President Bill Clinton spent his first 100 days bouncing between a series of blunders: unsuccessful Attorney General nominations, Hillary Clinton's failed health-care reform, "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" and the botched Branch Davidian raid in Waco, Texas. President George W. Bush presented a $1.96 trillion budget plan to Congress, created an Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives and halted federal funding for international organizations that offered family-planning services...
