Can you remember a presidency with more disasters (natural and manmade)?
- 9/11
- Space Shuttle Columbia
- Six hurricanes making U.S. landfall
- The Iraq war
- The Asian tsunami

I'm sure there's more. Can anyone remember a more disastrous (literally) presidency ever?

4. Until * got in office I never knew who my congress critter or senator
was let alone write letters. Now I know who most of the senators are and a lot of the reps. Before * I never wrote letters or made phone calls. I have - at least until the invasion. Before * I had a career in computer programming and hope for the future. They're both gone now.

8. nope, Bushler is the worst ever, by a longshot
It'll probably result in the complete destruction of the country as we know it, and furthermore a military dictatorship.

11. Anthrax to Dems
postal workers and killed Bob Stevens of the National Enquirer. Please don't think i'm crazy, but does anyone remember when Cheney said " Alot of people are going to die" I don't remember what that was in reference to, but i always think of it when something horrible happens.

12. there's still no name for this decade yet
we're halfway through and there's no name for it.

One thing for sure, it's going to be seen as a sucky decade.

14. The Decade of Disaster seems like the only logical choice.
But on the other hand, logic rarely seems to play a part much in this decade.

It'll probably end up being named "The Decade of Enduring Freedom" or some such bullshit.

13. His Presidency is a Disaster
9/11 was definitely a disaster

The 9/11 Commission, that was a disaster too

Axing Able Danger, also a Disaster

Appointing John Bolton was a Disaster

The IQ of the Average American is also a disaster. Shame on them for believing the RW about Social Security 'reform' and the Crybaby Option.
