The worst President we ever had, George Bush??

reply to post by communicator

I have spoken to many elder/senior/Old people and everyone had one opinion that this is the worst president we ever had. We had Clinton who enjoyed his presidency in pleasure...but he was not that bad...

Well, I don't know WHICH seniors you talked to, but here is one senior that does not consider himself one of the "everyone".
Jimmy Carter, by FAR, was the worst President we have had in my lifetime, and that goes back quite a way. Inflation and Interest rates near 20%, a failed foreign policy. Bush couldn't come CLOSE to matching Carter.

Here is a list of the top 10 reasons why President George W. Bush can be considered the most disastrous president in American history.

This is actually a double list: the first five items concern foreign policy, while the second five address domestic policy.

Common Dreams is a national non-profit citizens' organization working to bring progressive Americans together to promote progressive visions for America's future.

Common Dreams is hardly a source that would be considered unbiased. By its own admission, it is a Progressive (translation-Liberal publication.) It is a non-source, according to the new rules of ATS.

Pooty, I'm with you on that one. Woodrow Wilson was the worst. His activities make George Bush look like a court jester.

Under the Wilson Adminisration, The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 was passed and Wilson selected Paul Warburg (the bills author) as the 1st governor of the Fed.

Next, this fine gentleman allowed the passage of the Revenue Act of 1913 which also provided for the re-instituted of the federal income tax. Both Acts were unconstitutional.

If that wasn't enough, Wilson skillfully manuevered the United States into World War I and after Germany was defeated, he came up with The League of Nations, the first attempt at a new world order, which failed.

The "seeds" for almost all of our country's economic woes were planted during the Wilson Administration and the blooms which flowered from these "seeds" may be the total demise of the United State of America as we know it.

Thank you Woodrow Wilson.

Andrew Jackson is my pick for the worst president.

What abt Rolling stone... is it a authentic source??

"With the Republican revolt in the House of Representatives, President Bush is now confirmed as the weakest Commander-in-Chief in modern history.

He puts Jimmy Carter in the shade. Just as well America faces no serious problems..."

Is there any question??? Are you better off now than you were 8 years ago? How about 20 years ago? 40 years ago? Anyone think the country is better off now than 200 years ago? This boob has not only ruined our country but the entire world. People said he might be the anti-christ and perhaps he is?

Jimmy Carter was the worst president in the twentieth century, and probably the nineteenth century as well. Apparently a nice guy, but as dumb as a post with balls the size of chick-peas.

for instance, I have not gone hungry since Bush took over. Can't say the same for Carter.

That comes next!!!!



George W. Bush is not only the worst president in US history....he is by all senses of the word an enemy of the American people.

Bush leaving office more unpopular than Nixon

"No other president's disapproval rating has gone higher than 70 percent. Bush has managed to do that three times so far this year," says CNN

His family is filth to the world. The karma that his family has brought to the world is just horrific. America has turned upside down in the last 8 years. It has been pretty intense considering it was damage after damage after wars after more wars etc. It never stopped one day in the whole 8 years. The behaviour is horrible and very revealing by his actions. G.W shows he never onced cared about his people!

That is enough to nail the coffin, as been the worst president in history.


His father, and father before that are just as bad as him.

The world will pick up again, once we learn from this of course.


He is the worst leader we had since hitler! At least hitler did some good things when he was in power. I never thought I'd compare Hitler to G.W.B. But there you go!
