Is GW Bush the worst president ever?

Interesting question with a complicated answer - things look so bad to all of us right now - and I believe it will actually be the NEXT president who determines GW's 'legacy.' Not that that will be a consideration for the winner in 12 days, but surely how Obama or McCain extricate us from the wars and economic collapse, and handle future US foreign and domestic policy will determine not only how they are assessed, but how history views GW as well.

As a free-thinking American weighing all the options, it amazes me how people can put the blame for current conditions on one person, or even an administration. Our legislative branch has the lowest approval rating in history - now in the teens significantly below that of Bush - and while we can debate the Iraq war until the end of time and will never know the true details, the current economic collapse can be fairly placed on the Capitol steps and Wall Street, with some concomitant blame shared by the executive branch. It appears to me there are many more Democrats benefitting from the debacle, from special considerations to tens-to-hundreds of millions of dollars and so far no indictments...and I am not convinced either presidential candidate will pursue the culprits who have raped our institutions and destroyed our financial infrastructure - and who among us has time to be an activist and organize to push an agenda against the thieves? They ALL make sure we are so busy scrambling to pay for gasoline and heath care that we don't have time to rebel! ...and that won't change regardless of who is victorious on November fourth...
