Let's throw in some FACTS just to make it interesting: Kennedy: Very suspect win....appointed his brother as Atty Gen...FBI kept tabs on political opponents....OK assassination of Pres of Vietnam....started Vietnam war... Johnson: Most dishonest Pres of 20th Century....very corrupt..."latebox Lyndon"....responsible for bulk of war dead in Vietnam... Nixon: First modern Pres to understand coming globalization...tragic figure...paranoia.... Carter: Absolutely worst Pres of last 100 years....very weak man...very intelligent to the point of being stupid.... Reagan: Solid conservative....too trusting with aides...basic understanding of humanity....won Cold War... Bush 1: Probably best resume of any Pres...served in all three branches of Gov....flew fighters off of aircraft carriers in WWII...shot down twice....not exactly "whimp"....If Perot doesn't run, Bush is re-elected... Clinton: History will treat him as a lightweight....remembered for Lewinksy...disbarred....great potential, but huge moral weakness...no legislation passed...a basic empty suit...never got more than 50% of vote in either election.... Bush 2: History will treat him well....liberals hate him but they have no ideas of what to do about anything.... Liberalism is dying....just like it's cousins...Nazism, Socialism, Communism....only the Democratic Party of the US is the only people that don't know this.... Hillary is as close to a Nazi we have ever had running for Pres....she, as many "intelligentsia" speak from on high as to what is best for us, "the unwashed".... Democratic party is made of three groups: aforementioned intelligentsia, Hebrews and Blacks....not being racist or anti-semetism, just pointing out facts....it is not racist to point out that the NBA is comprised mostly of very tall African American Males... I find it amusing, tragically so, that Friedman, Klugman, Rich and most of the Jewish Senators beat up on Bush, a Christian pres for his dealings with the Islamic world.... The Hebrews have a 2000 year track record of abject failure in dealing with Muslims....LOL I welcome intelligent discussion..... SteveD
Please be so kind as to point out an incorrect FACT..... I requested "intelligent" discussion.....LOL... SteveD
For a start, many whorehouses have a high patronage of virgins. Of course, their mostly clients...maybe thats OT.
I'll give Bush and LBJ a tie for the worst in my life time. Arrogant, hard headed would describe them both. That, and both much more concerned about their "legacy" than doing what is right for the country. Two tough talking rednecks from Texas that didn't have the balls, or the brains to know when to fight and when to stand aside. How's that for irony?
Capt. I agree with you that Bush and LBJ stink on dry ice, but wouldn't you include Carter in that same toilet?
If LBJ and Bush are the turds floating in the bowl, Carter would be the shit stain on the seat. He gets an honorable mention for all time fuck ups, but he's not quite in the same category as Bush/LBJ. Carter gets first prize for most harm done post presidency. That, he wins hands down.
My guess is that it will take longer for the landscape to recover from the Bush fallout than from that of any president that preceded him. Virtually every decision he made had a basis in arrogance. Virtually every decision he made was the wrong one for the country. And he has made enough of them.
