Ugh.

Worst president ever. Well, maybe, maybe not (I wasn't alive when Harding was in office, so who can say), but still, when your security team thinks it would be a good idea to shut down the city you're visiting and set up a sniper network, despite the fact that said city is the capital of one of America's strongest and most long-time allies, then I might suggest that you may be doing something wrong.

worst president EVER!

short comment follows (I could spend hours writing the long version):

Trust me, our Great Leader is significantly worse than Harding. Harding (and Grant) were disconnected dopes who let their cronies loot the govt. Bush and Cheney are letting their cronies loot the world--and that's just for starters. Based upon his policies and impact on the American people and the world, the only American president who was worse than Bush was Jefferson Davis, the president of the Confederacy. Even Reagan's administration was more responsible. I have to add that Harding and Grant at least won a plurality of the votes, too.

Isn't the Guardian great?

Are you basing the Davis judgement just on the fact that he was the president of the Confederacy, or on other policies as well?

Goddammit, my "brief" response is longer than LJ allows for comments. Go get it here.
