I'd choose Clinton over bush and here's why.
Clinton is only guilty of lying about getting a ******** from a GOP hooker.
While bush is busy stealing from us and those in Iraq, sort of like what the nazi's did to the Jews and the Germans.
Though you are probably just as greedy and can't see.
In answer to your points of view:
1: bush's faith is so strong he had to become a reborn christian to claim that status.
2: bush wouldn't give you the truth if his life depended on it, he'd plead the fifth or since you believe so strongly he'd probably sell you a dried up oil well..
3: Yes he'd serve with as much passion as he could fit in his overseas accounts, he ducked out of the service and wasn't even in a time of war, what a retard.
If only the rest of our military could sellect where they want to serve I wonder how many would be in Iraq.
4: Well he might care about his family though I'm sorry for his wife, a man who is in bed by nine leaving her to the strip clubs and stuffing money down young mens jocks can't be all good.
Well at least we know where some of our tax dollars are going anyway and I'm sure the stripers are glad of it.
5: He's such a strong leader and team player that the GOP hates him and most of his voters as well though there are a few who just can't admit he's worthless.

I'm going to go with Clinton on this one.
1. Blind faith in a god, doesn't fix anything it simply gives him something hide behind or podium to stand from to make statements that probably aren't true but should be believed because his God is the inside track on balancing the budget. I'm pretty sure one of the angels does God's taxes.
2. He has lied more in his 8 years then most of us will in our whole lives. The only difference is that we lived to our parents whether we tried smoking cigarettes, he lied about why we smoked people with bombs.
3. Passion is probably not the right term over-zealousness might be a little more appropriate.
4. Bush cares about his family, actually I might give you this one I don't know if he does or doesn't so I'll believe you on this one.
5. Bush is strong leader where he is leading us is to our demise but his passion on killing us all slowly through poverty, war, and joblessness is certainly a new way to lead. As far as him being a team player god does he look great with Dick Cheney's claw like hand up his butt.
You take your Bush, and I'll stick with Clinton, he wasn't a great president but he was certainly better than Bush.

I am curious since you bring the religion thing up. Bush doesn't go to church and has no real religious other than to support causes in his political realm. But knowing people that know his family personally, they are not very religious people at all.
However Bill Clinton is a Southern Baptist and has donated millions of his own money to the Baptist and Pentecostals. He also prayed regularly.
So I find it funny that the non-religious man is considered religious by party affiliation and the religious man is not considered religious because of his affiliation.
No president is without fault for sure. Clinton had an affair, maybe more than one.
But if you compare the two Clinton left office with a budgetary surplus and was actively going after Bin Laden. Clinton had even closed down a major chemical weapons facility of Bin Laden and had him on the run.
Bush has been in the middle of so many scandals it is incredible. 1980's savings and loan failure he caused that cost tax payers millions. The Enron electricity theft occurred after Bush deregulated electricity in the West. On and on and on.
Need to read up on your history and make a more objective evaluation.

