Bush's Legacy?

What in the world will it be? I mean, Nixon and Carter managed to salvage their names with foreign policy and building houses. They were perceived by the public as, overall, having been bad presidents but with redeeming values.

So what about Bush, Jr.?

Let's face it, he wasn't an intelligent president. Like Reagan, there is widespread suspicion he was a prop. Unlike Reagan, he got America involved in some horrifically expensive wars: Reagan just got America involved in some horrifically expensive military buildups and embarrassing deals with drug dealers and terrorists.

I have a feeling Bush, Jr. will have a legacy as perhaps the ex-president most targeted by terrorist groups. But I don't see him doing anything useful with the rest of his life. He hasn't been useful up until now, so why change so late in the game?
