What was so dishonest about ol' Bill Clinton?

Question

why do so many of you continue to harp and cry about Bill lying about getting a hummer from Monica? How do you have the nerve to bring up something so meaningless in the face of our current president who misled the american people to get us into this catastrophe in iraq?

tell me what tangible, real or lasting harm Bill's philandery and dishonesty did to the military, economy or reputation of america. and then let's start the list of what W's folly has done.

it's great to hurl accusations at bill and claim to know the workings of his heart, though all of that is meaningless and lacking both evidence and relevence.

judge the men by what they did, and what those actions caused or will continue to cause.

Answer 1

From an international perspective Bill Clinton was one of the greatest ambassadors the USA ever had.Everybody in the world loved the guy and the USA was held in high regard by just about everybody in the world. Im from Canada and when the republicans where spending tens of millions of dollars trying to impeach him because he got a "hummer" from Monica...I was thinking this is how they spend the taxpayers hard earned money!...aren't there more pressing problems in the world.The guy did his job well! Compared to Bush.. Clinton is a saint!!

Answer 2

The tangible damage to America was the backlash from Monicagate costing Al Gore a unanimous decision in the 2000 presidential elections. Without the scandal, Gore would have easily defeated Bush, based on many years of prosperity. Al Gore would have been a much better president than George Bush, and everybody knows it. So, basically, Bill Clinton gave America Geroge Bush Jr., and we all got shafted.

Answer 3

On a scale of a million to 40 3 with a million being as truthful by using fact the day is long and 40 3 being a very cheating individual; invoice Clinton expenditures someplace interior the previous due adolescents or early Nineteen Twenties. George W. Bush is 40 3.

Answer 4

While it is true that what Bill did or didn't do is irrelevant when evaluating what W. did or didn't do, it is still reasonable to compare the two. But, attacking Bush is NOT the way to defend Clinton. No matter what you think of Bush, Clinton is still a rapist, sexual molester, and sexual harasser of the first order.
Bill raised taxes the most that had ever been raised in history, but of course, the GDP was more than it had ever been before.
Basically, Bill and Hillary are crooks, dishonest and evil.
Bush is well meaning and devoted to the country. You are welcome to criticize Bush's policies, but you cannot in truth deny his intentions.

Answer 5

WJ Clinton had a long standing hatred of the military. He was pardoned by Jimmy Carter in 1977 for felony draft dodging. GW was only questioned in the media... He lied on National Television wagging a finger. I had my then 8yr old nephew watching and asking questions for weeks. Changed the definition and then lied during the investigation. Perjury & Obstruction of Justice. Made a sweet deal and had only a 6 yr law license suspention (up in 2006) plus had to agree to cease the Whitewater controversy & investigation... Sold out the USA to China. Supplied them and others with weapons. Yes, GW he gave some to Taiwan to be fair. He had the first Iraq War. Heard of the Persian Gulf War? Bombing midnight raids killing thousands of innocents? Bombing Sudan & Afghanistan?? Over 4,417 dead soldier's during peacetime?

That is just the tip of the iceberg. Please use Google and research the items mentioned. Thank you very much.
edit: There are numerous facts to be found. Thousands of newspapers and documents if you are willing to hear. How anyone can judge his heart? He's lied so many times how would we know. Seems the heart by pass led him to "Giving" but if you also check his foundation out carefully, it's a profit making venture. Remorseful? Doubtful. Just consider his actual record. Not the Media Matters fictional version. Thanks below also for some insight & links. I am hoping others will do some homework here.

Answer 6

It all comes down to the meaning of what "is", is.
He was as slippery a liar as a greased pole cat in a Teflon jumpsuit. His machine took out too mant people to count, and he gave away the technology store to China...now they have MIRVed missles, and he commited uncounted acts of sexual assault even in the Oval Office. Vince Foster comits "suicide" in the park across from the White House? A bullet hole in the right side of his head while being left-handed?
Need we say more? Whitewater ring a bell? Travelgate? Monica? And lest we forget, the $1,000 Hillery invested in Pork futures, and 3 weeks later they go to $98,000, for twenty minutes, just as Hillery desides to sell hers. Give me a freakin break, and you fools continue to idolize these criminals? Why?????
And now we're getting more scndals each week from his wife, and shes not even the nominee yet. I mean, chinese dishwashers that make 25 dollars a day contributing a thousand dollers to Hillerys campaign. and dozens of them too? Whose fooling Who?
I don't know about you, but I'm already sick of the travesty the Clintons continue to operate on this country.

Answer 7

Bill Clinton was a sociopath when it came to women which is why Americans question Hillary's motives for remaining married to him.

The military was ill-equipped to go to war in Iraq because of the cutbacks in manpower and funding during Clinton's tenure.

Clinton had his chance to take Osama into custody and blew it. He later called it "the biggest mistake of my presidency."

http://www.aim.org/publications/media_monitor/2002/01/23.html

He sold our national security to China for money to raise funding for his 1996 reelection campaign.

Tony Soprano had nothing on Clinton when it came to whacking his enemies.

Bill's heart attack wasn't from eating too many whoppers. Can you say cocaine?

Finally, if you say that Bush lied about WMD's and Iraq, then Clinton is a liar too. It was Clinton who first stated the need to oust Saddam and his WMD's.

He lied under oath. That's a big one.

He also told the US that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction (which I don't think was a lie, but you evidently do).
