What exactly do you mean? What did you expect them to clean up?
The Clintons did a lot of damage at the White House, in case you have forgotten. They left the offices, computers, etc. in a mess with their childish pranks.
The Clintons, themselves, walked off with everything in the White House that wasn't nailed down.
This forum was loaded with complaints about the Clinton gang and what could now be done about it, but Bush let it slide....even started chumming with Ted Kennedy.
He left a dangerous number of Clinton employees at the State Dept., CIA and other administration jobs....most of which have come back to haunt us later.
I can't believe you weren't aware of it or have forgotten. George W. Bush became "Carpet Man" for the Dems and they immediately started taking advantage of it.
>>"Ever since W's first election in 2000 and with Republicans in control of both houses, I was waiting with bated breath for them to start cleaning up the Clinton mess.

Huge spending. Entitlements. Borders. In short, everything we were promised that Republicans could do if they were unhampered by a Dim prez or a Dim congress.
They blew the historical opportunity. Big time. And now the opportunity has passed, and we have a Dim congress and a weakened president. Had they seized the opportunity, we may well have had a majority in Congress today. It is a dang shame.
