Stacking the court with 8 of 9 justices, running the economy into the ground, getting America involved in wars it opposed, and drafting young americans into government slavery.

I’d say he was the worst president. He’s in competition with Wilson and Lincoln though.

Hard to guess what you imagine future historians will credit Bush for if you can’t see the great good of FDR extending modern infrastructure such as highways and electricity through the more rural areas (best investment since the Louisiana purchase?), creating a social safety net to protect our most vulnerable, and handling the small matter of defeating the Nazis.

Grant was a close second, in drinking level to Churchill, that is….

Maybe we should Andrew Jackson as one of the worst too since he intentional massacred indians and refused to honor legitimate treaties.

He was great president other than that, but doesn’t that alone make him one of the worst?

Well in some ways certainly better.

FDR was definitely MUCH worse.

Lincoln is one of these weird ones though. If he was REALLY fighting the south to stop slavery, which I have my doubts, then you can paint him in a good light…kind of because the south was so evil also. He was still a war criminal in many respects though.

Wilson has to be a candidate for worst too though.

Wait a minute. Are you REALLY saying that George W. Bush was a better president than Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt?

What about LBJ, Nixon, FDR, Lincoln, and Wilson?

I don’t think Bush was the WORST. Just really bad.
