“What presidents mean to the people is more than the sum of their policies. Presidents who can voice the people’s hopes and ideals and help them give voice to their aspirations” rank highest.

In other words, talk a good game and they’ll love you!

Not surprised. I haven’t seen Family Guy in a while, so I turned it on last night, and there was some contrived plot about Lois cheating on Peter with Bill Clinton. She says something like, how could I resist the man who reformed welfare.

Clinton has been taking credit for welfare reform and the balanced budget, but Republicans were in control then. Didn’t Newt shutdown gov’t so Clinton would sign welfare reform?

Also, remember that eccentric professor posing a question to Michelle when she spoke at her alma mater? It wasn’t a question; he praised the man for giving us an unemployment rate of 4.8%, (currently it’s 4.5%) and asked Michelle what she thought. She gave one of the best answers, by saying, hey, look at the economic reports, the economy is doing well. As soon as she said that, the entire place erupted in applause.

Meanwhile I am LMAO!!!!

What a bunch of suck-ups!

OK, I’ll bite (full sacasam ON)………

With the Clinton War Room in full OPS mode, if it wasn’t his DNA, why is she still alive? Why was a vote in the Senate even approved (meaning allowed to take place)? Why does Bill Maher still want to be a receiver of semen?

And during this time, what was our “friends” in the Middle East doing???????

I only hope they made them answer in essay format.

Are you kidding? These are professors we’re talking about here, so all they could answer were multiple-choice questions.

Unbelievable. The leftists elite concept of government really is more of a religion than a political system.

Like I said in an adjacent thread, it is the principle of
“all fluff, no stuff” that is at work here. You are absolutely correct. It is a religion that we talking about here — and it is astonishing to me that so many people can make such a lucrative living by simply spouting rhetoric, all the while accomplishing absolutely nothing of lasting consequence.

Clinton received the highest average score, though no historian ranked him as one of the “Greats.” Reagan garnered a number of “great” marks, but also received numerous “below average” marks, dragging down his score and indicating that he is still a polarizing figure.

There you have it, several historians list Reagan as great and none rate Clinton as such, but Clinton is ranked higher as Reagan is “still a polarizing figure” and a few historians listed him as below average most likely due to political opinion and not historical relevance. Can you say bias?

The most important result of this poll: Several historians say that Reagan was one of the Greats! All of the historians say that Clinton was just average! Ha, take that liberals!

Why are they asking History professors? How about economics or -gosh, this is crazy- political science professors?

I only hope they made them answer in essay format.

A couple of guys from Alvernia College (well known as the Harvard of wherever it is Alvernia might be located) have surveyed a gaggle of history professors on who the best president of the past 25 years was, and the voices of academia have spoken:……

Was that picture of Bill Clinton before or after he ejaculated on an intern?

There you neocons go twisting facts again! It was on a dress not an intern! Oh, and it wasn’t him, there was no DNA testing done, and umm even if there were you know they would have tampered with the results.

And new crayons.

The reference to a “Presidential Performance Study” in a PR release sounds so much like the pump and dump stock touts I get in my spam email. This isn’t a “news story,” *IT IS A NEW RELEASE* from some two-bit college and professors that NOBODY has ever heard of before.

The only question for me is how quickly these two lying leftist academicians can be linked to the Clintons.

Hard to get a consensus on these. But who is kidding whom? Clinton and Carter judged other than disastrous? I don’t care if the guy cures cancer, just the fact that he has BJ’s in the oval office, cheating on his wife while abusing his power over an intern, while simultaneously discussing war plans on the phone, and later committing purjury and selling out his constitutional pardon privelege for money…wouldn’t that eliminated the word “good” from a description of any such president?

And Carter was a textbook failure in every possible way!

C’MON! GET REAL HERE!
