Quote:You keep saying that FDR is the worst president ever because he did something that was much less malicious and far reaching than Nixon and those that have followed him did.


The five worst presidents:


"Dubya": allowed 9-11 on his watch, started two wars while cutting taxes, failed to create regulations that would have stopped the great recession of 2007.

Nixon: War on drugs, had an illegal deal with the Vietcong to keep the Vietnam war from ending so that he could win the 1968 election, Watergate, mafia dealings, possibly most directly criminal president of the nation ever.

Reagan: Deal with Iran to keep prisoners from being freed before election of 1980. Started the current seemingly endless cycle of insane federal deficit spending when he slashed the taxes on the super wealthy by more than half while raising the taxes on poor people resulting in an immediate national recession, S&L scandal, Iran Contra affair which was a direct result of his 1980 election deal.

Calvin Coolidge: "Dubya" of the 1920's from a regulatory perspective, it was his free market policies which lead to the 1920's mortgage bubble and great depression (sound familiar?)

Herbert Hoover: Basically what McCain would have been had he been elected. Threw all of the wrong switches, pressed all of the wrong buttons with the great depression and made what should have been something more like the 2007-current recession into the great depression creating the national appetite for FDR and his new deal.

I never even offered my opinion on who the worst president ever was. I only addressed your embarrassing comments about internment camps.


That you would dismiss it as no big deal is disturbing. What's almost as bad is the attempted deflection from what I'm sure that you realize was a terrible choice of words, at best.
