GRRRRR stupid freepspam on my local ISPs Message Board.
This crap was on my ISP's message board

Worst president in history?


(The following appeared in the Durham, NC local paper as a letter to the editor.
Please forward to all on your list as this will put things in perspective:)

Liberals claim President Bush shouldn't have started this war.
They complain about his prosecution of it.
One liberal recently claimed Bush was the worst president in U.S. history.

Let's clear up one point: President Bush didn't start the war on terror.
Try to remember, it was started by terrorists BEFORE 9/11.
Let's look at the "worst" president and mismanagement claims.

FDR led us into World War II.
Germany never attacked us: Japan did.
>From 1941-1945, 450,000 lives were lost,
an average of 112,500 per year.

Truman finished that war and started one in Korea.
North Korea never attacked us.
>From 1950-1953, 55,000 lives were lost,
an average of 18,333 per year.

John F. Kennedy started the Vietnam conflict in 1962.
Vietnam never attacked us.
Johnson turned Vietnam into a quagmire.
>From 1965-1975, 58,000 lives were lost,
an averag! e of 5,800 per year.

Clinton went to war in Bosnia without UN or French consent.
Bosnia never attacked us.
He was offered Osama bin Laden's head on a platter three times by Sudan and did nothing.
Osama has attacked us on multiple occasions.
Over 2,900 lives lost on 9/11.

In the two years since terrorists attacked us,
President Bush has liberated two countries,
rushed the Taliban, crippled al-Qaida,
put nuclear inspectors in Lybia, Iran and North Korea without firing a shot, captured a terrorist who slaughtered 300,000 of his own people.
We lost 600 soldiers, an average of 300 a year.
Bush did all this abroad while not allowing another terrorist attack at home.

Worst president in history? Come on!

The Democrats are complaining about how long the war is taking, but...

It took less time to take Iraq
than it took Janet Reno to take the Branch Davidian compound.
That was a 51 day operation.

We've been looking for evidence of chemical weapons in Iraq for less time
than it took Hillary Clinton to find the Rose Law Firm billing records.

It took less time for the 3rd Infantry Division and the Marines to destroy the Medina Republican Guard
than it took Teddy Kennedy to call the police after his Oldsmobile sank at Chappaquiddick.

It took less time to take Iraq
than it took to count the votes in Florida!!!!

Our military is GREAT! PASS IT ON.


I let this person know that Bush did a great job with Clinton's military. Thank you, Al Franken!

1. All you need say is that this person didn't consider Nazis worth fighting
Saddam, yes, but not Nazis.

3. When did we "take" Iraq?
It took less time to take Iraq
than it took Janet Reno to take the Branch Davidian compound.
That was a 51 day operation.


I think this guy is out of his mind if he thinks Iraq was "taken" in less than 51 days. He'll, we still haven't taken it.

7. Yes they did
But to the freeptards, the sky is green, water is not wet, the moon is made from green cheese, the Pope is a Baptist and Clinton is responsible for everything that's gone wrong in America since Bush moved into the White House.

9. What's this about Ted Kennedy?
Good lord the right-wing is full of dumb shits.

If we "liberated" Afghanistan, how come some warlords control cities with Taliban-style rule?

If we "liberated" Iraq, how come they keep killing us there?

George W. Bush couldn't find his ass with a flashlight and a mirror.
