Clinton vs Reagan
Clinton came into office wanting to build "a bridge to the future."
Reagan came into office wanting to build a bridge to the past.

Clinton thought America could be better.
Reagan asked America to be the same.

Clinton wanted government to do more for people with less.
Reagan wanted government to do less for people with less.

Clinton wanted America to join the world of nations with mutual respect for the culture and dreams of others.
Reagan wanted America to thumb its nose at the world of nations and respect only those whose culture was like America's.

Clinton appealed to the best of America.
Reagan appealed to the very worst of America.

Clinton is alive, well, and continuing to serve the people of the world.
Reagan is dead.

1. Which lie is worse?
Clinton lied about consensual sex. The Republicans impeached him.

Reagan lied about dealing with terrorists and selling weapons to a sworn terrorist enemy. He lied about funneling money to his SouthAmerican death squads. The Republicans want to put this traitor on our money and on Mt. Rushmore.

Which lie was worse and more harmful to our nation?

2. Oral sex vs. Murder and mayhem
I'd love to see Freeper heads explode as they compared the two.

3. Depends on whther you are asking a Dem or a sex-starved Republican
Dems get plenty of sex and have no problem with others getting it. Republicans, on the other hand....have closet sex and are largely unfulfilled. Even Rush acknowledged that the "arousal factor" was part of the reason Clinton was popular.

5. I have always wondered....
In what world is it OK to lie to congress about affairs of state, but a huge crime to lie about sex?

I am still just confused by that.

My brother was rabid during the Clinton impeachment, so sure that the man would be sent out of office for getting a BJ.

Now, he says that Reagan should be on Mt. Rushmore and ALL of our currency to show what a "great man" he was. He thinks that W will be known as the second-greatest president ever (after the blessed RR).

So, my question is: are these people really that dumb? Or is it some form of mass delusion?

Clinton is a great man. I admire him and know that as President, he worked to make a better world for all of us.

When Reagan was President, he worked to make the world look like a B Movie.

W Works to make a better world for large corporate interests.....

And still people say they will vote for him....people who he actively works to screw over.

I just don't get it. What kind of a world will my child en inherit?
