Most recently, Nixon, Reagan and Bush are probably the worst ever.

I agree, Reagan was no saint - during his administration the
middle class was going broke, like now. If your license plate
ended in a even no., you could buy gas, only on the even days.
The wealthy always seem to flourish when they're in office,
while the middle class struggles to survive.

First of all Ronald Reagan was a great man. DO NOT put him in with the rest of those names. As far as Republicans seeming to be the most corrupt...Democrats are just better at getting away with it. Do you think if a Republican president got blown by an intern in the oval office that it would all just blow over (no pun intended)? Or if this same Republican's wife was implicated in a colossal real estate scam, would he have come out of it smelling like a rose? Of course not! Republicans have the added baggage of trying to say they have traditional values (such as honesty). Democrats don't burden themselves with such trifles. Don't get me wrong, they're all crooks. Its just that Republicans take time to try to look honest.

Because they actually ARE the most corrupt and incompetent.
Please don't smear Nixon and Reagan by putting in the same sentence as W.

Because you have an agenda. Clinton was no prize either. Nor was Johnson and Kennedy died before anyone could figure his angle out. Luckily we can just look at Ted for answers to that. May I also remind you Abraham Lincoln was a Republican.

Reagan???
Did you see that he won almost every state in his re-election?
Do you know what you are talking about? He united the nation, and to this day, only the most deviant psychopaths hate him. His funeral was a 4 day event! Perhaps one of the most beloved presidents of all time.
Liberals couldn't even help but like him. Even the comedians couldn't attack his policies, so they just made fun of his speaking style. Kind of like every republican president.

oh you young FOOOOL! They are all corrupt. Republican only seem more corrupt because of media spin and bias. Clinton sold pardons, Nixon broke laws and his vice prez, Spiro T. Agnew, was thrown out of office for corruption while he was in state government, Kennedy was assassinated by the mob for going back on the deal he made with them, and so on and so on..............RR was a Saint and an exception.

Where have you been. They are all f**ked up man. But did you know that Christopher Columbus was the greatest liberal off all. He stared out on a voyage not knowing where he was going. And when he arrived he didn't no where he was. And he did it all using the governments money.

It's all in the eyes of the beholder. If you think in such a way that you expect (and maybe even want) to see the worst, you WILL. And I guess you DO.

Holy crap! You didn't just invoke the name of St. Ronald in connection with corruption, did you? You'd better keep an eye out the window for a while.
