Of course not. I have added some links that explain where the Truthducker movement is wrong, enjoy them. The idea that Bush would destroy his name in history is ludicrous, especially after Bin Ladin and Al Qaeda both claimed the credit (debit?) for this mass murder. A lot of the Truthduckers are in fact anti-Semites who want the blame to go to Israel, the rest are just knee-jerk hatebushers who assume everything that goes wrong in the Universe is somehow his fault. He wasn't much of a President but deep down everyone knows, whether they will admit it or not, that he didn't really kill 3,000 people so he could go to war with Afghanistan for no other particular reason.
