And since he can predict the future he is a bad man.  What has Bushdone about North Korea?
Clinton was was doing the the rest of the world was doing about Iraq, nothing. He had faith in the UN. Even before 9/11 Bush gave Iraq more time as well to comply with the UN. If Clinton waited to long why didn't W go in right away?
And on Iran like you said what has Bush done?

Clinton had surgical strikes prepared for N. Korea. It was considered the closest we've come to war in recent years with that country but he didn't follow through. Right now N. Korea actually has nuclear weapons so war isn't exactly the easiest option anymore. War is never a joy, but this would be a nightmare. What has Bush done? Bush has pressured the country through the use of its Asian allies, most prominently China. Bush has allowed for talks.
On Iraq: Clinton and Bush knew the UN was useless on Iraq. Both wanted to act on it. One didn't because he knew it would be a PR debacle that he didn't want to deal with so he just left it to Bush.
As for Iran? Well Bush has pressured the UN to find that they are in breach of nuclear violations. Have they found them to be? Of course but has the UN or any country done anything about it? No. Can Bush just attack Iran as well? No, because people like you will talk about where are the WMDs? War is no good? Etc.
