RE: "Name one thing CLinton had to do with the dot-com boom." Why? I've said repeatedly that he didn't have anything to do with it. Bush didn't either. Same with the S&P 500 shortly thereafter. Same with the loss of expected tax revenues both caused, which affected the deficit, and would have occurred on the watch of whomever was elected President. I think Bush should have been vetoing spending bills left and right, and he's vetoed none. I don't care for Bush's Republican (Republicrat/Democan economics always seem to grow spending) economics of maintaining the status quo. Clinton didn't do squat 'cept raise taxes greatly, as Bush 1 before him had done. Yeah, it was "the hardest decision I've ever had to make," he said with a tear in his voice (I closely paraphrase). LOL. What a ham. If you consider him responsible, then so was Bush 1 whom he beat largely by harping on the "read my lips, no new taxes" comment. How gullible you are, IMHO. You are clueless as to what can make Americans free and gin up the economy, and what DID help the economy in the 80's and 90's. It wasn't Clinton. Your partisan blaming of Bush for what both parties are VERY responsible for (yes, even the war costs), is just ludicrous. Dan B.
