Every time I see his and Tucker's mom Marilyn, I expect her to whinny "...Oh, Wilbur".

But yes- it takes guts for one of the Quayle clan to knock ANY one else.

Dang Ron!

You BEAT me to it...

Not to mention he was also active on some Sexual Website in Scottsdale! lol

Just another run of the mill pale & male family values Christian for ya!

Ron, I was just going to say the same thing. Dan Quayle is probably the worst VP in American history and it is obvious the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree. His son is no better. It is the old saying: Stupid is as stupid does. hahahahahah

Just a scary thought, a Palin Quayle ticket in 2012. Oh god, I just threw up in my mouth.

Arguably Agnew was worse than Quayle. Quayle's son is no better? No, he is far worse than his father. Dan Quayle had a knack for saying stupid things, but he was not particularly mean-spirited like his son, who seems to have his generation's sense of entitlement and his party's double standards, in spades.

This is a riot. Ron in CT you made my day with that comment.

Oh my god did he ever see his father in action, Talk about dumb and dumber WOW

Ron in CT

Just a scary thought, a Palin Quayle ticket in 2012. Oh god, I just threw up in my mouth.

Oh geez.....I'm gonna have nightmares now!

You ‘Republicanites’ are a sad bunch. you have no one to lead, you hurrah for ANYONE who says the slightest thing AGAINST Obama. At first you all was for Palin, then a couple of other jerks and even a little boy who gave a good speech. Now this idiot who’s daddy couldn’t get voted in as President. Who’s next, the gecko from Geico. Face it: the Republicans has N-O-B-O-D-Y to lead the “Rebublicans”. That party has NOTHING to offer America and they roadblock any potential progress the country could make in these dire times. THE PARTY OF NO MUST GO…? Uh, corrections…THE PARTY OF NO MUST STAY AWAY! And the first Quayle failed us, this one would also. Just like the two Bush’s.

Woodrow Wilson was the worst president in our history!

Check out the chapters dedicated to him in "Lies My Teacher Told Me"

Obama does not even come close.

give me a break. the son of the worst vice president in history. a man that is an Indiana Republican. his objectivity is seriously in doubt. a tough way to clean up his family name. hope he isn't invited to a spelling bee.

Dan Quayles son? Who is he and what does anyone care what he or his dumb a@% father has to say. Like really! LMAO

This guy is just repeating what everyone else already knows. Hussein's borrow and spend administration is, was, and will continue to be a total disaster. He's a communist trying to direct a capitalistic country. No wonder he's fallen on his a$$ in every endeavour he's attempted. From his borrow and spend "stimulus" that has stimulated nothing but unemployment, to his disaster of a health care "plan" that is already raising premiums across the board, to his stupid "green" jobs that amount to no jobs at all. This guy has been a train wreck from day one. An arrogant idiot who thinks he's smart.

What's worse, a vise-president that can't spell potato right, or a president that thinks we have 57 states, and doesn't know that marine corps is not pronounced marine corpse?

He's already proved himself highly intelligent. He nailed Obammy to a "T".

Karol - You might want to check up on what Dan Quayle has been up to since leaving D.C. You're making yourself appear stupid.

Dan Quayle a dumbarse? Not by a long shot.

Sorry Ben. Any president that would choose Dan Quayle (Mr Potato(e) head) as his VP (or Dick Cheney for that matter) should be right up there in the running for the "worst" designation.....

"Drive-By ****" wants to know who to blame for the number of jobs lost in the last several years. Are you perhaps too young to remember 911? After that terrorist attack, construction, hospitality entities, airline industries, too name a few, suffered tremendously - it seemed like nobody wanted to stick their neck out to build, or to travel, to go out to eat, or to buy an extra little luxury which in turn created such a huge snowball effect with no money being exchanged that companies could not afford all of their employees; folks got laid-off from their jobs, unemployment was growing rapidly - banks were stuck with mortgages and eventually houses that nobody could or would buy.....etc, etc, etc. Now it doesn't really take a Rocket Scientist to figure this one out. (Although I would like to know who told F.M. & F.M. they needed to start giving mortgages to all of those folks who they knew couldn't ever afford it - perhaps you could look up your "Demo" favorites and find out who is to blame for that?!)

Obama isn't even close. First is Bush, then Carter, then Bush the elder.

"Porkbever" 'nough said... crawl on back to hillbilly holler, y'all.

What a maroon!

LOL, compared to Biden putting his foot in his mouth, Dan Quayle looks like a genius.

Well, I'm not impressed By Dan Quayle JR; however, he did "hit the nail on the head" regarding the Obama Presidency. Obama has lied to his own people; run the national debt up to shameful levels; has shown his contempt toward the Constitution and its' laws; and broken more campaign promises than kept. I work for a company in Nevada, that has been struggling to keep everyone employed; however, with the mandatory health care coverage starting soon, we've began cutting back lower seniority employees to two days a week and terminations will start soon. Thanks Barack Obama, Nevada has the highest unemployment rate in the country, and your Health Care bill costs will only drive that number up!

President Obama inherited the biggest mess ever left by any president. He also has to face a-holes like you stalling any progress to our country. Vote out ALL republicants ... they don't care about the people only about their stinking, rotten party. They should all be brought up for treason right asfter they hang Bush and Cheney for killing so many of our soldiers to line the pockets of their friends.

It's amazing how people like you can be so god.damned ignorant and hateful.

This guy is clueless, he postures that "My generation will inherit a weaken Country" and then immediately follows up with "Drug cartels in Mexico," This genius does not even know that Mexico is not part of this Country. Wow, all I have to say is wow.

This is funny. He should ask his father for advice, (lol)

The sad thing is he is right. Obama has no idea on how to be President. Spend money that isn't spent efficiently to help the economy/jobs, force healthcare on an unwanting population, and drive up the deficit. What could be worse than this. Hurry November.

Snuffe - It is refreshing to hear someone who is a Republican say they are indeed embarrassed by the personal attacks on our president. Hats off to you.

so all of you people that think Dan quayle was a horrible vice president can you site anything other than the fact that he had potato misspelled on a card that was given to him when he was judging a spelling bee? Can you name anything he did that was bad for the country?

yeah, just what we need one of our representitives looking for sex on the internet

that is a joke,more people need to sit back and take a look instead of passing judgement so easily.this mess that we're in here----he's tryin' to correct it, if some people would just shut up and listen to him---maybe we could get through this alot faster without them being such a hindrance.tell him to call george jr up and get some answers as to why we're in this predicament in the first place. he'll never get elected to anything unless there's a lot of stupid peopled who really believe him.

this is too ridicules for me........the son of mr. potato head spewing mud.

Worst president of all time? Just goes to show how we have turned into a nation of overweight retards. I'm guessing now that 2000 to 2008 never happened, right?

yea like odumbo has been to 57 states multiple times.

odumbo also repeated multiple times navy corpseman LOL

what a dolt

Yes Ron, his Dad couldn't spell 'potato', the son can't spell cat.

lol you guys pro obama are all idiots!! one day you'll wake up and find that it was him who has ruined our country... HEALTHCARE is screwed!!!! thats just one HUGE thing....and all the LIES hes told....obama lovers shut your mouths.....you have all forgotten what America is. we need to get back on track and following obama the biggest idiot in history is not one way!

