I think that Tricky Dick wasn't as bad as Reagan, in that at least Nixon did finally pull the troops out of Vietnam and he was supportive of some important environmental legislation. However, Nixon, like Reagan, stirred up trouble in Latin America and surrounded himself with crooks. And their respective attorneys-general (John Mitchell and Edwin Meese) were the antipathy of the positions they held. However, Nixon's Interior secretary, Walter Hickel, was certainly better than James Watt.

Of course, with bu$h Jr, just about everything he touched turned to crap.
