Answer 1

George W. Bush is a part of a despicable lineage. His Grandfather Prescott was a major financier of the Nazi party and Adolph Hitlers war machine. He called Germany "The Home Land." Sound familiar ? For Prescott Bush, a poor man that rose to higher levels through questionable means, Money and Power was his only goal. A member of Skull & Bones. A secret society with satanic rituals, perverted sexual practices and visions for a new world. Todate, a large number of their members are in positions of power...around the globe.

George H.W. Bush was involved in counter intellegence, espionage and unethical acts when John F.Kennedy became president. His business associates and partners reached positions of power while, at times, lacking the proper qualifications. Some managed to make it into the White House, in various positions during both the Reagan and Bush presidencies irregardless of personal affiliations. Oddly enough, the vast majority of these associates can be directly linked to the assasination of John F. Kennedy (See: JFK: The Bush Connection) On 9-11, as the planes flew into the Towers in New York, he was in a meeting with members of the Ben Laden family to discuss a joint business dealing. Coincidentally, the events of that day would make trillions for their investors. Also a member of the Skull & Bones fraternity and continues to have business dealings with the Ben Laden family.

George W. Bush had worse grades in school than many people, myself included. Violated US Military policy during the Vietnam War and may very well have been AWOL at one point. After his term of service, had several failed companies that have been stated, "He ran them into the ground with his lack of judgement and skill." With the help of James R. Bath, another Texas National Guardsman, made a run for the Govenors office in Texas. James Baths helped to finance many endeavors with money from a relative of Osama Bin Laden. While Govenor, the biggest criminal act against the American people materialized through ENRON in Houston Texas. The ramifications were felt as far west as California and countless people suffered terrible losses. It just sort of went away...unexlainably. A run for President produced the most contested election in American history. As the world was notified that Al Gore would be our new President, the evil of the Bush family rose again. With every state and precinct counted and all the votes calculated, the one place in all of America that revealed a ripple in our dignity was the state where Jeb Bush was Govenor. In every senario and every conceivable recount, Al Gore had won and yet Georges brother held the cards. Never in history had something so obvious, so wrong and so criminal, been ignored. During innaugaration, the Presidential motorcaide was pelted with eggs and the will of the people became irrelevent.

Cheating his way into the Presidency wasn't enough for the Skull & cross graduate or his evil family. As head of security for the World Trade centers, Marvin Bush, had to solidify his families pact with the devil. It goes well beyond my scope of imagination as to how or why that terrible day happened...but it did happen. It is not abnormal for a President lie to the public but George W. Bush, mislead the American public into believing that the war with Iraq was necessary. That our way of life was threatened by terrorism. That the future of America rested on our capture of Osama Bin Laden and Sudam Hueissain and an end to terrorism. Allthewhile, this demonic sect was terrorising this nation as he brought ruin to another nation. He violated the constitution and told the American people that he didn't care. At this very minute, the Bush family continues to do business with the very people he has proclaimed to be enemies with America. They do this without hesitance and their enormous wealth continues to increase as they draw closer to their goal.

Hiltler had The Homeland and Bush has Homeland Security. It's odd that both men discussed a New World and a New World Order, unless you consider just how close their ties are and especially the benefactors.
Is George W. Bush the worst president in history ? It is not up to me to decide. You see, the Bible has taught me, as a Christian, not to judge. Judgement is to be left up to God Almighty and so I won't disobey God. I will say that in the book of life...when it is all over ...in the end...only one thing will remain. The Truth .

Answer 2

1) Depends on what scale you use? Troops lost? The economy? happiness? global stability? rise in population? number of barbeques sold? etc.
2) Can only judge once he leaves office so you compare on the full term. Also the impact of many policies will only be judged many years in the future with the benefit of hindsight
3) Who gets to decide, iraqis, muslims, US citizens, africans caught in preventable war?

The is a subjective question. If you want an objective answer, then it is necessary to quantify a response with evidence that can be verified.

An opinion ... there are many things he could have done better. His foreign policy has increased global terrorism and the practices of the US government in adopting policies such as extraordinary rendition have undermined global confidence and faith in the US, but it is too early to fully understand the impact of these. Domestically, interest rates are within acceptable limits, employment is again OK, and crime in many areas is falling. The proverbial roof hasn't fallen in, despite some huge challenges.

You could argue that the problems that the US has faced recently would have faced any president during this period and that his response was broadly within the predictable behaviour for any candidate as he is only one part of a wider bureaucratic system that has clear responses to certain stimuli - i.e. attack us - we attack you.

Also, don't overly credit Bush positively or negatively for policies. He has a huge group of advisors comprising some of the smartest people on the planet. Failures in policy are down to some of the smartest people in the world being wrong.