What's the problem? Obama IS the worst president in history. Period. End of story...

Let's see... who would I rather have for president -- someone who can spell "potato," or someone that understands the importance of NOT spending money that the country does not have? That is one of the problems with the liberal left. They place undo importance on things like spelling of words, or taking care to not disturb a desert lizard habitat while at the same time they believe it is fine to disregard things that every honest taxpayer knows is a must... to spend LESS money than they take in. NOT MORE! Like all comunists, the liberal left does not care about country, or survival. They do not look ahead to understand the final result of what they are fighting for... the destruction of the USA as we know it!

Potatoe is a correct spelling of the word. Try using the Queen's English.

And for those of you who are totally clueless, the spelling of potatoe was on a flashcard provided by the TEACHER. Why don't you make fun of the teacher who wrote the word?

Because that never helped your side's agenda.

Dan Quayle was never stupid. To bad 52% of the voters in this country are.

Toby

The cost of health care was going up 20% a year. People were being denied coverage when they became seriously ill. Children were being denied coverage because of pre existing conditions. The health care system was already screwed up before healthcare reform was ever passed. At least they attempted to regulate the healthcare industry.

I wonder if this guy knows the old saying: "People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw rocks?" If I had the skeletons in my closet this guy has I wouldn't be knocking Obama or any other POTUS for that matter! I dislike Obama's policies and firmly believe he is destroying this country's economy. That being said, if he is the worst President in history or not, only time will tell. While he's only been in office less than two years, it's not looking too good for him at this point. But as I said time will tell and there is still hope he will wake up.

I never thought much of his old man, but the kid happens to be right about Obama. The truth must hurt because all of you leftos seem to need a whole lot of comforting among yourselves. Why else would you waste your time with the son of Dan Quayle? Any of you having buyer's remorse yet? Wait until November. You'll finally get the message then.

I guess this joker has been living under a rock for the last 10 years. The worse president in US history is that idiot Bush, junior who started a war to line his and his friends's pockets with hard earned citizens' money

He is 100% correct... Quayle or not.... Obama is the worst President to ever step into the oval office. A sell out to the United States... a compromiser to those who would love to see us crumble. Many of those who are not paid to post the propoganda of the left... are too naive to know what has made this country great! Unfortunately... they vote.

Sad days...

You want some dirt on this guy check this article (in vanity fair magazine) out about his "raunchy" website.
http://www.vanityfair.com/online/daily/2010/08/post-36.html

Obama's the worst President!?!?!?! Are you serious!?!?!?!? How do a country get so lucky to not get one....but 2 idiots for president AND they're related!!!!! Both Bush Administrations were the dumbest ever recorded. People are just expecting this immediate change from President Obama & he's still cleaning up the mess that bush left him!!! Ben Quayle!?!?! Are you serious!?!?!?! I'd have a better chance of my little nephew in office. Then the people that's really in his corner are just as stupid as he is!!!! Obama's being persecuted for messes HE didn't make!! Personally i think he's doing a kick ass job. It's PEOPLE that's lazy as hell....

What has our illegal president done? He's more than tripled our National Deficit, illegally rammed a healthcare package down our throats, illegally sits in th U.N. and should be tried for treason! Of course if Obama gets thrown out for illegally sitting as President, Biden would have to go too, and that would leave us with that gash Nancy!

You have to at least give him credit for not being a spineless wimp, which is already leaps and bounds above the pathetic group that cheers Obama and Calderon while they insult and sue Americans.

What we need is a reboot. All these families are bad apples, Obama's included. We the public need to know EVERYTHING about these people and their history before we vote. For anyone sticking up for Obama, yes he inherited the mess from bad predecessors. No, he has no solutions. No more single vine politics. No more spending, no more taxes, no more wars. It's idiotic that we keep the same bad politics over and over again. I'm for a government for the people, by the people... not a government for the elite by the elite. We need to stand ground as Americans and flush the beaureacratic toilet!

I would take that denigration of Obama by Quayle's son as a ringing endorsement that he is, in fact, doing a great job. I wonder who's running the Quayle puppet anyway with their hand jammed up his . . . Oh, well. You get the picture.

The worst president in history? This is coming from the son of Dan Quale the bird brain who couldn’t spell potato correctly. I would have to say the worst president would be Bush. It was Bush who took a vibrant economy with a record Federal surplus and ran it into a record deficit and the economy into the ground, and you know what he did such a good job I doubt this country will ever get back again. It was Bush who failed to kill or capture Bin- laden, it was Bush who failed to destroy al-Qaida and the Taliban, and it was Bush who failed in the war on terror. It was Bush who and his incompetent administration that let New Orleans fail during Katarina, It was Bush who showed to the world that American democracy is a hoax. After losing the 2000 election it was Poppy Bush’s appointments to the Supreme Court that gave the election to Bush even thou he lost the popular vote. The Bush administration was the biggest debacle in American history.

'he's the son of a vice president perhaps best known for enduring ridicule after he flubbed the spelling of the word "potato." '

I seem to recall that Quayle was given a card by the teacher, who had misspelled Potato as Potatoe, and all Quayle was doing was going along with what the teacher wrote on the card. I suspect that Obama might have made the same mistake - Too bad our TEACHERS can't spell.

Google it on Wikipedia, and you'll see I'm right.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Quayle

Those who state Obama is the worst president in history are showing their ignorance. There were 43 presidents before him, and I'll bet they don't know a damned thing about any of them except George W Bush. Oh yeah, "Lincoln freed the slaves." Pathetic.

Doing a kick ass job? ARE YOU SERIOUS?

What do you think this fine man you call president is doing with all this stimulus money? NOTHING but continuing to increase Bush's record deficit' you mention over bull@!$%# programs. He's borrowing the money to facilitate his 'programs to fix America'.

Do you read your local news who are reporting what is being done with it? In Atlanta, they are using a LOT of money to fund promotion of a particular art. I'm a huge art fan but at this time and in our country's position, can the USA afford to spend the money on promoting art awareness? I don't see where that is something that will truly benefit ANYTHING but the deficit.

Fund the schools, public pools.. Hell, buy the state of Connecticut some toilet paper for Christ's sake!!

Excuse me..New Jersey ...

If my memory serves me correctly the nightmare called Katrina happened under the Bush Administration. Oh yes and 9/11 and then there is Iraq. All of these events are acts in which thousands of American citizens lost their lives. Now, lets get to the financial crisis also which began during the Bush Administration. Enron. GE, Bank of America. the entire mortage lending practices. I have named only some of the worst events I can remember in my adult life. The sad part is I think President Bush did the best he could with what he had. I also think this is true of President Obama. I am ashamed of how we treat our leaders. We have a responsiblity as citizens too. Forget the mudslinging for awhile. Dig in your heels and help each other. Republican, Democrat or Independents your all just people who bleed the same color blood and call yourselves Americans. Those of us who have done so much , for so long, with so little are tried of your bickering like children. GET A LIFE, SO WE CAN HAVE BACK OURS!!!!!!!

