Is Obama the worst president ever?

[Stephanie]

Yes and an enemy within. he should have been impeached in his first term. but he's been allowed to stir up things that we are living with today. These BLM, OWS barging into place's where people eat, blocking off you way to get to work and the airports. invading shopping malls. riots and lootings, mass shootings, stuck on our backs ANOTHER government Entitlement when we could least afford it. and allowing in MILLIONS of illegal immigrants to come in and take away our jobs. and it's become an Obama Utopia. Transformation you voted for.

 

[Wilbur Right]

Do we have some of the most verifiable right wing suffers of ODS voting on who is the worst Pres ever?

Why yes we do.

Think I will disbelieve your polls. You all arent very reliable in your objectiveity.

 

[jknowgood]

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. I don't even give Obama that much credit.

 

[Care4all]

GW Bush still owns that...imo....and doubtful any future President will replace him.........

we are all living with the Bush mistakes, in the middle east, and here at home, and will be for another 50 years...in the least...

 

[jon_berzerk]

We actually had a vote on that in 2012

Republicans campaigned that Obama is the "Worst President ever"

Doesn't seem anyone believed it

they believed it

but the rino running against him was no better

shut up and just answer the question. no one cares who you think is objective or who suffers from this stupid ODS. Obama is hated by the majority of the people in this country. you can't deal with that go cry us a river

 

[Meathead]

Is Obama the worst president ever?

Yes

There are a handful of worse presidents as of now. Time will tell if he will sink all the way to the bottom.

 

[Stephanie]

The Left's Authoritarian Impulse Gets Exposed

It would be hard to measure how many times conservatives have been described as authoritarian. They want to control our lives! Impose their religious beliefs! Etc. Liberal writer Joe Conason, for example, wrote a book titled "It Can Happen Here," about the alleged authoritarian trend under President Bush.

The charge has always been highly dubious. Conservatives in the U.S. hew to the views of the Founding Fathers, who valued personal liberty above all else, and who worried most about a tyrannical central government. At the same time, it's liberals who have tended to support totalitarian regimes, praised China for its ability to "get things done," and has pushed endlessly to mandate, regulate and restrict behavior that they find unacceptable.

Now even some non-conservatives are starting to worry that the liberal left is drifting too far into authoritarianism.

In an excellent piece published in The Daily Beast, for example, Joel Kotkin lays out the particulars of "How Liberals Are The New Autocrats." Among them:

* California Gov. Jerry Brown's hailing the "coercive power of the state."

* President Obama's disdain for the democratic process when he can't get his way, and his "commonplace" efforts to rule by decree. (The latest example of which involves his executive orders on gun control.)

* Federal efforts under the Obama administration "to enforce racial and class 'balance' in neighborhoods."

* The desire to use climate change as "the killer app for expanding state control."

* The open calls on the left that "power should shift from naturally contentious elected bodies ... to credentialed 'experts.'"

Kotkin, who is a fellow at Chapman University in Orange, Calif., and executive director of the Houston based Center for Opportunity Urbanism, could have easily added to his list ObamaCare, which forces people to buy government-approved insurance or face a stiff one.

Or the left's disdain for free speech, exemplified by speech codes on campus and the Democrats attempts to impose federal restrictions on political speech. A YouGov poll last year found that 51% of Democrats say they favor criminalizing speech that could be deemed offensive.

Obamas done a great job .

Conservatives run around sayin "he's the worst" just cause they hate him. Saying it doesn't make it true .

Bet if he was white they'd only hate him as much as Bill Clinton Repubs are the party of bashing and hate That's ALL they do

Timmy Obama has done more for America than the last 3 republican presidents ...maybe even 4 put together

If you're talking about the debt he's done more than all of them

Remember Reagan TRIPLED and GWB DOUBLED our debt Repubs were silent

No, that's one thing I didn't like about Bush.

What about the debt and Bush?

Obviously you don't have ANY memory of what happened from 2001 to 2008. Let me refresh you as to why GWB will be considered a "great" president once
the biased MSM and ignorant people who formulated perceptions provided by the biased MSM regarding GWB.

Recession Are you aware that a recession started under Clinton and became official on 3/01 ended 11/01?
RECESSIONS are like football length tankers... it takes miles to turn one...i.e. so does a "RECESSION"... it doesn't just start the day NBER states.
It is a slow degradation and it started under CLINTON!!!
Source: USATODAY.com - It's official: 2001 recession only lasted eight months

A Major $5 trillion market loss
Are you aware that the dot.com bust occurred and cost $5 trillion in market losses?
AND GUESS WHAT LOSSES shelter other income from taxes!
So during the past few years these $5 trillion in losses have been against tax payments!

