When oh when does it start to get better and stay better in America?

4. Ford and Nixon were smarter than these bozos.

(Yeah, even Gerry Ford.)

[MichiganVote]

6. In terms of corruption, Ford was definetly outclassed by the Nixonian

bunch that have resurfaced these last years with Bush.

[charlie]

10. Ford gave those idiots Rumsfeld and Cheney

Oval Office jobs, though. The retread miscreants plaguing us are as much Ford's as they are Nixon's and Reagan's.

7. Nixon was a bastard but at least he wasn't an idiot

If you ignore Nixon's political manipulation of the war, resulting in the deaths of tens of thousands, and the paranoid delusion resulting in the enemies list and Watergate, he was a pretty good president.

8. Let's go back and...

get it right this time.
Like many here, I was there - and we blew it.
This time, let's get it right.
No more reagans, no more bushes.
Never again.

[Lefty48197]

9. Economically, this country hasn't made any progress since 1910

We've had some progress in civil rights, but that's about it.
