Is George Bush the worst president since Richard Nixon?

GW Bush is by far the most catastrophic president in American history. from the stolen 2000 election and his subsequent installment in the Whitehouse by his daddy's friends on the Supreme Court to his manipulation of intelligence info to lie our nation into a war for profit to his complete and utter failure before, during and after Katrine to his "stay the course" idiocy of his Middle Eastern Vietnam that rude, smirking inarticulate frat boy has committed so many crimes against our country and against the world it'd take me all night to list them.   THE WORST PRESIDENT EVER!  God help America!  he's got 2 more years to do more damage to our Constitutional rights, our environment, our old and our poor, our military, Iraq and the world.  the only ones benefiting from his misadministration are his "have and have mores" base including his war profiteering cronies who own big stock options in Big Oil, Halliburton and the Carlyle Group.

Bush is one of the worst presidents in history. He's ruining this country's military, economy, pride and reputation. He's a liar and fool, not to mention the pet of big business. Not only should he fire Rumsfeld and Chency, but he should resign in disgrace.\nBush sucks!

Depends on how you view worst. Nixon was corupt but did a lot good as well although its was his foreing policy that shined. His domestic agenda was lacking. Carter was benefactor of Nixon's crimes. Carter had no real skills to be President but American wanted an honest man in White House and that what we got. along with long lines at Gas pump and Americans held hostage for a year in Iran. So yes Carter would be on top of my list but I have to feel Bill Clinton was worse and I know many will disagree.

Many historians think that he's the worst in SOME AREAS.  For instance, his handling of the environment has been deemed the worst, and that even George Washington had more regard for the environment.  His tax policies that benefit mostly the rich are also extreme, in that they make Nixon look like a flaming liberal.  I think he has mis-handled the war in Iraq, but we also had Vietnam in recent history.  It is all a matter of opinion, and my opinion is that he definitely isn't the BEST president we've ever had.  And one can truly make the argument that he was put there by his peers so they (Rumsfeld, Rice, Cheney, etc) could run the country.  I actually feel pretty sorry for him, because I think he's just a simple guy that got in too deep.

He is the worst president since Carter, at least.

Bush is by far the worst president we have ever had. Watergate was spying on the other political patry, while what Bush is doing is spying on the general public, and that is horrible.

"Hate" is such a despicable word. However, one  look at the Bush track record, and it's easy to see why George W. Bush was recently voted the "least admirable" man in America!\n\nIn collusion with his brother Jeb, Bush stole the first election, then did it again in the second election. He dumped America into an illegal, unconstitutional war for two reasons: to 'get even' with Saddam Hussein for humiliating George H.W. Bush during Desert Storm in the early 1990's - and to get all or Iraq's oil (actually, that's on Big Dick Cheney's wish list so he can make all his oil-drenched buddies even more obscenely wealthy than they already are). \nBush lied to the American people about weapons of mass destruction. He showed no remorse for all the thousands of Iraq people he's killed, nor has he shown any remorse for the 2,500 U.S. soldiers that his dirty little war has killed. Bush is a spoiled rich kid whose daddy got him out of harm's way while making it appear that he was serving time in a military unit. Macho man that he is, he was still allowed to fly fighter jets because he thought that would be 'cool'. \nHe's snuggled up to big business, special interest groups, the wealthiest individuals in this country, and lobbyists, all of whom can pour millions of dollars into the Republican party. But he's totally neglected the environment; the state of our fragile ecology; the poor, disabled, sick, hungry, and underprivileged in this country; and he's pretty much sold the middle class down the tubes. Because of his reckless policies, the next generation of Americans will live in a two-class society, just like they do in Haiti and the Dominican Republic: the very, very rich and the rest of us, the very, very poor. Americans are now trillions of dollars in debt, which will take generations to pay off. Bush has allowed credit card companies and pharmaceutical companies to cheat people with usurious interest rates and service charges and drugs that might actually shorten their lives!\nBush is a cowboy capitalist who should be impeached...or at least tried for high treason, and - if convicted - he should stand before a firing squad. He has turned America into an "evil empire" that mistrusts its own citizenry, lies to protect its own greedy interests, and spies on anyone that's not liked.\nIt's hard NOT to hate an impotent, stupid, selfish man like Bush.\n\nWatch www.blogger.com for a new 'blog' called BUSHWACKER!\n\nDick Cheney and Don Rumsfeld are just as evil (if you could life their scalps, you'd find "666" underneath their receding hairlines). Surely there's a special oil-saturated corner of Hell reserved for these three demons, where they can spend their eternal damnation.

Worst Democratic president was Franklin Roosevelt. His policies will lead to the ultimate end of the United states. He created the 'Entitlment mentality' that is prevalent today. This will bankrupt us all eventually and continue to foster corruption in government. \nThe worst Republican president was Herbert Hoover. Hoover instituted massive trade Tarrifs that excascerbated the oncoming Depression and was completely inept at influencing economic policy. This worldwide Depression led to the environment in the 30's where people voted for Roosevelt who ruined America! Also, the Depression created the environment of instability that led to the rise of the Axis Powers prior to WWII.

What other president has had to deal with the issues President Bush has had since taking office? The economy was in a slump, 9-11 in his first year, Katrina, the list goes on. Certainly he has made mistakes, but I don't think his mistakes are enough to warrant "worst president ever." What about democratic presidents that got the US involved in Vietnam with over 50,000 DRAFTED US servicemen dead? I am not a Bush fan by any means and I do wish we had elected a different President, but worse ever isn't fair either.

In my opinion...and that is pretty much all these are anyways\n\nWorst President in the History of America is George W. Bush, worse than Nixon....but it is close\n\nBest President in my lifetime is Bill Clinton\n\nBest President of all time is tough i would say Teddy Roosevelt, FDR, Lincoln, JFK, Jefferson, Washington, there are many more that were very good but it is hard to say who was the best all time.

I believe he may possibly be the worst President in American history. He's allowed political corruption to flourish while in office and has alienated a huge number of voters on both sides of the political spectrum by catering to extremists and other specail interests. I don't think he's stupid, but I do believe he's easily swayed by the hawks in his administration. There's no voice of reason since Colin Powell resigned... \n\nFurther, he's increased the national debt by over 2 TRILLION dollars, while cutting taxes...I'm no fan of taxes, but his fiscal policies are dangerous and potentially ruinous....what's worse is that kids like you will be left holding the bag...

I concur, and sadly I don't think we've seen the worst of the wanna be emperor. Bush and the republicans are acting like the azz kicking they got  a month ago at thte polls was an aberration. Bipartisanship and Bush is an oxymoron. He will go down kicking and screaming like the spoiled child that he is.
