28. I can't believe the country survived this fool

His defenders, and even some who are really not but willing to concede, always want to point out he did a couple of good things, his visit to China to normalize relations with the Chinese, creating the EPA (which some of today's repuke's would like to dismantle), and whatever else they point out which I can't come up with at the moment. But the fact is he did more damage and left more wreckage in his wake from his presidency than if the rest of them had all gotten caught getting a blow job in the Oval Office. I fail to understand how so many right wing pundits say, with a straight face no less, that Obama is the most destructive president we have ever had when in my lifetime we've had at least two (Nixon, Reagan), R presidents who did so much more, in different ways, to damage this country nearly beyond redemption. Obama is indecisive, not destructive. Nixon wanted to fuck up the whole world then force democracy down it's throat and I guess bombing the living hell out of a couple of Third World countries was the way to get it done. Also, propping up merciless dictators in Central and South America. Reagan did this as well. Then of course there was Iran/Contra. I will NEVER see Reagan as someone who was instrumental in the dismantling of the Soviet Union, bringing down the wall and the eventual reunification of Germany. Gorbachev did these things. If I believed in hell I would hope that Nixon and Reagan are currently sharing the same burning pit, each eternally reliving the fuck ups they committed in life, but since I don't I'll just be happy that they did not succeed in killing the country they claimed to love and pledged to defend by the god they both said they believed in.
