Top 5 BadAss Presidents

Of course the number 1 spot went to Theodore Roosevelt. It is not possible to exaggerate how much ass he kicked.

I'm surprised LBJ didn't make the list.

But Johnson found it difficult to sustain his rationality in dealing with war critics. During a private conversation [in late '67] with some reporters who pressed him to explain why we were in Vietnam, Johnson lost his patience. According to Arthur Goldberg, �LBJ unzipped his fly, drew out his substantial organ, and declared, �This is why!�

ok, so 50,000 Americans died because LBJ has a penis. Seems reasonable. ?

Im surprised Lincoln didnt make the list. He is controversial, but he helped to maintain the one of the most fearsome naval blockades in the Earth's history.

I also read the article that this one linked to about the nine manliest names in history, and I must wholeheartedly agree with the list, but I must also point out that there is a guy out there whose name is (admittedly, because he changed it) Optimus Prime.
