Let's also blame Clinton for the missing WMD in Iraq.

Too bad Bush didn't make a complete list of all the bad things he
inherited from Clinton when he took office. then he could have warned
the public.

The Repugs are just two-faced hypocrites. They love to blame Clinton for a recession that
started when Bush talked down the economy. Despite their desire to bash Clinton for Bush's
receission, they claim that Clinton had nothing to do with the eight years of record-setting
prosperity we had in this country and the best managed federal budget since WW II, but when

Clinton racked up 1.4 trillion dollars in debt, increasing the size
of that debt by 31%, that's hardly the best managed budget since
WW II. The best since WW2 goes to Truman, who increased the size of
the public debt by 3% during his two terms of office.

The last president who actually reduced the size of the public debt
was Coolidge.
