1. I'd vote for the unholy corpse of Nixon over the chimp in the White House.

2. It's not even close--worst president in every category
domestic issues
civil rights
corruption
foreign policy
incompetence
embarrassment

By any measure of being a bad president, he worst by a country mile except maybe the measure of getting his program done (which just happens to be bad for 99.9% of Americans and the world).

4. Grant was supposed to have been very corrupt, and Buchanan had been
considered to be the worst for letting the Union fall apart. Bush will most certainly rank as the worst overall when all is said and done. I think that Bush is the only president who was truly evil, evil in a Biblical sense. 50 or 100 years from now, school kids will look back and wonder how this happened. And yes, they will compare him to other Fascist tyrants.

7. My understanding was that Grant was clueless, but not
personally corrupt. His administration, however, was known to be the most corrupt prior to this one.

*, however, while not personally profitting (that we are aware of) is directly and personally enriching family and cronies - and I have no doubt that a portion of that wealth will find its way back to him eventually.

Most corrupt president ever.

13. Grant wasn't personally corrupt, but he did look the other way a lot
and pardoned members of his administration were were clearly guilty

6. The Usurper-in-Chief has committed the ultimate hijacking

8. Yes, if Cheney is not considered a president we've had.
Though certainly he is a president we've been had by.
