Conservatives Pick Your Poison - Bush or Clinton
I know of many conservatives who dislike George W Bush. I also think there are many good reasons. I just wonder who they dislike more, Bill Clinton or George Bush. I have to admit that if someone put a gun to my head and made me choose between Bill Clinton or George Bush I would take the bullet. Just kidding, I’d have to go with Bill Clinton. I look at George Bush as a very active president who did a lot of damage. I look at Bill Clinton as a mostly inactive president who did little damage and little good.
What I’m looking for is discussions among real conservatives. neo-cons need not apply 
For the sake of this post I’ll define a conservative as someone who wants a small government, low taxes, and is socially conservative.

The only comment I have is this.
During the Clinton administration our Government employees, soldiers, sailors, and airmen were the subject of many attacks on U.S. Property.
1993 World Trade Center bombing
1996 Khobar Towers bombing
1998 U.S. Embassy Bombing Dar es Salaam
1998 U.S. Embassy Bombing Tanzania
1998 U.S. Embassy Bombing Nairobi
2000 Bombing of the USS Cole
The nonexistent response to these terrorist attacks is likely what fueled Bin Laden’s plan to destroy our towers on 09/11/2001
I don’t know the exact body count of these events, but in my mind they were outright acts of war against the United States…yet….nothing in response other than placing Usama Bin Laden at the top of the FBI 10 most wanted list and a pair of cruise missiles to do a flyby of an Al Queda training camp.
I am not blind to the damage that George Bush has caused us in the international community and at home, but our passive response to these brazen attacks only strengthened the resolve of the enemy.