Hahahahaha! God this is good. I am laughing my @ss off. Laughing too hard to even type.... Quayle, should be ok on a hunting trip with dicky which can only shoot friends in the face and can not hit fowl... Quayle, hahahah, more like a turkey....

"After losing the 2000 election it was Poppy Bush’s appointments to the Supreme Court that gave the election to Bush even thou he lost the popular vote."

The presidential election isn't determined by popular vote. You probably shouldn't have been sleeping so much in school.

"If my memory serves me correctly the nightmare called Katrina happened under the Bush Administration. Oh yes and 9/11"

Bush caused a hurricane, and he's a terrorist who flew planes into the world trade center? Oh my god! He is really bad.

See lots of attacks of quayle mostly about the father, but not too many attacking his comments...

Most historians agree that James Buchanan was the worst president in U.S. history. Quite a few believe that George W. Bush was second worst. (Vice Presidents like Dan Quayle can't be rated, because mostly they don't do anything worthy of rating.)

A Congressional candidate who purports to rate a sitting president just two years into his first term, simply proves the candidate's ignorance and lack of qualifications for the job. What if Mr. Quayle is elected? Does he expect the President listen to him when his district needs something? Does the remark serve the constituents, or just generate press and help a big mouth win a primary? Mr. Quayle is patently unqualified for public service and he has proved it.

@ Christian1984, I assume that is your first name because it surely cannot be that you are claiming to be a "Christian". There is nothing "Christian" in your ignorant insult to our President. You are talking about the President of the United States, the Leader of the Free World, elected by an overwhelming majority of the people of this country. We are at war. In another time your comments would not only be regarded as unChristian, they would be treason! You should at least respect the office if not the man who occupies it.

I am fed up with all the name calling. Show some respect, people.

Dan Quayle didn't do anything as Vice President but make a spelling error and a few other gaffs. He was probably the unluckiest Vice President in recent history, but at least he did no harm. His son is just trying to capitolize on the mood in Arizona, he's an opportunist trying to get into politics. Ignore him and he will go away and go back to his internet porn.

I'm sorry guys, but Quayle wasn't the worst Vice President in our history nor is Obama the worst President. Those honors go to the dynamic duo of George Bush and Dick Cheney. Thanks guys for two unnecessary wars, near world wide financial collapse, the unconstitutional mis-named "Patriot Act" and worldwide condemnation for our attempts at "regime change". When we pull out of Iraq next year the Islamic fundamentalists will pour into that country and you'll have another Iran, if not worse. All thanks to the dynamic duo. Quayle and Bush Sr. at least had the sense not to take Bagdad and upset the balance of terror in the middle east.

I noticed that we are all piling on enmasse this morning. Obviously, we smell blood in the water, cheap glory, an easy kill.

You all know where I stand on the issues (that's me in the picture, standing a little to the left of Lenin and giving Stalin the bunny ears). I'm fairly liberal on social issues. But Quayle is a LONG way from the worst VP in history. That Honor goes to Cheney with Spiro Agnew a close second.

Now, let's get back to the real important issue facing us, getting out the vote this fall and reinstating the Fairness Doctrine.

PEACE

Obama's the worst president ever? His approval is at 40-some percent. GWB was in the 20's. Somtehing doesn't seem right, here.

Also- I like the idea of Palin/Quayle 2012, but have to ask: which one gets to play the woman?

Thanks for the link, Jeff (#1.46).

So apparently young Qualye has his father's IQ, but combined with a sleazy approach. He actively objectifies women on a local, rauchy website so I guess that tells us something about the "family values" he holds near and dear. That must be why he "borrowed" a family so that his campaign literature could picture him with two childrenthat aren't his.

Yep, gotta love that (Republican) hypocrisy...get the vote by any means, deceptive or not.

Obama's the worst president ever? His approval is at 40-some percent. GWB was in the 20's.

Apparently you missed the poll yesterday showing Obamas in the 20s.

You ‘Republicanites’ are a sad bunch. you have no one to lead, you hurrah for ANYONE who says the slightest thing AGAINST Obama.

You're describing the entire Democrat party and Bush bashing to a T. As for you talking about who they ran with, I wouldn't talk when you couldn't even come up with a candidate that could beat Bush in the 2nd term when his approval rating was below 50%.

The worse president in US history is that idiot Bush, junior who started a war to line his and his friends's pockets with hard earned citizens' money

Anyone who still doesn't know that a president (not even Obama) CANNOT start a war without Congress voting for it shouldn't be allowed to vote. Bush had the UN as well as all Dems who had been screaming about WMDs since Bush Sr pulled out of Kuwait without taking him out voting for it as well.

I'm independent. I voted for Ross Perot as my very first vote. But you guys on the left do everything you can to push me to voting Republican at every turn. Everything from calling me a racist for disagreeing with Obama to a scrotum squatter for agreeing that we have a problem with the current candidates on both sides of the aisle and wanting to join an org that wants to clean house of all those who vote against the will of their constituents. It's sad that the party of tolerance is now the Republicans.

I'll bet he knows how to pronounce Corps...(CORPSE???).

Hey Ben, I've seen Jefferson Smith, I admire Jefferson Smith, I wish today's leaders could govern like Jefferson Smith. Mr. Quayle, you're no Jefferson Smith!

How come my comment doesn't get any thumbs up? It's the wittiest one here!

If you have to ask for affirmation for your perceived wit in a comment, it probably isn't very witty.

Porkbevr,

You ARE aware that the term "Obammy" (#1.16) has racial overtones?

So you're one of the racists who is now out of the closet, are you? I suppose it's better to know that your disapproval of the president is based partially on the color of his skin, rather than something rational and important.

I am so sick of everything being "racial". Obama sucks as president because he sucks at being president. It has nothing to do with being Black.

When you say GW Bush was a bad president, was it because he was White? When people call GW Bush names is it because he's White? Are the ones who call Bush names all racists?

Stop using that stupid attack. It has been used more since Obama became president. You would think it would stop since Obama would not have been elected without the White vote.

I bet when he gets voted out in 2012 by the people who voted for him in 2008 it will be because he is Black and everyone who voted for him in 2008 became racists in 4 years. It would certainly have nothing to do with his Leftist agenda or the fact that everything he supports is opposed by at least 70% of Americans, Black, White, Brown and Red.

Yes they are all scum, but Obama is the absolute worst. Nobody has ever been the person he is. That is the worst ever!

You can say that again

what qualities and character did BO inherit from his father?

Stupid as stupid does...

You tallking about obama? How's the change working for you folks?

it is what it is!

stc-mLove the change! Would hate to think of what our country would be like if McCain/Palin had won the election.........

STC - Change away from the last 8 years of where the country was heading is exactly for what I was looking. I believe that anyone who is going to get our troops out of Iraq by year's end it exactly what I was hoping. I voted for universal healthcare. I voted for wallstreet regulation. I voted for a stimulus package to help with bridges and roads that were neglected for 8 years. That's the change I voted for. And I'm getting it.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."
-Albert Einstein

I thinks Einstein was refering to the Quales. Oops...did I misspell Einstein? Lol...

