“but fondly remember “Clinton’s economy” and “the peace and prosperity of the Clinton years”

The Republican House and Senate created the economy of the Clinton years, despite him repeatedly vetoing many bills. The Democratic House and Senate that Obama’s election put in place for two years created the havoc that we currently face, and the current Senate continues to block any effort to reign in spending.

The current Republican House keeps passing budgets and bills that never see the light of day when they hit Harry Reid's desk. The roadblock is Harry Reid and the Dems. This just continues the decline and destruction of our American Republic.

The POS now rules by edict and proclamations to not enforce current law, and enforce rules and regulations he and his administration use to destroy our economy.

There's more to it than this.

When Clinton took over in 93, the Cold War was over and the economy was already growing for a year and nine months. Not having to budget for the Cold War and punting the WOT to the next administration had plenty to do with the "balanced budget".

All of those jobs he created? Besides the fact that the economy was already growing when he took office, take away the tech boom and all of the jobs created to set up the servers for ecommerce, update the mainframes for Y2K, and migrate the mainframes to modern servers, and Clintonomics looks a lot like Obamanomics.

He inherited a growing economy, the tech boom, and the end of the Cold War, and left us with the tech bust, the start of a recession, and the WOT. That's what we need to point out.a href =
