The Worst President In The History of The United States!
Say it with feeling folks because it’s not just a partisan political attack any longer. It’s not hyperbole. It’s not a cheap shot to get ratings. It’s as true as any unquantifiable statement can be.
Michael Jordan is the best basketball player ever. Hitler was the most evil dictator in history. Muhammad Ali is “The Greatest Fighter of All Tiiiiiime”. George W. Bush is the worst president in American history. Future generations will know these all to be universally accepted truths. In fact, most of us know it right now – which is a testament to just how awful of a job Bush is doing that we’re able to say this with such certainty even though he’s still a disaster in progress.
I know it’s hard to believe; after all he came to office with hardly any experience. He was unsuccessful in all of his prior business ventures. He showed such little character by using his dad’s connections to avoid being sent to Vietnam, and then he didn’t even fulfill his obligations in the National Guard (and to add insult to injury he struts around like a war hero; and doesn’t that about sum up the whole joke of Bush?). He had no foreign policy experience or interest prior to becoming president and had to be taught foreign policy only after he launched his campaign for president. He self-admittedly doesn’t read the news (we can assume this includes the "internets" as he likes to call it). He’s spent his life surrounding himself with kiss-asses and yes-men, and he can’t even speak well. Ok, so it’s very easy to believe. In fact, the only reason why someone could objectively doubt that he is our worst president is because it just seems too obvious to be true. However, unfortunately for us all, most of the time the truth is that obvious. When the sky turns dark gray and starts rumbling, usually it’s about to rain.
We now have for the third time a high level official from Bush’s first term stepping forward with scathing criticisms of Bush and the usual pack of neo-cons (Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, etc..). Colonel Larry Wilkerson was Colin Powell’s Chief of Staff at the State Department, and he is known to say what Colin Powell would agree with but won’t say publicly himself: that this is the most inept and dangerous administration that our country has ever known.
This is in addition to the testimony already on record against Bush that can no longer be denied. These are not low ranking officials people. This is Colin Powell’s “Scooter Libby” that is launching these attacks. And, it was also Clinton and Bush's Terrorism Czar, Richard Clarke, who attacked the administration previously. And, prior to that, it was Bush’s own cabinet member, Secretary of The Treasury Paul O’Neill that blasted Bush.
They all say – in a nutshell – that the administration was fixated on invading Iraq, regardless of evidence, and that the intelligence was fixed to lead us into an unnecessary war; and one that is going disastrously bad thanks to incompetent decision making by this administration. These are three top level insiders blowing the whistle on what all the circumstantial evidence already pointed to. And, there are also documents which support the same charge, namely The Downing Street Memo which states in black and white that the intelligence was being fixed to justify war. Taken as a whole this evidence is the smoking gun.
And, as if leading the country into an unnecessary war, which has killed almost 2,000 Americans soldiers so far, has been a gift to Bin Laden in his quest to convert jihadists, and has destroyed our stature in the world wasn’t enough, we also know this: Bush is inept at handling a natural disaster in our own country (4 years after 9/11 mind you), he appoints crony’s to some of our most important government jobs including head of FEMA and the Supreme Court, and his puppet master Karl Rove is as dirty a politician as they come and likes to leak classified information to try to silence anyone who points out the lies of the administration. And, on top of all of this, in the one thing conservatives are supposed to be good at – fiscal responsibility – Bush has shown himself to be more fiscally irresponsible than any other president ever. Maybe the title “Worst President In The History of The United States” doesn’t do justice to how poor of a job he’s done.
The prosecution rests.
