Bush is the best president since 1992. Bill Clinton was a failure, and his wife Hillary will be too

Not only is Bush the worst president since 1992, Bush is the worst president since 1792 (would fall in Washington's first term). Honestly, there's a very reasonable debate that Bush is the worst president ever. Compared to the legacy left by such notable failures as Buchanan, Pierce, and Harding Bush Jr. stacks up well in a race for the bottom. I will however, go ahead and argue the primary claim because it makes my job easier. --- Clinton is not the reason 9/11 happened. It is hard to calculate what-if scenarios but frankly I wonder what would have happened in 2001 if we had a competent president. Look back at the events over these last seven years and you can see the Bush junior for who he really is, a screw up. His failures in Iraq and Katrina are legendary. Reports as to the state of the intelligence agencies prior to 9/11 were that "the situation was flashing red" and "their hair was on fire". -- Clinton showed steadfast leadership when it came to the Millennium plot and the Bojinka plot. Clinton foiled terrorist plots and appointed terror people and listened to his advisers when they said things like a terrorist plot is being planned, and sleeper cells are in the country. http://en.wikipedia.org... http://en.wikipedia.org... Clinton, would have been at war with Afghanistan where Al Qaida was based in February of 2001, after the CIA and FBI agreed that Al Qaida was responsible for the attack on the Cole. I'm not saying that Bush let it happen on purpose or that he made it happen on purpose. I am suggesting that if you look back at how incompetent Bush actually is and toss away the rose color glasses with which he was viewed after 9/11 you actually need to ask yourself if somebody else could have done the job. If somebody else wouldn't have been on vacation while Osama bin Laden was determined to attack within the US. Secondly, Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11. Nothing at all. Iran also has NOTHING to do with 9/11. Clinton's mess? An unneeded war costing thousands of American lives and trillions of dollars lies firmly at the feet of Bush and the neocons who planned the invasion before 9/11. More than anything else this foolish idiotic war has destabilized the united states. It has caused our economy to sink and flounder, our respect in the world to vanish, and has caused *MORE* terrorism. We should leave as soon as possible. "[T]he majority of the American public are completely stupid." The majority of Americans can see the forest through the trees. They know when something is an utter disaster. The war is expensive and we'd be spending 0 dollars on it if we weren't fighting it. Are you actually deluded into thinking that people believe we will be given the 10 billion a week the war costs in flowing gold? I'd gather they figure we simply wouldn't be spending it. "What I have learned is the majority of the American public is dumb;" The majority of Americans have seen the light. Not agreeing with you is not the same as ignorance. In fact, if your understanding of world affairs is any sign, I'd tend to believe you have that backwards. When the English pulled troops out of some regions we find the violence goes down. Troops are a lightning rod for violence. Most of the insurgence are simply fighting against a local occupation and don't travel around. The longer we stay the more power the terrorist groups in the region get. ... The rest of your arguments go into insults and rants. ------------------ Bill Clinton paid down the debt. George Bush has spent trillions on worthless wars. Bill Clinton reformed welfare. George Bush gave a tax cut to the rich. Bill Clinton oversaw the largest economic expanse in the last 100 years. George Bush squandered it. There is little comparison. I suppose Bill Clinton did get a bit of oral sex, but far be it from me to assign that anything close to the category of "failure". After doing that well for the country... we should an office in charge of giving such perks. Bush has been a disaster and an absolute failure.
