I take issue with a lot of what he says here because Bartlett is a well known Bush hater and enough so to want to carry water for Clinton. No mention of the tech crash and declining revenues that Bush walked into, no mention of the Wall St. corruption that went on during Clinton’s watch that the Dems were able to blame on Bush (Enron) that prompted Sarbenes/Oxley, Clinton’s WH signed Graham Leach and pushed subprime lending. Clinton also had the Repubs in Congress refusing to go along with his spending plans and kept him in check. Bush did raise the red flag on freddie and fannie and he was crucified for even trying to limit social spending growth. When he talked about allowing people to own some of their tax dollars with respect to SS he was crucified for that as well.

Oh, and please don’t deny that Greenspan had nothing to do with our credit bubble Bruce.

Bush could have and should have made some different decisions but I don’t recall any democrats calling for less social spending.

You do well to remember this.

Click here for the ultimate b*tch-slap of anyone who accuses the current GOP of "scaring seniors" over the Obama Apathacare^TM Final Solution.
