Who exemplifies this definition more, George W. Bush or Bill Clinton?

Question

des·pot (dspt)

NOUN:

A ruler with absolute power.
A person who wields power oppressively; a tyrant.

Answer 1

GWB of course. But I believe Dick Cheney and Karl Rove wield alot more power than GWB.

Answer 2

George Bush.

Answer 3

neither

But Bush is apparently more power-hungery than Clinton. Not that I like Clinton, either.

Answer 4

Neither, in my opinion. We as the ppl of the US are not surpressed, that is in; concentration camps, p.o.w camps or in slave labor. G.W.B. is not a tryrant, other things, that I can't say, that maybe. As the American ppl under Bill Clintons office, we didn't see what was going on in the "world" as is.

So neither.

Answer 5

i wouldnt call either despots, but both unconstitutionally expanded presidential powers. you may remember bombing aspirin factories in iraq and the era of disappearing and reappearing fbi files (which was either a sign of abuse of power or the best magic tricks the whitehouse has ever seen).

Answer 6

I am so tired of insinuations like this. I didn't like either of them very much, but if you think either one even remotely resembles a despot, I can think of a few South American countries you should visit. Might clear things up for you on the whole 'facist' thing.

Answer 7

Boring! Come people, put some thought into these questions.

Answer 8

definetely Bush

Answer 9

I think the word you were looking for as a comparison between them is "Leader."

Hillary leads, Bill follows.

Bush leads, gets huge praise for it - then people tear him apart after he does what they beg him to do.


Go figure. lol

Answer 10

I have to say Bush.
