Yes.
Clinton.
Are you better off today than you were 6 years ago?!

1)Under President Clinton's leadership, almost 6 million new jobs were created in the first two years of his Administration -- an average of 250,000 new jobs every month.

2)In 1994, the economy had the lowest combination of unemployment and inflation in 25 years.


3)As part of the 1993 Economic Plan, President Clinton cut taxes on 15 million low-income families and made tax cuts available to 90 percent of small businesses, while raising taxes on just 1.2 percent of the wealthiest taxpayers.

4)President Clinton signed into law the largest deficit reduction plan in history, resulting in over $600 billion in deficit reduction. The deficit is going down for 3 years in a row for the first time since Harry Truman was president.


5)The President signed into law the Brady Bill, which imposes a five-day waiting period on handgun purchases so that background checks can be done to help keep handguns away from criminals.

6)The President's Crime Bill will put 100,000 new police officers on the street. More than 1,200 communities have already received grants to hire 27,000 additional officers.


7)The Crime Bill also punishes criminals by expanding the number of offenses eligible for the death penalty and implementing the "three-strikes-and-you're-out" provision.


8)And, the Bill banned the manufacture of 19 specific types of deadly assault weapons, while simultaneously protecting hunters' rights by exempting over 650 hunting rifles.


9)President Clinton signed the Family and Medical Leave Act. The law, which covers over 42 million Americans, offers workers up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-guaranteed leave for child birth, adoption, or personal or family illness.


10)President Clinton expanded the Earned Income Tax Credit to cut the taxes of 15 million working families with incomes of $27,000 or less.

11)President Clinton granted waivers to 25 states -- half the nation -- providing for comprehensive welfare reform demonstrations.


12)President Clinton ordered the U.S. Justice Department to conduct the first-ever crackdown on deadbeat parents who refuse to accept financial responsibility for their own children.


13)Signed an Executive Order cracking down on federal employees who owe child support.


14)President Clinton has already cut the federal bureaucracy by more than 100,000 positions. Under the recommendations of the National Performance Review, the federal bureaucracy will be reduced by 272,000 -- its lowest level since the Kennedy Administration.

15)Under the President's Direct Student Loan program, students can borrow money directly from the government at a lower interest rate and with many flexible repayment options, including the option to repay with a percentage of their after-graduation salary. Taxpayers will save at least $4.3 billion over five years.


16)In 1994, over 20,000 AmeriCorps members tutored students, immunized children, reclaimed urban parks, and patrolled neighborhoods. In return, they earned $4,725 per year of service towards college tuition or job training.

How many Clintons have been president? Part of the reason we have so many problems today with terrorists is that we were attacked and he did nothing. Does doing nothing when terrorists attack really mean peace? I don't think so. It means being totally stupid.

Does no one remember the first attack on the World Trade centers, the one which Clinton made no response to? How about a couple terorist attacks on our soldiers? Where do they get you guys?

Today on Hannity, some guy called in and was lecturing how we should have Israel get out of Lebanon. Sean finally asked him if he knew any of the history of that area. He admitted not much, but didn't think it mattered.

Sean told him Israel was given that country in 1947, and he said, "No, I didn't know that." and went on with his stupidity.

So, one could guess he also does not know that those Hez have been attacking Israel and the US since 1948, huh?

I also bet most of you ignorant little kiddies also don't know that in 1983, the Hez you adore so much blew up a US Army barracks in Lebanon and killed almost 250 of our soldiers. We were there, trying to keep peace as you ignorant little kiddies think we should be doing.

Get a life.

I do, I liked Bill. Not all of that was true, there weren't wars exactly, but lots of "police actions", and there was terrible fighting across the world, just not here. There were many killings in Iraq, just not of or by American Soldiers, and flying was just as risky as always.

It is embarassing when George W. steps up to the podium and tells us that english (a language he barely speaks) should be the national language. Actually, it's a little embarrasing anytime he steps up to the podium...

There was peace in England and Europe before WWII while Adolph Hitler prepared his war machine, and everyone but Winston Churchill tried to appease him or just not get involved. The economy was good. Flying was safe. We enjoyed the 1936 olympic games in Berlin (though Hitler got bent out of shape when Jesse Owens, a black man, beat his German runners). No killings that anyone noticed, or cared to talk about. English ladies wore swastika jewelry. Then came 9/1/1939. Should I go on?

