The most despised "president" ever
Paul Slansky, the HuffPo:

The tone is, of course, set at the top - or, to put it less loftily, the fish rots from the head. Just as Richard M. Nixon's innate deviousness defined and destroyed his presidency, so is George W. Bush's innate cruelty - and the complementary vindictiveness of Cheney, Gonzales and Rove - defining and destroying his. That haunted, desperate look on Bush's face Tuesday evening as he truculently announced his plans to hunker down and fight any subpoenas was the spitting image of his fellow Constitution-trasher Nixon's sweaty mug during the last months of his presidency. It has long been apparent that Bush learned no lessons from Viet Nam, so it's hardly surprising to see that he also learned nothing from Watergate.

His every public appearance from here on holds the potential for the kind of barking-mad meltdown that would lead his obituary.
Please please please please please!

I know the right defile me for being mean, but I have been hoping for the mental breakdown on live camera for a couple of years now. I'll take either Bush or Cheney, but Cheney seems a little more in control of his emotional detachment.

Oh I will throw a party when it happens and play the video on continuous loop and how we'll laugh and laugh!
