The economy that was built on overpriced tech stocks and corperate fraud?

Isn't that the truth - I have maintained his economic boom was factious ever since the late 1990's - wish it would have collapsed when he was still in office.

Clinton's ministry of truth has won if that is how you remember it.  The dot com bubble, the prime mover behind Clinton's so called miracle economy, collapsed in 2000, while the toon was still in office.  The dot com stock market collapse started on 1/15/2000, but we were already coming out of it shortly after Bush got sworn into office just a year later, largely on the psychological boost that "the grownups are now in charge."  Things then fell apart again after 9/11 (well duh!).

The Clinton dot com / enron / worldcom fraud economy will be studied for centuries as the epitome of 20th century fraud at the highest levels.

Hey Txie-

Good to see you here.

Been avidly reading your posts regarding William Cohen's statement on the O'Reilly show - was that the radio show or the television show? Have been trying to find a transcript -

WJC gave us quite a little display today...I sure hope the blogosphere keeps rubbing his nose in it. This Cohen quote would serve quite nicely, I think.

Cheers - Dinah

"You intended to move your bones by doing this"

Don't you think he meant "make your bones?"

[Dinah Lord]

The dot com bubble, the prime mover behind Clinton's so called miracle economy, collapsed in 2000, while the toon was still in office.

Absolutely correct, Phsstpok.

And if I remember correctly the first domino to fall in the Clinton economy was the BIOTECH market - this was sparked by some clueless and boneheaded remarks made by none other than William Jefferson Clinton and our dear, dear friend Tony Blair at some DNA conference.

That was the prick that popped the market bubble.

The rest is Clinton legacy.

Bwa-ha-ha-ha.

Cheers - Dinah

[Howlin]

I was floored when she said it was a Janet Reno memo they were talking about..........it was HERS!!!

These people are detached from reality.

[Howlin]

I'd love to here Trent Lott take to the floor of the Senate and call him a liar, but I don't hold out much hope for that to happen.

[Morgan in Denver]

Agreed. I'd like to see Trent Lott do that too. The problem is I believe this is all calculated to change the subject away from Democrats failures on national security and the important issues we have today. They want to change the subject because they are behind in the polls, so they are making wild claims to derail our momentum for November.

[Bernard]

The dot com boom actually started to fade in late 1998 / early 1999, but most people missed that because of the increase in spending for Y2K. That's why the common date is 1/15/2000, because by that time everybody knew that Y2K had come and gone.

[Howlin]

I think you're right! I had the feeling today when he was talking about how the GOP always brings up security in even numbered years, he was bringing it up in case we didn't because for some reason he thinks it's a winner for them. And after watching him and Jamie Gorelick, I am convinced that they manipulated the 9/11 Commission to get the "answers" they wanted, i.e., leaving them out of the mix, and now they are going to DEMAND that each and every answer or story use that report as the Bible for any and all answers to questions about 9/11. Don't forget that they screamed loud and long that ABC's The Path to 9/11 didn't "conform" to the commission report.

Something is out there worse than even we know.

IIRC, the DOJ assult on Microsoft also played a part in the tech crash.

[Alas Babylon!]

That may be but Pets dot com IPO'd in February 2000 for $82 billion. I remember thinking, "Aside from the rude dog sock puppet, just what is it this company's gonna do that is worth that much?" I couldn't come up with an answer. It made no sense.

They failed, utterly, 9 months later. I sometimes wonder who scoffed all the cash. Heartless, but lucky bastard.

[rodguy911]

Way to go Kabar, richly deserved.

[Txsleuth]

Hi...It was Bill O'Reilly's radio show...and I don't think he puts out transcripts for those...but, I might be wrong.

I do remember posting about it that day..right after I heard it...I am not sure, which thread...but, I was dumbfounded.

This was the week leading up to the 9/11 movie..when we were all hearing about the Clinton's demands and threats to ABC for showing that movie.

I watched BOR's TV show that same day..hoping he would have Cohen on...or at least mention it..but he didn't...and I am pretty sure I also mentioned that...

I had forgotten about it until I heard Clinton getting all upset today about the "riqht wingers" saying he was obsessed with BIN LADIN...

Remember, it was during 1998 that Clinton pushed for the "Regime change" resolution in Congress...and they have shown footage on TV of him giving speeches, talking about the danger Saddam Hussein was back then...and the DEMS echoing him.

[Alas Babylon!]

Whoa! The above should be millions, not billions. Billions would be a lucky haul, indeed!

[rodguy911]

Absolutely, theme and diversion, nobody better at it than bubba.

[STARWISE]

LOL ... it sounded weird to me, but I swear that's what I heard him say. I think he was so flustered, he blended "get or earn your bones" and "move your (FNC's) numbers." When someone is that aggressively in your face, and physically and verbally overpowering, and so brash as to get into your physical space or TOUCHING you, for pete's sake, they have serious issues. And here it's in public .. on TV .. for millions to see the dissembling. This was like watching Bobby Knight in one of his fits.

Now contrast that to mr. velvet gloves, Timmy's interview. What a whitewash and sickening bowing down and ring/A$$ kissing .. so you see the two schizophrenic sides of Mr.Slick, and the public can see the split personalities.

The more they show him in the FNC interview .. the better it is for us.
