Ford healed the nation, Reagan bankrupted and divided it, Bush One made it a criminal

[Rabrrrrrr]

and a world enemy and completed the split, and Shrubbie has pissed on it, covered it in gas and set it on fire, laughing while it burns.


p.s. - I don't really think Ford healed the nation. All he did was what dysfunctional families do: pretend nothing happened and sweep it under the rug.

1. You saved me the trouble

of questioning your subject line when you added your highly accurate (IMO) p.s. :)

2. Here's the way I see it:

Nixon killed the fun in this country, Ford's job was to pardon Nixon, Reagan made everyone get jobs (while he and his cronies bankrupted the country), Bush I turned the US government into a criminal enterprise, Clinton kicked the criminals out, and Bush II continued where his dad left off.

3. Clinton also gave China MFN status and NAFTA

He also did help the little guy, but the help was for the short term, it seems.

4. I think that pretty well sums it up.

:applause:

I'd add that Clinton brought fun back to the country, too, and a spirit of hopefulness and goodness.

5. Bush didn't invent crime, either.

He just perfected it as a national pastime.

6. I didn't say he did.
