I have to echo bandlength and say, "Where's S(l)ick Willie?" Everything that is breaking now started on his watch, with most of it being the direct result of his efforts to save himself from impeachment and conviction.

What do you think?

Clinton.

Rubin.

Justice Dept (Reno).

Greenspan.

Congress.

This is a LOUSY poll. Hardly any of the correct choices are listed!

None of the above. They need a NWO choice.

I will stake my entire retirement nest egg, and my house money, and my car on the assertion that EVERY SINGLE ONE of the CFOs and executives who are implicated in these corporate scandals - EVERY ONE got his job during the Clinton administration.

That evil bastard lowered the moral tone in this country to such an extent that it became not only tolerable, but quite permissible - nay, nearly mandatory - to lie and cheat. As long as it was for the "good of" someone - the shareholders, the country, the economy - it was all okay.

Through reply 11:

Clinton - 4
Fed Reserve Board - 1
NWO - 1

Intersting that the Communist Nucklehead Network doesn't have any of these as their choices.

It is not necessary that they all got their jobs from 1993-2001-but it is certain that they got their education when Bill & Hill did, or after-and in similar venues.

Bush and the current Congress. They've been on a spending spree that would make LJB and Nixon drool.

Why not email Lou Dobbs and ask him why his site's poll is so biased, missing the Clinton, Rubin, etc choices? He's actually a rather conservative guy, and he almost certainly doesn't waste his time picking the poll question that gets dumped on his page every morning, so he'll probably be really pissed to discover how biased it is. Even better, he has an AMAZING temper, and will be guaranteed to really ream out whoever is responsible for the Bush-hate poll.

Email Dobbs: Lou.Dobbs@turner.com

They left out the biggest contributor, the stupid and greedy public who poured money into a no equity market.

I still contend that the biggest contributor to the inflation of the market is the ever increasing insurance and pension funds that have increased a a far faster rate the the available stocks and the bidding war esculated the price to levels that only a fool would put their money into.
