It never ceases to amaze me when I see people blindly defending the Republican party and Dumb Ass Dubya as if they are infallible.
Yeru, I have to LAUGH at your comments.
The Bad Economy, the war with Iraq, the middle east mess Afghanistan, ENRON and WorldCom are all thanks to Clinton, Bush just inherited them.
The Robust Economy [!!!] came in fact from being set up by Reagan Bush with the aid of a Republican controled Congress.
However, that tax cut is credited with ending the recession early. [!!!!]
... the debt increase under Reagan... helped end the cold war. At the same time it was the Democratically controlled congress that kept the tax and spend mind set in the government.
Bush has inherited Clinton's recession, clinton's overinflated (now deflated) tax revenues, the mess clinton help create in the middle east, a war on terror, and Tom Dashcle (ouch)!
Fact - The United States enjoyed the greatest period of prosperity in the financial markets in it's history (.com explosion, etc) during the Clinton Administration. Do you deny that? Or shall I pull up substantiated evidence of the GDP and economic prosperity this nation enjoyed in the late 1990's versus the general downturn since Bush was inaugurated?
Forgive me if I am wrong, but was there not a recession in the United States when George Bush Sr was in office.. PRIOR to Clinton ever being President?
Oh I suppose Clinton is to blame for the economy that Bush Sr. and Reagan incited before he was ever President? PLEASE.
Bush Sr in office = war with Iraq, recession, bad economy
Clinton in office = economic prosperity, robust economy
W Bush in office = war with Iraq, recession, bad economy
Clinton goes out of office.. whammo.. Bush starts repealing ergonomics standards and blue-collar worker friendly standards implemented by Clinton and instead starts greasing his corporate buddies who helped fund his campaign.
Can you say Halliburton Company scandal etc for Bush and Cheney? You act like the Republican party is snow white. For Christ's sake, how can you get more hypocritical than to push legislation to prevent CEO's from committing actions on behalf of their own financial interest that HE HIMSELF did 10 years ago?
Did you listen to his speech about how CEO's should be held accountable and should adhere to a moral standard.. yet he did the exact same thing 10 years ago?
LMAO
You also said the war with Iraq. HA!
Was not Desert Storm BEFORE Clinton went into office? Forgive me if I am wrong, but Bush Sr was responsible for getting the military within sight of Baghdad, and then LEAVING Hussein in power.
I would say Bush Sr is responsible for the war with Iraq.. he could have ousted Hussein OVER a decade ago. "A thousand points of light..." LOL! How is Clinton responsible for the war with Iraq when Bush Sr did not finish the job?
Notice I specifically bolded those topics. I DO hold the Clinton Administration responsible to some degree for Al-Qaeda / Afghanistan, and the recent accounting scandals plaguing several of the largest corporations in the country.
What agenda are you attempting to pawn off on people? Anyone who knows the facts could OBVIOUSLY contradict your false statements.
When you mix a lie with truth the statement becomes a lie.
Of course, if you want to get down to it.. Bush is an illegitimate President in my book. Over a MILLION more people across this nation voted for Al Gore. So much for the will of the people being heard huh? Ironic that the state that comes into question during the scandal had his brother as Governor.. and when the case went to the Supreme Court the Justices who voted in Bush's favor were appointed by.. you guessed it.. his dear old Dad.
He sure pushes the War on Terror agenda continously. It is his saving grace.
9/11 saved his Presidency from being plagued as one of the WORST in the last 100 years. I wont go off on any further rant because personally I cant fucking stand any of the greedy bastards.
Have a nice time responding to my post. Im sure you will find some excuse to use so that you can bastardize the Democratic party and make the GOP look like the knights in shining armor. (gimme a mother fv<|<ing break)
Both parties are guilty. How can you continuously defend one over the other?
