There is little to no doubt he will get it.
But does he deserve it?
Now, without even looking back for reference there are several many bad things Bush and his administration have done--P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act, Bush Doctrine, illegal wiretapping (related to the two aforementioned), running the economy to shit, a billion-plus-dollar-a-day war, taking advantage of a dumbass bailout plan to fill his and his "cronies" pockets, just to name a small fraction.
After all of this, plus the fact that most of the world now hates us/thinks we're a joke (which hurts almost as all of the above things), do you think Bush deserves this title?
I personally do. Now, if we simply look at his approval rating--lowest in United States since it was instated in the 1930's, I believe--and to see what he has done--failed economic plan, driven economy into ground (ok, not fair to blame Bush soley, also fault of Corporations taking advantage of the too-few regulations), failed to help the economic crisis, driven up gas prices followed by their plummeting prices, foreshadowing a possible crash of the market, wiretapping, illegal and unethical torture (Bush's possible "blanket pardon" almost proves it was illegal), war that was unnecesary in the first place, and frankly retarded by 2004 and now just beyond belief useless and harmful to both economy and the wellbeing of the common U.S. citizen, well I've mentioned enough I'd say though it isn't even half of his track record. Hs presidency is no doubt worse than Nixon's. There. I said it. At least Nixon only wiretapped the dems, and not the entire fucking country.
