Forget the fact that he’s a military deserter and a crappy businessman.
He’s capped all of that by being hands down the worst president in U.S.
history.

I thought it was Jackson. Didn’t he start the “to the victor go the spoils”
politics in the US?

Well, let’s see...
- Jackson didn’t resort to legal action to get himself installed as president against the will of the people.
- Jackson didn’t spend $100M on ineffective negative campaigning against his opponent instead of actually talking about his own record in office.
- Jackson didn’t pretend to be “pro-life” after presiding over hundreds of executions, only to then start an unnecessary war for oil that has cost tens of thousands of lives.
- Jackson didn’t take this country from a position of respect and sympathy to a position of worldwide distrust and hatred in one year’s time.
- Jackson didn’t wipe out the country’s budget surplus and run up record deficits during his tenure.
- Jackson didn’t go on vacation for the entire month before the worst terrorist attack on US soil.
- Jackson didn’t fabricate reasons to violate international law simply because he didn’t trust the people to understand (or agree with) his true reasons.
Nope, it looks like the distinction (comic book guy voice) “Worst President
Ever” has been handed off to the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
- Chris.
