so i guess that means Supporting him is like supporting the dolphins.

Do you think you would have supported Jimmy Carter during his presidency. No offense, but that guy is worst then bush.  I could name 9 others who are worst, Bush certainly isn't the greatest but he sure as hell isn't the worst.

 

What made Carter worse than Bush and what 9 others are worse? 

There is no bigger shame to the office of the President than this guy.  I don't care who has gotten blow jobs or spied on others.  Bush has been a disaster.  Period.

Just to name a few

James Buchanan (worst president ever), Warren G harding,  Richard Nixon, Jimmy Carter, Rutherford D Hayes, Franklin Pierce, William H. Harrison, James Garfield, Herbert Hoover, and Andrew Johnson

But hey, if you don't want to listen to a person that is big on history, be my guest. History is not on your side

Yeah you thought that t i would put only democrats on this list, right? Well . Both parties have had their fair share of bad presidents  Even the whig party have had worst.

I'm not debating whether or not he's been a disaster, he hasn't been successful, but the worst?, not even close.

Actually do some research on Carter, you will be surprised he wasn't as great as you think. There is a reason why Democrats are distancing themselves from him. Take the hint,

This is why i don't bother going into political discussions since there are people that are so ignorant, that they think whatever they say is right and what everyone else said is wrong.  It's so pointless.

I personally think franklin pierce was and continues to be the worst president in the history of the us. bush has a lot of catching up to do to be worse than the guy, who more than any single person brought about the civil war.

The guy didn't even win his parties nomination when he was running for re-election.

something i found weird  when i was looking through the presidents bio, some didn't even want to be president, Warren G Harding, basically said he should never have been here (here meaning presidency), and wasn't fit to be president.

Carter was more of a do-nothing president (ineffective), from what I know, rather than a downright damaging one.  He is considered by historians to be near the bottom quarter, as of the latest polls.

Buchanan is near the bottom, but the conservatives and liberals agree that Harding was the worst thus far.

I do think that W. Bush will be judged poorly, moreso in hindsight, and will drop to the bottom.  He is already ranked as the worst president since WW2 (in a landslide).  Nixon was 2nd worst, with only half as many votes.

Whatever, kid.  You would have impressed me slightly had you told me WHY instead of googling "worST presidents ever" and typing some names.

I asked you WHAT made Carter worSE?  (notice the ignorant spelling)

Edit to add: GRANT!...but what do I know of history... Roll Eyes

And funny how you claim that I think Carter is great, something I NEVER SAID.  But in terms of Carter and Bush?  Yeah...no question there buddy.

too bad i didn't google worst president ever, your comments lost all creditability right from the start. Those "some names", if you actually research it, are worse than bush.

What good would me telling you why he is worse then bush. You won't listen. Trying to explain something to you is like talking to a deaf person. If you know how to do it. Go to Google, Put in Jimmy Carter's failures and you should find a good number of info. There is no point of me telling you these things if your not going to listen, so do your research yourself, and you will be smarter because of it.

But hey, what do i know about history anyways.  Roll Eyes

And again, this is why i never get into a political argument, it goes round and round and accomplishes absolutely nothing. Your not going to change my mind, i am not going to change your mind. So what the hell is the point of this.

You mentioned it first.  So I asked why?  You couldn't.  You didn't.  End of story.  All you managed to convey:  I don't get into political threads because the little I know gets exposed and scrutinized.

Stay in school.

Anyways, I initially asked out of curiousity.  I really wanted to know what YOU thought made Carter worSE than Bush.  Not what google says.  I know some of what Carter did (and didn't do) but I sure as hell do know what this guy has done.  It is not my fault you fail to defend your argument.  So next time you can save the "this is why" bs and just stay out of it all together.

Carter was most certainly worse than Bush.

I'm not going to bother listing all the reason either, because I enjoy my sunday afternoons off work. Just take a look at his second-term election results.

And the fact that Bush is rated as the 'worst' president since WW2, despite the fact that one of them resigned in the face of impeachment, is indicative of the level of knowledge most of those polled have about US History.

I am not a Republican or a Democrat. I vote for who I believe is the better man for the Job. Most of the time its the lesser of two Evils.

I listened to Al Gore for 8 years , His wife in the 80's made me sick when she tried to censor my Twisted Sister albums!! I didn't think he was the man for the Job.......I still don't........but he would have been way better then Bush.

Then Came 2004 and I was already to dump Bush because he started something he shouldn't have. But Look at what they gave us........John Kerry.  Tongue Huh

Now I'm primed and ready to pull that handle on the Democrats side. This country is a mess. The boarders are been trampled daily, Medical and Insurance co$ts are killing American Business, Gas Prices are INSANE..........and what do they give us? Hillary and Obama!?  They are making it VERY hard to vote their way. Very hard.  Indifferent

But back to the thread Topic.........I know of at least 200 Floridians that would love to go back in time to 2000 and give Al Gore that election........everyone of them lost a love one in IRAQ.  Indifferent

Yeah, nevermind the Pentagon Papers, his corrupt cabinet members, his increasing of military spending at the expense of education and healthcare, his own personal tax fraud, and the oil crisis that resulted in part from our involvement in the Israeli war with Syria.

Oh, and his approval rating set a record low at 23% at the end of his term. Bush is currently at 28%. Nixon's highest-ever approval rating, 67%, doesn't come close to Bush's highest, 92%.

Or, as in The People's Almanac: "Other things being equal, we haven't had a bad President before now. Mr. Nixon is the 1st dangerous and wicked President."

Exactly what amazing stuff did he do? He was not personally responsible for the economy, Greenspan had more to do with that the Billy did.
Lets not forget the spineless Demo's who kept voting for the war, the Patriot Act, spending, etc.
Personally I feel the worst presidential election was 1876. The Dem's offered the GOP the White House in exchange for ending Reconstruction, and the GOP readily accepted. It doe not get too much worse than that.

Exactly. Bill was a louse as well. Terrorism was rampant. On his watch They almost sunk a US Warship with a rubber inflated raft  and ALL of the planning took place for 9/11. Look at how he handled Bosnia.  Yeah we went in, then we left just as quick and left it much worse.

Bush is the other extreme. But at least he's Trying to accomplish something no matter how asinine his efforts are.  Whats worse? No effort or extreme effort in the wrong direction? Looking back in hindsight I guess No effort would have been less damaging. But who is to know at the time?

Hillary or Obama? Talk about a lack of options. That's like picking who you would rather have the Dolphins beat..........The Jets or The Pats? They BOTH SUCK HARD AND LONG.   Sad
