Let's be fair, those are the things that the two presidents will be remembered for by liberals
.
By conservatives, GWB will be remembered for getting the country back up after the 9/11 attacks, and fighting terrorists in the MidEast (the bad Iraq War will be minimized). Obama will be remembered for being the first black President, but ACA will be considered by conservatives an example of bad big government and all of the growing pains will be highlighted.
