Re: "Reagan gains were built on deficit spending, same trick the chimp is trying." I gather you believe deficit spending can spur and grow the economy. Re: "He showed fiscal responsibility, A FREAKIN CONSERVATIVE trait now LOST!!!!!!!!!!!!" Clinton, like Carter to a lesser extent I feel, was largely a contemporary fiscal conservative quite against his party. Democrats refused to cut spending in the 80's. They'll refuse again. Thanks a lot. Re: "The 90's economic boom started!!! with the balancing of the budget..." Your exclamation points after the word "started" are helpful, since it is factually untrue that the 90's economic boom started with the balancing of the budget. It started years earlier. Re: "Wall Street ,boom and bust, IS RUN by conservative factions" This leaves the previous comments effectively moot, and leaves us wondering at your contradictory logic in which Clinton can do great good, and Reagan great good(market wise for sure, let's face it, eh?), in an arena which Republicans control the booms and busts. And surely by your logic, the republicans have chosen to bust the markets for Bush, and boom the markets for Clinton! Mostly we wonder if you have a clue yourself, or just repeat a bunch of republican bashing from various sources who actually disagree with each other on the finer points. Dan B

or maybe you think republicans dumped the market on Clinton, i.e. the 70+% fall of the NASDAQ on his watch, and then lost their usual iron clad control of the market as it continued down under Bush. Damn bad timing, LOL. But why whould they boom it at all for clinton? Maybe they lost control earlier, due to clintons brilliance. But maybe this means Republicans really haven't successfully controlled jack in the markets, all along(presuming again, that they would be stupid enough to think they could!)? See how funny logic can be when you don't think before you form opinions and write? Dan B

"The 90's economic boom started!!! with the balancing of the budget, and that was NOTICED globally" That is the most moronic statement ever made. The 90's boom was because of the Internet and the greatest leap in computer technology know to man. THAT FOOL WAS GLOABLLY NOTICED. Clinton didn't balance the budget because of his lack of spending. He had a peace dividend from the Reagan years and tons of money flowing into the treasury. Only a dead brained leftist could think that a president could be responsible for the genius of a nation
