The son of former Vice President Dan Quayle thinks President Barack Obama is theworst president in history.
Ben Quayle, the progeny of the tongue-tied former politician, is running for a congressional seat in Arizona, which is likely the reason he's come out publicly against the president.
"Barack Obama is the worst president in history," Quayle says in a campaign ad. He goes on to say that his generation will "inherit a weakened country."
"I love Arizona. I was raised right. Somebody has to go to Washington and knock the hell out of the place."
Of course, Quayle's father was known for his memorable public speaking errorsand for misspelling "potato" at an event for schoolchildren and quotes like these:
"What a waste it is to lose one's mind. Or, not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that is?"
"Republicans understand the importance of bondage between a mother and child," he said at another event.
Many people may rank Quayle's dad as one of the worst vice presidents in history.
During his four years in office, he kept the late-night shows in business. So, it's a little weird that his son is making disparaging comments about any politician.
Maybe Ben Quayle is trying to distract voters from the fact that he was once a writer for a site called Dirty Scottsdale.
The site posted pictures of club-goers in the city and then commented on their appearance or actions. Quayle's job was to find the "hottest chick in Scottsdale." Reportedly, Quayle may have written the column under the pseudonym of a porn star from the movie 'Boogie Nights.'
At first, Quayle denied any involvement with the site to Politico:
"I was not involved in the site, Quayle said.
But he later admitted he did post to the site after the story gained steam. The Website is now a national gossip site called The Dirty.
Politico also reported that Quayle sent out campaign literature of himself and his wife surrounded by several kids. In the ad, Quayle said he wanted to raise his family in Arizona.
The only problem is that Quayle doesn't have children.
Phoenix-based GOP strategist Wes Gullet said the Website story will pose problems for Quayle:
"This site is notorious for being disparaging of women. If women voters, Christian voters and very conservative males voters think this guy is doing stuff that is untoward, it will have a huge impact and could easily cost him the race," Gullett, a former presidential campaign adviser to John McCain, told Politico. "When you are caught and you change your story, voters don't like that. When you have nine other choices, voters have plenty of opportunity to pick somebody else."

lol Its amazing that Barack is considered to be the worst .... how quickly people forget of past presidents and the wonderful jobs they did ... reganomics, bushisims, I really think people need to stop being closet RASCIST and just admit they dont want him cause he is black.... and how can the child of a man who can spell even get this kind of recognition???
This is just another right-wing hypocrite trying to act like his ish does not stink.
Proof of this includes the statement "I love Arizona. I was raised right. Somebody has to go to Washington and knock the hell out of the place."
He was raised right but affiliates himself with an organization that debases and devalues a woman. Okay Ben go back to finding the hottest woman in Scottsdale because your political career will be alot shorter than your father's.
Paul, I could not have said it better. This is what Washington needs, for him to go there and knock the hell out of them. This kind of talk is what the GOP supports. Ignorant, Racist, Arrogant, Stupid, and Hateful comments. He should just put on his White Cone Hat with Dunce written in neon letters, get on his White Horse and tryout for the Old Spice Commercial. He stands a better chance.
Boy you really have a love affair with BV. For someone who OBVIOUSLY does not like Black people,you spend a LOT of time here. This is probably the high point of your day. Your screen name is the ONE screen name that I know I will see if I come to BV. You'll have your far out racist remarks(to get a rise out of people)your stats and links to "prove" your so-called "points" about Blacks. Right? But I always wonder why do SOME White people feel the need to do these things. Oh well. Racism is something only racist can understand.
You have no clue, just like millions of ameriacans. His numbers has plunged based on opinion polls that are randomly done by a small percentage of voters. Ben is not right and that is his opinion. The president is just that; and he can not get things done without the help of the congress. It's just like trying to get a loan from a bank. You can not get a loan unless the bank approve it. Then, the back look at many factors besides your credit and it's a fact. That being said, he has many negatives going against him than positive and we all know that. The vast majority of republican congress does not want him to succeed and bank not giving loans to start businessses to employ americans. Do your homework, get educated and all you self centered and non caring people get your head out of where it does not shine and help the people.

Good for Quale, telling the raw truth.
And, it's not just HIS opinion. Obama's polls are the lowest of any president at this point in his term.
