You can not compare Bush and Clinton

Clinton sat in his office and took credit for a good economy he had nothing to do withj and ignored terrorism.

Bush has at least tried to do something about terrorism that grew to its present strength due to the inaction of the clinton cowards.

Most of the hatred aimed at the president is irrational and comes out of a blindly ideological rage rather than based on fact

Interesting how many people do not understand the economy and how it failed PRIOR to Bush and then came 9/11 which killed it- yet we have rebuilt and now it is slumping like it has ever 6-8 yrs for decades.
I love the person who said Bush did nothing about terrorism until after 9/11 even though that was a mere 8 MONTHS after he was sworn in and he still had CLinton holdovers because the senate was holding up his nominees. Clinton had 8 YEARS and according to Osama Bin Laden, he did nothing about terrorism- look up an interview Bin Laden did in 99 where he talks about America's lack of response to the attacks of the 1990s and how it showed him he could attack as he pleased

this is my thought about both of them first Clinton was a OK president but, if he tried a little more he would have been a great president. now for Bush he is not so good and i don't think he could improve if he even tried. he lies a lot and the war is a joke now needs to come to an end. been going on to long. but, we have know say so about it so why should we care anyways. we need a good president this coming election will we get it i don't think we will because times are coming to an end so it really don't seem to matter anyways.
we are killing ourselves and there is not a damn thing to stop it.

You have been listening to the left wing liberal Democrat bias news media in the U.S. Most of our newspapers in big cities, magazines like Time and Newsweek, and ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, and CNN are all heavily left wing liberal Democrat bias. All Presidents of the U.S. have their strengths and weaknesses. President Clinton was a good President and President Bush is a good President. What you are hearing are lies from our left wing liberal bias media. Don't believe it.

It's just bashing going on by people who choose to believe the media and all their garbage and false accusations that they spread..(people love gossip whether it's true or not.) Most of the time people doing the bashing are just kids that have no clue of what is really happening just want to hate because they heard it here and think thats how to sound intellegent..

I don't hate either person, they both made mistakes and they both did some good... But politics took over and the garbage is being played now.

Mr. Clinton rightfully has several problems with his administration, personally he was nothing short of a disaster as a human being, committing adultery on his wife multiple times and standing to ruin his family as such.

Furthermore, his implementation of laize-faire economic practices lead to various incidents of economic espionage on behalf of the Chinese, Israeli, French and Mexican governments.

An overly inattentive foreign policy may have somewhat emboldened terrorists and here again, Mr. Clinton did not do too much to bring the US towards sustainable practices with regard to food production or fuel consumption, however largely these broadly cover the concerns of the Clinton presidency.

I think President Bush is different from most of the other Presidents we have had in so far as his allegiance is clearly not towards the greater good of the people of the United States.

Mostly since about the 1960's the presidency has increasingly been more like an elected kingship or emperor, where presidents have tried to exert increasing amounts of power without having to respect the constitutional restrictions placed on their office.

Vice President Cheney and Mr. Bush openly and secretly not only argue for this point of view but are perfectly comfortable acting as if they were in fact above the laws of the constitution.

Excellent examples include

1. The "interpretation" of various laws with what are called "signing statements" - normally a ceremonial document, has been turned into a literal imperial writ, where Mr. Bush decides what laws he feels obligated to obey or enforce and which he does not. No previous president has ever used these statements to the extent or with the intent Mr. Bush has. This leads to the implementation of laws which are specifically counter to the constitutional protections , specifically the Patriot Act, eliminated both the 4th amendment as well as practically allowed for torture and detainment of both citizens and non-citizens. (Citizens may be reclassified as combatants when they have politically inconvenient views)

2. Mr. Bush has decided to implement ideological policies and not implement other policies which are counter to his previously existing ideological opinions. The concept of global warming was more or less a consensus / statistical reality for scientists in the mid 1990's.

However this would require concerted international action, and more importantly enforce rules and regulations upon the energy and automotive industries which are both heavy supporters of Mr. Bush, Global warming as a result will not be addressed by this president - ever.

3. Misuse of intelligence and abuse of our military, no president - other than perhaps Abraham Lincoln, has asked more of the soldiers in the field than Mr. Bush. His ability to talk tough but unwillingness to actually support the families and service members of the military has significantly weakened the military services of the United States from a personel perspective.

4. Furthermore, his abuse of intelligence in manipulating the congress and in choosing to fight a war which he wanted to fight , rather than the fight the war we needed to fight, will probably go down as the worst US military mis-allocation and waste of taxpayer dollars in the existence of our Republic.

5. Debt, finally the last and perhaps most permanent legacy of Mr. Bush has been the absolute negation of anything resembling responsibility towards the citizenry and the taxpayers, with specific regard to the national debt and the economic well-being of the nation.

So billionaires get immunity for collapsing or pumping up their stock-prices intentionally, and millions of workers go without health care and significantly decreasing standards of living.

I can only speak for myself and I don't HATE anyone. However, I do believe George W. Bush is the worst President the USA has ever had. He is a liar, corrupt, incompetent, arrogant and greedy and surrounds himself with people just like him.

Mainly because of the situation going on in Iraq. After 9/11 They manipulated people through fear to do what they wanted. The accusations that Iraq had WMDs were false. We are now in a war with no end in sight that was a complete choice by this president. Is this not obvious? I would prefer that my leaders tell me truth about why we are going 2 war. Also, I think its funny that if you bring this up you are called unpatriotic. No, I'm just not stupid.

The more I read about Clinton, the more I hate him too, but nobody surpasses Bush Jr's level of corruption.

In the US, we call it "Bush Derangement Syndrome".

Liberals in America hate everything, Bush is just their latest target.

They hate Christians, they hate their country in general, they hate the police, they hate accountibility. If you say anything to them, you're a liar until proven honest (but only by their standards).

But they're like zombies. They believe anything their favorite gossip television shows put out. It's as if Rosie O'Donnell has a download connection to their brains.

Very sad.

On the other hand, I invite you to read a book called "Lone Survivor". You'll find that our men and women in uniform are very fond of him, even those in the most dangerous jobs. Conservatives support the president because we know he's looking out for us. We consider him a very good and successful president.
