2. Not sure how many died when white Christian terrorists struck in
Oklahoma but it was way too many. :shrug: I blame that one directly on the hate fueled by the GOP through the likes of Rush and Boortz and Savage and Coulter and well you get the point.

16. Agree with you there.
Clinton admitted later that he screwed that one up.

7. We carpetbombed in the former Yugoslavia when he was President.
I'll bet that killed 1000+ people.

plus he continued the sanctions on Iraq which resulted in the deaths of many Iraqi's, many children, which Madaleine ALbright claimed on 60 minutes, was "worth it" when asked. :eyes:

22. Yep, yep
I don't get why everyone always has to play the defense side of the 'blame clinton for everything under the sun' game. What does it matter? They're going to keep making ridiculous remarks about the man for ages to come, because their warped sense of morality still can't handle the fact he was president. We shouldn't fall into the bullshit partisan game - what matters now is that bush is slowly destroying the country and the world. Making references to Clinton just allows them to play the game they love so much.

23. We bombed them on Easter in their churches no less.
I still have a hard time with that one. Yes, at least a thousand were killed, according to the numbers I've heard.

8. monica and whitewhiter caused 9/11
if Clinton's time was not all used up defending himself and
being weakened by that scurrilous witch hunt odds are he would
have gotten bin Laden and Gore would have won by an even bigger
margin. And Al would not have blown off the August 6th 2001 PDB.

11. when Monica gave him the blowjob
that caused 50 million Murkans to lose their health insurance

it also caused 20% of the middle class to slide into poverty as 10 million of them lost their jobs

it also caused 9-11

and the war in Iraq

and FEMA's nonresponse to Katrina

and the anthrax attacks and the failed anthrax noninvestigation

12. There should a death count website that traces EVERYTHING involved with *
Number of executions when he was Texas Governor.

Number of suicides/homicides resulting from economic woes (e.g. executives being laid off due to job outsourcing)

Number of suicides/homicides resulting from stress of 2004 Election

Number of deaths resulting from lack of insurance or laws prohibiting going abroad for cheaper meds.

'Not fair,' you say? You want fair? Go to a carnival.

13. I'm sure Falwell, Scaife, Jackson, et al., would argue that he personally
murdered way more than that.

15. I agree with you...
...but I believe in looking at the OPs statement, they were referring to "domestic" deaths. Not that deaths in other countries don't matter, but that a US Presidents FIRST priority is to ensure the safety and security of US citizens first and foremost, and Bush has failed, repeatedly.

Rwanda and "the former Yugoslavia" were horrors and tragedies of the worst order, but the case can, and is often, argued that these were not domestic events...

18. Yes, but one of those was due to
inaction, and the other was an intervention in a slaughter that was already going on. Interestingly, if Clinton had intervened in Rwanda he'd be blamed for the thousands of deaths the intervention caused, and if hadn't intervened in Serbia et al, he would have been blamed for the tens of thousands of deaths there.

Just an analysis, not a judgement.

19. Rwanda. He and Albright saboutaged efforts to stop the massacre.
Almost a million dead, and because of their policies, the slaughter continues in the Congo.
