The Clinton ‘surplus’ was fake, the dot com bust was real (clinton recession) then 9/11, then 6 years of the best economy ever, then the dems took over, and we totter on the brink of complete economic meltdown.

If you are going to blame a president, be consistent. If you are going to blame Congress, be consistent.

First, the Clinton bust was real, but it pales in comparison to the next big bust.

Second, the next 6 years of the best economy ever apparently was fake, too. It sure has fallen apart in the last 6 months. In fact, the $Trillions in loses tower over the now-small-peanuts -- Enron and World Global. [One news report tallies all the recent bailout at nearing $8 Trillion. Where is that coming from? From the money the Treasury is printing by indebting future generations.]

If Clinton is to blame for the economy at the end of his term, then Bush 2 is to blame for the economy at the end of his.

If you blame Congress (Dems) because they control Congress now, you have to blame Congress (Pubbies) during the Clinton years and most of the Bush 2 years.

Picking and choosing based on party is nothing but partisan bias. We get enough of that via the MSM.

Your comments exactly expose why the RATS are in power now.