Again Clinton laid claim BUT someone had to pay and it occurred during Bush's first year!
$5 trillion in market losses MEAN lost tax revenue PLUS JOBS!!!!
According to the Los Angeles Times, when the dot-com bubble burst, it wiped out $5 trillion dollars in market value for tech companies. More than half of the Internet companies created since 1995 were gone by 2004 - and hundreds of thousands of skilled technology workers were out of jobs.
Source: The dot-com bubble: How to lose $5 trillion

The worst attacks on the USA in History.. 3,000 deaths!!!
Obviously most of you are UNAWARE 9/11 cost 3,000 lives,
$2 trillion in lost businesses,market values assets.
Jobs lost in New York owing to the attacks: 146,100 JUST in New York.
Are you aware this happened???
Year 2001: September 11 Terrorist Attacks
The 9/11 terrorist attacks were the events that helped shape other financial events of the decade. After that terrible day in September 2001, our economic climate was never to be the same again. It was only the third time in history that the New York Stock Exchange was shut down for a period of time. In this case, it was closed from September 10 - 17. Besides the tragic human loss of that day, the economic loss cannot even be estimated. Some estimate that there was over $60 billion in insurance losses alone. Airlines didn't fly for 3 days!
Approximately 18,000 small businesses were either displaced or destroyed in Lower Manhattan after the Twin Towers fell. There was a buildup in homeland security on all levels. 9/11 caused a catastrophic financial loss for the U.S.
Source: 10 Events That Rocked the Financial World

SO AGAIN you totally ignorant people like you don't seem to know THOSE ARE BUSINESS LOSSES as well as NO INCOME coming in to the companies!
Remember the Anthrax Attacks...
The 2001 anthrax attacks in the United States, also known as Amerithrax from its Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) case name, occurred over the course of several weeks beginning on Tuesday, September 18, 2001, one week after the September 11 attacks. Letters containing anthrax spores were mailed to several news media offices and two DemocraticU.S. Senators, killing five people and infecting 17 others.
I lived through it and like millions had hesitation to open any suspicious envelope. That happened millions of times!

$1 trillion in losses due to the WORST Hurricane SEASONS in history.
You seem to TOTALLY forget these were the worst hurricane SEASONS in history! The worst! No presidency every faced the following:
The worst, Katrina made landfall in Louisiana as a Category 3 in 2005.
It took 1,836 lives and caused $81.2 billion in damages.
It quickly became the biggest natural disaster in U.S. history, almost destroying New Orleans due to severe flooding.

Rank Disaster Year Deaths Damage* $250 Billion in damages in the 8 disasters of the top 15 disasters in history!
1. Hurricane Katrina (LA/MS/AL/FL) 2005 1833 $133,800,000,000
6. Hurricane Ike (TX/LA/MS) 2008 112 $27,000,000,000
7. Hurricane Wilma (FL) 2005 35 $17,100,000,000
8. Hurricane Rita (TX/LA) 2005 119 $17,100,000,000
9. Hurricane Charley (FL) 2004 35 $16,500,000,000
12. Midwest Floods 2008 24 $15,000,000,000
13. Hurricane Ivan (FL/AL) 2004 57 $13,000,000,000
14. 30-State Drought 2002 0 $11,400,000,000
Costliest U.S. Weather Disasters | Weather Underground

THESE events OCCURRED!
YET in SPITE of :
a) 400,000 jobs lost due to Hurricanes Katrina/Rita ,
b) 2,800,000 jobs lost in alone due to 9/11,
c) 300,000 jobs lost due to dot.com busts...
In spite of nearly $8 trillion in lost businesses, market values, destroyed property.. IN SPITE of that:

AFTER the tax cuts Federal Tax REVENUES Increased an average of 9.78% per year!!!
Government Revenue Details: Federal State Local for 2008 - Charts
2000 $236.2 billion surplus
2001 $128.2 billion surplus
2002 $157.8 billion deficit.. also 9/11 occurred and tax revenues lowered for years later
2003 $377.6 billion deficit.. BRAND new cabinet Homeland Security, plus loans made to businesses.. again tax revenues down..affect of 9/11
2004 $412.7 billion deficit.. Revenues up by 5.5% spending increased and economy getting back.
2005 $318.3 billion deficit.. revenues up by 14.5% deficit decreasing at rate of 22%
2006 $248.2 billion deficit.. revenues up by 11.7% deficit decrease 22%
2007 $160.7 billion deficit.. revenues up by 6.7% deficit decrease 35%
2008 $458.6 billion deficit.. revenues down and deficit INCREASED TARP loan mostly...
Historical Federal Receipt and Outlay Summary

Largest Gross Domestic Product in history!!
When Bush took office in 2001 GDP was $12.355,271,000,000
when Bush left office in 2008 GDP was $14,359,490,000,000
A 16% increase in GDP or $2 TRILLION.
So how did those gigantic events affect the Gross Domestic Product from 2000 to 2009?
So starting in 2001 132,548,000 people were working.
At the end of 2008 138,056,000 people working..

