Okay, let's think about it for a second or two, if possible.

Clinton's economic team, somehow, was able to turn the enormous budget deficit that Poppy Double-You left behind into some decent SURPLUS. Then, Double-You Junior came about and totally f_ucked up the country, the economy included.

How stupid is that? Can you evaluate it, on a scale from 9 to 10 where 9 stands from extremely stupid and 10 is for totally stupid?

I suppose, in your non-existent wisdom, you're going to feel nostalgic about the good all double-you days when the white men and the rednecks were messing up things for everyone, regardless of race or pedigree.

Well gee, what we're seeing today on Wall Street is the magic wand Billy Boy used when, during his administration, the Glass-Steagall Act was repealed. Do some homework, you pathetic D-voting freak. That, more than anything, let loose these greedy hounds from hell that are now stealing our future.
