Who do you believe are the worst Americans of all time?
Be prepared to defend your choices! I'm expecting a lot of "George W. Bush for being a stupid dum dum head," so make sure you can stay and defend your choices. This is not a concrete list (actually, I'm going to pick some controversial figures for the sake of debate) but here, in no particular order: FDR- For pretty much becoming a dictator during WWII, not to mention mishandling it. Nathan Bedford Forrest- For starting the KKK. Joe McCarthy- For his overzealous crusade against Communism. U.S. Grant- For being a terribly ineffective president, especially after the Civil War. Robert McNamara- For mishandling the Vietnam War. Malcolm X- For undoing what MLK JR III did by supporting violent miltantism. I can't think of any more bad Americans at the moment, but I'll let you guys have a go. |

Michael Moore. He pretty much shaped modern liberalism into a philosophy of anti-American hate.

QUOTE(ermfermoo @ Dec 31 2005, 3:25 PM)  Michael Moore. He pretty much shaped modern liberalism into a philosophy of anti-American hate. imo, michael moore is an amazing human-being. sure he bends the truth sometimes and fiddles with his camera to make something look worse than it is, but at least he has the guts to speak his opinion no matter the cost. plus, he has done some astounding documentaries. being canadian, i'm not familiar with many "bad americans" other than george w. bush. he just repulses me. all he appears to care about is money and power, and he'll do whatever it takes to get it, even if it means killing innocent people in the process. i'm highly apposed to war, so that's another reason why i really dislike him. another reason why i don't like george bush is how he handled september 11 and the new orleans flooding. when the two places were hijacked and flown into the trade centers, he had people helping within hours. whereas, when new orleans was flooded, it took him days to get help in, what i believe, was one of the worst disasters i've been alive to see. that information just reinforces my accusation of him being money-hungry. new york is a weathly state and, for the most part, you see weathly people there. new orleans on the other hand is a poor state. that's basically all i have to say about that. |
