Who was the worst president of the past fifty years?

If you were rich when he got in, he was great for you, no doubt. Don't know what your financial status is but, I can guesstimate. His institution of the Patriot Act, along with the false flag known as 9/11, will forever sustain his place in history, as the worst ever.

 

You have Obama to blame for the patriot act he signed to extend the act in 2011. You can't blame Bush for 911 if you do you are not very informed on the subject.

 

Bush and PNAC had everything to do with 9/11. Apparently, YOU aren't very informed on the subject. Obama is just as bad as Bush though, in that respect, extending the Nazi style rule.

 

Bush didn't have anything to do with 911.

 

2 of Obama's years growth beats 4 of Bush's. Despite inheriting the worst recession in 80 years.

But sure. Under Bush the economy was juiced by the unregulated wild orgy of greed that drove a devastating housing bubble. Not particularly and impressive record I'd be proud of. And even with that, and even with his tax cuts that cost the Govt trillions in revenues, it still sucked.

 

i'll let you have that, but you have to admit that wasn't as bad as bombing our allies and not_enemies....Pakistan and Libya.

 

Wow, you are out there. How many straight years of high unemployment did Bush preside over? How about Obama? If you are talking about making the rich richer, Obama might have the upper hand, but I thought your side frowned on that...

 

Bush inherited 4.2% unemployment and left with 7.8% unemployment that was skyrocketing upwards. That's sure something to brag about.

The Republican Tea Party has made sure the riches of 1% are protected and expanded as much as possible.

 

Bad news for Obama haters - Healthcare plan enrollment surges in some states after rocky rollout
Healthcare insurance enrollment increases in some states that run their own exchanges, boosting hopes of Obamacare backers.

Enrollments up.

Corporate profits up to their highest level since 1900!




No other president in history accomplished all that!!

 

He abused it quite a lot actually. Before the War on Terror, he was one of the most paranoid presidents we've had. He authorized a lot more spying than any of the previous presidents -- even among his own staff.

The irony of his paranoia is that the various recordings he had were later used as evidence against him in many cases.

 

Complete, 100%, unadulterated POPPYCOCK.

 

You are 100% wrong....

 

No, YOU sir, are the one who has his wires crossed. Bush is a traitor, a killer, a liar, and evil.

 

I guess we agree to disagree, I am not a sir. Bush loves the US something you can't say about Obama, Do you hate Bush because he is a republican.

 

I hate Bush because he's a Liar, a criminal, and a killer, and because he's Republican.

 

Why do you like Obama? He is a liar criminal. and a killer of us citizens.

 

I think it was Clinton by a mile. The US hemorrhaged jobs, lost almost entire industries, due to his policies; he is the one who removed the safeguards that kept the Great Recession from ever even having been possible. He failed to go after OBL, setting us up for 9/11; his entire foreign policy was to buy people off; he caused a whole generation of hot pants to rationalize sexual promiscuity as not sex; and he has consistently refused to follow the tradition of not trying to undermine his successors after leaving office.

 

Interesting. How many foreign lives equate to one US life? Bush was directly responsible for the deaths of about 7,000 US soldiers and somewhere between 150,000 to perhaps a million or more innocent (foreign) civilian deaths. There are at least 8 cases of homicide (and perhaps over 40) because of the enhanced interrogation techniques (torture) authorized by President Bush.

I don't like Obama but Bush was a horrendous president when it came to murder, the deaths of innocent people, the sacrificing of American soldiers for political purposes unrelated to defending the United States, and misrepresenting the truth (lying) to the American People.

 

Since there were fourty-three White presidents before there was one non-White president, the "angry White guys" that Republican Senator Lindsey Graham refers to might overwhelmingly name the one non-White president as being worse than the 43 White presidents.

However, they would assure you that, despite the apparent correlation with race, it is merely a one-in-forty-four coincidence.

Just nod and smile.

 

Ok, so what did Bush have to do with 9/11 again? What did he lie about? How is he a criminal? How is he a killer?

 

Did Bush strap on suicide vests, run into populated areas and blow up innocent civilians? Did he fly three planes into buildings containing innocent civilians? Interesting perspective you have.

Would you have us sit on our laurels, when we're attacked on our homeland? Would you prefer we fight a war on our own soil or foreign soil? How many more American deaths would it have taken for you to go to war with nations that rear terrorists that have a hard on for killing Americans?

 

It is a coincidence that the one black President has been an absolute travesty - it's not coincidental that he's a horrible Democratic President, however. Herman Cain would have been a much better choice... Funny how the Liberals attacked him to death, just as they do Thomas Sowell and Clarence Thomas.

 

So the angry White guys insist.

The reality, that there have been forty-three White presidents, and only one non-White president, and that AWGs insist that all forty-three White presidents were better than the one non-White president speaks for itself, no matter how many imaginary presidents they might contrive to throw into the mix to alter the factual reality.

There were Presidents who were about as bad. You continue to ignore their mentioning, though. FDR, Wilson, LBJ, Carter... that's about it. I would argue that Obama is certainly worse than Carter, though.

The true reality is that liberals, such as yourself, are blinded by color. You can't see past Obama's black skin to see that he's actually that horrible a President.

 

Those ubiquitous "Liberals!" get you in such a tizzy!

You may as well insist that the Democratic Party with its far racial greater diversity than the GOP is "blinded by color."

America is diverse; the GOP is over 90% White,, and that speaks louder than vacuous accusations, and why a Republican senator recognizes the Party's plight:
