Bolton: ‘In 100 years people aren’t going to remember Guantánamo or Abu Ghraib.’
Think Progress
Tuesday, Dec 30, 2008
With President Bush’s time in office rapidly coming to an end, his loyal supporters are working overtime to spin his legacy positively. In an interview with the Telegraph, Bush’s former UN ambassador, John Bolton, claims that “in 100 years,” people won’t remember two of the biggest stains on Bush’s record, Guantánamo Bay and Abu Ghraib:
“In the immediate aftermath of 9/11, he was strong and decisive and that was critical for both the country and for the Western world,” believes John Bolton. “In 100 years people aren’t going to remember Guantánamo or Abu Ghraib, they’re going to remember 9/11 and Bush’s reaction to it.”
Bolton’s claim that history will forget Bush’s human rights abuses is similar to State Department spokesman Sean McCormack’s claim that in 50 years no one will remember the shoe-hurling Iraqi journalist.

He’s right.

“Winston Churchill said:”History will be kind to us, because I am planning to write it.”
If we continue to let the elite write and teach history, we will learn nothing.

No credibility. Another highly paid criminal liar. He makes himself the fool by the foolishness of his words.

Bolton needs to hang right beside Fat Dick and the Village Idiot.

he is right, Bush will be remembered as a man who not only killed millions abroad, but was sick enough to kill his own countrymen in deciet. people wont probably remember abu graib or guantanamo because they will be to busy drawing comparisions between Bush and Hiltler

In one hundred years GWB and Bolton will both be no more than what they already are: degenerate traitors.
