[VaYank5150]

So, HOW are these wars paid for already?

The CON$ervaTards think that because Bush kept them OFF BUDGET they don't have to be paid for.

Of course putting them off budget just passes the cost to the next generation, but that is not generational theft when CON$ do it!

Don't forget Katrina was Pres. Bush's fault too

Funny... when Clinton left a horrible mess, it was all put on Bush by the DEMs.. shoe goes on the other foot, and the line of thinking changes...

I think the poll has one thing right though, from the REP respondents... Congress has more to blame on 'the economy' than the bum Obama does.. one hing is for sure, Obama is doing a lousy job with his supposed plan to 'fix' it

Bill Clinton did not leave a horrible mess. And unlike George Bush's abysmal final approval rating of 34%, Bill Clinton's was 66%. The highest of the last 10 presidents.

Bill Clinton, with all of his faults, proved, in time, to be what this country needs. I emphasize, in time. His first 3 years were a disaster. We need one that serves all the people, not only 35% of them.

And when Obama is voted out in 12, they will still be blaming him.

Who did you predict to win the 08 election?

Back in April 2008? Hillary Clinton. She would have had my vote.

the 34% is generous. If you look at the polls from then, they ranged from 22% - 34%

Better Title:

But once the parties' candidates had been chosen, who did you pick?

 

[Rinata]

sheesh, clinton DID NOT leave a horrible mess....gosh almighty.....

yes, we had a tiny, tiny, tiny recession that began in March of 2001 and ended in November of 2001 Dave, after Bush took office, but can be attributed to Clinton, but Clinton also left President Bush, with a project budget surplus as well...President Bush began on better footing financially than any president in our recent history.

Blinded, you are...

THERE WAS NO MOTHERFUCKING SURPLUS... that goddamn myth has been busted SO many times in this forum, it is not even funny any more

Even before President George W. Bush took office in January 2001, his surrogates began to suggest that the Bush administration was inheriting an economic recession from the Clinton administration. Over the last three and a half years, the media has been awash in false references to Bush "inheriting a recession" from Clinton. A recent Media Matters for America poll found that 62 percent of Americans hold the false belief that the recession began under Clinton.

In March 2001, the U.S. economy went into recession for the first time in ten years, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER.) NBER -- the private, nonpartisan organization whose business cycle announcements have long been considered the definitive word on the topic -- announced its determination on November 26, 2001:

Heck, you wingnuts are still blaming Carter and it's been almost 30 years since he held office!!

My vote was a no vote for President (then Senator) Obama.

My researfch into his voting record showed me he was way to left leaning to be able to govern all of the people.

McCain, in my eyes, was a man that would accomplish very little but as I said, he got my vote as a no vote for his opponent.

I was concerned that a far leaning candidate, be it left or right, would enhance an already growing divide in the country. I was correct with my assumption.

That is far from a fact. The fact is that he has reduced taxes on the majority of Americans. But I guess you have to keep posting the Republican lie

so what.....if your state raises your taxes like mine did,then its moot....
