El BJ was Clinton as well
Jimmy Carter was a "nucular engineer" don't you know?
Anybody who doesn't mention Carter simply has not lived during his administration.
And I was a freaking liberal when Carter had the helm!
Gawd, I recall 17% interest rates for a house, killer rabbits and worst of all, long gas lines.
Then there was the general malaise and how about the Christmas lights? Y'all remember that? Here we all were across the fruited plains, not putting up Christmas lights to conserve energy and there was ole Jimmah lighting up the fire at Camp David to warm up an area he made cold by RUNNING THE AIR CONDITIONER TO CHILL!!!
Yeah man, we had no colorful seasonal lights and there was Jimmah running the air conditioner so he could light up the fire in the middle of summer.
Damn, I got stories on Carter. If Americans today don't think a President can affect their own personal lives, man I could tell stories about how Carter damn near ruined MINE.
Turned me from a flaming liberal almost overnight.
And dadgum, I ain't even got to the hostages in Iran yet.
Man..and now the mean writes blatant lies about it all...I could spit.
That's it? That's all the writer wants to mention about the traitor that sold us out to China? It's all about sex?
Before the jury comes back in on President Bush ... it had better fill a few warehouses with the documented and verifiable treason of x42.
Hell, if they burned it now that would be a good thing. You can take all of SE and NE and toss them in the trash.
Apparently the author has forgotten Mr. Peanut. He needs a work-up for Alzheimer's, pronto.
Is George Bush the worst President in American history?
No. He was dealt one of the ugliest hands in presedential history, though ... the attacks on 9/11, the ensuing war on terror (a very expensive one), an economy making the adjustment to wartime and the price of oil, etc. How he has managed to keep his sanity is beyond me.

Don't forget how the Democrats blocked nearly every confirmation of every appointment that Bush tried to make when he got the Presidency. He spent as much time fighting them then as he does the terrorists now.
How odd.
I truly think Clinton would have won the prize if not for a Republican congress keeping a more-or-less tight rein on him. As it is, though, Carter is head and shoulders above (below?) the pack.
I would not be a bit surprised if we were to learn in many decades that Carter was a mole of a foreign power or an elite multinational cabal that wanted America to be weak.
And Carter was a nuclear expert, and pronounced it "nucular." It seems to me that that should make it an acceptable pronunciation.
"No. He was dealt one of the ugliest hands in presedential history, though ... the attacks on 9/11, the ensuing war on terror (a very expensive one), an economy making the adjustment to wartime and the price of oil, etc. How he has managed to keep his sanity is beyond me."
AMEN!
But, FDR, not even mentioned here, used the Depression for political purposes and established policies that both prolonged and deepened the Depression. He also took several giant steps forward in establishing dependency on the government for almost everything.
The worse year for the depression was 1937, after four years of FDR's Presidency. My vote for worse Presidency ever is FDR 1933 to 1941.
Agreed! Carter again wins "Worst President Ever" by failing to take out Iran in 1979...
Of course the Nation left off the obvious candidates, Jimmy Carter and Woodrow Wilson.
Carter: Stagflation and the 'misery index', gas lines, Iranian hostage crisis
Woodrow Wilson: He was a not so closeted racist, Creation of the League of Nations, the Treaty of Versailles, and an appeasement type culture which ultimately led to WW2 and the Cold War. Wilson created the federal income tax.

He can see this but he can't see that Clinton ended the remotest possibility that we could be spared a war with OBL, et al.
No. No one is worse than Carter. Carter has it sewn up.
Jimmy Carter...we havent yet felt the full brunt of his incometence...also LBJ, if he had done in 1965, what Nixon did in 1972 with Linebacker, the Vietnam war might have ended in 1965-66.
Jimmy Carter gave us the MUSLIM problem we have today and Chavez would NOT be Dictator of Venezuela had Carter not put his stamp of approval on his "election".
He certainly was handed a pile of crap, not along by Carter and Klintoon, but his own father and yes, even St. Ronnie the Perfect, who all punted on Islamofacism.
I see Jon Carry saying we should "engage" the crazy mullahs in Iran, and I say, no matter how low Bush goes in the public eye, at least that clown isn't President.
