Of all people in the world to comment on someones legacy, I would not expect it to be coming from the man who could'nt keep his zipper up in the "ORAL", I mean Oval Office of the White House. Clinton was IMPEACHED and DISBARRED BY THE SUPREME COURT! He also had his licence to practice law in Arkansas suspended for 5 years.
Former President Bill "BJ" Clinton's legacy is that of many Presidential Firsts:
The first elected president in U.S. history to be impeached -- Dec. 19, 1998.
The first president to be found guilty of a crime while still in office. (Leaking the private correspondence of Kathleen Willey in violation of the Privacy Act)
The first U.S. president to be publicly accused of forcible rape -- by Juanita Broaddrick, Feb. 24, 1999.,
The first U.S. president to approve the sale of sophisticated weapons technology to a hostile power while its emmisaries contributed to his campaign.
The first president to be accused by multiple witnesses, including one under oath before a federal grand jury, of using cocaine while he was the chief law enforcement officer of his state.
The first U.S. president to be accused of sexual assault on White House property -- by Kathleen Willey, March 15, 1998
The first U.S. president to order a paramilitary operation where a network television camera crew was punched, kicked, and forced to the ground at gunpoint to prevent them from broadcasting live video coverage. (Elian Gonzalez's abduction -- April 22, 2000)
The first sitting president to be the subject of a sexual harassment lawsuit -- filed by Paula Jones, May 8, 1994
The first sitting president to be held in contempt of court for lying under oath and fined by a federal judge (in the Jones lawsuit)
The first U.S. president to order an armored assault on a church, resulting in the deaths of 55 members of the congregation along with 25 of their children. (Waco -- April 19, ,1993)
The first U.S. presidential candidate to accept financial support from a KGB spy. (Aldrich Ames -- $7,000, 1991, 92)
The first sitting U.S. president to be named in a federal criminal referral as a possible witness to and beneficiary of fraudulant financial activity. (Whitewater)
The first president to consult with Congress about combat troop deployment while simultaneously receiving oral sex -- according to Monica Lewinsky and Rep. Sonny Callahan. (Starr Report -- Sept. 1998)
The first U.S. president to have two senior administration officials die violently under mysterious circumstances while they were being pressed for testimony on assorted White House scandals. (Vince Foster, Ron Brown)
The first U.S. president to have a major cooperating federal witness against him die in prison while waiting to give prosecutors the testimony they later admitted would have led to first family indictments. (James McDougal)
The first U.S. president to launch unprovoked missile attacks on two sovereign nations. (Sudan, Afghanistan -- Aug. 20, 1998)
Clinton, being on the socialist left is probably just another disgruntled liberal because the Pope remained firm in his positions on gay marriage, abortion, birth control, assisted suicide, and euthanasia. The Pope was against all of those issues listed that the liberal and socialist left sing the praises of. One should probably add that the Pope was probably pretty sure on his position when it came to....ADULTERY!
And one should not forget the position of the left when it comes to G-d and Religion in the United States and even the world. To the Liberal left, G-d has replaced most four letter words as being the most offensive word in the vocabulary.
I will put the Pope's legacy up against that of a disgraced President, (Bill "BJ" Clinton) any day.
