LOL! Well, we all have the right to our own opinions, but you could at least try to make somewhat plausible arguments: 1. It's difficult to have a "depression" when unemployment is well below 10 percent. I don't know who gets to decide what an economic "golden age" is... would that be before or after Clinton signed NAFTA, which made it easier to move factories to Mexico? Ooooo, wait... that was a bad thing that Bill did... it doesn't count. Sorry, I forgot to adhere to the "double-standard" rule. 2. We invaded a country, Germany, in WWII, killed innocent people, and forced the German government to submit to other nations. And Bill Clinton sent us overseas to be a police force for the world in Kosovo. Please try again. 3. Worst president in history? I don't know, I think Carter was pretty bad. I can remember going to the unemployment office near the end of his presidency when inflation AND unemployment were both over 10 percent. Make Bush and Clinton seem like geniouses in comparison. Add to that the fact that Mr. Carter's family openly takes advantage of the federal law which limits farming of peanuts to "select" families... gee, I guess he's not such a grand fellow, either. 4. It isn't Bush that we need to respect, it's the office of the President. If every time we have a beef with our president we call for his head, then the idea of "We the People" as the government weakens. If I don't like your choice for president and I think he should be impeached, regardless what is decided by others, that doesn't give the right to spit in the face of others by calling for the arrest of that leader. I didn't like Jimmy Carter or Bill Clinton in a lot of ways, but I would never have advocated they be arrested by some town of morons who think they know what's best for the rest of us. 5. Lying to the American people, blah, blah, blah. Too bad the Congress voted for the war, including Hillary and other liberals, after seeing the same CIA evidence that Bush saw. Oooo, wait... I forgot... can't hold liberals to the same standard... sorry. I suggest doing a little research before tossing around words like "depression" without actually knowing what they mean.

So let's just stop all the blatant speculation by the majority of the American Public and the worldview of other people and say that Bush that is a better president than Clinton was!
Get the hell out of here, I'm a blue-collar working class American and despite all of Clintons short coming on paper. I can remember the dollar being strong when he was in office, college being moderately affordable without having to have parents to refinance their housing, and opening the classified section in various news paper and media outlest and *gasp* seeing a plethora of actual professional jobs, not tele-marketing, or custodian minium wage stinkers (not that there is a thing wrong with them), and a lot less empty luxuries.
I'm not going to argue who did what in office, but my general experiences. And as a working adult, from where I was standing the country was LOADS better when Clinton was in office. He actually talked about stuff like the economy vs. playing the "americans are scared of terrorist card"
I'm not saying that he didn't do bad things, and I'm aware of a lot of the secret shady dealings during his admin. But like I said I'm speaking about my personal experience under both regimes. And I know there are quite a few Americans in different walks of life that agree with me.
I mean just look at the change of the dollar from his 8 year tenure to now? Sure you can say a lot of the things he did put the demise of the dollars value into place, but uh when the man left office there was a surplus of money there, the most in our nations history that some how vanished in a year or two under the new presidency?
Wow, say what you will about Clinton, but if I could've voted for him 2 more terms he would've had my vote.
