On the Claim by Some Folks that Obama is the Worst President in U.S. History

The dude obviously isn't (Andrew Johnson, Millard Fillmore, Woodrow Wilson, Herbert Hoover, and Richard Nixon were all exceedingly worse). But in the words of one of my favorite historians, Ralph Raico, "He's the only one that we have (meaning of course that we need to keep an eye on him like we did - or should have done - with of his predecessors)."

Not the same thing, but similar in level of hyperbole is the claim that we hear every two friggin' years that "this is the most important election in history"

Now that you mention it, they do seem to say it a lot.......And check out Raico, btw (the dude takes even fewer prisoners than me!).

Hmm, in the bottom 10? Don't forget U.S. Grant.

The dude's second term most especially.

The past year has not been kind to Obama...most of it their own making.

Its pretty obvious he's never had any management experience...IMO he tolerates too many poor performers around him and accepts incompetent job performance.

......another jolt for the administration....Joe Biden's son was kicked out of the Navy....for cocaine use.....

I have Obama in the bottom half of U.S. Presidents, Russ (right along with Bush 2). I do, however, want to wait a while before I set it in granite.

Well in Jan.2015 he will become a true lame duck president. I'm sure he will try to use executive orders to the max and fund raise and play as much golf as possible.

I just hope some radical muslim's don't blow a bunch of stuff up and Iran doesn't get the bomb.

And how precisely does this affect the administration exactly? Other than Joe...
