You can pretty much make the same comparison over and over again -- Britain, Ireland, etc., etc., etc.

1. Clinton was respected as a man who wanted peace

and who knew how to maintain it.

2. Bush has managed to become the most hated man on the planet..&

he is dragging our country along with him.

3. and so many of us despise him for the harm

he has done to our reputation. W took us from respected to hated.

4. What always strikes me...

is when we see pictures of past visits by Clinton to foreign countries, he can walk among the crowd. Sure, you know the Secret Service is there, but he never needed the huge "zone of protection" our current president needs.
