>> Yeah. We never had natural disasters before Bush. Nor terrorist attacks...

Of course we had both; just never on the scale of 9/11 or Katrina.

>> The economy was nowhere near as bad as you are trying to play it when Bush took office. And it wasn't as great as you are pretending when Bubba was elected the first time. Neither were anywhere as bad as things were when Obama landed in the chair.

I'm not pretending anything. I agree the crash the democrats handed to Bush was particularly bad. But Bush DID inherit a serious recession, and it was mitigated by competent economic policy. And Bubba WAS handed a recession in recovery, a recovery which would have been far more robust had he not increased taxes.

These are arguments that never end. Even when the facts are clearly presented, the Left will keep arguing about it. So there really isn't much point.

>> The facts just don't bear your assertions out.

No facts would ever bear MY assertions out according to you. NO matter how correct my assertions might be.

Clinton never face any significant difficulty that created a drain on the economy

When the earth shakes is that a natural disaster because I don't think the LA quake counts. Yup, Clinton had it easy while GW had to work for his supper.
