Peace, if you ignore the multiple terrorist attacks on US interests. All the seeds of 9-11 were during Clinton’s pathetic foreign policy years.
I say we also had a Republican majority in the house and Senate after 1994, until Newt let it go to his head.
I still remember the watching the first session of congress on C-Span, with Newt shutting down every Democrat who tried to slow down the initial agenda.
The Clintons are desperate to get back into office----they are beholden to a lot of people who made them billionaires...all of them standing in line, waiting for the presidential pen to repay them w/ tons of tax-paid interest.
Economics?
‘The era of big government is over!’
IMHO, it was lucky for him that Hillarycare was stopped, and that the Republicans wound up getting control of Congress. Further, the ‘highest home ownership in history’ part involved the loose mortgage practices that his administration pushed - and that were one of the reasons we then had an economic meltdown later. Also, it was during the dot-com era, and not long after the collapse of the USSR, so there was a lot of new commerce that was going to happen irrespective of who was sitting in the White House.
The Kosovo War and Bosnian War were peaceful?
And before reporting reform, the most dishonest economic data in history. Until Obama’s record level of phony economic propaganda.
The World Trade Center was hit for the first time,
and the Clinton(s) let Osama go.
Also, several terrorist attacks WERE COVERED UP.
This is similar to news-clampdown on Obola’s importation
of Ebola and EV-D68 and his support of ISIS.
QUADRUPLE HISTORY REWRITING BARF ALERT!!!!!!
Guess Gingrich, 1994 GOP Tsunami election, and Contract with America had nothing to do with it. I am so damn sick of WJ Blowjob taking credit for something he basically had nothing to do with, and had to accept.
Some more spin from the White House DJ team of F&S.
During the clinton Administration, the clintonites found new, evil uses for NATO, which should have been abolished. America and its allies bombed Serbia in order to back savage muslim drug dealers and organ traffickers. They murdered 2000 civilians in the process. And by expanding NATO, the sowed the seeds for obama’s Cold War II.
Russia retaliated for NATO expansion, for Kosovo and for the clinton-Yeltsin emasculation of their country by elevating Vladimir Putin to the Presidency, so that they cold fight back against the clintonites and their successors.
clinton’s “favorable” fiscal policy was the work of one Newt Gingrich, whom few want to give credit for anything. And the increasing corporate productivity was made possible by finally leaning to use the technology that had been developed in the “bad old” 1980s—the Reagan era.
Meanwhile, millions of Americans were permanently shut out of the main economy, and had to settle for lesser, less stable jobs than they had been used to. That helped set us up for the economic instability that we are living under today.
We have—in many ways—been living under the clinton Administration from 1993 until the present day. Electing Hillary as President would seal the deal, and result in the demise of our beloved America. Lord have mercy!!!!
The economy was flat and deficits rising until after the November 1994 election when the Republicans took control of Congress.
Similarly, the economy crashed and deficits began to soar after the November 2006 elections when the Democrats took control of Congress.
And let’s not stop there: let’s not fail to credit them with other far-sighted policies that had an effect on American security, such as the wise decision to wall off intelligence between agencies, thus preventing the INS from telling the FBI that known Al Qaeda members were attending American flight schools.
9/11, and its decade+ of war, brought to you by the Clinton Administration.
While all our military top secrets were sold to China in exchange for campaign contributions.
They’re starting this b.s. spin a bit earlier than I thought.
But watch the dumb masses eat it up - especially if the GOP elites go ahead with their plans to force Jeb down our throats. Instead of being a decision on whether continue with Obama’s failed policies, the race will then transform into: “which decade did you like better: the 1990s or the 2000s? BTW.. wanna make history by electing a female?”
The party’s leaders and donors might have money, but it isn’t translating into political shrewdness, that’s for sure.
That’s what happens when republicans win control of congress starting with the house in 1994. Shutting down the govt also was decisive in bringing the budget under control.
Well done republicans.
Not being satirical.
The only reason there are any fond memories of Clinton are newt Gingrich and the Republican Revolution. I can’t understand anyone not shouting that from the rooftops every time it’s brought up. Remember “The era of Big Government is over”? He crapped his diaper with tax hikes, slowed the economy, and brought in a Republicans landslide. It was smooth sailing except for Monica after that. He was basically a lame duck after 2 years. He agreed with the Republicans and was allowed to keep his pants down and ride in a big jet for 6 years.
The relative peace and economic boom of the 1990's had little to do with Bill Clinton's leadership. In fact, most of his major policy decisions were detrimental to both.
Bill Clinton was the ultimate beneficiary of Ronald Regan's presidency that brought the end to the Carter era depressed economy and Stagflation. His policies also brought about the fall and demise of the USSR, the end to the Cold War and the freedom of millions of Eastern Europeans after 50 years behind the Iron Curtain.
In that post cold war era the political talk centered around the impact and potential benefits of the budgetary "Peace Dividend" the US would see as a result of reduced confrontations and tensions, etc.
But, true to form, Bill Clinton, squandered the opportunity.
Instead of placing the interests of the nation first and foremost he spent his time in office pursuing his (and Hillary's) socialist agenda, fomenting racial divisiveness, stomping on critics and opponents, enriching himself and his friends, and satisfying his own sexual appetites.
In many ways Bill (and Hillary) Clinton laid the groundwork for the kind of vindictive, scorched-earth democrat party we have today.
And, as the Reagan policies were the building blocks for the good times enjoyed during the Bush 41 and Bill Clinton years, the weakness and poor decisions of the Clinton administration were the building blocks of the sinking economy, foreign entanglements and reduced national security that lead to the disaterous attacks on the USA on September 11, 2001.
Yeah? So how'd that work out?
Racial discrimination was such an important issue to him he waited until he was on his way out the door to mention it. Class act.