The time for change is NOW and I don't mean for another Republican who lies to the voters to get elected. NOW is the time for our leaders and the American people to say enough of the arguing and start thinking about what is right for our country and our people. We need to stop our jobs from going over seas. We are in this mess with our country because what our country was built on is all going over seas or the border. Who of our leaders will finally say enough and make a stand for the American people. The stimulus is for people who no longer have job that we have worked at for many years and then they say to bad we can make more money if the jobs move to Mexico or China. China not only has the jobs we also borrowed more money than any one American will ever make in their life time. So will someone please wake up and do something for the people. We lost the only person who fought for the working class and that was Ted Kennedy/

@stc1993 said: "You tallking about obama? How's the change working for you folks?"

Working pretty good. Better then the last guy.

Hey, how is repeating things Sarah Palin says working out for you? Getting any laughs with that?

Basedrum where is this happening at? I haven't seen any of it. All I've seen in my part of the world is things getting worse.

basedrum777

Universal Healthcare? Nope didn't do that

Wall Street Regulation? Nope didn't do that either, essentially 2000 pages of nothingness, when re-instating Glass-Stegall would have fixed most of the issues.

Iraq? Lol, that was Bush's plan, not the current Presidents.

Help with Bridges and Infrastructure? less than 7% of the $862 Billion went for infrastructure. (unless you count the tunnels for turtles).

You have set the bar low for the next President.

I'd give anything to have the elder or the younger Quayle as President right now. It sure would sure beat the devisive, America hating, economy destroying, idealogical, tree hugging, communist muslim piece of @!$%# we have in office right now. How you folks can defend Obama after watching him purposely destroy what once was the greatest nation on earth brick by brick and all the while embrace our enemies is absolutely incredible. You still believe you are going to get something for nothing. You pariahs are shameful. Long live the "Party of NO(vember)".

When Reagan was in office, we had Bob Hope and Johnny Cash. With Obama we got no Hope and no Cash!

david65: hahahahahahahahaha! ha

"stc-mLove the change! Would hate to think of what our country would be like if McCain/Palin had won the election........."

Well let's see, they wouldn't be suing our own states for trying to protect themselves, they wouldn't have forced the passage of an immensely unpopular and likely illegal health care (insurance) reform bill, they wouldn't have lied to everyone about ending wars before it was possible to do so, Etc.

basedrum, you do realize that the troop withdrawal plan for Iraq came out of the Bush administration, right? Like most of Obama's successes, he simply adopted the Bush agenda, this way when it fails he can blame Bush.

Yeah, that's the only chance Obama has if those two run together..................

LOL

President Obama has done everything he can to clean up the mess the disasterous policies, failure to read or understand history, and shameless greed the GOP did to this country. It's great to see my president on the television and not have to scream "stupid bast*ard", like I did everytime I saw George "Dubya" Bush trying to form an intelligible sentence. The aftermath of Dubya and President Cheney's incompetence just keeps on creating fires for President Obama to put out. I find it alarming that so many people are willing to give up their Constitutional rights (and everybody elses), to right wing extremists and greedy opportunists like Sarah Palin, Glenn "Toyko Rose" Beck, and Red Limbaugh in exchange for having someone else do your thinking and reading for you. Turn off the stupid smirking twits at Fox Lies and Right Wing Mind Control Central and pick up a newspaper!

Nicely done, Paul.

GLO,

Have you heard Obama without a teleprompter? Enjoy........................

Obama is victim of Bush's failed promises

Barack Obama is setting a record-setting number of records during his first year in office.
Largest budget ever. Largest deficit ever. Largest number of broken promises ever. Most self-serving speeches ever. Largest number of agenda-setting failures ever. Fastest dive in popularity ever.

Wow! Talk about change.

Just one year ago. fresh from his inauguration celebrations. President Obama was flying high. After one of the nation's most inspiring political campaigns, the election of America's first black president had captured the hopes and dreams of millions. To his devout followers, it was inconceivable that a year later his administration would be gripped in self-imposed crisis.

Of course, they don't see it as self-imposed. It's all George Bush's fault.

George Bush, who doesn't have a vote in congress and who no longer occupies the White House, is to blame for it all.

He broke Obama's promise to put all bills on the White House web site for five days before signing them.

He broke Obama's promise to have the congressional health care negotiations broadcast live on C-SPAN.

He broke Obama's promise to end earmarks.

He broke Obama's promise to keep unemployment from rising above 8 percent.

He broke Obama's promise to close the detention center at Guantanamo in the first year.

He broke Obama's promise to make peace with direct, no precondition talks with America's most hate-filled enemies during his first year in office, ushering in a new era of global cooperation.

He broke Obama's promise to end the hiring of former lobbyists into high White House jobs.

He broke Obama's promise to end no-compete contracts with the government.

He broke Obama's promise to disclose the names of all attendees at closed White House meetings.

He broke Obama's promise for a new era of bipartisan cooperation in all matters.

He broke Obama's promise to have chosen a home church to attend Sunday services with his family by Easter of last year.

Yes. it's all George Bush's fault. President Obama is nothing more than a puppet in the never-ending. failed Bush administration.
If only George Bush wasn't still in charge, all of President Obama's problems would be solved. His promises would have been kept, the economy would be back on track, Iran would have stopped its work on developing a nuclear bomb and would be negotiating a peace treaty with Israel. North Korea would have ended its tyrannical regime, and integrity would have been restored to the federal government.

Oh, and did I mention what it would be like if the Democrats. under the leadership of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, didn't have the heavy yoke of George Bush around their necks? There would be no ear marks, no closed-door drafting of bills, no increase in deficit spending, no special-interest influence (unions), no vote buying (Nebraska, Louisiana).

If only George Bush wasn't still in charge, we'd have real change by now.

All the broken promises, all the failed legislation and delay (health care reform, immigration reform) is not President Obama's fault or the fault of the Democrat-controlled Congress. It's all George Bush's fault.

Take for example the decision of Eric Holder, the president's attorney general, to hold terrorists' trials in New York City. Or his decision to try the Christmas Day underpants bomber as a civilian.

Two disastrous decisions.

Certainly those were bad judgments based on poor advice from George Bush.

Need more proof?

You might recall that when Scott Brown won last month's election to the U.S. Senate from Massachusetts, capturing "the Ted Kennedy seat," President Obama said that Brown's victory was the result of the same voter anger that propelled Obama into office in 2008. People were still angry about George Bush and the policies of the past 10 years. and they wanted change.

Yes, according to the president, the voter rebellion in Massachusetts last month was George Bush's fault.

Therefore, in retaliation, they elected a Republican to the Ted Kennedy seat, ending a half-century of domination by Democrats.
It is all George Bush's fault.

Will the failed administration of George Bush ever end, and the time for hope and change ever arrive?

Will President Obama ever accept responsibility for something... – anything?

Chuck Green – Denver Post

You are right. He shouldn't say that. The proper context would be, if Obama continues with the same policies he will be by far the worst President in history.

Glo25420, The only way that you could say that this idiot in Washington is a good president is if you are a devout muslim standing in the hand out line at your local government store. moron.

