I don't know if I have the right man, but I BELIEVE Ted Hayes was interviewed on Fox News early on in GW's presidency. He pointed out that the numbers of homeless people do not diminish during Democrat presidencies : the media just doesn't REPORT on the homeless when there's a Democrat in the Oval Office. Only when we have a Republican president does the left or the media bother with the homeless.

For examples, he used all those exposés during Reagan's presidency, contrasted by the notable lack of media attention while Bubba reigned, though there were just as many homeless, then contrasted the Bubba years to the news reports about the homeless immediately following GW's inauguration.

I noticed that too. There were just as many homeless when B.Clinton was in there, maybe more. It seemed in our town to be true. They even had some homeless people hanging out in our public library downtown. Most were harmless, and the people working there were not bothered by them. Some would even offer to help carry things, to feel useful.

It was really sad. There were people out with signs saying: "Will work for food", and such. So homelessness didn't go down in the Clinton Administration, at least not around here in Ogden, UT!
