I am really tired of this guy and his lies. He has done nothing but damage this country for the last 5 years. I am sick of him and his liberal pals trying to take our freedoms away from us. He and the liberals want to take our guns away, they take money from hard working people and give it to lazy people who have 15 kids and don't work, they want to give rights to illegal immigrants, they want to raise the minimum wage, this country is in so much debt, and Obamacare is a joke. I am sick of Obama and all politicians. We need to take our country back. There are no jobs, most people are on welfare and unemployment, and taxes are high. Plus, he has no idea how to handle ISIS and he plays golf and goes on vacations while there are problems in this country and around the world. This is the worst administration in the history of the United States. It is filled with nothing but lies, incompetence, socialism, and scandals. Anyone who believes a word that comes out of Obama's mouth is an imbecile.

Try making a cogent argument that isn't just an echo of Rush Limbaugh. Your complaints aren't even based on reality, and I have criticisms of him too.

He's an idiot and a subversive but as far as worst president ever? He's got a lot of competition to beat to be crowned The Worse.

I wouldn't consider him the worst at all, not by a longshot. Personally, and I don't meant to cause argument here, his predecessor, GWB, deserves more blame than Obama does, I mean, to me, Obama was and is trying his damnedest to clean up the mess left behind by W. To me, I just feel that while Obama's presidency could have been worse, it also could have been so much better at the same time.

Pretty crappy, but hardly the worst. I might go so far as the most dishonest in my lifetime, as everything about him seems to have been a lie, but certainly not the worst of all time.

A lot of the accusations you have leveled against Obama here are lies and propaganda. I would sure be interested in seeing on your computer who you are influenced by.

Clearly you have not heard of Andrew " Old Hickory " Jackson. This man was a living wall of contradictions, he hated the rich but was one of the richest man in Tennessee who owned slaves. He said he didn't hate native Americans, but he didn't exactly treat them with respect that you would think he would for " not " hating them.
For example, he was apart of the Trail of Tears, or the Bill " The Indian Removal Act " which displaced many native Americans from their ancestral homelands. He didn't enforce it the next president did, but he did play a part in creating it. He also hated the national bank, and tried to kill it on multiple occasions. Which if he was successful would have seriously crippled the nation's economy. While he didn't create the idea of " Spoils of War " he was the first to capitalize big time on it. Removing massive chunks of the cabinet from his predecessor, and filling it with guys who probably were not the best for the country.
He truly believed that a politician's job was easy, and could be done by anyone from a farmer to a merchant. He may not have been the worst in some people's opinion, but he was the most terrifying by far.

At least Obama isn't a sociopath like Bush/Cheney who probably are ones.

meh.

In a historical context, I put him somewhere in the middle. There have been some truly despicable folks in office.

As for lying, that goes with the job (and has ever since Washington - who still partook in lies by omission). Even good ol' Honest Abe played the propaganda game (although he was pretty tame for his time period). You don't become president by capability or honesty; you get there by being the best B*llsh*t artist and always have.

Obama is a center/right Democrat who has done little to reign in the worst aspects of Wall Street which ruined our economy. He doesn't understand the energy situation. He can't work with congress (probably not all his fault). Tax loopholes are still rampant, the rich are taxed less than the poor. Congress is utterly corrupt (Dems slightly less so). His health care legislation was probably a good idea, but the implementation was a mess, and we need universal health care. He is not critical enough of Israel. But other than that, I think he's well meaning and sincere.

No one's guns were taken away, even if Dems got the gun control legislation they want, you could keep what you already have. You pay your taxes like anyone else, and it's perfectly acceptable that it go to poor people. The idea that those on welfare are lazy is largely a myth, and anyway I believe in a guaranteed minimum income with no requirements, for everyone. There is no easy solution to ISIS or the Islamic terrorism problem, so I don't know what he could do differently. No one wants more troops in the Middle East. Most of the so-called scandals are just hype.

Obama can't work with congress. The better question to ask is... who could work with them? With the way congress on both sides has acted towards everything. Filibustering anything left, right, and center that tries to get implemented. Heck, a few years ago we had that big scare about the budget, and our credit rating being dropped one level. I know everyone likes to blame the president for the budget because he is an easy target for it, but the people to blame are congress themselves. Since they're the ones who decide on the budget. They couldn't decide on how to spend it. Which caused all the tensions for the budget deadline because of their incompetence. Makes me wonder why we even have a congress, when they can't get anything done?

Other than that, yeah I agree with your statement.

Bush is worse than Clinton, Obama is worse than Bush, whoever follows in 2016 will likely be worse than Obama

this country is in steady decline, the police state has shown no signs of stopping and the presidency has become more and more an imperial one. No president ever cedes any power, eventually this will be a dictatorship. Do you think the American government actually represents the will of the people?

No decent person that is able to effectively run would want the job. We'll never have a good presidential candidate to vote for, just whoever we reluctantly see as the lesser of two douchebags.

Clinton was the worst. Then Bush was the worst. Then Obama is the worst. The next president will be even worse. See, it's progressive and it allows us to say that the next presidents is also the worse. And we can turn the back time and say that most presidents were the worst ever while they were president.
