Were there ever any kinds of Protests like the ones we have seen since January of 2001?I can't recall any, but I could be wrong.

1. nope, only some religious nuts
He was a very popular pres. That's why they had to impeach him.

2. Small ones during Kosovo
But nothing like what's going on today. The WTO protests maybe.

4. No way!
As popular as he was at home (and he was despite what Rush and Hannity say), he was even more so abroad. My in-laws in Syria absolutely adored both Bill and Hillary. In fact, whenever my mother-in-law sees Bill's image on television she say something like "oh for the days of Clinton" or "God bless Clinton."

6. Probably
why on earth are the poll numbers still around the 50% range for this little fucker after all the damage he has done, and why has my democratic party let him get away with so much?

7. Nope. Never-ever, as I enjoy reminding my Repub friends.
"Gosh!! Look at all those protestors! I don't ever remember Clinton being protested, home or abroad. Do you?"

Try it, it's fun!

He makes me feel shame for my country.
