depression, yet history remembers him as a hero of the depression.

Wow... a perfect ten on the talking points scale! Your ignorance about... pretty much every question, is amazing.

Jeffy, you should run for head of the DNC...

By the way, there will never be any naval vessel named after a Clinton, unless it is a garbage scow. The USN loathed both of them.

Interesting that two of you hop or believe that money will be somehow leveredged out of existence in the next 100 years, as per the context of the timeline of this post.
I don't see how.

Also we may live to see Reagan coins in regular circulation in my opinion.
Curious that the importance of coinage seems too great in our time to envision it being so.

P.S. Look up "sanctimonius", "apocalyptic", and "zealot" for me and tell me how any of them apply to PRESIDENT Bush.

- sanc·ti·mo·nious·ness noun


Main Entry: apoc·a·lyp·tic
Pronunciation: &-"pä-k&-'lip-tik
Variant(s): also apoc·a·lyp·ti·cal /-ti-k&l/
Function: adjective
1 : of, relating to, or resembling an apocalypse
2 : forecasting the ultimate destiny of the world : PROPHETIC
3 : foreboding imminent disaster or final doom : TERRIBLE
4 : wildly unrestrained : GRANDIOSE
5 : ultimately decisive : CLIMACTIC
- apoc·a·lyp·ti·cal·ly /-ti-k(&-)lE/ adverb

4 a : marked by sham or hypocrisy b : marked by self-conscious virtue : VIRTUOUS
5 : deserving commendation : WORTHY <a pious effort>
- pi·ous·ly adverb
- pi·ous·ness noun


:rotfl:

Sorry, I couldn't resist. You have to admit. Some of these apply. I guess it all depends on how you choose to interpret the definitions. Based on the president's last four years, those definitions most certainly could apply. But that's just my liberal lefty biased opinion. :D

I dislike President Bush more now than I have at any time during his presidency. May the next four years pass quickly.

If you dwell on it, it will be a long painful four years. Focus on something else. ;)

I like cash. I want to keep it around. It is real. It is solid. When cash comes out and changes hands, the deal is done. Americans love cash as well. Money talks, Bullsh*t walks (but they can't touch my three-lock box).

1. I think so - but I think in a way that will shock even Republicans looking back
2. Yes, I believe so, but it will probably be an Iraqi one. ;)
3. No, because I don't think we will use money in the traditional sense very much longer.

Wichitah didn't think that money would be around much longer. I do. Sorry, I am cipot ffo.
