And he doesn't care about how history will remember him. For decades the Canadian dollar was worth $.77 to our $1.00. Now the Canadian dollar is $1.07 to our $1.00. And th Euro dollar, a brand new currency ,is catching up to us as well. He doesn't have a clue about history, except his own family legacy..... read up on the bushes, pre-big George and you will see "history" and legacy at it's "finest". A long article but well worth the trouble to read.. The Euro is worth US$ 1.46 The Australian dollar was worth over a dollarUS until 1984, when it was floated against other currencies. It went straight to around 96 cents, and bottomed out in April 2001 at US 47.75c On 1 Nov 07 it hit a 23 year high at 93.43c. Money is what Bush cares about, and he cares much less for people.
