THE ARTICLE IS a proof to make an account of this administration. From the point of view of the author, ex-president Bush jr. will be described as the worst president in the entire history of the United States of America. He carries the personal responsibility for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the huge civil victims in these countries. Under the administration of Bush all the principles of international law were broken in order to promote American hegemony everywhere in the World. Current financial crisis is only one of the consequences and evidence that the USA in the times of Bush presidency has lost his credibility. The using of tortures and maintaining such camps like Guantanamo or Abu Ghraib discredited the founding myth of the USA about freedom and democracy. The Author is visible astonished that political class in Poland agreed on installation of the so called military shield on the territory of Poland. Its proves how irresponsible and dangerous decisions can be made by Polish government. The new hope for America and the World is a new American president Barack Obama. Many people all over the world would like to believe in his promised change though the author remains skeptical to such expectations.
