Neither Carter or Clinton are considered liberals by any stretch of the imagination. drop the hyperbole

the Iraqi trade embargo was George H.W. Bush, not Clinton.

Further more, can you actually name the "globalist liberal policies" and how they have hurt the economy ?

so wait...you are saying the sanctions STARTED by bushsr but INCREASED by Clinton are ONLY bushs fault..... blinders anyone....

name the globalist policies....freetrade started by carter...MASTERMINDED by his mentor liberal socialist Zbigniew Brzezinski, co-founder of the global elitist Trilateral Commission in 1973 and the principal architect of modern globalization
mentor of carter, bush1, clinton, cheney, and obama....and yes all liberal globalists

frre trade...started by carter...negotiated (at least the nafta part) by bush...passed by a democrat congress, signed into law by Clinton expanded by Clinton...and senator Obama too..his freetrade bill with Oman

globalism is VERY MUCH part of LIBERALISM and SOCIALISM


take off your blinders DJ....neo-cons....liberals in conservative clothing...spend happy fiscal liberal, with a southern baptist covservative streak in the social realm


here are some quotes from some of the liberal socialist globalist , like Zbigniew Brzezinski
Quote:
We cannot leap into world government through one quick step.... The precondition for eventual and genuine globalization is progressive regionalization because by that we move toward larger, more stable, more cooperative units."
Quote:
"This is a form of Socialism known as fascism, and it will be the type of world government the power elite plans ultimately to bring about and control. In this government, the power elite will control politicians who will become government leaders who will promulgate laws, rules and regulations favorable to certain transnational corporations"


Richard N. Haass:

Quote:
"In the 21st century, the principle aim of American foreign policy is to integrate other countries and organizations into arrangements that will sustain a world consistent with U.S. interests and values.

"…Integration is about bringing nations together and then building frameworks of cooperation and, where feasible, institutions that reinforce and sustain them even more
Haass should know. Not only is he a member of the very liberal Trilateral Commission, he’s the President of the Council on Foreign Relations. In fact, Haass wrote the forward to the CFR report, Building a North American Community.

In December, 1994, at a meeting in Miami, Florida, the Clinton administration launched a program of continental “economic integration,†which was put in motion after “the leaders of 34 countries in the Western Hemisphere pledged…to form a Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA).â€


Zbigniew Brzezinski described in his policy handbook, The Grand Chessboard –

Quote:
Quote:

the United States will need a hemispherical approach in order to help ensure its “primacy†on the world stage, specifically as economic competition increases from integrated trading blocks around the world

However, if you do want to argue that they are true, it does refute the claim of the person I responded to, who said said unemployment was higher than when he took office.

He took office in 1933, unemployment was 24%, it never got higher than that again.
to a point you are right, yes the unemployment rate did go down during the depression, however;

Crises and Controversies

In the time between the passage of the act and census day, the stock market crashed and the nation plunged into the Great Depression. The public and academics wanted quick access to the unemployment information collected in the 1930 census. The Census Bureau had not planned to process the unemployment information it had collected - which some statisticians considered unreliable - until quite a bit later and was unequipped to meet these demands. When it did rush its data on unemployment out, the numbers it reported were attacked as being too low. Congress required a special unemployment census for January 1931; the data it produced confirmed the severity of the situation.
1930 Overview - History - U.S. Census Bureau

you see the government did track the unemployment rates.

My favorite is Harry Truman.

The last real American President we had.

http://www.snopes.com/quotes/truman/truman.asp

Quote:
After President Truman retired from office in 1952, he was left with an income consisting of basically just a U.S. Army pension, reported to have been only $13,507.72 a year. Congress, noting that he was paying for his stamps and personally licking them, granted him an "allowance" and, later, a retroactive pension of $25,000 per year. When offered corporate positions at large salaries, he declined, stating, "You don't want me. You want the office of the president, and that doesn't belong to me. It belongs to the American people and it's not for sale."
And he never did sell out.

Imagine Hillary, Bill or even Obama saying such a stupid thing today. They'd sell out like a $2 horror.

When it comes to politicians good old Harry Truman could have been correct when he observed, "My choice early in life was either to be a piano player in a whorehouse or a politician. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference. I, for one, believe the piano player job to be much more honorable than current politicians."
