I Have No Doubt Bush Will Be More Reviled Than Nixon In His Own Lifetime!

He is hands down the most miserable failure of a presidency this country has ever seen. Combine that with the most devestating natural disaster the country has ever seen and you have a failed presidency of "Biblical Proportions"!

1. He's already surpassed Nixxon

I'd very much rather have Nixxon right now. I thought I'd never in my life ever say that.

What's happening in NOLA would have never happened under Nixxon.

4. It might have still happened, but Nixon would appear to be competent

in his response. We'd still hate him, of course, for an abundance of reasons. Nixon was a complex, destructive, perhaps insane man, but he wasn't stupid.

Shrub is a good object lesson why Americans should never let another mentally defective person near the White House. We need to consider whether there needs to be some sort of professional standards -- like the bar exam or medical boards -- for the job.

2. He's reviled already - I don't think that his reputation will ever recover

from Hurricane Katrina.

5. I think Milhouse had more of a conscience than this asshole.

Shit-for-Brains goes way beyond contemptible. I think Nixon had a little bit of a sense of remorse for being caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Smirky never will.

7. the big difference between Nixon & Bush

Is that the media was much more impartial in Nixon's day, and also much, much more independent and less consolidated. They were also not as profit driven...

Nowadays, the media is part of the RW propaganda machine with very little allowed in dissent.

10. Sure sounds to me

like the reporters covering this tragedy are getting more and more pissed all the time.

Myles Obrien just went after Barbour and it looked like Barbour was going blow a cork.

11. Got a Zogby poll today

The questions included:
"If the election were held today would you vote for G. W. Bush or Ronald Reagan?"
A DEAD GUY!
"If the election were held today would you vote for G. W. Bush or Richard Nixon?"A DEAD ANOTHER DEAD GUY!

Carter, Clinton, and HW BUSH! were the other choices.
Each question included the 'Someone Else' option.

BUT TWO DEAD GUYS ON THE POLL AND BOTH OF THEM WERE SHITS!!.

Oooo he is just so much toast these days. The history books will rank him up there with the worst Presidents.
