Whether it's Clinton or Reagan or Carter or Johnson or ... you can't be president without a lot of blood on your hands.
Actually, that's not entirely correct. Take a look at one of those lists of all the countries the US has bombed since WWII and the dates they were bombed. You'll notice that one President's term is missing - the much-maligned Jimmy Carter.
Yup, Carter is the only post WWII President who didn't bomb anybody. Which goes a long ways towards explaining why he's so unpopular, now that I think about it. Americans talk a good game when it comes to peace, but it's all just talk with absolutely no walk to back it up.
