Biden more popular than Trump.

[Into the Night]

I couldn't care less what "historians" consider "greatest". It solely depends on their particular bias.

But here's my unbiased ranking of presidents in my lifetime:

The best:
1. Clinton. He managed to raise taxes while cutting spending with a democratic congress. Unheard of. Negtive: A real scalawag but I'll forgive him for that. Didn't affect his job. Plus who could blame him married to HRC?
2 Reagan. Unparalleled leadership.
3. Ford. Steady hand after Watergate. Worked with democrats congenially.

Unranked:
JFK. 3 years not enough, Bay of Pigs (negative), steered us through Cuban Missile Crisis (great).
Biden. Too soon. He could well pull himself out of the hole he dug for himself, but too soon. So far, not good with his stupid woke BS and War on Energy.

Mediocre:
Bush I. He was just kinda there. Good - leadership in the Gulf military action freeing Kuwait. Bad - his advocacy of globalization, New World Order and Agenda 21.

The worst, with the worst ranked #1:

1. Johnson. Lied us into Vietnam (Gulf of Tonkin "incident") His saving grace - he didn't run for re-election. Should have been tried at The Hague as a war criminal and shot.
2. Bush II. Lied us into Iraq. Then gloated and trivialized it. What a dick. Should have been tried at The Hague as a war criminal and shot.
3. - 6. tied Nixon - foreign policy genius was good, Watergate, expansion of Vietnam War, bad.
Obama - militarized the EPA and used federal agencies to circumvent Congress to make "laws" which he called rules.
Trump - exceptionally bad personality, couldn't control his mouth or texting, disorganized, couldn't maintain cabinet positions.
Carter - exceptionally poor leadership, horrible foreign and domestic policies. Examples: Allowed foreign fishermen to wipe out the bluefish population off Florida coast, allowed Cuban prisoners asylum into the U.S., to name two.

Clinton didn't cut spending.
Don't forget that JFK launched NASA to the Moon in his great speech on that subject.
Also don't forget Carter's price controls on gasoline, resulting in long gas lines.

How so? I gave my reasons for my rankings. You don't seem to disagree with them. How could you? It's all true.

Mostly true. One error of note: Clinton did not cut spending.

 

[Into the Night]

Because you don’t accept facts

Then are not facts. Learn what 'fact' means. It does NOT mean 'Universal Truth'. Redefinition fallacy.

Because you watch fox

FOX news wasn't around for most of the Presidents he listed, dumbass.

Because you hate America

Where has he demonstrated that??????!? You are hallucinating.

 

[evince]

If you embrace lies about this nation over known facts you hate this nation

 

[Into the Night]

Yet you don't dispute my reasons which are based on facts.

He doesn't know what the word 'fact' means. I suppose you could try explaining it, but because he doesn't know English it will be very difficult. All he knows is Liberal.

I don't think I get Fox. We stream sports mostly. College football season starts this weekend.

I haven't watched FOX News for over three decades now.

Mostly American shithole cities. My least favorite in this order:

1. New Orleans. Total anarchy now. The mayor shows up in court to support a convicted violent criminal, ignoring the victim in same court. Otherwise law abiding citizens don't even stop at red lights anymore for fear of being carjacked.
2. Downtown Atlanta. You can't even get out of your taxi without being accosted by some homeless freak. Can't walk outside your hotel more than 20 feet with being accosted. That was 18 yrs. ago. Heard it's worse now.
3. Portland, OR. Total freak show. About 18 years ago. Heard it's worse now.
4. L.A. - Worst and most inconsiderate drivers anywhere in the world.
5. Downtown Seattle. Similar to Portland, a freak show. Even friends of ours from the area don't go there anymore. Too dangerous, all boarded up.

Favorites:
Bellingham, WA How even democrats can keep a city safe and clean.
Kona, HI Same as above
Boise, ID
Fort Myers, FL
Anchorage, AK The woke city council is trying very hard to fuck up this place with it's natural beauty but at least we have a good mayor.

