I'd move LBJ up a notch. But you are right.

Seven out eight. Neither W nor the Democrats want border security.
Nope, GWB cannot outdo Carter ... still the hands-down winner of the worst President ever honor.

You nailed it!
Bush lost me with the attempt to sell out the country to a third-world nation. Good luck on revising that.
Luckily America is not a democracy;
polls don't matter except to socialists.
Sorry, Mr. Hanson - you're wrong about this one.
His outrageous spending policies will prohibit any sort of fond reminising. For instance, the old folks who benefited from his “compassion” in the form of free pills will be long dead but the young, who will have to PAY for said freebies, will be around and won’t be as forgiving.
The winner of the title, “Worst President of My Lifetime” goes to Jimmah Carter by a unanimous vote of the RightWingConspirator family.
My view on why an effective solution for illegal imigration is so difficult to implement:
1) The Democrats don’t want Bush to get credit for ANYTHING!
2) The elements of the solution MUST NOT be racist.
3) There are truly difficult components;
- Deportation is not feasable,
- Letting them stay and then denying them access to education and medical care is a pretty tough policy to sign into law,
- We all benefit from the cheap labor, even if we don’t like it,
4) Just because I’m opposed to illegal imigrants being rewarded for their law breaking, doesn’t mean that I have a workable solution!

As far as Clinton ... his economy was fairly good. His personal character and the stain left on the White House because of it, will be a disgrace he brought on and it will always be there.
President Bush deserves much credit for sticking to his guns on Iraq. I don’t have his faith or trust in Iran or North Korea. I think he has resigned himself to the idea that there is not much he can do now about them. He also gave us Judge Roberts and Judge Alito. The birthing of Alito required a conservative midwife. The President’s primary fault outside his consist inability to as an administration make a case and defend itself against the left is that he tried to graft conservatism onto liberal institutions in the hope that the graft would eventually take over the whole. This compassionate conservatism did not work.
It left conservatives with no high ground on fiscal matters and it led us to the loss of the House and Senate. This can not be ignored. He and his lack of leadership in dealing with problems among elected Republicans left the door open for the radical left to return to power and it is only by their total ineptness and the wholesale bankrupt nature of their ideas that they have failed in their goals of dominating government. They took the spotlight, they tied their success to the failure of US interests and they are now reaping the rewards.
I think President Bush will be seen as a mixed bag politically and historically for some time. He is a man who could’ve led the charge against the left after 9-11 and united those who love America as Americans but he chose to sit back in his CEO chair and manage it like the diplomats who so horribly failed before 9-11. I’m proud that he took the fight to the enemy and refused to retreat from it. Not many would have had the courage to stand the barrage of a beating he did not always deserve.
That said I’m proud to have voted for him but I will not vote for another CEO president again. I will not vote for the compassionate conservative who thinks compassion is adopting liberal ideas and stamping them as conservative.
Not again. Not when there are other options. Not as long as one conservative is left standing and if there are none I would rather not vote at all if not for the plight of our troops who I would never cast into the hands of the left no matter how much I am disgusted with what Massachusetts and Arkansas has spit out for us to consider.
Reagan was a disaster too. I remember hearing that all the time. Made fun of him for being an actor.
Now the left’s buzzword is how dumb Bush is...people like MArty Sheen who didn’t make it out of high-school making fun of W who went to both Yale AND Harvard.
Too funny and so desperate.
As usual.
On 2nd thought, I’d move Clinton up a notch, too. The damage he did by his sellouts to the Chicoms hasn’t been revealed yet. I hope my sons don’t pay the price for his traitorous actions.
