Hubris indeed.

IMO, he rates in the bottom group of presidents with Jimmy Carter. Both were extremely incompetent and uninspiring. Both have led us into huge economic problems by not being able to aptly lead our nation. Both could have prevented some of the economic issues of their day by using some good sense and by guiding the nation in proper directions. [/quote]There is a major difference between the two, in that President Carter is a humble man, while Bush defines arrogance.
