Respond to this Article September 2003 The Mendacity Index Which president told the biggest whoppers? To come up with our Mendacity Index, we asked a nominating committee* of noted journalists and pundits to pick the most serious fibs, deceptions, and untruths spoken by each of the four most recent presidents. We selected the top six for each commander-in-chief, then presented the list to a panel of judges** with longtime experience in Washington. Panel members were instructed to rate each deception on a scale of 1 (least serious) to 5 (most serious). Then we averaged the scores for each deception and for each president. We believe their validity rests somewhere between the Periodic Table and the college rankings. Don't trust our experts? We invite you to take the survey yourself. Click here to go view the average scores for each president's specific fibs: Ronald Reagan George H. W. Bush Bill Clinton George W. Bush Ronald Reagan Overall Mendacity Rating = 3.3 Killer Trees. After opining in August 1980 that "trees cause more pollution than automobiles do," Reagan arrived at a campaign rally to find a tree decorated with this sign: "Chop me down before I kill again." Score = 1.8

Last update:06/13/2004 00:50 MSK Russia World Science and Culture Accidents ... About Pravda.RU:World:More in detail Hard times for Bush US President George Bush is facing the challenging task of tackling the Middle Eastern problem against the background of the US failure in Iraq. On Monday, Bush held talks with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in Washington. On Wednesday, he is to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. On April 21, Jordanian King Abdallah II arrives in the USA. The connection between Palestine and Iraq is obvious in all of these meetings, past and future. If the USA accepts defeat in Iraq, this will change the lineup of forces in the Middle East completely. Extremists and terrorists will dictate their policy to the region and Washington will be no longer able to support Israel. It will have to fight terrorists on all fronts and support for Israelis will have a negative effect on the US standing in the region. The extremists in Iraq who attack US troops blame the USA not only for the occupation of Iraq but also for supporting Israel. Before the overthrow of Saddam Hussein, the Arab world and other countries thought Washington was working not just for its own but also for Israeli interests in Iraq. It was also believed that the defeat of Hussein would give Washington room for manoeuvre in the Arab-Israeli peace process. Some analysts even discussed the possibility of a peace treaty between the "new" Iraqi government and Israel. They pictured a big happy Greater Middle East. Alas, it was not to be.

After many setbacks, he accepted the surrender of British general Cornwallis at Yorktown in 1781. After the war Washington retired to his Virginia estate, Mount Vernon, but in 1787 he re-entered politics as president of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, and was elected US president in 1789. He attempted to draw his ministers from all factions, but his aristocratic outlook and acceptance of the fiscal policy championed by Alexander Hamilton alienated his secretary of state, Thomas Jefferson, who resigned in 1793, thus creating the two-party system. Washington was re-elected president in 1792 but refused to serve a third term, setting a precedent that stood until 1940. He died and was buried at his home in Mount Vernon, Virginia.

The Great Republic: Presidents and States of the United States of America, and Comments on American History Taking everything together then, I declare that our city is the School of Greece [ ], and I declare that in my opinion each single one of our citizens, in all the manifold aspects of life, is able to show himself the rightful lord and owner of his own person, and do this, moreover, with exceptional grace and exceptional versatility. And to show that this is no empty boasting for the present occasion, but real tangible fact, you have only to consider the power which our city possesses and which has been won by those very qualities which I have mentioned. Athens, alone of the states we know, comes to her testing time in a greatness that surpasses what was imagined of her. The speech of Pericles, The Peloponnesian War , by Thucydides [Book Two, XLI:1, translated by Rex Warner, Penguin Books, 1954, 1964, p.119] The history of the United States may conveniently be divided into three parts, the " Old Republic ," 1789-1861, the " Middle Republic ," 1861-1933, and the " New Republic ," 1933-2005.

After his father died when George was eleven, George's mother Mary, a tough and driven woman, struggled to hold their home together with the help of her two sons from a previous marriage. Although he never received more than an elementary school education, young George displayed a gift for mathematics. This knack for numbers combined with his quiet confidence and ambition caught the attention of Lord Fairfax, head of one of the most powerful families in Virginia. While working for Lord Fairfax as a surveyor at the age of sixteen, the young Washington traveled deep into the American wilderness for weeks at a time.

George Washington - A Concise Biography On April 30, 1789, George Washington, standing on the balcony of Federal Hall on Wall Street in New York, took his oath of office as the first President of the United States. "As the first of every thing, in our situation will serve to establish a Precedent," he wrote James Madison, "it is devoutly wished on my part, that these precedents may be fixed on true principles." Born in 1732 into a Virginia planter family, he learned the morals, manners, and body of knowledge requisite for an 18th century Virginia gentleman. He pursued two intertwined interests: military arts and western expansion. At 16 he helped survey Shenandoah lands for Thomas, Lord Fairfax. Commissioned a lieutenant colonel in 1754, he fought the first skirmishes of what grew into the French and Indian War. The next year, as an aide to Gen. Edward Braddock, he escaped injury although four bullets ripped his coat and two horses were shot from under him. From 1759 to the outbreak of the American Revolution, Washington managed his lands around Mount Vernon and served in the Virginia House of Burgesses. Married to a widow, Martha Dandridge Custis, he devoted himself to a busy and happy life. But like his fellow planters, Washington felt himself exploited by British merchants and hampered by British regulations. As the quarrel with the mother country grew acute, he moderately but firmly voiced his resistance to the restrictions.
