One of the interesting things is that every time someone posts a chart bashing Clinton they really are bashing Reagan/Bush. The only annual declines in GDP over the last 25 years have been in 1991 and 1982. bea.gov Someone posted a chart that shows military deaths during Clinton exceeding military deaths in Iraq. However, the same source data shows that military deaths during Reagan were larger than during both Clinton and Iraq. Someone also posted a chart suggesting that the debt as a percent of GDP was lower now than when Clinton was in office. However, the chart shows that the debt as a percent of GDP exploded upward when Reagan and Bush were in office, declined when Clinton was is in office, and is exploding upward again under Bush. What I believe we have here is a Reagan/Bush hating "demolib" masquerading as a Clinton bashing "debt and spend conservative."
