Counting the Costs of Clintonism

$4 Trillion in additional debt and the most progressive tax code since Jimmy Carter. Sounds like a victory for W.
Of course his parting gift to America was Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House, Harry Reid, Senate Majority Leader, and of course Barack Obama.
George W. Bush: The "gift" that keeps on giving.

And we all get to see that disgusting AIG advertisement thanking us for their bailout.

Quin,
I respectfully disagree.
I wish you would have reminded people during your interview that the tax increases will NOT help grow the economy, will NOT help reduce the deficit, and will NOT help control spending so, therefore, should not have been implemented.
By helping prop up Bush Jr., you also helped prop up Barack Hussein Obama by justifying tax increases in a shaky-at-best economy.
No wonder republicans have a messaging problem.
Can someone explain to me why I should bother voting in the future?

It's time that Republicans admit Dubya was a disaster. Had there been no Dubya there would be no Obummer right now.

How much will W's taxes be raised?

W gave us Obama as Ford gave us Carter. I think Ford was worse than W, however.

The worst part about Bush was the concept that Islam could be civilized and modernized. Neither can occur; Sharia MUST be destroyed. One can either 1) start now and do it gradually, or 2) it can be done the Pat Buckman way. Failure to do (1) will lead inevitably to (2). I encourage all to read Tom Kratman's Caliphate for more elaboration on this.
