Speaking of the surplus, we wouldn't have had one if Clinton hadn't stolen the money from SS and did some pencil-pushing to get the surplus. He would had had another deficit. Very coy of him, don't you think?
How is the economy turning around? We are still losing jobs. Methinks you are a dreamer.
Bush inherited a mild downturn, that was reflective of the usual cycle. The fact remains: he has NO economic policy, and was asleep at the wheel w/ everything that was brewing.
I don't know why I should even try to address your last comment. Do you read the news? Ever check the 'business section'?
Pay attention.
You should have also reminded Blabba that Slick Willy gave this country an economic surplus....which the Shrub & company subsequently pissed away on an illegal elective invasion/occupation of Iraq.
But as you noted, accurate history is not one of Blabba's strengths.
