Has there ever been a more hated person than bush*

[madokie]

Amazing that the pukes put this POS up after Clinton. But then again the same "pukes" tried every trick in the books to discredit Clinton to drive people to hate him and in spite of them he is still loved through out the world... Saying this knowing full well no one can satisfy every one all the time.

[wildhorses]

1. Hitler...maybe

:shrug:

[pepperlove]

5. Practically

one in the same.

[yellowcanine]

2. "Go fuck yourself" Chaney has my vote.

[marmar]

8. I definitely despise Cheney more than Bush...

Bush is an asshole and a troglodyte, Cheney is a truly twisted, evil organism.

[I Have A Dream]

29. I also believe that Cheney is truly evil incarnate. n/t

[Wapsie B]

3. I was going to say Clinton.

I believe part of the reason we see so many w stickers on cars even now is due to the righties deep-seated hatred of Clinton and the Left in this country. I have to wonder sometimes what would happen if we were actually successful in removing the chimp from office and turning him over to the Hague. I could see blood in the streets.

[RaleighNCDUer]

13. Thing is, they don't really hate Clinton or the left --

they hate the idea of Clinton - a successful democrat - and they don't know what the 'left' means. They are willing fascists who want to follow a leader who will take care of them. They want simple, and permanent, answers to complex questions because they are intellectually lazy and are afraid of where following real lines of reasoning might take them.

And, yes, they will take to the streets to defend their right to ignorance.

[Caution]

17. I dunno. I know far too many people who reallly HATE Clinton.

[I Have A Dream]

30. However, the rest of the WORLD doesn't hate Clinton. n/t

[TallahasseeGrannie]

4. I really don't know about US history

but not in my lifetime have I ever seen any president so despised by so many. Even Nixon. We were TIRED of Nixon but we didn't hate him. It seems there is little middle ground. He is hated or adored.

I have never heard anyone who dislikes him stick to politics: it is always made personal. This guy just strikes a wrong chord in a whole lot of folks.

Now I don't think we can yet compare the hatred to the really, really bad guys out there: Hitler, Pol Pot, Stalin, etc.

Although I think I ought to at least step into a flame suit because I am well aware there are folks here who absolutely WOULD put him in that category. I am not quite there, yet. And I hope he isn't allowed to get that far.

[RaleighNCDUer]

15. When he gets around to nuking Tehran, then he'll be there.

Till then he's just a wannabe.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

22. I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE

Anyone who uses nukes with what we know now...they JOIN THE BAD GUY CLUB

in hell

[lutefisk]

19. Sad, but now I can relate to how people felt about Hitler...

I can't believe it happened so fast, but I can relate to the deep, deep, feelings people must have felt (and still feel) when a Hitler or a Stalin controlled their countries. Bush hasn't "accomplished" what some of the other hated men before him have, yet. And the Right's sophisticated public relations machine will continue to fool many in this country.

But, the Bush administration is truly radical and relentlessly malicious and dishonest. They have put things in motion that will, I feel in time, have much more deadly and harmful effects to our world than what anyone has done before them. I already know I can never forgive them.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

23. I hope and pray you are wrong

but I'm not betting any money on it.

Courage! There is hope.

[I Have A Dream]

31. I don't think that he's there yet either. However...

I think that he has it in him.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

35. I'm not sure about that

I personally think he will get bored. I don't think he has the passion to carry out truly enormous evil on the holocaust scale.

Poor guy...even failing at being one of the really bad guys.

[I Have A Dream]

39. You have a point there. Cheney has it in HIM though! n/t

[willing dwarf]

6. I was thinking of Caligula...

but he at least had a horse. W. can't even get a pny to ride...

[Squatch]

7. Lucifer?

[Poll_Blind]

9. I think GWB is the most-hated person currently living.

That Kim Il Jung is an ass, too, but at least there are no pretenses about him being a dictator.

PB

[leveymg]

10. Globally? Probably more hate Bush today than hated Hitler then.

Simply because of population growth. Gee, what a guy - Shrub really is a world class, historical figure!

[willing dwarf]

11. Americans will be the bad guys in movies

for a long time to come, thanks to W.

Watching Indianna Jones the other night with a German friend, she observed that Germans are always the bad guys in American films.

After Bush, that's gonna change. We'll be hanging our heads then, even though we never elected him.

[leveymg]

20. A lot more things made in America will likely be produced abroad.

And, that includes movies. The Brits can tell us a lot about what to expect.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

24. And not to mention

Hitler was well-loved in his own nation. For a while.

[leveymg]

25. "Only Those Who Truly Hate America, Still Love Bush"

That's what my sign will say on Saturday.

[madokie]

27. Pretty much says it all, No truer words ever written

[Mike Daniels]

12. Any Soviet Bloc - Communist Leader, Pol-Pot, Stalin, Hitler,

Lenin, any number of czars, Napoleon, Nero, Caligula, etc...

I can think of any infinite number of people that were probably hated more during their time than Bush is at this time.

[leftofthedial]

not at my house

[lse7581011]

14. Not In My Opinion n/t

[Burma Jones]

16. At this moment, probably not - Historically you would have to include

Hitler
Tojo
Amin
Pol Pot
Stalin
Mao
Napoleon
Nixon
Alexander the Great
Any number of Caesars
Oliver Cromwell


Good Guys that generated a lot of hate:
Lincoln
FDR
Gandhi
Dr. King

[kcwayne]

18. Abraham Lincoln

He was despised by Southerners, and there are still people in the South who hate him. He was also hated by Southern sympathizers and those who hated the idea of freeing the slaves.

Having said that, times were much different then. The POS was not an integral part of peoples lives, and was rarely in the thoughts of most people. The federal government just did not play as large a role in day to day living then. It is hard to contrast the intensity of the hatreds then to now.

[Balbus]

44. I agree with this one.

At the time Abe Lincoln was probably more despised.

[Yupster]

45. Funny too that cartoonists

drew him as a chimp.

[jmatthan]

21. What gets me is why so many Americans are so so ready

to be led into the gas chamber?

[madokie]

26. And that my friend is what scares me.

[I Have A Dream]

28. Hitler. n/t

[cascadiance]

40. Hitler's starting to grin in his grave I think!

[tx_dem41]

32. Does anyone here ever get tired of HATING?

And reading about people hating? Just asking.

[wildhorses]

33. yes, I do....

but, I am new here and am trying to fit in...:scared:

[tx_dem41]

34. The best advice I can give you is....

...don't feel like you have to fit in, and by all means do NOT get consumed by hatred. Its destructive to YOU and its ultimately destructive to your personal political goals.

If you see something you think is wrong or goes against your ideals do not hesitate to speak up. If you see hypocrisy, speak up! This isn't a popularity contest.

Its nice to meet you by the way. Welcome to DU!

:toast:

[pepperlove]

37. Good advice

excet when you DO take YOUR stand, it best agree with others or down ya go.

[tx_dem41]

38. Not true in my experience.

I have disagreed with the CW around here a lot and spoken up. I'm still here.

[wildhorses]

42. thanks for the advice

and nice to meet you too:toast:

[pepperlove]

36. Same here

but it does get disgusting finding so much hate among our fellow Democrats.

[slackmaster]

41. Caligula, Hitler, Stalin, Ivan the Terrible, Vald the Impaler, J.W. Gacy

To name a few.

[maine_raptor]

43. I really don't hate Bush, Honest

It is just that I would not go out of my way to piss on him if he was on fire. He's just not worth my time.
