Why is this post sugar coated with "recent history"?

Ok, how does he rate against all presidents

They don't really have polls for guys like:

King John
King Henry VI
King Richard III
Queen Mary
King Charles I
King James II
King George III
John Adams (the first disliked President)
Millard Fillmore
Franklin Pierce
James Buchanan (THE WORST PRESIDENT EVER!)
Andrew Johnson
U. S. Grant
Warren G. Harding
Herbert Hoover
Lyndon Johnson
Richard Nixon
Jimmy Carter
George W. Bush (SECOND WORST PRESIDENT EVER!)

Okay, so they do have polling for the last few, but still. We have a long history going back to Ethelred the Unready of horrible leaders. These are the ones that stand out.

First thing that came to mind:

ARTHUR: I am your king!
WOMAN: Well, I didn't vote for you.
ARTHUR: You don't vote for kings.

This is exactly what happens when a President gets elected based on personality, the media's love of the story surrounding him (son of a former President) and without giving any consideration to experience, qualifications or his questionable past. So far this primary season, it's not clear we've learned our lesson.

It doesn't take a Weatherman to know which way the wind is blowing.

Nor does it take a pair of binoculars to spot a war criminal. Unprovoked wars of aggression are a crime against humanity period. We can let him ride on habeus corpus, wiretapping, and torture / Geneva conventions.

Of course, his sense of humor is as twisted as some of our trolls.

It's just that his family and close friends are making Billion$ while

our sick little trolls are only venting their hate for humanist values.

At least when Richard Milhouse Nixon was in office and broke the law, wiretapped, infringed on the Constitution Congressmen on BOTH sides were outraged, stood up, and were determined to uphold the law.

Now, not so much. 28% of America doesn't think he's committed any crims.

There is nothing I can say to add to what you already feel about this President.

Who has not looked up W's biography on the internet?

You should. We all should have before we voted for him.

Many would not believe what has been written about him and his whole family, it is so bad.

Many didn't know, many others refused to believe and on top of all that we let him get away with stealing the election twice. I'm ashamed of myself and and I'm ashamed of my fellow Americans!

No, no, he's only 42nd. Buchanan still beats him, barely. Of course history might judge differently. Even Nixon begins to look better from a distance when there is no tear-gas fumes.

AND the most incompetent. AND the most arrogant. We need to run this dude through the impeachment process to make him accountable. He lied to us to get us into his war. He must answer for that.

Even an evil, incompetent president with a congressional majority and a stacked supreme court can show some power. Now we must show some power and impeach him for high crimes and misdemeanors. He must be held accountable.

The #1 reason why BushCo's numbers are not seriously lower is because

the MSM is covering for these fucking war criminals. we have no free press.

If W had Nixon's press corps, we'd have impeached the lot of them by now.

This is one of the changes the MIC & GHWB orchestrated from the lessons

learned following Vietnam, to make their perpetual war far more perpetual!!

Bush has never done his job as President, his approval rating should be zero. Now ask how
Cheney the white devil, has done running the country.

Do you suppose it's possible the press corps really are afraid of what would really turn up if they piled on to W and Cheney the way they did to LBJ, Nixon, Carter and Bush I? You think maybe they fear that the whole society could come unglued, and we need somehow to keep this crap together until next Fall? Nothing else makes enough sense to me.
