Let me start of by stating that i dont have much of a political inclination, i sometimes lean towards left and sometimes towards right, but lately,some Clinton fans are getting on my nerves when they blame every single thing wrong in this world on Dubya. The worst was last saturday at a local pub when this girl went on a rant about how she thinks Bill Clinton is/was 'the GREATEST american president EVER'!
Now, i know George W Bush did a lot of questionable things, but Bill Clinton the greatest ever? I mean, where does this put the founding fathers? Lincoln? Ted Roosevelt? FDR? Truman/Eisenhower/Raegan? This was her argument :
1) Bill Clinton created 22 million jobs (??).
2) There were no wars.
3)People kept their jobs,homes,cars.
4)There was no economic crisis/recession.
And that somehow makes him the greatest ever. Now i dont know a whole lot about politics, but that somehow seemed absurd to me,a lot of folks on this forum are well versed in politics and economic policies,i just want to hear their opinions. Thanks.
