"Lazy. He didn"t come to my class prepared," Tsurumi told Cable News Network. "He did very badly.
Somehow I found him totally devoid of compassion, social responsibility, and good study discipline.
What I remember most about him was all the kind of flippant statements that he made inside of classroom as well as outside."
Tsurumi has continued to be a persistent and vocal critic of the President"s politics and policies.
He also criticized Bush"s preparedness for class and political views, telling Cable News Network that teachers remember their best and worst students and that "Bush was in the latter group".
