When half the dem delegates are agaist God and they lie in front of you and say two thirds weren't ...well I guess that is the tranparency you are looking for. Good for you!!!!, No doubt Obama will get in. Respond again in the middle of 2014 and let me know how that'woking our for you.
Reagan ended the Cold War.
Clinton bombed an aspirin factory and let bin Laden get away.
Romney/ Ryan have made. He also pointed out their lies!!!
fact Check came out today with all the lies clinton told. Check it out.
In fact, it probably distracted the public's attention from the fiasco that took place before the speech.
I certainly know that the media will be focusing on the speech rather than what took place before it. lol
Former President Clinton benefited from the late President Reagon,but like all democrats he was quick to take credit,but not the blame!
Plus I am wake and have been ever since I voted for former President Carter!
The democrats tricked him into doing that by promising cuts,which they never delivered on!
When Clinton followed Reagan's polices by cutting taxes the economy really took off,but this was after he lost control of congress,which in turn gave him another term!
It could be that you simply disagree with me,which is fine!
He initially raised taxes in 1993. Even though unemployment rates went down 9% between 1994 and 1995 real hourly wages growth significantly slowed down, increasing only 2 cents to $7.43 p/h in 1996 from $7.41. In 1995 (when Republicans took majority), Clinton was pressured by the Republicans to implement tax cuts (i.e…..capital gains tax cuts). These tax CUTS helped produce the 1990s boom NOT the tax HIKES. At this point the unemployment rate decreased by 26% between 1996 – 2000 AND the average hourly earnings increased from $7.43 in 1996 to $7.89 in 2000.
Clinton also benefited by the dot-com bubble. It wasn't His liberal policies that created revenue. The dotcom bubble created house gains in the stock markets and brought in hundreds of millions in unanticipated tax revenue from taxes on capital gains and rising salaries.
Also don't forget that he ruled under a Republican majority for 6 of the 8 years.
I'm pretty sick of both side of the aisle, but you forgot to bring something up...why couldn't GWB continue to do what Clinton did? After all, it was still the same congress for next six years after Clinton left.
Really Melvin...don't throw stuff around on message boards based on emotion have some facts to back it or for God sake read a newspaper.
