A thought hit me as I contemplated suicide watching the elections. bush has never vetoed a single bill in his presidency. He has, except for a short period when his extremism scared moderate Jeffries to the Democrats side, had republican control of congress and the senate. It is likely that the republicans will hold control during his second term. Therefore it can be said by any logical person that bush has TOTAL RESPONSIBILITY for everything under his control from 2000-2008. Be it good or bad he CANNOT blame Bill Clinton or any Democrat Senator or Congressman. The economy, jobs, homeland security, environment, healthcare, education, War on terrorism (which is different from the war on terror), our standing in the world, etc, will all be completely his credit or his failure when we reach 2008. So if our economy is stale, our jobs average, our environment suffering, our children sick and uneducated, and our homeland hit by terrorists, and the world hating us, then I assume there can be NO EXCUSES from the president or his supporters.
Right now the progressives reading this are laughing. They know the future is bleak and they know that someway, somehow, it will be Clinton's fault. I'm not really that naive.
