Did I miss something? What is up with all the crap about Obama being "worst"?
Here I am looking at political toons and a bunch are coming up with this crap. Is this the latest Fox meme?

examples







The reality:

(some would argue he hasn't moved on some of these, but that doesn't make him 'worst'. The one who created most of these holds that title)

They're just so happy to see him fail.

4. Carter was one of our weakest presidents, not one of the worst.
If you look at how presidential historians rate him you will see that he was below average but not near the bottom. Rating change over the years. I can remember when Truman was considered a terrible president. Hell, I can remember when Reagan was considered a good president.

5. George W. Bush is the worst president in American history.
They know they'll never change that.

8. Bob Gorrell's kind of a wanker.

First of all, there isn't really a joke there, per se.

Secondly, two things mentioned in his "strip" are the results of long-standing problems caused by arch-conservative, laissez-fail economic policies that pre-date Obama by about a decade or three.

And the "environmental disaster" . . . I'm not sure that's the fault of any president, guy. I think the entity you're looking to blame would be BP for years of cost-cutting and lax safety in the name of mega profits. Remember, this isn't the first oil disaster on BP's watch.
