It's this simple, America wanted a draft dodger as their president instead of a WWII hero. We became soft and weak and as a result we were attacked on 9/11 despite signs that security needed to be stepped up. We saw the WTC bombing in 1993, intelligence failure with the Oklahoma City bombing, the bombings of our embassy in Africa in 1998, and of course the USS Cole. Hope you enjoyed having a good economy. Btw, how's your economy today as a result?
As a result of what? Or whom? If you asked that question anytime in the mid to late 90's the answer probably would've been "pretty good, thank you". The transformation of the budget from the largest deficits in history to the largest surpluses was nice too.
Utter coincidental I know. After all, we all know the government's budget is controlled by all other forces than, you know, actual fiscal policy.
It was likewise
pure coincidence that when W. got in and re-instituted the same irresponsible math defying policies that the budget deficit not only reappeared but exploded to new record levels.
As far as the economy now? Pretty lousy, but showing signs of recovery. Ergo I will support no candidate who doesn't oppose the warmed over "tax and borrow" Reaganomics that both Bushes fervently pursued. This, again coincidentally, excludes about 99% of Republican congressional candidates.
Oh, why do I let this obvious troll get to me?