Dy-no-mite you hit the nail on the head it's all Bush's fault.

Thanks Chuck. It's seldom mentioned about the dems controlling the house and senate the last part of Bush's term. Easier to blames the republicans for everything. Dems seem to do a lot of hating. And when nothing else works - play the race card.

Obama wants to control every aspect of our lives.

you most certainly have fallen off the deep end!!! get some counseling!!!

If anyone is posting comments towards me, regarding the article I posted.

Go look up who Chuck Green is.

He's a life long Democrat and writes for a liberal paper.

Difference is. He has the intellectual honesty to tell the truth.

Dy-no-mite,

I'm betting they won't look it up. I've read the article a few months ago. Funny, you got a "Shut UP" to it's Bush's fault. Those are the answers you will see. You might get a "Rightie" comment or you're a Racist. That's my favorite, I've been called that for disagreeing.

Good Post....................

rastaman44,

Tell me ONE thing in that article that isn't true.

Just one.

Based on facts, not just your opionion or feelings.

Try hard. I know it hurts when you libs have to think on your own.

SUCH An Awesome Post <3 <3 <3 <3 You Nailed Every Point On The Head. Obama Fails. People That Dont Realize This Are Brainwashed Fools. Or Paid To Say Idiot Remarks. I Just Hope These Fools Wake Up. :D Article Genius Dy-No-Mite!!

Thanks Dy-no-mite I'll have to look him up. Sounds like he has some good sense. Just like Bill Cosby did, he tells the truth and a lot of people don't really want to hear the truth.

I would have changed one word Glo, so nearly all would agree, I couldn't have said it better myself. Ditto, Amen and Amen. And how about what these "The World is Flat hypeocrit's" are trying to do to millions of The Children of our United States. It's as bad as what happened to children in the times of Moses and Jesus. Yet they choose to silence the voice of same shared eternal Life within us all and choose to listen to the, it helps Me trained, twisted by peers, collector of self-knowledge, brain. It yearns to be as Life itself yet expires faster than a pet rock when just one of the puzzle pieces around it is lost.

The Greek Demosthenes learned, if I'm following the dots on some old notes correctly, "Nothing is easier than self-deceit. What each man wishes to be that he also believes to be true. To rationalize their lies, people (looks like I missed a part here??) are apt to regard their private interests and desires as just." Feel free to correct the quote, it's as close as I can do with my notes =/

These times now remind me so much of the late 70's as we are faced with many of the same issues Carter, and too few others around this world, faced and tried to address. Yet we've made zero progress, in fact it's worse, I remember many leaders of that time frame using a catch phrase, something like "if we follow this path our childrens' children will be paying for it and we can't allow that" Well take a good look at me(us) now, they were all just a bunch of greedy, me always first, it's in the interest of my family, some of whom might lose citizenship, double talkers.

My final yearbook. about that time, was signed with... hmm... was it "Always be true to yourself" or "Never lie to yourself" don't remember now but hoped it was what the life inside me wanted to convey. May My/OUR President Obama and The U.S.A. find strength in both of those statements holding them close to OUR hearts. Many of the hot shots in this day and age wouldn't know the difference.

Finishing story if adlib doesn't fail.

A great patch of land on the western ocean was discovered by a a handful of families that had known each other for generations. The area was so wonderous that soon all the most talented people in all the surrounding areas gathered there. And then people from lands bordering the surrounding areas heard of this place and a great city arose.

Then one day a few nomads from the east started trickling in and about. Soon the wonderful leaders of the great city decided the time had come to reach out to the nomads. They sent scholars to teach them common language and soon a meeting of leaders was set and wisdom exchanged.

When the time came for the nomads to return home a last meeting was held as the city elders needed to have them post a warning amongst the tribes. It read "Never travel across the ocean into the sunset from The City, hundreds have gone that way over past thousand years and all but a couple have fallen off the edge world never to be seen again." The elders had told those fools heading into the sunset across the ocean "The world is flat and you will fall off of it." Even those that returned were made to be peasants. The nomads replied "That's good to know as our ancestors came across the ocean from the east and were told they would fall off the edge of the world" And they lived happily everafter. Oh, almost forgot, the posters did come down after a nomad invented the flying machine.

Dude, please shut up. The Fixed news talking points are well noted.

Since you used the plural 'talking points', I challenge you to find 2 things in that list that you can PROVE are "fixed news". The only "fixed news" are the ones who still repeat the rhetoric that has been disproven and posted all over the web in videos from the Democrats own mouths proving otherwise. Want proof? Just go to youtube and type 'Democrat WMD' and see what Al Gore, Pelosi, Reid, and others REALLY think about Iraq WMDs. There's one of Al Gore going into a screaming fit because Bush Sr pulled out of Kuwait without taking out Hussein first.

I quit counting at 4 as 2 of those could be rationalized as factual. With the use of words some of those statements are credible but not undebatable. If we understand what it says but don't understand what it's saying, as happens to all of us all to often, make it a good point? If used with purpose, even unknowingly, it's a powerful but unstable force that will turn around and bite us when least expected.

But, he is running in Arizona. Who knows.

Well, CA, it looks like he's going to need SOMETHING to grab the attention away from the other candidates - I mean, TEN Republicans fighting over one seat in a conservative district? I'd love to hear what the other 9 have to say to counter this. And I thought us Democrats were supposed to be the ones with the unity problem this year!

JoAnne:

Most likely they will all take turns claiming that "I was the first" to say that President Obama was the worst U.S. President. No will say the others, I was the first. Then one or more will pipe up and say but they said that Obama was a worser President than the others did. Then a few will try and doctor pictures to show one or more of their opponents standing somewhere within 100 miles of Obama with the picture caption reading: You can't trust so and so. They stood close to President Obama.

Obama will not be the worse president historically, he will rank in the same zone as Hoover, which is neither bad nor good. His economic policies are quite bad, and getting worse. This places him above Grant, who had economic problems, but his involvement with corruption pushed him down to the worse president. Buchanan is my choice for worse, as the Civil War started on his watch, but historians give the rating of worse usually to Grant.

As to be historically easily forgotten, Obama is not going to be forgotten, so he won't enter the zone of one of the forgettable presidents like old what's his name...

Obama, unlike Ike or one of the Adam's family, isn't extremely boring. On the other hand unlike Ike, Obama has little respect in Europe. Also, Ike really got the economy going after the Truman show. Under Ike, the US exited the Depression with the Stock Market hitting the same level as 1929 in 1959.

Nope, Obama isn't the worse president, he is just a bad president. Not evil like Nixon or Johnson. Not even mildly interesting like Wilson. Not a deep thinker like Jefferson. Not an idiot like Taylor.

He is a better speaker than the Bush Family, and so far he has kept his pants on unlike Clinton. Unlike Clinton Obama apparently has picked the pockets of the taxpayers, but that is normal for any politician.

So, bottom line: Obama is "normal" and "average", and will be on par with G.W.Bush (sorry liberals) but will be remember as the first African-American President. Now that the voters in the US has accomplished voting in an African-American, can we move on and get someone good.

