re: Bush is the worst because...

Nixon did not start the Vietnam war.

So, who did? Maybe they should be on the list.

Reagan didn't start a unending war either.

No, he stopped one, and is still reviled by the Left for it. During his administration, the constant drumbeat was that he would certainly get us into a nuclear war with his opposition to the Soviet Union. The Left, on the other hand, took the Soviet side--or the side of Soviet allies--on every last issue. Other than the war issue, there is very little I've heard said about Bush that I hadn't heard said about Reagan.

Look, I'm not saying Bush is going to end up being on the dollar bill, but calling Bush the worst president in history on pretty much any measurement (war, economy, you-name-it) shows an appalling ignorance of that history. What about all the railing on Bush and Constitutional rights? Cripes, Roosevelt hauled American citizens out of their homes and put them in camps.
