This is freaking DISGUSTING....

Is that George "Dead or Alive" Bush of whom you speak? Ask Osama bin Laden who is more qualified.

You have got to be kidding. Do you honestly think Obama is the reason our military/intelligence complex got Bin Laden? C'mon man.

George W. Bush was the Governor of a the second most populated State before he was President and by all accounts was very successful in the job of being Governor. He held other executive jobs prior to that as well. By any reasonable standard he was WAY more qualified than Obama was to be Chief Executive of the Executive Branch of Government than Obama was. Obama had absolutely NO executive experience prior to becoming President.

I mean think about Obama's background and his previous experience. He has no business being in this position. He's totally unqualified and he's got a totally wrong world view. It's absolutely ridiculous that this guy is President of the United States and if it wasn't so serious that we've got a totally unqualified person in that position it would be funny.

Translation: He not white.

W was the worst president we ever had. Ever. Seriously, William Henry Harrison was 1000x better.

That can't be true because all you have to do is go to the next guy to find a worse one. What Obama is facilitating is going to do way more long term damage to the United States than anything Bush did.

I also do not think Obama has had to deal with as difficult a set of circumstances as Bush did. People say what happened in 2008 was the worst economy since the Great Depression but I think that's total nonsense. I was alive in my young adult years in the late 70s and it was a LOT worse. I guess it depends on what parameters you're looking at but saying what Obama inherited was worse than what things were like then is absurd.

Obama didn't have to decide what to do in response to the 9/11 attacks. Obama did not have to deal with the Katrina aftermath. And, no, the Sandy aftermath is not as bad. It's not the same crisis level and not as difficult a situation to deal with. Nowhere close. Katrina remains the worst natural disaster in this country's history by far. They weren't just dealing with people having their houses ruined and being uncomfortable for a while. They were having to quickly rescue tens of thousands of people from imminent risk of death, stranded without food or drinkable water on rooftops and such, while the media was focusing on a relatively small number of people in the Superdome area who had it relatively good compared to a lot of others. There was a time crunch such that thousands of people were going to die of thirst and/or exposure if they didn't get to them. Much more urgency, much more of an emergency aspect, much more difficult to deal with.

You can apologize for Dubya's miserable failure during Katrina all you want to, John, but his pitifully inadequate response is a matter of historical record. Played out live in front of the entire nation.

George W Bush screwed up everything his daddy ever bought for him, from the baseball team to the Presidency.Worst President Ever, and it ain't even close.
