If the not-so-longshot comes in and civilization is destroyed in 28 years, then nobody is going to much care that George W. Bush was the worst person ever to take a seat behind the desk in the Oval Office.
Seems, by the way, that NASA was wrong: The odds of the asteroid Apophis hitting the Earth in 2036 is 1 in 450, not 1 in 45,000 as NASA thought. The error was caught by a 13 year old kid in Germany.
UPDATE: As Justin noted in the comments section, NASA maintains the kid is wrong. So the chances are indeed slim that Apophis will whack into the Earth and there will indeed likely be plenty of time for historians to conclude that George W. Bush has been the worst president in American history.
I feel much better.

Err, maybe not: NASA and ESA say they were right all along.
