His lousy popularity because of 9/11 and his overall bizarreness, which would have become apparent even to the most brain dead voter once he was the President, would have led to a Republican landslide in the Congress, strengthening our hold on both houses.
The only variable would have been who would have been the Republican nominee in 2004. Whoever it ended up being could still have been a disaster.
W's only real accomplishments have been keeping the terrorists at bay (a major, key accomplishment, don't get me wrong), and appointing two conservative judges to the Supreme Court (ditto). Other than that, we might as well have had a Democrat in the White House.
He also lowered taxes which stimulated the economy. Even when the Dow went above 11,000 the press kind of slid over it, when it went above 14,000 little was said. Remember when it went over 10,000 during the boy president’s watch. The presstitutes were all over themselves with glee, telling us how wonderful the boy was for being our president at that time? During W’s watch all we’ve heard are the mistakes he’s made. During the boy’s watch, Rubin and that bunch kept fudging the numbers, but nary a word has been said about that, except a couple of little quips. Please, be a little more honest with you assessments.
