USA TODAY FOUNDER: WORST PRESIDENT EVER

by: Connecticut Man1

Sat Feb 17, 2007 at 00:20:29 AM EST


An excerpt from USA TODAY founder Al Neuharth's OpEd to amend a previously written opinion:
Mea culpa to Bush on Presidents Day -

"A year ago I criticized Hillary Clinton for saying 'this (Bush) administration will go down in history as one of the worst.'

'She's wrong,' I wrote. Then I rated these five presidents, in this order, as the worst: Andrew Jackson, James Buchanan, Ulysses Grant, Hoover and Richard Nixon. 'It's very unlikely Bush can crack that list,' I added.

I was wrong. This is my mea culpa. Not only has Bush cracked that list, but he is planted firmly at the top."

Got it?

WORST PRESIDENT EVER!

Connecticut Man1 :: USA TODAY FOUNDER: WORST PRESIDENT EVER
Ok... So the terrorism part first:

Terrorism charges brought Friday against the administrator of a loan investment program claimed that he secretly tried to send $152,000 to the Middle East to buy equipment such as night vision goggles for a terrorist training camp in Afghanistan.

Abdul Tawala Ibn Ali Alishtari, 53, of Ardsley, N.Y., pleaded not guilty in U.S. District Court in Manhattan to an indictment accusing him of terrorism financing, material support of terrorism and other charges. The charges carried a potential penalty of 95 years in prison.




But would you really believe me if I told you he was a Republican?

CBS News has confirmed that Alishtari is a donor to the Republican Party, as he claims on his curriculum vitae. Alishtari gave $15,500 to the National Republican Campaign Committee between 2002 and 2004, according to Federal Election Commission records. That amount includes $13,000 in 2003, a year when he claims to have been named NRCC New York State Businessman of the Year.

Alishtari also claims to be a lifetime member of the National Republican Senate Committee's Inner Circle, which the NRCC describes as "an impressive cross-section of American society - community leaders, business executives, entrepreneurs, retirees, and sports and entertainment celebrities - all of whom hold a deep interest in our nation's prosperity and security."



The Republican party needs to be placed on "The List" of terrorist related organizations and watched very carefully.


It is pretty apparent that the FBI and Homeland Security are wasting their time watching us liberal/peacenik/Quaker/progressive/etc. types. Just ask Ken Krayeske...

Worst person in the wooooorld! (4.00 / 1)
Haven't seen Countdown with Keith in awhile. But has georgie ever been worst person in the world in his show?

The arc of history is long, but it bends toward justice. --Martin Luther King, Jr.

KO was just (0.00 / 0)
reupped for another 4 years of the best news on any of the big news networks. Countdown is easily the only hard news show that rivals comedy centrals Daily Show as far as informative content, fact checking, and opinions in the USA.

That is a huge plus for MSNBC, as Countdown has become their flagship. And they even offered him some bonus "Prime Time" slots... Countdown should be their primetime offering, IMHO. Then again, isn't an 8:00 PM eastern slot coupled with the midnight EST slot kindof still primetime?

MSNBC (0.00 / 0)
he has primetime in the cable slot.

They offered him some primetime face time on non-cable (NBC) and that is HUGE!


The question is not what you are, we already determined that, we are now negotiating price.