So once again tell me about the national debt increase under Bush especially the BIGGEST one time contributor TARP has paid back to the government and
made a profit!

The Troubled Asset Relief Program was passed in 2008, in the wake of Lehman Brothers' bankruptcy, as the nation's financial system was on the verge of collapse and economists feared another Great Depression. At the height of the bailout, Treasury owned a significant stake in all of the major U.S. banks, such as Citigroup (C) and Bank of America (BAC), two of the nation's Big Three automakers -- General Motors (GM) and Chrysler Group (FCAM) -- as well as one of its largest insurers, AIG (AIG).

 

[healthmyths]

How about some objective criteria .

Rather than spewing bullshit righty propaganda .

"spewing bullshit righty propaganda"?

Let's see:



Obama has added more to the national debt than all other presidents combined;


He has given aid and comfort to our enemies by releasing them from GITMO;


He has attempted to strike a deal with a hostile foreign nation behind closed doors and without the consent of the United State Senate being required as commanded by our Constitution;


He is allowing a thousand Islamic "refugees" into the U.S. each month without proper screening or a requirement they renounce an allegiance to their country of origin;


He has transferred America’s weapons of defense and military technology to hostile Islamic leaders [the Islamic Brother Hood];


He has assisted an Islamic terrorist state to move forward with producing the component parts for a nuclear arsenal;


He has worked to release $150 Billion in assets to the terrorist government of Iran;


He has allowed our southern border to be invaded by the poverty stricken populations of Mexico and Central America;


He has decided to prop up the communist government of Cuba by normalizing relations, which in turn will yield a needed infusion of money to strengthen this government’s iron fist around the necks of its citizens;


He has released thousands of criminal illegal aliens from our nation’s jails into our nation’s population;


He is responsible for undermining our election process by making it easy for ineligible persons to vote;


He has interfered with our nation’s ability to develop our nation’s natural resources, namely oil, coal and natural gas, to fuel our economy;


He has worked to stifle America’s agricultural industry and ability to produce food under the guise of environmental necessity;


He has intentionally sabotaged our nation’s health care delivery system;


He has blatantly impinged upon the American People’s inalienable right to make their own choices and decisions regarding their health care and medical needs;


He is responsible for a dramatic increase in the number of people receiving food stamps;


He is responsible for a dramatic drop in fulltime employment;


He is responsible for a dramatic increase in the unemployment rate among our nation’s Black and poverty stricken youth;


He has used the force of our federal government to tax the paychecks of hard working people living in our nation’s inner cities and then transferred $ billions from our federal treasury to his inner circle friends under the guise of “green energy” [Solyndra/Chevy Volt/Fisker, Exelon, etc.];


He has repeatedly circumvented our Republican Form of Government by issuing Executive Orders and memorandums;


He has stood by and allowed his Administration to use the force of the federal government to attack "conservatives" who dare to exercise their right to freedom of speech;


And he has now started to disarm local police forces which are America’s front line in dealing with domestic terrorism!



JWK







The surest way for Obama to accomplish his fundamental transformation of America is to flood America with the poverty stricken and destitute populations of other countries.

I heard that OBAMA controls the weather, the tides and the phases of the moon. Any truth to that? Or is that a liberal myth?

I also understand that OBAMA is soley responsible for the epidemic of ODS (Obama Derangement Syndrome) that has swept the country.

You know a lot about that though. YOU got it (ODS) BAD.

Well Obama DID say this:
"This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal." -- Barack Obama, 3 June 2008

And who can forget this paen to Obama..
The Editor of NewsWeek, Evan Thomas. Thomas was once asked about George Bush and this is his response.
"our job is to bash the president[Bush], that's what we do." Evan Thomas responding to a question on whether the media's unfair to Bush on the TV talk show Inside Washington, February 2, 2007.He-Could-Go-All-The-Way: 'Today' Cheers Obama's Football Play

RIGHT HIS job was to BASH Bush. He is a journalist. Unbiased. Objective. Professional. RIGHT??

But when it came to Obama??? This same hard-nosed "bashing journalist- Editor of NewsWeek gushed about Obama.....
"I mean in a way Obama’s standing above the country, above – above the world, he’s sort of God."
Newsweek’s Evan Thomas: Obama Is ‘Sort of God’
A professional NEWS editor calling a mortal man "sort of God"??? That's not reporting, that's gushing!
