why richard nixon so hated ?

[k-onmmunist]

Because he was twisted freak who had no business having ready accesss to nuclear weapons. Read Gully's thread, the quotes therein speak for themselves.

On a related note, it's horrifying that Nixon has been lionized by some on the left as 'the last liberal President'.

To be fair, he pretty much was.

And that's a bad reflection on everyone.
