Always nice to know what the current fairy tale of the left is.

It never ceases to amaze my how many people can ascribe the economic
tides of the world to a single individual: If you're a left wingnut than
it wasn't Carters fault, if you're a a right wing whacko then JWB didn't
do it, it was all Clintons' fault.

True. But one needn't be a left wing nut to agree with you and say that Carter
himself didn't create the problems he inherited. One simply needs to be
realistic. FWIW I'm a Goldwater Conservative.

I rather liked what Goldwater stood for, but he seemed to scare the hell
out of a lot of voters; could of had something to do with that ad where
the little girl gets vaporized in an atomic explosion. ;-)
