  One can be a bad politician and basically a good person and one can be a great politician and basically a bad person.

  I think the US politician who did the most damage to this Country in my lifetime was Jimmy Carter, but 'bama will soon catch up and leave him in the dust. Bush Jr. is definitely nowhere to be found on my favorites list, either.

  Nancy Pelosi and Barbara Boxer both win top honors for "most insane." John Kerry is at the top of the liars list and Al Gore and John Edwards each get an award for biggest hypocrites. But if he was a bonafide politician, Jesse Jackson would outrank all of them in every bad category. Maxine Watters takes top honors for "biggest bitch."

  A good politician isn't necessarily a good leader. He's just a good liar.

  How about short, but specific examples why you feel that way? What led you to that conclusion?

  Hitler (thinking outside of the US box and I assume I don't have to have been alive at that time)

  Mad Sweeney gives an excellent list. They were all Hitler like.

  Hitler, yes - but very possibly Stalin killed as many or more people.

  james_woods,

  :Hitler, yes - but very possibly Stalin killed as many or more people.

  Not very possibly. Stalin killed more. Tens of millions more. Mostly his own people.
