Clinton was a far better President by almost every measure. Clinton didn't pretend to be a self-righteous man. Everyone knew he was pretty much a douchbag who slept with lots of women. GW had had at least a few affairs, but has not come clean. Clinton said he "didn't inhale". GW refuses to address his cocaine use. Clinton goes to church in order to seek forgiveness of his sins. GW goes to church as a political ploy to get votes from the Christian right.
Clinton went into Bosnia and got ride of Milosevic. He had a plan. Bush went into Iraq without listening to the people who really understood the region. He obviously has no plan (or clue)
We had the longest period of peacetime prosperity in the history of the US under Clinton. We have had one of the longest wars in the last 100 years under Bush.
All this, and the Republicans ran the entire show for the first 6 years of his Presidency. GW can blame no one for his failures except himself and his party.

Politicians are all liars in some way. I would choose Clinton over Bush anyday and I'm not an American.
Bush is a complete screw-up. As a Canadian I feel sorry for Americans having to live with this a$$ of a president.
Maybe if Bush was more worried about addressing the issues in his own country then worrying about whats going on in other countries bad things wouldn't keep happening to innocent people including Americans.

Do you no longer understand that the effects of a president are not felt for years after his end of workplace? the matters that Bush has had to handle is the end results of Clinton's screw up in workplace!

I live in Texas so just about everybody likes Bush, because he's from here. I personally dont like him at all. He has done no good at all if you ask me while he's been the President, no major changes like he should be doing, except for sending soldiers to kill people and soldiers getting killed too!! I was watching a show that was showing some vidoes you dont see on the news, and they showed him flicking off someone( maybe one of the camera men??), I personally think that that is not correct. We have someone STUPID running our Country!!
I'm going to give you a star because you dont like GB and it really is a good question!!

Clinton might not have been the best husband around, but there is no mistaking that he was a great President.

stats don't lie my friends. Clinton is obviously the better president. Bush Jr. is honestly the worst president ever in U.S. History.

Dude, we're in the middle of a war. What do you think Clinton would have done? Ya...he wouldn't have gone into Iraq. Just think of all the terrorism allowed to roam free today!

I keep telling people Clinton was a better president. Somehow being poor didn't seem as hard when he was president.
