But politically, Clinton was able to work with conservatives. So we got the welfare reform that Obama has now repealed by edict.

Yes he did but later he addressed the little problem of the loans/debt bubble concerning Freddie and Fannie.
When he brought up the bubble and fear about it breaking the banks, Bawney Fwank, the head of the banking committee, stood up on his hind legs, shouted him down as a “wacist!” Bush shut up and slinked off and the media did not cover it. The GOP did not pursue it. They did not even condemn Clinton and Rubin for cooking up a real estate crash even though they knew it was coming. They were afraid of mentioning the truth and being blamed by the banksters for popping that bubble a few years early.
“Partisanship” - honesty or political incorrectness - is beneath the Bushies so he left the GOP holding the bag and then the bubble imploded on his watch. That makes me angry that he let the Dems walk away with such a big lie without saying a word. His flase sense of superiority and manners brought communists under Obama to power and leaves Americans thinking that Clinton was a “moderate” hero who “balanced” the budget.
Move to the center? Fat chance Cruz. He won, we lost, now obama has flexibility and doen’t care what congress wants, let alone a what minority party senator wants.
If nothing else, hopefully we will no longer be confronted by the voting games from the Cornyn-Hutchinson duo where one voted no, one voted yes. Cornyn is up for re-election in 2014 so we shall see what effect Cruz’ presence has on Cornyn’s record going forward.
Clinton, Rubin and the banksters plotted the real estate market bubble. They did it because Republicans and Americans, in general, would not allow leftists to build low income housing projects anymore and they wanted racial quotas in home ownership. It was one of those public/private “partnerships” aka, fascism.
Bush and the GOP knew it was a mess but let it ride until it exploded like an bomb on the banks and left the (former) middle class of America holding the bag.
Let’s not follow Clinton’s example.
Obama will side step the law.
