So you consider Andrew Jackson to most admirable yet you also consider him to be worthy enough to be at number ten in your loath list.


I only have some that I find generally admirable for the most part though they where imperfect just like all humans.

1) Thomas Jefferson
2) Theodore Roosevelt



Worthy of loathing (really a tie for the top spot)
1) Adolf Hitler
2) Joseph Stalin
3) The mayor of Toronto with the crack smoking video seems pretty worthless

Admire Andrew Jackson, and loathe Andrew JOHNSON

Remember folks, politicians are a different species.

The act of being elected mutates DNA at chromosome level. Homo Horribilis

It could be your friend or family member, once elected they're not who they used to be. The sooner you get used to the idea of ramming a stake through their eyes the better.

Politicians hearts pump not blood, but an oily viscous goo that boils when exposed to sunlight.

Politicians. They're not people.

Why do you loathe Lincoln Bubble? Sure he did a lot wrong but he kept the Union together in the end and also ended slavery.(Also if he hadn't been assassinated we may never have even needed the civil rights movement.)
