Some good ones here and there (Truman for instance) but a lot of yuck. And with the current state of the Senate, I would say we will keep getting yuck drawing from there.

Nah, Presidential trivia has always been a favorite of mine. If I ever get on Jeopardy I won't have to waste time studying that and instead I can focus on foods that start with the letter "Q".Ivytalk wrote:You love that Wikipedia, don't you, Ganny?GannonFan wrote:

By the time he's elected President, Rubio will have been a senator for almost twice as long as Obama was.Ivytalk wrote:What is it about first-term Senators who think they should be President? Even Jack Kennedy was in his second Senate term when he ran -- and he also had 3 House terms under his belt.SDHornet wrote: Yup. He just needs to follow the Obama ’08 playbook. Rally Team Brown, make some off the mark unrealistic statements that the voters will eat up and start laying the ground work for the race card and have operatives to bludgeon any opposing viewpoints with “racist” accusations. I like where this is going.
Team black had their shot at the WH and failed spectacularly. Leave it to Team Brown to come in and clean up the mess. It’s what we do. Team Brown 2016 bitches.![]()

Its just a different kind of incompetence
I agree Obama is incompetent in many regards - but "more incompetent" than the previous president???
That's a bit of a stretch
Suffice to say: We've hit new lows in a whole bunch of areas the last decade

That fvcking loser just had to cancel a speech in Switzerland out of fear of being arrested as a war criminal, Rumsfeld has turned on him, and Cheney is laughing all the way to the bank. No, I'm afraid that all the others are competing for a distant second place...
