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.

Now, smart a__es like you are squealing and screaming because Obongo is bringing back the competent technocrats that turned around the country's finances.

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today on Wall Street is the magic wand Billy Boy used when, during his administration, the Glass-Steagall Act was repealed.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.

We can also thank the Clinton administration for using taxpayer dollars to bail out the Mexican Peso, and for NAFTA/GATT, which is the principal reason that GM stock is now worth zero.

Yes, NAFTA did passed under Slick Willie. And GATT-WTO also. Not that the Rs haven't economic blood on their hands, but asshat Ds, who still pimp for the Bent One, need to come to these fights somewhat armed. They're an embarrassment.

The Republican dominated Congress went along with most of Clinton's trade and foreign policy, just as the Democrats in Congress have been giving Bush everything he wants.

That's why people who go around saying that D will cure R or R will cure D are a joke.
