They might be better than Bush but not by much IMHO.

On foreign policy, I regrettably agree. But there are other considerations for me. It's not just a MIC (Military Industrial Complex) distortion (to the point of grotesque) that bothers me about this Admin. It's an assault on a century of political evolution. This group wants a return to a late nineteenth century Plutocracy.

While Clinton was far from an ideal Prez, consider what would have occurred if he hadn't been elected, and the neo-cons had emerged triumphant in a second Bush Sr. Admin. With a significantly larger army, and in the late stages of a secular bull period, their dreams of hegemony could have been carried to much greater extremes, before faltering from a lack of troops and treasure.

All, JMO
