The Country listens and remembers who entangled America in a war that will never end and left a huge deficit behind, even though he inherited surplus from his predecessor.
No matter how much you try no one will ever forget what 8 years of GW Bush did to this country.

GWB the excuse that just keeps giving. Too bad the rest of the country isn't listening to that excuse anymore.

Good grief... another brainwash victim.

1) There was no surplus. The National Debt increased every year. That means money had to be BORROWED each year to pay the federal government's expenses. Look it up.

2) Clinton says Iraq has WMDs = not a lie.

Bush says Iraq has WMDs = a lie?

How do you reconcile that?

Pretty sure the entire Congress had a say in that deal. It wasn't like Bush went rogue and signed an executive order.......

How did your Congressmen/women vote on it?

What's to reconcile? Clinton didn't sent troops to Iraq and spent billions on a senseless war, did he?

The media and govt always focus on budgets and never on books. This is why so many people miss the real financial picture.

Clinton set everything up to be offshored and leveraged to the hilt. Then handed it to Bush to offshore it.

Clinton also let the banks go back to pre Great Depression speculating.

Yep. Rubin and Summers talked him into doing so.

Bureau of Labor Statistics Data
Quick questions:

I looked at your website and there is only a 3% difference in regards to a comparison of the labor participation rates of 2004 and 2014.

Do you think this is a significant change?

I personally feel that the chart posted is pretty misleading. It stated the labor participation rate was 66% in Feb of 2004 and 63% in Feb of 2014. That really isn't that much of a drop. Also if you compared GW Bush's years to Clinton's second term, the graph is practically the same, a decrease. So evidently the rate of participation has been decreasing since 2000 when it was over 67% (went to 65% under Bush, but then back up).
