Who's administration was/is the most corrupt, Richard Nixon's, Ronald Reagan's, or GW Bush's?

Question

For those who do not know the facts about Reagan:

Large volumes of documents relating to the scandal were destroyed or withheld from investigators by Reagan Administration officials.[2] The affair is still shrouded in secrecy. It involved several members of the Reagan Administration who in 1986 helped to illegally sell arms to Iran, an avowed enemy, and used the proceeds to fund, also illegally, the Contras, a right-wing insurgent organization in Nicaragua.

There isn't enough bandwidth to post the chronicles of the Bush crime family.

Answer 1

Bill Clinton brought absolute shame into the White House with his blatant disregard for God's Ten Commandments with his affair and LYING UNDER AND OATH TO GOD for which he will be denied a place in Heaven if he does not repent.

George W. Bush is trying to create a beacon of peace and freedom in a oppressive, non-Christian part of the world. He is trying to bring them God's light using American Democracy and you liberals want to stop him which doesn't make any sense if you love God, are country and support are troops. Please think about what you are saying and I will pray for your soul.

Answer 2

They are all three closely matched on the Corrupt-O-meter.

Each has or had a specialty that put them is the upper register of diabolical conduct.

If I'm elected I will not use the N word like Nixon. Sell weapons to Religious Fascists like Reagen or seek to kill a family enemy, like Bush

Answer 3

Bush by shear volume is probably most corrupt. Carter's was almost as inept as Bush's. No one died when Nixon broke into the Watergate and erased the tapes.

I'd like to note that all administrations in the last 40-50 years have had some kind of sleaze factor to it.

Answer 4

except via "corrupt" you're bearing on the state of corporal decomposition, the respond is easily Bush. even with the undeniable fact that there has been a tendancy for presidents to get successively worse and worse popular over the years. do not doubt for a 2d the potential for somebody even WORSE following Bush in some unspecified time interior the destiny, quite because of the fact the underlying reason nevertheless festers. And that reason is purely too plenty capacity interior the administrative branch. Lord Acton replaced into actual while he reported "capacity corrupts, and absolute capacity corrupts easily". virtually each president desires to be a "wartime president". Why? because of the fact a state of conflict has been an traditionally useful potential to justify grabbing greater capacity. conflict is the well-being of tyranny. The partisan voters who think of that "their" president's expansion of powers is powerful for united statesa. are somewhat short-sighted while they fail to evaluate how those self same prolonged powers are used as quickly as the "different" social gathering's candidate gets into workplace. Bush has had all significant decision making (he's the "Decider" in spite of each little thing) surpassed over to him via congress, who've abdicated their constitutional responsibilities to supply a verify and stability against government capacity (gridlock replaced into precisely what the founders needed). Why ought to the subsequent president renounce all the hot powers that the administrative branch now has? it style of feels not likely, not one of the common crop of Democrats look to have what it could take. greater possibly they could have faith the capacity could be used for "good" (as could his constituants). And he too will grow to be corrupted via the capacity. like the ring bearer. To paraphrase Bush "it could be good purchase greater handy if this replaced right into a decidership, and that i replaced into the decider". Get it?

Answer 5

Richard Nixon with GW Bush following a close second.

Answer 6

So I guess you just see Republicans as corrupt and Democrats as perfect, Only a few days into office the Clinton's got rid of the non-partisan travel office to put in their cronies. Their corruption did not stop until the last day when they stole government equipment and vandalized it.

Answer 7

You didn't mention Bill Clinton. The 8 year administration had 27 Cabinet turn overs. My favorite was Jocilyn Elders. You remember her, don't you? The Surgeon General?? She was the one that wanted masterbation taught to pre schoolers and said her favorite rock star was Eric ClapNER....what a bozo.

Answer 8

Ronald Reagan's by far. He was faster than a speeding bullet, stronger than a locomotive, and could leap tall buildings in a single bound. He single-handily tore apart the democratic party and won by a landslide. If that is not the most corrupt politician I will turn in my ACLU card today!

Answer 9

You missed a few. Nixon had the integrity to step down for the good of the country. He was never asked. Sorry, barking up the wrong tree with your other choices in my opinion.

** I see the others said what I would, WJ first.

Answer 10

Bill Clinton's
