On September 19, 2012 at the White House daily press briefing then press
secretary Jay Carney condemned the judgement of Charlie Hebdo magazine
for publishing “deeply offensive,” anti-Islamic cartoons.
I would say "worst" White House . . . but that is just a nitpicking quibble from a curmudgeonly English composition teacher who would prefer the superlative rather than the comparative. . . But more to the point, I would agree with you about the White House and its relative place in history; however, time and the history writers will sort all of that out later more objectively (i.e., I think we may now be too close to judge accurately, and those who criticize the White House are often unfairly indicted as intolerant bigots).
And you are right RT - on both counts - (it was a typo on my part in the headline - I thought worst but wrote worse, which is kind of a double entendre) fixed it
