Yes, and every mistake Clinton made is the first Bush's fault.
Every mistake the first Bush made is Regan's fault.
Every mistake Regan made is Carter's fault.
Every mistake Carter made is Ford's fault.
Every mistake Ford made is Nixon's Fault.
Nixon's mistakes were his own.

Not at all,there have been many mistakes that he has made,but he has also admitted he made mistakes and is trying to learn from SOME of them.Ie,the war,people were upset that he was staying the course,he listened and tried to change strategies and now he is getting flack for that.Just with the Haliburton and Cheney issue,Cheney gave up all of his ties to Haliburton when he was elected.Yes he still has stock in Haliburton,but Al Gore also has stock in Exxon..,so theres blame that can be placed on both sides.I dont like the way the Adminstration is handling its fiscal responsibilities,we need to quit the pork barrel spending,I dont like the way the Administration is handling the immigration issue at all.I voted for Clinton,both times.

No, they aren't. Maybe some early on, but after 6 years in office, he's had plenty of time to make his own mistakes. I think you may be interpreting the answers that point out the hypocritical nature of many liberal "finger-pointing" questions as being blame-shifting. It seems that so many liberals want to idolize Clinton and blame Bush for everything. Conservatives just want to point out that, if you want to blame rather than propose solutions, then there is plenty of blame to be spread over several presidencies.

Harry Truman had a sign on his desk that said THE BUCK STOPS HERE. If Bush had a similar sign it would say THE BUCK IS CLINTON'S FAULT or he would pass the buck to someone else. That is the way Bush has been even before being president. Spoild little rich kid.

The really rabid neocon extremists will tell you yes.
The fact is, you could say that for MAYBE the first year of a Presidency. You have about that long to blame the prior administration for your ineffectiveness at your job. But after that, it's time to suck it up and become your own President and stop defining yourself by what your predecessor did. After the first year, it becomes less about what the last guy did and more about what you're not doing.

Absolutely not, but on the other hand, why do so many refuse to omit the mistakes and crimes that Bill Clinton committed. I just love the way you guys claim that Clinton's actions/inactions didn't result in anyone being hurt when nothing could be farther from the truth.

Most people on here blame Clinton for allowing terrorism to thrive and never challenging it. All Clinton really did to fight terrorism was to launch cruise missiles at camps, which were, for the most part, unsuccessful.

No, Bush has undone all progesses that were made under the Clinton Admin. The Neo-Con's twist this into saying that Bill F**ked it up.
