I heard some journalist bring up whichever candidate's it was slogan..."are you better off today than you were four years ago"...and it got me thinking (seriously for a change). This is what I realized.
When Clinton was el'Pres;
I was making more money
My 401K was a lot healthier
I didn't feel as if the government was spying on me constantly.
I felt a lot safer in the world.
The news was a lot more interesting
Now I don't side with any party, but those are the facts plain and simple.
I'd be interested to see how other "non-partisan" folk feel about it.

Hey Mosdef! Where have you been? Did your home village need it's idiot back for a while?
I never said it was his fault I'm just stating facts...and if things were better don't you think howdy-doody would be taking all the credit?

The Patriot Act was one of the biggest selling-away of human rights in western democracy in a long time... The sad thing was nobody stood up against it because the passed it by playing on people's high emotions after September 11th, so nobody dared question it, for fear of being labelled 'unpatriotic' and losing the vote in the next election.

I'm not a Bush fan, however.
I think the way you made the statement certainly made it seem like you were placing all of the blame on a certain person.

No sorry I don't want to find that crappy band.

If you judge it by the "better off 4 years ago" thing that every politician likes to use, then I'd say Clinton takes it. More money was good, and I think at least Canada liked us a little back then. That's not to say Clinton or Bush are the reasons for things happening, they just happened to be there at certain times. And it's a scientific fact that blow jobs make better news than weapons of mass destruction.

markies cop out!
Why are you here? You really hate the place and it's government.
Actually, on the racist theme...I heard a funny line today. Why is it black men get all bent out of shape when anyone brings up the stereotypes...except for the big dick one?

No, thats Mankies job.
I suppose I should have told him that his utopic America is just a glorious nostalgic view of things past, like one of those 50's movies, or like his hair and 36'' waist.

That is also incorrect....you take the piss out of all the newbies...I just call all the 'it' bands shite.
Smackie....Barcelona are close to a deal for Beckham, but I still say it will fall through and he'll be a red next year.

It's a typical June in Barcelona - somebody needs to become president and that's how they get elected - hype!
However, money talks in spanish football. I hear a deal for Rhonaldino is on hold pending the outcome the outcome of the Barca-Beckham proposal.
I can't imagine Rhonaldino on the right side instead of Beckham.

It will be a very unpopular move with the fans if United sell Becks to get goofy. Feck the money! United are the richest sports franchise in the world. 20mil (30 for Becks - 10 for Ronaldo) is a drop in the ocean for them.

I would tend to agree with the idea that we can't blame the current president for everything that happened in 2001 and for the economic recession that started around that time. But I would certainly agree with the fact that this presidency hasn't succeded at all in trying to improve the situation. We still haven't been told the true reasons for going to war in Irak. Afghanistan appears to be a mess and hasn't improved at all since the war there. The economy is not doing well nor improving, they don't give a shit about the environment... and what is worse, if you are american and criticize the government you will be called a traitor. Patriotism is the word that is killing freedom and economic recovery in this country.
I wouldn't mind having Van Nistelroy and Beckham in Barcelona next year. Actually, they are among the five best players in Europe.

I'm better off with the reign of good King W than under Clit-on. But then again, I own stock in Haliburton!

Yeah, and cigars weren't just for smoking in the Clinton regime. Anyone for a pizza party at Mankie's house this weekend? Bring your own coke!
