We've had this debate so many times even the worn tires or worn. The principle, largest, grandest, most massive reasons for the current debt crisis can be located squarely within the eight years of GWB's lackluster years: two wars without paying for them, a drug benefit without paying for it, and economic policies that exacerbated an economic downturn. There's really no debate about all this. And Krugman's point about Boehner's smear is well taken.

<<Clintons record was highly impacted by the "peace dividend' - and that completely went out the window with 9-11. >> It shouldn't have. 9/11 was a police action and nothing more, and the RW used it to start those wars and do whatever they wanted and everyone knows it. They built up 9/11 and fanned the patriotic flames so thye could manipulate peopel to do whatever they wanted. And the people never saw it and went right along with it. That is the headline news there.
