Why does the right hate The Clintons?

Because William Jefferson Clinton, a Democrat, defeated incumbent Republican President George H.W. Bush in 1992.

The administration had a goal to come up with a comprehensive plan to provide universal health care for all Americans.

Health Care reform was a campaign issue and an eminently qualified Hillary Clinton was drafted to head a Task Force to devise the plan and introduce the plan to the American people. Conservatives/Republicans, Libertarians and the health insurance and pharmaceutical industries strongly opposed the plan. The industries poured money into an effort to rally public support against the plan. Television ads and other campaign type smears and fears were used and ultimately Hillary's popularity suffered.

Yep.

They don't hate Bill as much as they hate his wife. The nerve of evil incarnates hating on someone. It's laughable.

Nope, not joking at all. I want to see her get rejected a third time, all while accelerating the demise of the DNC. We might even get a video of her flying down some stairs.

I don't know about you, but I found her campaigning to be hilarious.

Bill Clinton was good at his job but he should have been in jail for raping Juanita Broadrick. Hillary is an evil woman that should also be in jail. However, I don't hate them but glad the evil Hillary lost.

I don't hate the Clintons. I just think they are well past their freshness date and should be pulled off the shelf like some stale bananas.

Still, however, they insist on making themselves relevant. It's kind of like last year's Superbowl loser reminding everyone that they lost, but nobody cares.

Hillary is no Bill.
"I voted for him twice"
Same here, and Hillary was quite Centrist and Pragmatic, up until she lost against Obama, thin flipped on many of her positions. Maybe she just got old and angry.

I dislike anybody that comes in broke in government and stays in for decades and comes out multi-millionaires.


Reagan did his 2 terms and left.....You didn't see Nancy wanting to stay in power by running for the U.S. Senate in a state she wasn't from, then force Bush 1 to put her as Secretary of State as a stepping stone for the Presidency while selling this country out for money.


They won't go away that's why many dislike them and they are crooked and corrupt as hell.

Default Why does the right hate The Clintons?

I think as of now, the left hate the Clinton's more than the right. Personally, I find them very entertaining.

So, despite all of their dirty dealing and corruption (You barely scratched the surface BTW.), you wonder why we dislike them?
You might as well ask why we dislike criminals who commit ghastly crimes...are you really this obtuse?