SoCal...beautifully written, and for the most part, very accurate. I agree with you on Grant and Taylor, but surprised no comment on McKinley. We still have two more years with Obama, so it is truly only fair to say the jury is still out. He could make a wonderful comeback. I would like to see that, for the country's sake, but I'm not holding my breath. Who knows, maybe he can pull a rabbit out of his hat.

You have no idea what you are talking about SoCal. The Healthcare bill was an exceptional victory, just too watered down by the petty party of no. They have a lot of improvements to make after the Dems gain a super majority in the senate this November. Voters are not so dumb that they actually vote for the tea baggers.

If Obama has little respect in Europe, our last Bush had NO respect whatsoever from our European comrades! I've been working in Europed these last couple of years, and Europeans seem to love Obama. Then again, I am only speaking of Western Europe :)

I can assure you that Obama is actually WELL liked and respected in Europe... And history will show (provided he can get things accomplished with the Party of No trying to undermine him every step of the way) that he is actually one of the better Presidents this country has ever seen.

Mac, please enlighten us on how the Republicans "watered down" the health care bill. As you recall, they were locked out.

I remember (the prez) buying off the senator from Nebraska.

American87,

I was in Germany last month during the World Cup, I didn't see that........I know the German Chancellor isn't happy with Obama..

rastaman44,

I notice you're one of the "free speech" liberals.

Every comment you don't like, you tell people to shut up.

I'm glad you're practicing your freedom to be a fascist.

I can think of a few other political figures that were popular in Europe at one point in time.

Adolf Hitler

Vladimir Ilich Lenin

Joseph Stalin

Benito Mussolini

Fransico Franco

Josip Tito

and Alexander Lukashenko

So Obama's in good company.

This is America pal. Name one president in america that was once popupar ,but failed. All those failed promises ,none affected the economy. Two wars did ,the sub prime melt down did. The greed of the repulicans with Wall st.The idea the given tax breaks to the rich creates jobs. How many jobs has Rush and Glenn Beck created with their new found wealth. The tax payers has to pay for this tax breaks.,

SoCal -- The voice of authority. How many times have you won the lottery with that crystal ball or ouija board, or whatever you use to tell us how history will be written a hundred years from now? Rhetorical question. No answer expected.

I'm also wondering how you seem to know the Adams family was "boring"? Were you there? If you're referring to John and Abigail Adams, are you serious? Ike was boring? A World War II general? What a h*ll of a nerve. Again, rhetorical questions.

What, a WWII general can't be boring? I think I'll stick with SoCal.

Tina -- Reminds me of Dubya appointing people based on whether he'd like to have a beer with them or not. When you and SoCal accomplish as much as Eisenhower, then get back to us. In fact, all of SoCal's post was biased nonsense.

"Reminds me of Dubya appointing people based on whether he'd like to have a beer with them or not."

That's better than Clinton's selecting interns based on whether he'd share a cigar with them.

Hey Dyn-o-dick, So you hate Obama, we get it, you made your case. Your huge post was impressive, you really did your homework and exposed our dear leader for what he is, a damned promise-breaking liar. But even so, still better than any republican. So SHUT-UP now.

The Healthcare bill was an exceptional victory, just too watered down by the petty party of no.

Perhaps you don't understand what the term 'supermajority' means and why the Dems were in a race to pass the bill before the first summer break. The Republicans weren't even invited to the closed door meetings where the bill was being written. Dems saying on TV that they hadn't even read it yet while promoting that this must be a good idea because the other side is voting 'no, we haven't read it yet and you haven't either'. Take off the party blinders. They're all crooks....both sides.

Check your pay stubs vs last years and tell me how much your health care has gone down. It's up to over $20K per family of 4 now. How many jobs you think that's going to keep employers from posting when the cost per employee goes up that much?

Expato,

Just cause you have nothing intelligent to say, don't resort to name calling like all the other dem's

Some one might think youi are just plain ignorant.... Not me but someone.

expat08,

That's what you come up with? Shut up? Brilliant!!

Yea, that's right fartyboy and nosensedude, SHUT-UP! Nothing you say or do will change anything. Your opinions are boring and totally predictable so keep them to yourself. You hate Obama, just hate, hate, hate Obama. You keep saying it over and over again, so I say SHUT-UP!

I do have something to say to you nosensedude, perhaps not something intelligent, but here goes-

Du bringst mich zum kotzen, du blöde Mistkerl

expato

Heil Hitler you loser. Fortunately your ancestors got theirs in the 40's. Unfortunately our pres did not let us march your uncles into the sea, and be completely rid of you.

But I digress, you are still thought of as ignorant..... as you said not intelligent. But typical of socialist liberals such as youself

KeepN it Real

what i can't stop thinking about were those SNL skits with a little boy playing Dan Quayle. i guess the apple does not fall far from the tree,

Loyd Benson said and so true, Sir i knew Jack kennedy, your no Jack kennedy.

And the fact you are unable to differentiate between "your" and "you're" shows you're no Jack Kennedy either.

Clearly this young man is pandering to the far right, but the actions he is referring to ring true. We can't decide if Obama is the worst for some time, but to argue he is doing well is displaying an ignorant view. Also, to address a comment above, because Obama is a competent public speaker doesn't make him more intelligent, and it also regrettably does not make him a better President.

President Bush made mistakes like every President, and every human being, but he made decisions based upon past administrative experience. Obama has none. He is a smooth talker, and that does NOT make him a competent President.

Re: Quayle and spelling. In contrast, it's never mentioned about Al Gore (when he and Bill were touring the White House) asking who was the person in a portrait. It was George Washinton.

whosit - that is pure bull and you know it. STFU.

The kid comes across like a weak pussy trying his best to look tough. Sorry but nobody is buying it. Knock the hell out of Washington? lol The boy is lucky if he doesn't get bitch-slapped!

Actually Whosit, .... Jac- is right.. . it was a Bust sculpture of George Washington, and if you watch the Video of it you can See Bill Clinton shake his head in Disgust and walk away quickly

Frank:

He spelled potato - potatoe. And not only did he do it on a schoolroom blackboard in front of a bunch of elementary school kids, but when told he spelled it wrong by a couple of aides he argued with them in front of the kids that his spelling was the correct spelling, potatoe.

As to why he was the worst VP in history. Take Palin's mind and put in into Quail's body or vice versa and there you have it.

Your Mom is right Grimey... you are WAAAY to young to be as cynical as you are about politics! ;0p

He spelled it potato(e)...

Then there was also the time he was driving by a Burger King that had a "Help Wanted" sign in the window and he went out of his way to explain to reporters how that proved we had no problem with unemployment in this country......

Or the fuss he made over "Murphy Brown" having a baby on tv (the character was single) proving that we were all drowning in immorality......

I'd ask who Murphy Brown is, but I think I might get slapped!! ;-)

Grimey... you're on a roll today... *rolls eyes* lol

I have to admit that as I was pretty young myself and not that involved in politics at the time... reading these comments is like a walk down memory lane!

I had forgotten ALL about the Murphy Brown brouhaha! (sp?)

If I recall, he actually was telling a student who was writing it on the board to add an "e".

