Naaah.  Ronald Reagan for being more gullible than the people for all
the Iran-Contra crap Oliver North snowed him with.

Hey, let's not forget Carter here, after all, he "lusted in his heart."
And, ooo here's Reagan again... HE DIVORCED HIS FIRST WIFE!!!

: 4. William Jefferson Clinton for setting poor examples regarding
:    cronyism.

This is truly fecal matter.  Warren Harding's cronies were running the 
country.

: 5. William Jefferson Clinton for setting poor examples regarding
:    use of mind altering substances.

And you _didn't_ smoke dope between 1965-1975?  What planet were you on?

Well, let's see here... Federal Law requires me to be an Equal Opportunity
Offender, so I'll throw a few out of my own here. 

Bill Clinton for hiring the White House Chef from a McDonald's.

George Bush for not killing Saddam Hussein when he had the chance.

Ronald Reagan for his fuzzy memory.

Jimmy Carter for that goofy grin.

Gerald Ford for pardoning Nixon.

Richard Nixon for not unplugging that tape recorder.

Lyndon Johnson for just being Lyndon Johnson.

Jack Kennedy for screwing Marilyn Monroe when everybody else wanted to.

Dwight Eisenhower for those damn Interstate highways that snarl up traffic.

Harry S Truman for never choosing a real middle name.

Franklin Roosevelt for all those three-letter-abbreviations he foisted 
upon us.

Herbert Hoover because anybody named for a vacuum cleaner has to suck.

Warren Harding for letting his drunk friends rob the country blind and 
being a lousy poker player.

Teddy Roosevelt for that moustache.

Franklin Pierce for not doing jack crap.

Abe Lincoln for fighting so hard to keep the South in the country, then 
treating it like a foreign country after the Civil War.

George Washington for having a nonpartisan front,

Can you see how meaningless this whole "Worst President" bit is?  Public 
officials are such easy targets you can make any of them look bad.  I 
don't even think Rush Limbaugh would start some worthless tripe thread 
like this.

Soooooo.... just shut up and go to the polls tomorrow.
