Bill Clinton was the worst US President ever.

Bush- No Child Left Behind, democracy to Iraq, Afghanistan, relations w/ N. Korea, Chinese expansion, DHS, no attacks on US soil since 9/11, called the housing crisis in 2003, etc. Not bad to me. A lot of stuff is not credited to him b/c of the pansy liberal media and kids who want it now and cry when they can't afford an extra 50c for gas. Ever heard of the Greatest Generation? People have it so easy now. This current "crisis" is nowhere near the level of the G.D. So Bush may have made some mistakes but history will judge. Everyone else cam just hope for "miraculous" change...

 

 Ironic that someone with a Reagan avatar would praise No Child Left Behind and the PATRIOT Act.

In America we created at the local level and administered at the local level for many years the greatest public school system in the world. Now through something called federal aid to education, we have something called federal interference, and education has been the loser. Quality has declined as federal intervention has increased. -Ronald Reagan

You and I are told increasingly that we have to choose between a left or right, but I would like to suggest that there is no such thing as a left or right. There is only an up or down — up to a man's age-old dream; the ultimate in individual freedom consistent with law and order — or down to the ant heap totalitarianism, and regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who would trade our freedom for security have embarked on this downward course. -Ronald Reagan

 

I prefer the closing of the DOE to save costs.  Education is best done at the local level, however when it comes to NCLB, the have been several key accomplishments such as raising the standards of schools, increasing minority test scores, as well as math and science.  The Patriot Act is essential for todays age.  Of course ECHELON could solely be utilized but that opens another can of worms.
