Your bias is only too obvious via the wording you used.

Bush is far more dishonest and you would know that if you bothered to read the Downing Street Memos that have been posted here previously. Moreover, far more Americans have died because of terrorism under Bush. On top of all that 4,000 soldiers have been killed because of his lies. Had you also only bothered to read my repeated posts on the 9/11 Commission Report you would have seen that Clinton took security far more seriously than did Bush. That is why 9/11 happened under his watch.

All this has been discussed previously and thoroughly documented so I won't bother posting any further data to support my words.

Bill Clinton had an affair with Monica Luwinski, a very stupid thing to do, how many people
did it hurt. Three, four including him and gave the republicans fodder to take him to the cleaners, he played right into their hands, BUT the american people remained alive and other than a few laughs, and some disgust, they continued their lives unharmed.

George Bush attacked Iraq for 'no' reason, how many people did that hurt?, well, about 4 thousand americans, dead, many many thousands maimed and many will never be the same
for the rest of their lives.
The number of Iraqis killed and injured is to numerous to even guess, hundreds of thousands.
The country is in debt so far over their heads, their standard of living is sinking, and the
economy is suffering badly.

Need I say more!!!!!
The billions and billions that have been spent on the war is totally unbelievable and
in my opinion, criminal, he is ruining his country .
