George Bush Is The Worst President Ever
Surpassing even James Buchanan.
According to an article by Richard Reeves...
There are some numbers. The History News Network at George Mason University
has just polled historians informally on the Bush record. Four hundred and
fifteen, about a third of those contacted, answered -- maybe they were all
crazed liberals -- making the project as unofficial as it was interesting.
These were the results: 338 said they believed Bush was failing, while 77
said he was succeeding. Fifty said they thought he was the worst president
ever. Worse than Buchanan.
This is what those historians said -- and it should be noted that some of
the criticism about deficit spending and misuse of the military came from
self-identified conservatives -- about the Bush record:
- He has taken the country into an unwinnable war and alienated friend and foe alike in the process;
- He is bankrupting the country with a combination of aggressive military spending and reduced taxation of the rich;
- He has deliberately and dangerously attacked separation of church and state;
- He has repeatedly "misled," to use a kind word, the American people on affairs domestic and foreign;
- He has proved to be incompetent in affairs domestic (New Orleans) and foreign (Iraq and the battle against al-Qaida);
- He has sacrificed American employment (including the toleration of pension and benefit elimination) to increase overall productivity;
- He is ignorantly hostile to science and technological progress;
- He has tolerated or ignored one of the republic's oldest problems, corporate cheating in supplying the military in wartime.
