Re: nuclear proliferation and Bosnia

Pretty much an abysmal situation. Clinton didn't act in Bosnia until a Republican Congress came in 1995 and supported the lifting of the U.N. ban on arming the Muslims in Bosnia.

Re: cutting of government spending and balanced budgets, you should look at the following links. Clinton fought the balanced budget, and as in the current budget battle, he threatens to shut down the government when he can't get his pork barrel spending programs for himself and his congressional democrats.

Re: the economy

The credit for the economy and the jobs created goes to the private businesses and the Fed, not the politicians. The politicians were the ones who were against the moves by corporations to become more efficient. Clinton is at best an absentee leader. His grand schemes at health care and child care would have been disasters along the lines of the other entitlement programs.

"Men who don't learn from the past repeat the same mistakes"

Clinton has a history of blaming other people for his mistakes and trying to take credit for other people's successes.
