surpluses.
From 1998 through 2001. And, BTW, Bush deficits are significantly less than those racked up by Clinton in 1993, 1994, and 1995. When he had a Democratic Congress. To find a previous surplus, you have to go back to 1966 and then it was only $300M for one year. The next previous was a measly $100M in 1960.

But carry on. Don't let the mere facts even slow you down.

The economic bubble burst and the slide began while Clinton was still in office, and he left so many booby traps waiting to go off, including Osama on the loose, that a compelling argument is made that he intended things to fall apart economically and diplomatically after his term in order to make himself look good in retrospect.

I think he calls it his "legacy."

Well, his "legacy" is the burst economic bubble, 9/11, the recession, the paper tiger U.N., the Taliban, etc., etc.

It might have worked, but it won't, because it was too obvious and too much in keeping with his modus operandi.
