>> How can you say he made the US safer when 9-11 happened on his watch?

9/11 would never have happened if Clinton had been on top of things.

Have you forgotten that AQ declared war on the USA with the first WTC bombing? That Clinton mishandled it for 8 years by treating it as a crime rather than a war? That Bush has changed that so that we are treating terrorism as a war rather than as a lot of common criminals?

The world is safer because AQ is, by comparison, incapacitated. And because in Iraq, instead of a bitter enemy, we now have an ally and will have going forward. And frankly, NK is a better situation than Bush inherited as well. Libya is now out of the picture, and Iran is threatening, but basically, that is something that would have happened regardless of who was in office.

Who cares if he is hated? He did "job one", protecting the US from attack, very well....

Don't even try to compare Clinton with Bush worldwide.....it's a rout
No kidding. President Bush is respected and Clinton is a buffoon.
