Is "malarkey" better or worse than "bullshit"?

I was born in Delaware and until I was 17 lived less than 5 miles from the PA/DE border so I reckon I have Joe Biden (D - DE) as my honorary Senator. This means that I can claim him when he makes considerable sense, which he often does, and I can disown him when he talks a load of bollocks, which he does nearly as often. Yesterday was a day when I reckon I am safe in claiming him. His comments on Captain Codpiece's incredible and damaging speech in Jerusalem are I think concise and on point:
"This is bullshit, this is malarkey. This is outrageous, for the president of the United States to go to a foreign country, to sit in the Knesset ... and make this kind of ridiculous statement."