When we look back at decisions in the past - we should always beware of hindsight bias. The real issue is to ask yourself what would you have done differently at that time with that information?

Answer 3

Well he's not the best, I understand why Carter would say so, He's just trying to give someone else that title so he doesn't get it. That being said, Bush is a very,very, shitey president. The economy is stronger, but people are having a tougher time getting by. He allows his corporate buddies to get richer but allows New Orleans to go in a state of disrepair. He didn't raise taxes, but do you know anybody who isn't paying more taxes every single year? Bush Is good at one thing. He has the ability to fool himself into thinking that nothing bad is ever his fault. Seeing as how everyone else is mentioning Iraq, I won't get into that. I will mention however his stand against stem cell research.Or his "No child left behind" act, which mearly covers up the fact that children are left behind by not calling them drop outs any more.

Answer 4

Don't forget Nixon. He had Watergate, Russia, and China all working against him. President Bush is bad, yes, but nothing compared to the major criticism that Nixon and Truman both faced. Nixon attempted foreign relations but failed miserably almost every time, and Truman dropped A-bombs on Japan (Hiroshima and Nagasaki). Both presidents were succeded by far more liked presidents, and were promptly forgotten, until about ten or so years after their presidencies, when their ideals were strongly criticized. Truman seemed to favor mobs and rioting, because he stirred up anything that was anti-communist, rational or not. Nixon, on the other hand, apparently loved war. In fact he, was quoted saying that he did, raising ever more controversy. He was in office throughout many conflicts including: The Vietnam War, communist conflicts with China and the Soviet Union, the Indo-Pakistan War of 1971, and he encouraged a militaristic coup de etat of Chile in 1973. Looking back, although we seem to feel that our current president is not doing the greatest job, there were many more who were far worse. I go with a tie between Richard M. Nixon and Harry S. Truman.

Answer 5

He is the worst, I don't think any other Presidents have deliberately committed evil acts, none of them ever deliberately started a war just out of pure personal spite, I don't think any have ever mismanaged the economy as recklessly and irresponsibly. This society is seriously screwed up if an incompetent with a record of incompetence like Bush's could even get a nomination let alone win. Oh wait that was the supreme ct. I do not think the country will ever recover from this presidency, Bush did too much damage, it is doomed.

Answer 6

he is definitely the worst, with reagan running a close second and nixon a close third.

bush is the only president that lied in order to take America to war in a foreign land.

When Clinton lied, nobody died.

Since bush lied, thousands have died.

reagan was a close runner up because the whole time he was in office he denied there was such a disease as AIDS, and thus, no dollars were appropriated, in his budget, for research, care, nor prevention, and because of him thousands of Americans died a needless painful death.

nixon was second runner-up because he was the crook that orchestrated the break-in of the Watergate Hotel where the Democratic Headquarters were located, just so he could spy in their files.

At least he had the guts to resign in disgrace when he knew he should, unlike the worst president mentioned above.

Answer 7

No.

Clinton----didn't accomplish nothing of significance in 8 years. Was impeached.

Carter----Had the Iran rescue fiasco. Middle East problems. Gas lines (at least we don't have gas lines under Bush). Double digit inflation and unemployment.

Hoover---sat around and let the Depression start without trying to do anything to stop it or relieve the suffering of the people.

Andrew Johnson---sat around and let Congress punish the South excessively after the Civil War.

Bush has made mistakes. Most Presidents who try to do something usually do. But to call him the worst is unjustified. History will judge Bush, just like it did the Presidents I listed.

Answer 8

Hmmm, look I dont like the man one bit, and I dont know American history but it sounds like if Abe takes the cake. I thought he was a hero? Isnt he on the US money?

George definately ranks in my top 3 presidents around the world that I dislike. Number one goes to Robert Mugabe though, the 7th richest man in the world! Congrats to him for all his hard work and labour... Zimbabwe is now bartering because it costs more to catch a taxi than the amount the people get paid for working during a day...(The inflation rate is well over a 1000%) Who say crimes against humanity dont pay?

The world will sit and watch....

God Bless!

Answer 9

No. Most people will just base their opinions off or Iraq. However, the economy is better than ever. Employment is the lowest its been in a long time. I don't think he's the worst President ever, but Iraq will be his legacy. Too bad the politicians, on both sides, messed it up.

Answer 10

Nope, he's one of the better ones. My vote for the worst would go to Nixon, with Clinton right behind. They were both proven liars and law breakers while being in office. Yeah, I know that you're going to say that all politicians lie. But lieing under oath is one of our most serious crimes. To be a suspected liar is quite different from being a proven liar.
