Forums - General - Obama might be the dumbest president we have ever had.

Yeah, its funny that people said Obama didn't have the experience to be President a few months ago, but now they are saying, "He is getting too much done! He is going too fast!" Apparently he is too effective!  God forbid the President do something rather than sit in office with his thumb up his ass.

People would complain if the President told them the sky was blue.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

You should know why we are always caving to Israel...

Final-Fan, Give Obama time, I am sure he will do as many things to piss you off as Bush did.

What seems like a stupid decision at the time, may end up being the most brilliant decision ever made by a president.  That's why basic History courses only go up to about 30 yrs before present day, because it is hard to interprete and cast judgement on history until it "becomes" history

 

I don't have the time or energy to respond to all of this, but I assume with the quote I left behind, you have yet to criticize the war in Iraq? I mean we still need to wait 20 something years before we know if it was a good idea or not.

I think mmnin is right, but the opposite can be true also.  The general public loved Roosevelt (elected him 4 times after all), but now we realize that his policies that was supposed to fix the economy was what caused the great depression and also prolonged it.  The saying "hindsight is 20/20" is very true.

Sometimes I think religion should be illegal.  And I say that as a Christian.

Roosevelt caused the Great Depression? ROFL I think you need to double check the history books.

FDR didn't cause the great depression, he wasn't even in office until years after it began.

As for prolonging it, the only thing he did that prolonged it was trying to balance the budget and cut government spending in 1937
