Mitt Romney is officially the worst candidate in history of politics

[cheguevara]

Imagine this dream scenario for a presidential challenger:

-a US Ambassador is Killed weeks before the election

-it is obvious faulty security at the embassy. someone ed up bigtime

-State Department fumbles the entire incident bigtime

-President also looks indecisive and not strong at all. has ty speeches on it and attends The View instead of UN meetings

-The President/State Dep/Government don't even have the balls to call it a terrorist attack until weeks after

-As days go by and details of the security hole and government fumbling come out, it actually was worse than it is

-The Government forgets there was a crime scene to investigate and is reminded of it by a CNN reporter finding the Ambassador's diary in the ruins of the embassy

-The Secretary of State's spokesperson tells a journalist to go himself for asking too many questions



and now imagine this:
- the challenger actually loses popularity during the above

this is legendary failure

What's also interesting is that all of those things, had it been Bush; it would be all over TV criticizing the sob for it and just absolutely getting hammered by the press like he was on Katrina, and VERY deservedly so btw...but since it's Obama.."shhh...everyone keep quiet"

[baseline bum]

I love the "the media hated Bush meme" even though they constantly beat the drum to his war in Iraq in 2003.

The absence of media anger at this pathetic performance by Obama, the govmt and the State Department is way too evident. I never believed in media bias vs. one of the major parties, but here is living proof unfortunately.

well that and the fact that Romney is one stupid mother er

and LOL Ryan. really? the only person more disliked than Ryan in america is probably trevor martin's shooter

apples to oranges. the drums of war were being financed by the corps and the military complex

The spineless media did beat the drum for war and never grilled him over it the same way they don't on Obama. But they also always ran segment after segment about his bad Presidency, and that was all warranted of course. Remember, Obama ran on ending Bush's illegal wars. But what do you know, about 800 more murdered civilians including children later, it's all good. You missed the point, again.

6000 soldiers were murdered by the Bush admin. Big difference.

[ElNono]

Dunno about worst ever... Kerry was pretty bad too...

And Barry continues the war, as well as drone strikes at a tremendous rate far surpassing Bush. Mr. "I will end all these unnecessary wars"

Good thread

Maybe you should start one about most disappointing presidents in US history

[Latarian Milton]

obama is proven a gigantic fail but the country is more than likely to welcome a 2nd term of him unfortunately. the kenyan nig has made stupid speeches and promises that he never lives up to, but the mormon candidate will still manage to lose the race by being even tier. the s, i mean both of them have made even bush look decent tbh

[hater]

well look at the behemoths Romney had to take down on his way to the nomination:

a black pizza man

one crazy eye

a guy with a sleeping disorder and brokeback jacket

a chinaman

a guy who sees a jihadist hiding in every corner

cartman from south park

[mingus]

John Kerry was worse IMO.

[cheguevara]

Romey was actually less popular than a guy who fell asleep midway through the debates

[boutons_deux]

John Kerry was worse IMO.

dubya need Perry's swift-boat slander and stealing OH by the Repug secy of state to win, and then only by the slimmest margin of any winning in bent.

Shows how ty war criminals dubya/ head were, and remain. Iraq and Afganistan are blood on their hands, not Barry's.

[cheguevara]

great question. Obama just edged W. why? not because Obama is a worse president than dubya.

as president Obama was about 10 times better than Bush. But the expectations for Obama were about 1000 times higher. So when you compute all of that you come out that Obama was a lot more dissapointing than the dumb texan

[boutons_deux]

"But the expectations for Obama were about 1000 times higher"

So the "expectors" were wrong, not Obama. And the expectors were primed to expect too much by the horrors of 8 years of Repug misgovernance and crimes.

It's more a reflection on how ing stupid the general population is rather than the candidate. Just look at this forum for examples.

[coyotes_geek]

Kerry was awful, but che makes a pretty compelling case. Bush had low unemployment and the good-times part of the real estate bubble working in his favor. Obama doesn't, yet Romney still can't capitalize.

[boutons_deux]

"Bush had low unemployment"

dubya's 1% economy had the lowest 8-year job creation record since WWII, and flat household income

nobody has said yet how Obama should have fully recovered employment during Banksters Great Depression, nor now how Gecko/Ryan's austerity or any of their policies would recover employment.

I thought you were voting Gary Johnson to send the GOP a message about their candidate?

Pointing fingers to everyone else is a cop-put I expect Yoni to use, tbh...

Sup El?

just got back from visiting the fam in argieland a week ago, and now catching up with work and the videogame barrage goodness... borderlands 2, FIFA 13 and soon 2K13... add in NBA season starting soon and it's good times, IMO.

sup with you?
