Bill Clinton
President Clinton - Eight Great Years
Mike Hersh writes: Right wingers never tire of lying about Bill Clinton, blaming
Bill Clinton, and generally obsessing about Bill Clinton. In order to counter
the lies denying Bill Clinton helped the economy and made life better for
Americans, I've compiled a short list of Clinton Accomplishments you can use to
correct anti-Clinton propaganda. I call it, President Clinton - Eight Great
Years of Closing Social and Economic Equity Gaps.

Republicans Sabotaged Clinton's Anti-Terror Efforts
Mike Hersh explains, President Clinton took the oath of office January 20, 1993.
February, 26 - barely a month later - terrorists detonated more than 1,000
pounds of explosives under the World Trade Center, killing six and injuring
about a thousand people. Bill Clinton and the Democrats never dreamed of trying
to blame the outgoing George Herbert Walker Bush Administration. They just began
working to keep us safe from terrorism. But Republicans sabotaged Clinton's
efforts to combat terrorists.
The Clinton Administration introduced a slew of counter-terrorism proposals.
If in force before 9/11/01, federal officials might have detected and prevented
the terrorist plot that killed 3000 Americans. Unfortunately, top Republicans
stalled anti-terrorism legislation for nearly a year and a half and then
watered-down the key provisions. We all know what happened eight months into the
illegitimate Bush/Cheney reign of error. All Republicans can do is blame others
for their mistakes. They can't keep us safe.

Bill Clinton
Clinton vs. Terror, Republicans vs. Clinton
An unknown author compiled these facts. (I'm trying to find the original author
- if anyone knows who deserves credit, contact us). President Clinton
led the fight against terrorism over strong opposition from Republicans in
Congress and the pro-Republican Media. Here's a partial - yet incredibly long -
list of accomplishments against terrorism for which the Clinton Administration
gets almost no credit or even recognition.

Never send a Bush to do a President's job
Mike Hersh asks: How good was the Clinton Presidency? History's pending verdict becomes clear when we ignore the hysterics and contrast Bill Clinton's success against two failed Bush presidencies which stand as gloomy bookends before and after the eight great Clinton years.

Shame On You, President Clinton!
Mary MacElveen writes: Some on the other side of the political spectrum claim President Clinton was soft on national security. They blame him for the horrific attacks that befell us September 11th, 2001. I say hogwash. That attack happened under Mr. Bush's watch, not President Clinton's. I do not find many faults with President Clinton, but I see plenty of intelligence. Along with great strides to make us a better America without sacrificing many of the freedoms we hold so dear to us.

Clinton's "Lies" vs. GOP Crimes
Mike Hersh writes: Starting even before the 1992 election, the right wing went into overdrive lying about President Clinton. Lee Atwater began it before Clinton's last campaign for Governor of Arkansas. Then-President Bush even ordered the State Department and others to break the law looking for dirt on the Clintons. Bad enough, but then it got worse.
Richard M. Scaife paid people to lie about Bill Clinton, and Clinton's racist enemies in Arkansas were happy to get paid to keep doing it. Tiny magazines -- many funded by the right wing conspiracy -- fed right wing hate radio. Established media followed the hate radio, publishing lies and smears against President Clinton.
Many fell for these lies, including the NY Times and Washington Post. Once those major papers went tabloid on Clinton, of course every nut job even got worse. The established media following the hate radio right wing nuts. The pattern continued. Each time repeating all the past repudiated accusations:
The rabid right wing investigated President Clinton for 10 years (and counting...) and all the witch hunters have to show are a litany of non-lies about irrelevant matters in a frivolous, sham lawsuit itself funded by right wingers as a partisan dirty trick.
Whitewater, Haircutgate, Filegate, the Travel Office, Vince Foster, Secrets to the Chinese.... It's called echo and amplify. Yes, Hillary, there is a right wing conspiracy. Ask David Brock.