Jody:

Right, he told the kid he was wrong and put an "e" on the end of the kid's correct spelling of potato. Boy oh boy does that sound like a Palin moment.

Oh and he compared himself to John F Kennedy in a debate with Lloyd Bentsen that resulted in the classic line 'I knew Jack Kennedy and you are no Jack Kennedy'

I remember the ten thousand points of light line by Bush...did anyone ever figure out what that meant? but not a one shined on Quayle or his son

picture obama driving a car or a nail,quail was ackward when on t.v. might have been great in private.

I loved the Murphy Brown dust up. There was a shortlived sitcom at the time that was centered around an aging, not quite on top of his game member of Congress. His staff brought him up to speed on the Quayle/Brown controversy and the Congressman said "Has anyone told Quayle she's a fictional character?"

Dan Quayle was there to insure that no one would shoot at George Bush. I mean would you want to be the person that put Dan Quayle into power.

Don't forget his address to NASA, in which he began it - "My fellow astronauts". He was just a massively stupid guy. This is pretty common nowadays in politics, but back then, politicians at a high level had to at least pretend to have a brain.

57 states and the Marine corpse. And "corps" was spelled correctly on the teleprompter every time.

And, y'know, Quayle (or Quail for most regular left wing First Read posters) was the vice-president and therefore not worth a bucket of warm spit in the first place.

"Corpse". Say it again (which he did): "Corpse".

I'm not going to let it die. Let there be no misunderstandering that the current prez has been routinely misoverestimated.

He also gave us such gems as:

"I was recently on a tour of Latin America, and the only regret I have was that I didn't study Latin harder in school so I could converse with those people." —Dan Quayle – Republican VP with G.W. Bush, Sr.

or: "If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure."
or: "One word sums up probably the responsibility of any vice president, and that one word is 'to be prepared.'"
or: "The Holocaust was an obscene period in our nation's history. I mean in this century's history. But we all lived in this century. I didn't live in this century."

or: "I have made good judgments in the past. I have made good judgments in the future."
or: "We're going to have the best-educated American people in the world."
or: "I love California, I practically grew up in Phoenix."
Or, possibly the best one yet: "A low voter turnout is an indication of fewer people going to the polls."

What an idiot... as for his son. He seems to follow closely in his father's footsteps, if he thinks President Obama is, or will ever be, the worst president ever. He's only smart enough to how to write sex themed posts to others of his ilk...and then LIE about it. Typical Republican... sickening.

And to the repubs on here agreeing with this idiot: GW dummy Bush was and will always be the worst president foisted on America. He's actually criminally stupid...or more likely, just a criminal.

I bet you'd vote for Yogi Berra.

keepertrout:

If you would "Wikipedia" "a thousand points of light" there is a better chance the history behind the quote would be there.

Sex and Lies!!?? geesh ..sort of like Bill Clinton's - " I did not have sexual relations with that woman..." funny how all these Ivy educated presidents and vice presidents are so ignorant in the eyes of these GED quality posters. Jimmy Carter has my vote as worst president. Agnew as worst vp.

msles - I had forgotten about the "my fellow astronauts" speech. That was a good one! LOL

Grimey: Here's the one I like best: (copied from Wikipedia. I actually have this copied and in my billfold but didn't want to search for it in the black hole).

Dan Quayle:

"When you take the UNCF model that, what a waste it is to lose one's mind, or not to have a mind is being very wasteful, how true that is."

• Speech to the United Negro College Fund (9 May 1989), mangling the Fund's slogan "A mind is a terrible thing to waste."

WitchyWoman55, That was so funny! lol, lol, lol! Quayle Jr. really should have kept his mouth shut about anybody being the worst president.

He may be as dumb as some of you say, but as the old saying goes," even a broken clock is right 2 times a day". He hit the nail on the head with his comment on this fool in the white house.

Well given that the Lund Boats are probably stamped out like a penny on an automated assembly line and the yacht is major shipbuilding with a large number of custom features and high cost additions and equipment I'd put my money on the yacht. (Except that it would probably be at least a 70 foot yacht at $36 billion, or maybe a navy destroyer.

Are ya sure you didn't mean a $36 MILLION yacht and 200 $18,000 Lund boats. Your math comes to $180,000 apiece for those suckers.

I'm also thinking that if rich people could parlay $36 billion into sales of 200,000 $180,000 Lund boats, it's better to let the rich people do it either way. they would jump at the chance and probably would get the boats manufactured a lot quicker.

With the government, if it failed it would give new meaning to "bailout".

I'm just rambling and all of MY math is wrong, too.

I have to agree with El Rushbo on this one. Where do you think the $36 Billion came from? It came from taxpayers who earned it, by working hard or selling products and/or services, i.e., contributing to society. To 'spread the wealth' as liberals like to call it, goes against every American ideal that I hold dear. Look at the migration of money in this country because of tax code. California suffered bad because they overtaxed the earners to pay for the slackers, so the earners left, took the jobs they provided, the money they earned, and left the state in droves. New York is experiencing the same effect, especially in NYC. So now let's tax the evil rich on a national level, see where the money moves to next. The real problem is that government has created this notion that people aren't putting enough into the system, they're broke and need more of our money so they can give more back to us. As to evil millionaires keeping their money vs. the government writing checks for average Joe's to buy fishing boats, ask yourself this, how many boats would the average Joe buy if he wasn't shipping of 20-30% of his income to the IRS and how many jobs would be created if Joe millionaire wasn't sending in 35% of his profits. Better question is, how many jobs is Joe millionaire going to have to cut to pay for another 4.7% of his income to go the folks in Congress? The real outrage should not be directed at achievers, of which I am definitely not, but rather towards Congress for their wasteful ways. They are currently BORROWING $3,800,000,000 EVERYDAY from foreign banks, but let's have a 'Boat for Joe' giveaway to ensure that Joe casts the proper ballot come election day...and with the wastefulness in our government I doubt you could buy 200 16 ft Lund fishing boats for $36 billion, cash for clunkers cost taxpayers $24000 per $3500 check.

I think the commenter's point was that returning the money to the middle class would spur middle class spending, which would do more to warm up the economy than giving the money to billionaires who would then deposit it in foreign banks (Swiss) or offshore tax havens, or invest in companies that utilize foreign labor.

Trickle-down economic theory was debunked a long time ago. Only the truly stupid still subscribe to this. Well, them and the rich.

The well-to-do tend not to spend as much of their money. Puting it into offshore accounts and other tax shelters does not help improve the economy.

Republican politicians know for a fact that they have no viable ideas, no true leadership. That's why all they can do is try to tear down Obama. Convincing the ignorant that Obama is a socialist is a lot easier than actually trying to govern.

Thank you- I don't always ezpress myself as well as I should. That's exactly what I was trying to point out. ALso- yes, the millionaires would use some of that money to create jobs, too. In China.

Ramboet, I don't care about Quayle but you're not telling the whole story. No where in the add does it say they're his children.

And where did you find the word "stupidor"? Who is more stupid now?

"he's "more stupid" .....I think you meant to say! hmmmmmmm not too bright.

Agree bct. There are lots of posts here that are just as bad as anything Quayle said or misspelled.

