Reagan - A++ 

Clinton - B-
GHW Bush C+
GW Bush D-
Nixon - D-

Johnson - F--
Carter - F----

Ford - Incomplete

Why the yellow avatar? Huh

Reagan won the cold war (along with Thatcher, The Pope, Kohl, Walesa, etc)

Hundreds of millions of humans who used to live in dictatorships of various kinds transitioned in greater and lesser degrees) to freedom.

Look back to 1980 and list all the democracies that existed, I bet you can't get much past 30 nations..

List them off today...

The difference between the two lists is why Reagan is A++

The rise of democracy worldwide happenned despite Reagan, who unethically and illegally propped up many of the world most undemocratic regimes.

Reagan didn't win anything. He bankrupted the country with massive deficits funding a pointless military buildup to enrich his friends in the military-industrial complex.

I don't see how any true libertarian could possibly rank Reagan's trainwreck of a presidency as "A++".

The 1990's were great, in spite of Bill Clinton.  I used to think highly of Mr. Clinton, but looking back at his administration...he didn't accomplish anything. It seems that after the Heath Care failure he decided not to be "bold" about anything. Bill Clinton did nothing for Democrats. They lost majorities in both houses. Due to his centrists policies, he pissed off the liberal base so much, that it gave rise to Ralph Nader's run in 2000. From 1995-2001 he was basically a Republican, even though the GOP Congress was always out to get him. Impeachment over a blowjob? Give me a F***ing break!

Bill Clinton did a lot of harm to this country looking back. NAFTA, Telecommunications Act, Welfare Reform, Repeal of Glass-Steagal, ect, ect, ect.

Clinton only looks wonderful now because of who followed him and the disaster that was. That being said, I do miss him a little bit.

I've listed alot of other reasons that should have been taken into account. By admitting to the affair Clinton knew he was saving his presidency. That made it look like the GOP was only barging into his personal life. Had he kept his mouth shut I think that there would've been a different outcome.

Tell me, was he disbarred in Arkansas because of a blow? no. He was disbarred because he submitted false testimony to a judge who he appointed and new (and thus who conveniently didn't reveal it till after the Impeachement mess was over) had it come out, there would have been three counts not two in the impeachment proceedings.

He was saved because people don't know the constitution and as such Senate Democrats got away with not following it. The charge was perjury and he was guilty as hell and should have been kicked out of office. It is a testament to the Clinton's strong media team and his good relations with them, that he survived. A Republican would have been DOA.

I miss Gerald Ford. Bubba had the "advantage" of being leashed most of the time by a parsimonious Congress - something our current POTUS desperately needs. Hopefully "help" is on the way!  

Clinton had a completely different type of economy than we do now.  Obama and a Republican Congress would get nothing done.

No, but to be honest, I am starting to miss Dubya.  I was very glad to see him go and bring in "change", but this guy is not the change we need.  Clinton was better than Obama.  I am really starting to switch my allegiance back to the right.  Here's the main reason I'm missing Dubya.  He wasn't afraid to pray in public and was very candid about his faith.  Obama said the discussion of abortion was "above his pay grade" and couldn't even honor our troops on Memorial Day.  Plus, even though Bush bungled the Katrina response, he responded to Katrina better than Obama is responding to the oil spill.  Obama failed to lift the Jones act and allow aid to come in within 3 days after the explosion.  Obama is really starting to disappoint me.  Again, I voted for this guy, but he has lost my vote in 2012.

Now, back to the question on hand, I miss George W. Bush more than I do William Jefferson Clinton.

And because a majority of voters are like you....this country is f**ked.

I don't want to know why that kid has his shirt off. I always knew Clinton was strange and your picture says it all. And the only thing I miss about Clinton is talk radio talking about him everyday.

Whatever the whole Reagan administration was guilty over Iran Contra and nothing happened, and the only reason the whole Bush Administration wasnt facing congressional investigation was because there wasnt an independant counsel to expose there crimes. Nobody died when Clinton lied.

That's Carlos Bocanegra, captain of the US team!  That was in the locker room after they had just beaten Algeria to get to the round of 16 in the World Cup.



He knows how to party?  Ha.....Fezzy, Torie and I can't stand the prick because he won't inhale.  Tongue

True dat, what a tool.  I'd rather chill with Bocanegra.
