I am amazed how much energy people are trying to make republican president look bad.
When they try to not mention Bill Clinton. For fair stake of argument and debates. Please include ALL time frame presidency that has contribute to what happen in America.
Ronald Reagan appointed Alan Greenspan to do federal rates and monitor the economy. Ironic - Ronald Reagan was Democrat but swing over to Republican. I am not sure when exactly he switched side.
Also the decline of market began 4th quarter of 2000. That was end of Bill Clinton administration. Then entered Bush administration. Bush had tough assignment with stock market falling and 9-11 World Trade center. No wonder Bush want to get out now and lead quiet life again.
I am trying to remain neutral perceptive of what the BIG picture of economy. I am looking at Greenspan's resign in 2006 and Berekes (spelling) took over to clean up Greenspan's mess of federal rate cuts.
There are too many factors that rest on the presidency and its administration. They share some burden but its not entirely their fault. Maybe you haven't noticed, I have not attacked Clinton's administration.
I am still unhappy with Clinton's affair. Tragic! Same with John Edward - another tragedy! Too much of our tax money went to Clinton's Ken Starr salary! I still applaud to Clinton, Bush and all presidents to be able to endure the burden of being president of USA. Its a tough job.
I think we should try imagine being in their shoe and know what is truly happening in America. Media only show bias of what they think is important. Bush and any president know much more than what Media knows.
We will need to wait 50 years before all classified file become de-classifed then we can really discuss what really happen during Bush administration.
