Dinner with Portillo - The Legacy of President George W Bush

In a programme first broadcast in 2006, Michael Portillo is joined by both Americans and Britons to discuss the legacy of George W Bush as his presidency neared its end. After 9/11, when the Bush declared a War on Terror, the champion of neo-conservatives and the religious right enjoyed all-time high approval ratings. But five years later, with two and a half thousand American soldiers killed in Iraq and criticism at home of his response to Katrina, the polls showed he had lost huge support.