I just stay out of those shitholes you wallow in.

A pretty good list. I would modify your shithole cities slightly, putting above New Orleans:

1. L.A. - Open looting. Carjacking. Gangs roaming everywhere and no police to stop them. Homeless everywhere and spreading crime and diseases like Bubonic Plague, Typhoid, Cholera, Tuberculosis, Polio, etc.
2. San Francisco - Open looting. Carjacking. Gangs roaming everywhere and no police to stop them. Homeless everywhere shitting on the sidewalk and streets and spreading similar diseases.
3. New Orleans
4. Atlanta
5. Portland, OR - Yes. It's worse. North Portland and Burnside Ave is being abandoned to the druggies and homeless. Gangs and crime are increasing as well, due to very low police presence.
6. Seattle. - Too dangerous at night. Daytime is still dicey, but you are right. It is all boarded up. Amazon is moving out of Seattle now, due to unchecked crime.

Favorites:
Boise, ID
Kaanapali, HI (near Lahaina, also a pretty good town).
Bellingham is a good town. I like your choice here, and with the reasons you gave.
I find just about anywhere in Florida to be kinda wacky. A good kind of wacky. Just weird. Miami and Orlando are both anomalies.
I enjoy Anchorage. It's pretty hard to fuck up the natural beauty of the place with just a city council!

I avoid California now. It's just too depressing to drive through. The freeways and other roads are little more than gravel, abandoned farms and ranches are everywhere, there is little water or power, and the people that haven't fled the place are wondering what the hell happened.

You don’t use facts to make those accessnents

Learn to spell.
He did use facts.

You use your personal feelings

He also used personal feelings.

People far more informed and educated than you are worth listening to

Bulverism fallacy.

FORD was a great president?
He was a placeholder appointed to save Nixon and the Republican Party

No. He was President. He was elected.

 

[Into the Night]

What aircraft do you MAGAts have to do your race war with?

Nonsense question.

 

[Into the Night]

Well

More proof your opinions are piles of turds

He is describing these cities accurately, dude.

 

[Into the Night]

Birds are the problem


Birds are not real

Birds are not a problem. They are real. The election fraud by Democrats occurred. It is real.

 

[Into the Night]

If you embrace lies about this nation over known facts you hate this nation

Redefinition fallacy (fact<->Universal Truth). Inversion fallacy.

Clinton didn't cut spending.

I stand corrected but receipts were greater than outlays '98 - '01. Only in '69 did that happen, amazingly during the vietnam war.

Don't forget that JFK launched NASA to the Moon in his great speech on that subject.

That's good. Still wasn't around long enough to judge. He got good pussy, I'll give him that too.

Also don't forget Carter's price controls on gasoline, resulting in long gas lines.

I didn't have time to list all the negatives about that klutz. Nixon also tried price controls.

New Orleans now has the highest murder rate per capita. Add to that, shithole 'hoods are checkerboard mixed with affluent neighborhoods. The criminals now enter restaurants in those neighborhoods and rob at gunpoint all the customers at prime eating out time. Living in a 'good' neighborhood does not protect you from the criminals, actually makes one more of a target.

I enjoy Anchorage. It's pretty hard to fuck up the natural beauty of the place with just a city council!

The last dim mayoral candidate wanted to turn control of the city to the very small minority AK Natives claiming it was in reality a large Athabascan village. He got something like 48% of the vote. Fucking scary.

I avoid California now. It's just too depressing to drive through. The freeways and other roads are little more than gravel, abandoned farms and ranches are everywhere, there is little water or power, and the people that haven't fled the place are wondering what the hell happened.

We'll be visiting Carmel Valley Ranch in Sept. and watch Champions Tour golf tourney at Pebble. Area is a little oasis in an otherwise severely fucked up state.

With the same result: shortages.
That is the one consistent result of price controls.

At least it was entertaining when Carter barfed on the Prime Minister of Japan.

I haven't been to New Orleans in a while...I believe you. It's certainly that kind of town.

Are you speaking of the freeway, or the golf course?
