Actually, the 70's were called the "me" decade, while they were still going on. The peace and love types were angered by the more self-centred attitudes of people after the 60's. (I first noticed this change in May 1972, but that's a long dull story, just like this reply is rapidly becoming). I think it's only since the end of the 80's that revisionist lefty journalists and THAT crowd have been trying to slough the name off onto the Reagan years, not being content with having called that period "The Decade of Greed". Actually, considering that the "Decade of Greed" name was partly predicated on the stock market success, and that the stock market REALLY took off during the Clinton years, and that Clinton was a self-centred, self-aggrandizing jerk, I think we need to move "The Decade of Greed" name from the 80's to the 90's.

Let's call it the "lewinsky" decade, in honor (?) of what she did to him and what he did to us.

The Black Years

This symbolizes hardship, mourning and death. Everywhere you turned there was additional burdens being added (socialized health care attempt ~ blessedly that attempt failed) and deaths (unborn babies, expanded "peace-keeping" missions, and all those UOx42 associate "suicides") and damage to our constitutional rights (Elian Gonzalez).

Rather than memorialize it by giving it a name lets just ignore it and skip straight from the Reagan/bush years to the Bush years.

I don't even include those years in the list of presidents. The list ends Reagan, Bush, Bush.

clintons legacy is irrelevance. Lets keep it that way.

God Save America (Please)
