Clinton's Fault.. not really.

Yo, Chill.
I merely said it happened on Clinton's watch. I have no idea who was the driving force behind it, other than it was someone in his administration. Obviously it wasn't just Clinton's fault since Congress had to approve it as well.
It is a fact that the CIA as an organization was not funded well enough and was legally restricted to a degree where it was difficult for them to provide any good intelligence for anybody, be they Republican or Democrat.
However, one can make the (unprovable assertion) that a leader, well leads, and that if a leader is corrupt it sends a tacit signal to others that they can get away with it too. So, in part, he probably had some effect on the economy to promote graft, and there has been a dramatic rise in the rate of Oral sex among teenagers after the Clinton scandal. Of course
All entirely coincidental and proving nothing. I would probably say a more direct cause would be those actually carrying out the fraud and having Oral sex.
Since he was out of office during the slow and still ongoing recovery, I would say he couldn't have much effect on that, and that 9/11 and business scandals have been doing more to slow the recovery than Bill.
The state of the CIA makes me think it was unlikely that Clinton could have gotten Bin Laden as he has been accused, so I don't think 9/11 belongs on the list.
I agree with the others.. :>)