1. Strong faith in God? Do you remember the 10 Commandments? If he had strong faith he would not break most of the commandments. He has faith in God talking to him so the religious "Nuts" will vote for him.
(That is Bush's terminology, Not mine.)
2. Speak the Truth? This man has been caught in more lies than any President since Nixon! Sure Clinton lied about sleeping around on his wife , but we should not have been asking him about it in the first place! It is none of our business. As long as it is not illegal, it does not concern us.
3. Serve the public? Is that why he has handed out political positions to unqualified candidates like handing out candy at Halloween? Positions that hurt many of our citizens because there was no one that knew what they were doing in them!
Is that why they give out No-Bid contracts which could have been granted to companies that would charge
"We the People" less money and do a better job.
Is that why, when the buddies that got these "No-Bid contracts did not perform their duties under the terms of the contract, Bush did NOTHING about it? He did not even drop Halliburton a note saying Hey guys why did you bill us for 100,000 meals when you only provided 20,000?
4. Bush cares about his family. This may be true although if he really cared he would stop his two daughters from becoming alcoholics as he was. They are heading that way.
5. Strong Leader? Lets see..... Is that why he looked like a deer in the headlight when notified as to the attacks on 9/11?
Is that why he took the goodwill of the world after 9/11 and turned it into hatred for the US by most the countries.
Is that why he took the largest surplus that any President had at the beginning of his Presidency and turned it into the largest deficit we have ever had?
Is that why,since Bush declared "Mission Accomplished" : 3,213 more of our soldiers have died,
24,370 more of our soldiers have been wounded,
847 more civilian US contractors have been killed,
156 more journalists and media assistants have been killed,
The number of Sunni insurgents has increased from less than 5,000 to 70,000,
He has Cost "We the People" 342 Billion more than what was spent when Bush declared "Mission Accomplished.
As to being a team player, surely you jest. Bush has not negotiated anything since taking office. He has attacked anyone who disagrees with him in any way including any member of his own administration. His way of ruling is "My way or the Highway". When the GOP controlled both houses. They just let him and Cheney do whatever they wanted. Now that the Democrats control Congress, he just vetoes anything they pass. He does not care who it would help. If it is not exactly as he wanted it, or (in the case of medical coverage for the children) something he does not want at all because it is not beneficial to either him or his buddies, he just vetoes it.
My Bible says you should help the poor, the sick and the children. Bush helps none of them.
Perhaps you have a different Bible than I do But as far as I can tell Bush has been the President that is the furthest removed from the teachings of the Bible!
Let us not forget justifying torturing humans,
ANY humans being tortured is wrong!
Wrong under the Geneva Convention,
Wrong under our Constitution,and
Wrong under the teachings of the bible.
One of the reasons there is a separation of church and state is because of believers who chose not to see the truth because they want to believe the lies only because someone tells them that their religion is right.
There is a reason they call it "Blind Faith"
Try reading other news sources other than FOX.
Read all different kinds of news sources.
Somewhere in between all their statements lies the truth. But you shall not find the truth unless you open your eyes and look at information from all sources.
You need to look for a good example of your faith, Bush is about as far away from a good example for Christianity as you can get.
Just because you say you are a "Born Again Christian" and you can be forgiven all your sins, does not mean you can go out and lie, cheat, steal and do everything the Bible tells you you should not do, the next week,so you can be forgiven on Sunday and then do it all over again.
That is what Bush does.
He is a bad example of a "Good Christian"
So, Clinton lied because he sinned by sleeping around on his wife.
And due to the way the question was actually phrased, there is a question as to whether that was actually a lie. This is why he was not impeached. But although technically he did not lie, his intent was to cover up his affair. So he did make a mistake and he should not have done so. But if Senator Clinton can forgive him,
Then she is trying to save her family and that is between the two of them.
It is none of our business.
But.... It had nothing to do with running this country, or any other duty of the President.
Bush's lies have beenin the past, and are now solely to obviscate the truth from the voters and hide the actions of an Administration that is more corrupt than any Administration ever!

Clinton without a doubt. We knew he was a womanizer no secret there, he understood a dollar and the middle class and didn't bankrupt the country.
What truth? Bush lied about WMD's, Iraq, global warming and tax breaks for the rich. He's constantly on vacation while our troops are sweating and getting killed.
Bush needs to put that faith to use and pray for a brain.
I guess his extended family are his rich pals.
Strong leader my butt. He's led us down the path to ignorance, bankruptcy and damn near destruction by creating terrorists where none existed: See Iraq.
I bet if you looked around you'll find some dirt on the jerk.
Just have to get past Mon and Dad is all.
The best thing that clown can do is leave. Hopefully in the end his grave won't be violated.

Definitely Bill Clinton. He was a diplomat and knew how to practice the fine art of diplomacy. Bush is just a "good old boy" from the sticks and his idea of diplomacy is to pat someone on the back and say "howdy." What a clown. No wonder we've lost most of our friends in the world.

bush can be the leader of our Bible Study Group, like the BTK (the serial murderer from Wichita)was the beloved president of his church, and the pedophile Foley was designing and pushing the senate predetor laws while he slept with underaged boys and like the head of the evangelical right (Haggard) was, as he not only was committing adultry and betraying his wife, but he was doing it with male prostitutes when he wsn't on the podium condeming homosexuals to damnation.
You sound so naiive and innocent. i think you really do believe these people when they're thumping the bible don't you?
Just know one thing son... I admire your convictions to God, but you must learn to open your eyes and see that just because someone is preaching God, doesn't make them a good person. A good person MUST be judged by his rightous actions, not just the cloak of rightousness.

Man, you are SO off base you are playing cricket. Bush lies every time he opens his mouth. He hides behind executive privilege and he is so out of it he thinks he hears God. Clinton may have been a little slimy but no one died. And public service means just that, serving the public not serving the oil companies, neo-cons, and way out Christian radicals.

You are absolutely insane or brain dead.
Bush is a hypocrite. Clinton lied about the definition of sex and no one died. Bush knowlingly lied about threats to our country and 3 thousand americans dead and still counting.
Bush says whatever his handlers tell him to say. I dont know what hes done for the public, but Halliburton has made a fortune selling inferior equipment to our soldiers.
Some people just live in a major dream world. It pains me to think that your vote will cancel out the vote of someone with real intelligence.

The only reason Bush has not been caught lying is because he hides behind Executive Priviledge. Bush has completely lost sight of the public...if you can't see that, you are looking at his presidency through rose-colored glasses. You have got to be kidding with the "team player" statement.
