George Bush may not be everyones favorite leader right now, but history will polish the wartime presidents image, writes Charles Krauthammer in the Washington Post. No one knew war was imminent when Bush entered officebut 9/11 changed that. Yet Bush has kept us safe and paved the way for his successor to do the same. Early reviews are predictably negative. Bob Woodward calls Bush "aloof and detached," but "a more favorably inclined biographer might have called it equanimity." As for the Iraq war, history has not yet rendered its verdict, but its likely to grow more favorable if, as is likely, the move turned an enemy into an ally in the war on terror. As the history books are written, Bush may well follow in Harry Trumans footsteps: Both expanded the presidents powers and fought unpopular wars. Truman left office disparaged, but history has revised that verdict, Krauthammer writes.
