Bernie uses a lot of platitudes that are not exactly true in his
tirades against the job makers.

The Clinton "surplus" was mostly projections based on the dot com
bubble never ending.

The cost of the Iraq war is inflated. We were already in an Iraq war
when Bush came in and it wasn't cheap then. Pension costs are going to
be there no matter what.

The tax cuts were across the board, not just for the rich. That is why
almost half of the people pay no income taxes at all.



Clinton's "surplus" was also a result of excess Social Security revenues
that were transferred to the General Fund. The excesses were the result
of a robust but artificial economy based on dot.com companies that never
produced a product. The transfer of excess SS revenues to the General
Fund is legal but it's a bit of creative accounting to claim it erased
the deficit and produced a surplus.

I'm sorry, I must have missed the off budget accounting for the two wars
Bush started.

Clinton lucked out in the respect that bin Laden and the organizers of
the 9/11 attacks weren't ready a year earlier. They didn't care if it
was Clinton or Bush.

So all those reports that stated bin Laden was ****ed because G.H.W.
Bush put troops in holy Saudi Arabia, and that G.H.W. was targeted by
bin Laden were just more obfuscation put out by Dubya and his
administration? Sure.

Actually, they were wars Clinton was involved in, and Bush just continued.

Oh, right, because Clinton dispatched so many troops into Iraq and
Afghanistan. Right, I get it...Bush just "continued" the wars.

How much was that Naval carrier groups and bombing and missile firing
costing? Nothing? Not likely! How much did the Balkans cost? Somalia?
All Clinton failures!
