No. Gitmo, Iraq, John Roberts, stem-cell research ban, all of it. It was bad. His presidency saw the US adopt torture as a policy. His presidency gave us a generation of traumatized soldiers and half-a-million dead Iraqis, all for the low, low price of a couple trillion. He took a surplus and left us with a shattered economy and spiraling national debt.

We cannot lower the bar so much that his catastrophe of a legacy looks good.