Are you writing in English?

Thanks for the laugh Steven...

I love it!

Hell, I'd pay good money (the only kind, per the republicans) to paste any one of the Quayle guys! And twice that much to go into the ring with Rove, Beck, Screwbaugh, Hannity or JoAnnaSmith.

(let me call that last one back- I think she could whip me.....)

Oops just talked to my wife, it was Tucker Quayle that tried to kiss her, that her brother beat up. She actually use to beat up on Ben...

EPIC !!!!

I happen to live in Arizona, and can think of few people here (repub or Demo) who would find your inane and childish remark even remotely amusing, Mad in CT. Wanna talk about mad? Come down here and say that to anyone, and you will get your butt whipped, as it appears you hold the people of Arizona in contempt in general. (By the way, I'm registered as an independent, and have been for years)

Touchy Baggers, Birthers and Buffoons there in Arizona. If they didn't make such ignorant fools of themselves, who would the people in West Virginia have to laugh at?????

Oh get a life, Freenaz, and a sense of humor. We put up with lots of Repub sh@t on here. So get over it. Go take a thorazine, or whatever the drugster is using. Kool-aid anyone?

If you read my post you'll realize I was referring to AZ republicans. AZ Democrats are generally a smarter lot! As for visiting AZ, I do not intend to reward you morons with any of my hard-earned $$. But I will continue kicking your dumbass with my sword pen at every turn.

I should have put my comment here. That was a funny show, load of potatoes dumped at the White House.

Wasn't that the show that was a response to Quayle using Murphy Brown as an example of promoting single motherhood?

Even worse, did he spell "misstatement" wrong too?

Apparently it wasn't "sufficient" that he spelled potato wrong.

Only trouble is, you don't bother to check the truth of the anecdotes you get from the echo chamber. Gore, for example, never said anything about inventing the internet. He only said that, from the '70s on, he was aware of the potential, he took the initiative and he supported the creation of the internet, which happens to be true.

gaor:

I think you're absolutely right about that ONE!

e-o-k - Is that a reference to Aqua Buddha and the Rand Paul bong pushing kidnapping? LOL

However, I do agree: If the MSM could trivialize "news" any further, I don't know how!

But this is a break from the monotony, as usual, and pretty funny recalling the "ooopsies".

Its not but it still is fun.

Dan Qualyle had numerous examples of his "robust intellect" displayed in his public quotes. One of the commenters above listed several, they are quite funny, but terrifying coming from a VP.

He DOES! Like his dad, he can suck a golf ball through a 50 foot section of garden hose.

DBO - I so enjoy your posts. Humor will get you everything, even through this election cycle, god help us! Cause Repubs won't.

Hey Police....9.5 % unemployment is an accomplishment???? Can't wait for the Blame Bush retort!

And BTW, what the hell is "wisedom"?

Have you looked at that 'bikini' graph at all? You know, the one that shows all those job losses year after year up until 2008? OK- I won't blame Bush, but Obama wasn't in office yet. Tell me who SHOULD be blamed, then.

No retort needed. Just list Bush's record. Please, we are all itching to know what you know rebel. You tell us this, I'll tell you were Banjo's are really made.

Congress went to the Dems in 06. And I don't give a rat's @SS about banjos. Bush was an average POTUS at best, but your guy is a slimy, community organizer who is making a bad recession a depression and calling it a recovery. NOW THAT"S STUPID!!!

rebel is a sad, frustratred dude (or dudette). Just tell us hotshot what Obama has done to you?

OK rebel. You are a smart one. You would make a box of rocks proud of it's intelligence. Now that I think about it. You couldn't afford a banjo! You can just listen to the music and bob your head back and forth. Mommy will wipe that drool off your face. Republicans are just a smart bunch today. Don't give them any sharp tools to use. Might loose an eye and maybe more gray matter.

Here's a little nugget for you rebel... up until Congress went to the Dems in 06 President Bush had not vetoed one item. His first veto was Stem Cell Research. 11 more followed including Children's Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007, U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Care, Katrina Recovery, and Iraq Accountability Appropriations Act, Medicare Improvement for Patients and Providers Act of 2008, Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008.

Please refer to: http://www.senate.gov/reference/Legislation/Vetoes/BushGW.htm

Steven, thanks for sharing that link! Especially interesting are the Presidential messages explaining the reason for the veto. For example, he vetoed the farm bill because it would have provided subsidies to farmers making $1.5 million a year. It lists the unnecessary spending included in the bill and he reasons that it would have made it more difficult to provide food to poor countries.

More information enables sounder opinions. Thanks!

I'm sure it means nothing that the vetoes (hey, that pluralizes just like a potato) were the result of the Democrat congress attaching unacceptable and highly political supplementals.

Can't wait for the Blame Bush retort!

Then I won't keep you waiting, rebel...

dummy dubya, et al, took eight LONG years to drive us into the dirt...We should have at least eight years of drumming him and the GOBP into the dirt. It's his/their fault and I don't have any compunctions about laying the blame where it belongs! Maybe you don't care what the last eight years have done to you and the people you know. But what's been done to the people of the US is criminal and those with a heart do care.

It's bush's fault, period. You repubs just don't want to be reminded that you voted the dirtbag in. Too bad. We're going to complain and blame because we have EVERY right to do so...don't like it? Don't read it.

Candy: You mean like food to people in poor countries, like ours? Oh, I forgot, the poor in this country do not count. We must save up for other countries. Want to go through the thinking on the rest of the list?

Want to know why we're in a jobs hole. Go to http://articles.moneycentral.msn.com/Investing/JubaksJournal/biggest-problem-now-job-creation.aspx

There you will find out why unemployment is high and will probably remain high regardless of who the president is. It will also debunk the thought that Obama is at fault for the jobs problem. If you can stand to read the facts instead of talking points from John Boehner and Mitch McConnell go there. When you come back to First Read, then you may be able to speak about the unemployment rate intelligently. The key word is "may".

Actually, "Brak" was more latenight. I wanna say after midnight, on Adult Swim.

vacation!?... you want to talk about vacation? O has had 65 days of vacation to this point in his term. By this point in his own first term, Bush had taken 120!

I'd take 9:30am over 4 months on the ranch any day.

Sorry Dano... what year did you say you graduated Yale University and/or Harvard Business School? Thought so!

But when you go to work and get absolutely nothing done, why does it matter what time you get in? You may not like Obama but he's hella smarter than Bush and he is tryin to straighten this sh!t out that Bush left . EVERY TIME you turned round, Bush was on vacation. For what? He didn't do sh!t. Why did he need a vacation?

Ben Quayle is as useless as a train on a dirt road.

Bush 2 was not even close to the worse president, Obama won't be the worse president.

Grant was the worse (although very popular) with Buchanan just above that position as the Civil War started during his administration.

Bush 2, like Carter, Obama, Taft, Hoover, are simply good people doing a bad job, happens to the best of us.

Is he smoking potatoes, or however you spell it; ask his Dad.

yeah junior you should know about worse your daddy was the worse VP in history

So many Republicans fail to recognize that the POTUS won by greater than 7 million votes. Majority rules.
