Can there be any doubt now? GW Bush - Worst President Ever.
The list of failures during the man's tenure is astonishing and covers every category imaginable. A complete disaster on almost every front. He gets some props for fighting AIDS/HIV on the African continent, but that is truly the only positive thing I can think of that comes from his eight years and $billions and $billions of dollars of debt he leaves this country saddled with.I don't see how even his true believers can deny the numbers, not after this week.

7. No, he is in a "class" of his own.
He is so far and away the worst, that there is no second place.

I thought Nixon and Andrew Johnson were at the bottom. They look like FDR, Washington and Lincoln rolled into one compared to W.

5. There was no doubt long before this happened. 61% of historians already rate him worst ever.
This was way back last spring. W has wrecked this nation.

"In an informal survey of 109 professional historians conducted over a three-week period through the History News Network, 98.2 percent assessed the presidency of Mr. Bush to be a failure while 1.8 percent classified it as a success." http://hnn.us/articles/48916.html

6. I think he won the nationals in this category years ago. He's now competing on the
world stage, with Nero, King John, etc.

10. Excellent! Yeah, we can no longer compare him to other presidents. It's Worst World Leaders ever.
Nobody is ever going to be worse than Hitler, of course.

But I put Georgie in there with, say, Nicolae Ceauşescu of Romania. Only even less competent. And he ended up very badly.

8. Buchanan and Hoover were I think the former holders of that title
but with finally crippling the economy, W has cemented his place as by far the worst.
Lies & secrecy, cronyism, bribery, failed response to crisis after crisis, attack on our country, illegal war, outing a spy, and now the crown jewel.
It would take 5 or six of the worst to equal 1 W.
And somehow he got re-appointed.
And his evil, stupider twin brother is running to take his place.
Let us hope and hope that maybe America has learned it's lesson and W will always be brought up in the same breath as Benny Arnold. And he will soon be despised and used as a "Never Again" type campaign.

9. It'll be a long time before we forget this one
I have faith that the lot of them will be making a trip to The Netherlands before this is all said and done. That belief gives me hope for the future, without it I would be a basket case no doubt.

14. Jesus I can't imagine real working person wanting another Bush* in office
for a century or two, if the planet lasts that long. Poppy can go screw himself. He was part of ruining this nation.
