Reply #13: It's like ranking favorite hemorrhoids

[Zomby Woof]

Or whether I would prefer a boil on my ass or inside my nostril.

Eisenhower is easy enough to rank as the least objectionable, if only for enforcing 'Brown vs. Board'. But really, this is like picking a favorite strain of the Plague.

Eisenhower (see above)
Taft (perhaps the most principled one on this list, I could rank him interchangably with Ike)
Nixon (It's a sad commentary on the last 10 Republican presidents that not even Watergate or bombing Cambodia ranks him lower, but China, Soviet detente, and the EPA make him look moderate by today's standards)
Coolidge (a rat smart enough to jump ship before the 1928 election, as if he knew the country was doomed)
Bush I (President Nero II - fiddled with Iraq while Rome burned, but the damage was halfway reparable under his successor. Still a criminal fuck though)
Hoover (President Nero I actually made some half-assed attempts to deal with the collapse, but couldn't overcome his ideological dogma sufficiently to do so)
Ford (demoted from a potentially higher slot because he employed Rumsfeld and Cheney in high-ranking positions before any other president)
Harding (only one valid contribution to the office: he was the first president to submit a budget to Congress, a precedent unbroken since his troubled tenure)
Reagan (in the same manner my first two choices are interchangable, likewise are my bottom two)
Bush II (deserves to lick the walls of a septic tank hooked up to the pneumonia ward of a neglected VA hospital)
