22. Bill Clinton was symbolism over substance
On the issues that COUNTED -- equality under the law and equality to serve in the military -- he fucked us over with glee and even advertised that decision on conservative radio stations as "defending traditional families."

An "AIDS Czar" and other useless symbolism makes not a whit of difference when compared with his other "achievements."

For gay people, Bill Clinton was a net negative -- we lost rights under his administration as a result of his actions. To say that he's still better than the Bushes is NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
