Scandal champ Mr. Bush vs Mr Clinton who wins ??

Question

i am only 22 so i did not pay alot of attention to politics while clinton was pres. but from what i remember there where less than bush
from what i know clinton scandals include monica and a few bad pardons
but with bush it seams to be one scandel after another
is this just because i pay more attention now or are there actualy more?
do all the scandals just destract the people from the prevous one?

in regard to "what bush scandals" i add i am not just talking about sexual scandals

an example of bush scandel would be iraq having nukes or al qaida conectionds to iraq

Answer 1

NO, there is pretty much more and more scandals everyday with Bush.

Answer 2

I'm 16, and I remember, do you know why Clinton didn't get the spotlight? He's a Democrat. What has Bush done. Nothing but fight for our freedom. You didn't actually name a "scandal" with Bush. You might want to include that next time you try to make an argument, hey you might've just learned something from someone who's only 16.

Arguments are nothing without details, and facts

Answer 3

i love the clinton supporters who say all he did was "have a little sex". he cheated on his wife, while he was the president of the united states. he should be held to a little higher standard i would hope. im sure thats what parents want to hear when they tell their kids they can be anything, to want to grow up to be a president exactly like clinton so they can cheat on their wife. if i remember correctly, if bush didnt get enough votes, he wouldnt have been able to even follow through with the iraq vote. libs can thank hillary for her vote of confidence in bush with that one........ look at the above list by that one guy, he pretty much says it all. clinton had so many scandals, so many terrorist attacks during his time, and 9/11 plans were already in the works, yet he did nothing to stop it, but bush gets full blame. definite lib tactic, blame others for your problems, because you definitely didnt do anything wrong..........

Answer 4

I'm an independent, I think the Patriot act and all the contradictions regarding Iraq...have resulted in a whole new standard.
What Clinton did was horrible, until we found out how bad it can really be.
And in writing the sentence above, I suddenly recalled the commercials made to look like a news broadcast ... social security, medicare or something? It was a big deal at the time.

Answer 5

It's a good thing for the "conservatives" that Bill Clinton was president for 8 years. I think he might be the best thing that ever happened to them. Otherwise, who would they have to blame all the nation's problems on? They'd sound kind of stupid still blaming Jimmy Carter 30 years later. That damn Lyndon Johnson!!!


Clinton by a landslide. Just a few links
I love it how neocons demand credible sources for any obvious claim about Bush, but then they give us links like these to back their arguments. It's not that neocons are against conspiracy theories, they just believe only the ones the ones involving Dems. I'd bet if Bill Clinton was president on 9/11, they'd be looking really hard at all the evidence of an inside job, which is much more overwhelming than any Vince Foster conspiracies. (Just for the record, I wouldn't be surprised if they did have something to do with his death.)

Answer 6

the irony of this is that NO Republican or Conservative ever talks about that lawsuit filed against Bush in Texas while he was the sitting President in 2001. By the way, the woman that filed that lawsuit is dead. An "apparent" suicide. Funny how the Liberal Media barely reported on it. I think that case alone with the "alleged" suicide trumps anything by Clinton as far as scandals go.

Answer 7

Clinton by far

Here's his rap sheet,

William Jefferson Clinton- Impeached by the House of Representatives over allegations of perjury and obstruction of justice, but acquitted by the Senate. Scandals include Whitewater - Travelgate Gennifer Flowersgate - Filegate - Vince Fostergate - Whitewater Billing Recordsgate - Paula Jonesgate- Lincoln Bedroomgate - Donations from Convicted Drug and Weapons Dealersgate - Lippogate - Chinagate - The Lewinsky Affair - Perjury and Jobs for Lewinskygate - Kathleen Willeygate - Web Hubbell Prison Phone Callgate - Selling Military Technology to the Chinesegate - Jaunita Broaddrick Gate - Lootergate - Pardongate

Terror attacks on Bill's watch
93 WTC
96 Khobar Towers 19 Airman dead 300 wounded
98 2 U.S. Embassy Bombings 5,000 wounded
98 Refused to take Bin Laden into custody
99 Refused to take Bin Laden into custody
2000 U.S.S. Cole Bombing
2001 9-11 took 6 YEARS TO PLAN

Also Clinton benifited from the DOT COM TECH STOCK BOOM that even Jimmy Carter couldn't have screwed up,

Now the Anit-Bush haters will say Bush, but facts are facts George Walker Bush has not commited or violated any laws as president of the United States, they have opinion, but NO HARD EVIDENCE OR FACTS TO BACK THERE CAUSE.

Answer 8

To make an accurate assessment, you would have to give the Democrats a $70 million blank check and 6 years to fish. That's what the republicans had to use to find out about a ********.

Very few politicians could withstand that type of partisan witch hunt and come out as favorably as Clinton did.

Bush would end up in prison for the rest of his life if subjected to that same level of scrutiny.

Also the media sang the republican party tune and covered all their unproven allegations involving Clinton 24/7. They have largely given Little Georgie a free pass.

Answer 9

Bush hasn't had any scandals. What are you referring to? When the Clintons were in the Whitehouse, women were popping up left and right claiming that Bill had had sexual relations with him. People who would have spoken up about things the Clintons didn't want to get out ended up dead. It's true, you can look it up. I can't believe people even remotely trust either of them.

Answer 10

I think it isn't one scandal after another as much as it's that a person pays more attention to them b/c there are "more of them" b/c the media is more attuned to finding and circulating genuine scandals and also "scandals" b/c it's a mainstream conservative Republican as president and as such it's somebody who runs against who they'd like to have as president. If Clinton had been a Republican there's no end to what would've been found against him.

Answer 11

There's no comparison ... Clinton lied under oath ...

The dems just cant sit still since there have been ZERO scandals in the White House for the past 7 years.
