Bush was the worst president we ever had. period.
A little thin skin, I see. Where were you when attacks were being made against Bush?
The double standard is cliche by now. They dont even see it.
What you call the double standard I call free speech.
Right and that is what Captain America was doing exercising his freedom of speech.
That's perfectly fine with me.:mrgreen:
Still waiting for the number of Presidents that you have actually been old enough to vote for. You claimed Bush was the worst President ever but that doesn't mean a lot of you weren't around during other Administrations.
I am old enough to have voted for 11 Presidents, Reagan was the best, Carter the worst.
I am 67. Voted for a few of them, even carter who is a great humanitarian and Christrian.
Yes, but a very poor leader and President. Too naive and a poor manager
History will be the judge, I believe, if the world lasts that much longer.
It has been thirty years and history is already judging him. You confuse what he is doing as a humanitarian and a Christian to what he did as a President. Historians rank Carter near the bottom and that is where he belongs. the results speak for themselves.
He was a navy veteran, an expert in nuclear physics, and we never had a war under him.
While he was president, the arab oil embargo occured. No president could have withstood such an occurrence. Some people have a way of blaming the president for everything that happens.
BTW, how about the terrorist bombing of the marines in lebonon, during reagan's admin. He cut tail and ran.
He should have remained in the navy and developed better leadership skills. His economic policy was a disaster and let to 20+ per cent interest rates and high inflation. His foreign policy led to the take over of the U.S. Embassy in Iran and his failed rescue effort again showed poor leadership and poor execution. His results rank at near the bottom in all categories as does his overall ranking.
Not sure what this has to do with Obama and this thread but I can tell you, Obama is no Ronald Reagan. Reagan inspired a nation and empowered the people. Obama apologizes for the greatness of this country and inspires greater increases in the size of the Federal govt. He seems to have disdain for the economic engine that drives this economy, small business and believes it is the government's role to provide the growth out of this recession. What do you expect from an empty suit community organizer that was completely unqualified to be President.
He was and is a good human being but now a bitter old man. No former President in U.S. History has been as critical of other President's as Carter. He has done more harm in foreign relations than any other President in recent history.
Reagan made a mistake in Lebanon but pulled out because of the bigger picture. Having our troops as a target without the backup and the national commitment would have led to a bigger disaster.
You can minimize what Reagan did but his economic results and distruction of the Soviet Union which led to the end of the Cold War and a peace dividend cannot be ignored or minimized
There is no such thing as the perfect President. They all make mistakes. Reagan however is revered by the majority in this country, ranked high in Presidential rankings because of his economic results, and inspired a nation after the Carter Malaise.
Rush Limbaugh could not have said it better.:spin::rofl
Simple, now I can protect myself from insurrectionist like the tea baggers. I can also protect myself in the ghetto and my home from drug dealers.
When you ridicule our president you are ridiculing your country, Cap E Tan.:usflag2:

I turned voting age in '75. From my personal observations as well as the scars on my portfolio, my opinion is somewhat mixed. I'd have to say I loved Ronnie the best. But life was much better in my house under Clinton. Carter years were pretty lean. But Jimmy was a good guy. Ineffective, but a nice person. After Nixon, and the wave of opinion was pretty much total distrust of the presidency, Jimmy did bring some dignity back to the oval office. But that's about it. If it had not been for Bush/Cheney, I would have to agree that Carter was the worst. But, by comparison to Bush, IMHO, Carter loses the title of Worst President in My Lifetime award.
Bush is like Brett Favre. He has set the bar so high. Just like I doubt that the Bush/Cheney ****-up's will be topped by any presidency we get for years to come, I doubt any quarterback will break Brett Favre's many records anytime soon.
Obama is really coming on strong against the right wing nuts who now run the republican borg party with rush limbaugh as the borg queen.
The problems with liberals is that they have been too nice. They have higher standards and morals than the rabid right wing nuts.
But, since the magnificent smack down of them, when he met them, courageously ,
, face to face, and made them look like the ignorant fools that they are, the political paradigm has done a 180.
The truth will always defeat hate in the long run. Justice will be served. Go Obama.
"We shall overcome" "I have a dream" "You can't pick very much cotton if those cotton balls are rotten"
So apparently Obama lies don't matter? Thanks for proving exactly who you are
Well it's time to move on to a more up to date on the magnificent one, obama.
