Quote:The previous administration left the military gutted, terrorists fearing nothing from the US and the economy sliding headlong into the current economic slump.
You guys are so laughable, it almost isn't fun punching holes in your arguments.
Everything that is bad: blame it on Clinton. Anything good; take credit for Dubya.
The notion that the military was gutted under Clinton was successfully refuted in another thread, Tresspasser. No need to go over it again. It is simply anti-Clinton thinking in dreamland.
As for the economy -- everyone knew Dubya would screw it up -- and everyone knew that when it happened, the knee-jerkers would blame Clinton.
Quote:The current administration has begin rebuilding both our military readiness and our credibility as a nation you attack only at your peril and has taken steps to repair the economy (the success of which we could debate but only time will tell).
The current administration is trashing long-held standards of conduct -- and is alienating us through the world. The only reason they have to repair the economy is because they have already screwed up a good thing.
Quote: Now, I don't argue the point that Republicans will find fault with Democrats and vice versa no matter what the situation, but I thought it would add to the usefulness of your hypothetical to better define the facts to which you refer.
There is "defining facts" and there is "distorting facts."
I think you were doing the latter, Tresspasser -- although I will defend your right to delude yourself into thinking you were doing the latter.
