Worst. President. Ever. - updated with link

SusanG at Daily Kos cites a Boston Globe article then adds her own comments:

WASHINGTON—The United States and its partners have shortchanged Afghanistan by focusing on short-term goals pursued without a cohesive strategy or a clear understanding of the way the poor, decentralized country works, an independent study concludes.

Here's what's striking about this statement: You can substitute nearly any issue handled by the Bush administration and this paragraph pretty much sums up everything that's gone wrong. Try it:

"The United States has shortchanged _______ by focusing on short-term goals pursued without a cohesive strategy or a clear understanding of how _________ works."

Er, yes. One can name almost any topic whatsoever.

So much for the "legacy tour" trying to fabricate a new record (while the real one goes down the memory hole).
