The idiotic postings below about the democratic party.

You complain about nothing positivey from democrats??!? Maybe you missed the eight years of non-stop whining from the republicans! For eight long years they couldn't get over an ELECTED president they didn't like. Imagine if Clinton's brother had fixed his election, not one republican would ever SHUT UP about it!
EVER!

You want a positive agenda? Try the earned income tax credit that CLinton got passed that lifted millions of Americans who work for a living out of poverty and off welfare. Try the programs that put internet and computers into the vast majority of american schools that we without them. Try the Middle class tax cuts that gave us unpresidented booming stock markets that dwarfed anything before or since. You could try the lowest unemployment in 30 years. Or the first budget surplus on a yearly basis in 36 years. You want positive? Then put a democrat back in charge!

You want negative? Then look around. THree years and we have the highest deficits in the HISTORY of the country. We have lost 3 MILLION jobs in just three years, that never happened any time except the great depression with Hoover. You want negative, the judges you want to call qualified would love to take us back to slavery and a church run society. When your justice dept is run by a man who was fighting to keep Activly bussing black kids across town to stick them in all black schools, you are not an acceptable judge of qualifications.
You want negative, try the blaming of enron's rip off of charging 3000% higher than the highest rates in HISTORY in California on the salmon run like Cheney did. With memo's calling the program "death star" in Enron stationary, Bush said "I don't know Ken Lay". Only texas newspapers from the Gov's term show them buddy buddy as can be. He is a LIAR!@|!!!!
In the 2000 debate Bush claimed he sponsered a bill of rights for patients in Texas, and blabbered on and on about how proud he was of it. HE VETOED IT TWICE!!! And it became law WITHOUT his SIGNATURE! He's a LIAR!! Clear and plain.


You want to talk about the blackout, Fine. Lets talk about how the Grid upgrade was in the budget until BUsh told the gopers to veto it. TWICE! Republicans talk about responsibility, but somehow, when they are in office and everything always goes to hell, they are never responsible for any of it according to them. Let's talk about the fact that the company where it happened, first Energy gave hundreds of thousands to Bush and had massive leaks in their reactor in Ohio
that they barely caught when inspecters came in. The safety record for them is disgusting.
Yet thanks to Bush, the regulaters keep loosening the reigns on them.

Well, if you control all three branches, and the country is in the worst state it's been since the depression, don't tell me you aren't responisible!

You want positive agenda, look at the small business tax breaks Howard Dean gave in VErmont that increased their jobs by 26% over six years. Only his state isn't cutting everything to the bone under Bush. Only his state still has a $10 million dollar surplus to get through.
Across the country, every state run by the GOP is bankrupt. What to the republicans say for themselves? Excuse after excuse. Bill Clinton had one affair, Bush is screwing the whole nation.

you know I am sick of this politics crap.

It does not matter if you are democrat or republican.
The 2 party system does not work.

when you vote you are only chooseing the lesser of 2 evils. All politicians lie, everyone knows that.

So instead of complaining, why don't you do something about it?

Do not be part of the problem, be part of the solution.

Wrong, Styl. Perhaps you've been smoking too much, but it's still illegal. That it is tolerated does not mean that it is legalised.

Anyhow, I never thought I would be saying this, but... listen to kona.

craeonics, thats true, however you can buy it EVRYWHERE.... allowed/tolerated = legaliced in my oppinion, if you can open a coffeeshop for selling drugs I don't see its as illegal IMHO

Bill Clinton was not even in office long enough to have that dramatic an effect on the economy when it boomed in 1993. Some that say Clinton engineered the boom; some say Greenspan engineered it, many people and economists would disagree on both counts. It was Ronald Reagan’s trickle down theory and supply side policies that prompted the explosive boom of the 1990’s by cutting unemployment and controlling inflation.
I will link to sites with charts, facts, figures, and commentary. George Bush is basically trying to mirror the Reagan policy in an attempt to recreate its economic success.

The reason the Republicans complain about Clinton is not just for his problem with ethics, he seems to have taken credit for Reagan’s economic policies, and he has abysmally failed on matters of national security as well. Three of the most disturbing examples are ….


China ….a totalitarian regime that successfully stole American nuclear technology information, it is now aimed at us, and they could incinerate us with our own technology.

http://www.newsmax.com/articles/?a=1999/6/9/12443

N. Korea …..Caving in to demands of kimJongIl giving Jong IL billions of dollars in raw materiel in exchange for the promise that jong IL would not build a weapons program.

http://www.fas.org/spp/starwars/congress/1998_h/ws924981.htm

Osama Bin Laden…. failing to capture him at times when the capture of Bin Laden was an actionable reality

Don't forget that China gave a lot of money to the Democratic Party during the Clinton years. It does not suprise me that Clinton looked the other way when Chinese spies stole our secrets.

Oh just stop! This is silly and pointless. Republicans, Democrats, liberals, conservatives, con-artists, slight-of-hand artist, bold faced liars. What's the difference?

Make some skins, or go out and mow the lawn, or build a functional piece of furniture, or even go and pick up some litter in your local park, but do something constructive. This is anything but constructive.

Listen to motion...

It's 100 degrees outside and Motion wants me to go mow the lawn??? Well, actually I should. The crabgrass is in bloom.... Or at least it looks like it's considering making a move on my Mazda....

Ah, well Ahhhnold was in town today at the state fair. Hope he didn't say "I'll be back..."

Well I shall take Motion's advice and save my Mazda from the crabgrass... (I was planning to anyway, but just easing into the motivation, ya understand....)

I don’t understand why anyone thinks there is a fight here…this is called debate if you are not concerned with politics, ecology, or technology then do not read this.

There is speculation that Clinton turned a blind eye to the espionage in exchange for campaign contributions, Clintons policies and presidency were as bad or worse than Carters but I have a hard time believing he would sell out his own country just for cash, one thing for sure US technology is in the hands of China, it sure was not smart to arm China with the most sophisticated nuclear weapons and guidance systems in the world.

They say Osama Just held a big terrorist convention high up in his mountains plotting bio- terror. I can understand why the US has passed on attempting to storm these mountain strongholds. The Soviet Union lost over one hundred thousand men in that endeavor. They are training Afghani fighters maybe they will attack Osamas mountain stronghold sometime soon. It looks like the current US policy is keep him contained in the mountains, because the casualties to go in would be high for US forces to storm the mountains.

One thing that was very disturbing about September 11 was the absence of claim for the act. You have to ask yourself something, how could anyone organize and coordinate something of that magnitude, and when asked about whether or not he is responsible, he just describe airplanes coming out of the sky to crash into buildings as though it were rain or snow or a simple act of nature. His lack of bravado and deadpan delivery is chilling to say the least.
