You brought up the fact that it was only the first 200 days. He has not done crap afterwards either! Also, last I checked the first 100 days were crucial to a new presidency. When did it become 200?

You are refering to the 300000 jobs supposedly created in the last quarter? Is that supposed to be an achievment? How many got lost in the same time frame because the unemployment rate still climbed by .1 %!

Clinton did what he did and surely carries part of the blame. However, he was able to do so (for some time) without restricting everyones civic liberties. It was being mentioned that Clinton put out a kill order for Bin Laden, however stipulated that no "colletoral damage" can be accepted and hence it wasn't done. Right now the US has violated a slue of human rights, killed a crapload of civillians (statistics on those are not being kept by this administration) in 2 countries and hasn't captured or killed Bin-Laden yet!

So enlighten me where Clinton failed compared to what Bush accomplished?
