Then, driven by hubris and sheer bravado, and aided by a blatant disregard for the truth, he embroiled the country in two wars, ran roughshod over civil liberties, destroyed our standing abroad, and left the economy in shambles. And for all that he is only 36th? It is enough to make me seek the comfort of a willing T-girl. Can anyone help me out here?

I don't necessarily think Bush will be regarded as the worst president that ever lived, but I definitely agree with what you're saying. I really think the worst thing he did was surround himself with bad people. The president should be taking advice from Harvard economics professors, not appointing his asshole friends to run everything for him.

I think perjury is actually a pretty big deal, and Clinton did some other really shady stuff. As many jokes as people make about it, the fact is that Clinton sexually harassed a lot of people and supposedly made a habit of pulling his cock out then calling random women into his office. Regardless, if you think that's worse than Bush starting a war and pissing away unheard of amounts of money -- not to mention the overt corruption of demanding that nobody can be prosecuted for misuse of bailout money, and the abuse of power involved in the signing statements where he basically rewrote everything Congress did -- and let's not even get into the Patriot Act -- well ... forget all that. The point is that I sincerely hope you are not who you say you are because you're an embarrassment to the trans community. Bush considers us abominations and would gladly have us executed for being freaks if he could.

Yes he was. Impeachment isn't the same as being removed from office.