I miss him :Tears: The president can go **** whoever he wants as long as he's still keeping our country safe... more than Bush is doing. :sigh: I've never been so Anti-President before (of course, I haven't seen that many: Though, reading on Reagan, he's defintley NOT my favorite guy in the world. (yes, I'm young)

The real question is why can't people see past all the personal life crap? What was he supposed to do, tell the whole world that he was getting blow jobs? That would be a bit uncomfortable.

I do. Things were a lot more entertaining back then. By the way does anyone know if that was about the time Rumsfeld was on the cover of Time Magazine shaking hands with Saddam and smiling like he just sold Saddam a lame camel? Man, how far we have come.

We miss ya Bill!!!!!

whilst bill Clinton replaced into President, Islamic radicals attacked the united statesCole whilst in port in Yemen. In 1993, there replaced into an attempt to hold down the international commerce center towers. A bomb replaced into located contained in the underground parking factors, and did detonate. that's yet 2. there have been different incidents concerning Islamic extremists. two times for the time of Clinton's Presidency, united statesa. refused to take Usama bin weighted down from Saudi Arabia. Had Clinton taken bin weighted down into custody then, could the twin Towers be status right this moment? i don't be conscious of, and neither do you. whilst bill Clinton replaced into President, Timothy McVey committed his act of terror and destruction in Oklahoma city. As for the economic gadget, it did no longer develop until eventually after Republicans took administration of Congress, in 1995, (the third year of Clinton's first term). Clinton wanted well-being Care reform then. The Republicans stopped that, and made Clinton honor his marketing campaign delivers, alongside with Welfare Reform. consequently, the economic gadget grew. i be conscious of human beings liberals and Democrats do no longer decide directly to have faith Republicans saved Clinton's Presidency, yet historic certainty shows Clinton did in certainty win a 2d term because of the fact Republicans saved his first term. As for corrupt Presidents, verify out the present President. He has sunk to new lows in corruption. Even Richard Nixon' corruption looks minor by utilising assessment. Obama has, on 2 separate events has and does, brazenly defied Federal choose's rulings. there replaced into voter intimidation in Pennsylvania with the Black Panthers, and ACORN. Ans do no longer overlook approximately Rev. Wright, and bill Ayers, and a few of Obama's different buddies. One very final theory: Al Gore lost in 2000. recover from it! He ought to no longer even win his domicile state, Tennessee in 2000. If he had, he could have won the Electoral college vote, without triumphing Florida. (i replaced into working as a contractor for the Gore marketing campaign in Nashville, TN that evening. i be conscious of what i'm speaking approximately. i replaced into there.)

ahhh the memories....lets just stroll down memory lane shall we.

Clinton sold military secrets and technology to the Chinese, in exchange for political contributions from the Chinese to his campaign
What upset Hillary is not that Bill messed around. What upset her is that he got caught so many times.
Several books have documented that when Bill lost an election back in Arkansas, Hillary lashed out at one of the campaign managers by calling him "a f--kin Jew bastard."
Many of Bill's girlfriends were audited by the IRS. Practically every conservative organization that had an unkind word to say about the Clintons was audited by the IRS. For several years during Clinton's presidency, the IRS Commissioner was their buddy from their days at Yale, Margaret Milner Richardson. Bill Clinton's use of the IRS against his political enemies is so blatantly criminal, that even a grade-school student could pick it out.
Bill Clinton's goon squad consisted of a team of private investigators who systematically intimidated, harassed, and tried to discredit many of the women who alleged to have had sexual relationships (both wanted and unwanted) with Bill Clinton
I feel that Bill Clinton committed treason when he sold American military secrets to the Red Chinese government. I think that Bill Clinton is guilty of rape (of Juanita Broaddrick). I think that there are numerous examples of bribery committed by Bill and Hillary Clinton during the final round of Presidential pardons (especially the case of Marc Rich and his ex-wife Denise Rich.) Let's not forget the dozens of unexplained deaths surrounding Bill and Hillary Clinton - Ron Brown, Vince Foster, Mary Mahoney – for which there have been no proper investigations.
the Clintons have terribly hurt this country, by eliminating basic standards of morality to millions of American youth, and by leaving America vulnerable to the Al Qaeda and the attacks of 9-11. The Clintons despised the military and the police. Under Bill Clinton, terrorism was treated as a criminal matter, just like the pursuit of a bank robber. Clinton cared more about the civil rights of terrorists than the security of the American people. The Clinton
