Fiscally, I'm not even sure it's "lite".

It's really hard to make a "fair" comparison between the two.

Clinton's policies helped lead us into a situation where we had to go to war to address the problems we faced, and in order to fight that war we had to spend insane amounts of money to equip our military, and we've wasted immense amounts of money as a result of not having a competent and capable intelligence community because Clinton gutted it and drove out most of the competent people.

A lot of Clinton's policies have caused a lot of damage in many different ways, and Bush has been left cleaning up the mess.

Comparing them in a fair manner isn't easy, but it's not hard to see that both have been bad.

I'm inclined to think that Clinton was worse, but the perscription drug plan and illegal immigratons enforcement under Bush may result in him costing us even more in the long run.
