Clinton's regulations are not "expensive", they were there to protect the country

One thing does not follow from the other.

As I said in my post, some of them were probably reasonable, or even desirable, but it doesn't change the fact that they are expensive. It might be a cost worth paying but its still a cost. And I don't think its reasonable to assert that the cost is worth it for all of Clinton's regulations.

Bush's atrocious lie that the Kyoto Treaty would destroy our economy

Did he say that? Can you give a link, or even an exact quote? My guess is you can't. He may have accurately said that it would be a burden on the economy, but "burden" is hardly the same thing as "destroy".

As for new jobs. Clinton didn't create them, but at least he didn't keep the job creation from happening.
