Boehner Says He Plans to Sue Obama

[HipKat]

I'll ask again,,

Can any of you remember a presidency in your lifetime with so many controversies? OR is that other administrations had as many we just did not know about them.

Nixon... Watergate

Ford...pardoning Nixon

With Carter,, I can remember the failed Iran hostage rescue,

Reagan,, Iran Contra,

Clinton...Monica, perjury

Bush x 2 Iraq war WMD.

Obama.. I don't have that much time to type them.

Also I would like someone especially Pundit to tell me why political historians regard Reagan as one of the Best presidents since Kennedy?

Reagan was terrible. The BEST thing he did was use his charisma to make the country think we were doing good

People like Reagan because they like Reagan. He was an abomination as a President, destroyed the Middle Class and is the root cause of a downright treasonous Republican ideology, but he seemed grandfatherly.

What I gather from your list here is that being President seems to be a very difficult job, and being the chief executive of a big and wealthy country with a massive bureaucracy is extremely difficult. I also learn that people are imperfect and things don't always turn out the way they hope or expect.

downright treasonous Republican ideology

Please elaborate. ..

Allowing illegals to invade the country isn't treason?

[HipKat]

Reagan granted amnesty to millions of illegals, Junior. Plus bankrupted us in his arms race with the Soviets. Plus lied about arms for hostages. Plus Contragate. Plus deregulated the trucking industry, crippling thousands of independent owner/operators and allowing monopolies, like Swift, Schneider, JB Hunt, etc to basically take control of freight rates. Plus deregulated banking, which led to the housing crash of 2008.

Need I REALLY go on?

Of course the job is difficult...it's probably even harder when you don't have the requisite experience, and have not accomplished anything. Hardly the job to cut your teeth on.. but hey that's democracy.

On Reagan, it is important to note that political historians rank him very high. On Obama.. more recent polls put him as low as Bush now, on Reddit a college poll that I cannot remember ranked him the lowest in 70 years.

I'll take Reagan over Obama any day of the week.

Woodrow Wilson is ultimately responsible for the bankruptcy of the US. between the Federal Reserve Act and the income tax = game over for the US

I would have to agree there,, most people have no idea that the US was sold out to a small group of elite bankers years ago.
It is even unconstitutional. But the Rothchild's et al. will get theirs

when and if the dollar collapses because all those IOU's will be worthless.

At the cost of our economy

[steven]

The arms race is what hurt our economy, are you suggesting we should have let the USSR win that one? Hows your Russian language skills?

[HipKat]

Oh please. Russia was never going to attack us
