George Bush: Worst American president in history



Recommended Posts

Wow....that's some irony right there.

Classic. I put this link on another thread but it bears repeating:

That's the kind of stuff I miss from Howard now that he's not on radio anymore.

When it comes to syndicated radio entertainment, there's nothing better than The Bob and Tom Show. I listen to it on my way home from work every morning.

Hilarious! This is why I say a test should be required before you are allowed to vote. You have to take a test for everything else, why is it so wrong to require it of you if you are voting for the most powerful position in the country, if not the world?

I've haven't heard them but I used to listen to Phil Hendrie (sp) he was so funny especially when he'd do the female characters. He would have these pretend people on the show, he did all the voices. Once he had a couple pretending they were parents who allowed their 13 year olds to have alcohol parties. It was really funny! Have you ever listened to him? I haven't heard him in a few years though but he was the greatest!:D

Amen! I've said that for years as well. A simple test on basic knowledge of American politics should be required. It's scary how incredibly ignorant some people are.

Well, pardon me if I don't read through 92 pages covering 2 years of posting...

The question: Is GWB the worst ever? Who knows. I don't believe we can sit this close in time and say. Ask again in 50 years.

Certainly he has not done a good job. His actions have taken some bad situations (World Trade Center, Katrina) and made them worse.

By taking FEMA and putting it under the department of Homeland Security, he took a bad local government in New Orleans and let Katrina become a national issue... and then didn't do anything to fix it even three years later.

By going to war with Iraq so as to find a terrorist in Afghanistan, he proved he doesn't know geography or military tactics.

So yes, I believe he is a bad president.

But to say the worst ever? Jimmy Carter's lack of any knowledge on domestic issues? Richard Nixon, who could have been great except for corruption? Certainly there are others before my lifetime.

Only time will tell.

Best president ever... William Henry Harrison. By dying only a month after taking office, he did nothing, but will be well remembered for the great slogan "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too!"

Thank you. I'm honored.

Don't know of any relatives in Oklahoma, but then again, Goad is such a small name that it can hardly go around more than one family.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
