I am not saying it his fault, only that your logic behind that argument is flawed.

President Clinton screwed up on a personal level. But on a professional level he was and still is respected around the world as a great leader.

I will go as far to agree that he has been a mediocre president. But considering the position and the responsibilities that go along with it, anything less than good is a failure.
LOL! President Clinton...a respected, great leader! That's good stuff! Let's just imagine for a second that 9/11 happened with Clinton in office....(which isn't a stretch, since Osama and his followers had been planning this along with all the other attacks they carried out during Clinton's productive years as president).....could you even imagine where we would be now! I can guarantee you this....we would have been attacked again and again....there would have been no pursuit of terrorists, no interegations, no monitoring....we would have been sitting ducks! At least Bush did something to keep our country safe....for that, he has my praise.
