In all fairness, Clinton did several things right (in you ignore the rampant immorality.) He torpedoed national healthcare, he pushed NAFTA through Congress over the objections of democrats, he embraced the republican tax cut for capital gains in 1997, and he ended welfare “as we know it” (since revived by the less intelligent elements of the democrats.) Not entirely sure any republican could have accomplished so much, especially while enjoying services of an intern. The guy could multitask with the best of them.
Contrast Pres. Carter, who accomplished only 3 1/2 smaller things: decontrol of airline fares, decontrol of bank interest rates, and decontrol of interstate shipping regulation (plus a half point for the Egypt-Israeli truce that effectively ended 30 years of near-continuous warfare. Didn’t do much for US, but it is an accomplishment.)
No evidence he had Foster killed; travelgate and White Water came to nothing. And bush kicked out the inspectors so he could kill a lot more innocent Iraqis and waste trillions in an illegal war. And you hate Clintons?

Vince Foster, Cattle-gate, Rose Law Firm, Bombing Chinese Embassy, Web Hubbel, Ron Brown, Trooper-gate, etc. A rotten scoundrel.

Just glanced at this for the first time in ages. It only took one strip to remind me why it’s not worth reading.

I yet have hope Pres Obama will do something beneficial for the country. Suspect leaving office will be his first.

Hillary’s hated him ever since for that, and Monica…
