The people who attacked the World Trade Center in jail for the rest of their natural lives in a short period after the attack. And we can show how Bush ended all this incompetance. Just look at how great the market is doing today!
How soon we forget.

You do realize that sub prime lending was ramped up under Clinton and that Clinton deregulated banks and insurance companies thereby erasing the traditional line between banks insurance companies and investment firms which in large part contributed to today's mess don't you?
We are just paying for it now

You do realize that Clinton only looked good at the end of his second term because he was surfing the stock bubble that popped right after he left office.

And you still don't answer the question.

How is recycling the Clinton era changing Washington? To me it proves that BHO had not thought about what he was actually going to do if he won. now lo and behold he won and he is appointing nothing but political hacks.

There is nothing "new" here folks.
