No, but maybe continuing the failed policies of Bush and keeping people in positions of power and hiring an inept Eric Holder who has prosecuted no one and so on and so on should count for something....B/c of the importance of the times we live in, I can only say Obama is the single worst president in our history.

Here's an interactive map, from Moody Analytics, documenting the economic and recovery status of each state, and each major town with statistics

Shows the recovery is slow, but definitely doing well and improving.

Recovery Status Map - Tracking the business cycle across U.S. states and metropolitan areas.

Having food stamps use high, when unemployment is high, isn't any great surprise. It shows we're helping people and keeping them from starving. That's a good thing. Not a bad thing.

No, I just posted an ongoing detailed analysis of where a major financial outlet puts the nation regarding recession and recovery.

"Single worse President in history" - yeah, that's a logically-arrived upon conclusion. Who's on crack?

I like the way that this post implies that you actually know something about about all the other presidents and at some point you decided....yep, Obama is now worse than James Buchanan or John Tyler, or Andrew Johnson....or whichever president you had last on your list before.
You don't like the guy. Fine. But this "worst president in our history" stuff is just nonsense. You are comparing him to people that I feel confident in guessing you don't know the first thing about.
Its not just you either. There are polls like this all the time and I always think they are stupid. Does comparing the John Adams administration to the Gerald Ford administration really make any sense whatsoever? There's no reasonable way to do it....or really a very good reason to do it.

There will be a lot of silence after that post..

It takes a while to find a Washington Times editorial on John Tyler

andrew johnson was pretty bad, more recently i'd have to say carter. buchanan was a pathetic joke. then there's polk, who was suckered by santa anna in exile, helped him come back to mexico-which lead to the mexican/american war...

harrison would be difficult to rank. maybe you need a seperate list of best and worst first 30 days of a presidency. that would be the only fair way to judge his month in office against the other's.

Yeah but he wasn't president during "important times" like Obama.

Apparently you don't have a clue what I do for a living. Yes, we've had plenty of criminals who were presidents. Again, what you miss is the current importance of the time we live in.

I didn't mean to get off topic. Let's get back to that rip roaring recovery we are having. The first is tomorrow so Wal Mart will be hopping at 12:01am when the Food stamp cards get their monthly limit.

And you obviously have no idea what Miraja2 does for a living. This time period is a pimple on the ass of our past.

Too Big To Fail sucked multiple as.sholes.

Check out Inside Job. It's not perfect but at least they don't try and make you feel sorry for Paulson and company.
