Transitions - what exiting Presidents gave incoming Presidents
George Herbert Walker Bush (Bush41) gave Clinton:
deficits
Somalia
anemic, weak economy
computers with no hard drives

William Jefferson Clinton gave Bush43:
the first surplus in decades
relative peace
"porn bombs in a copier" (unverified)
"vandalized offices" (unverified)
reams of notes about Osama bin Laden, al Qaeda, and other terrorists actions
relative peace in Bosnia

George W. Bush (Bush43) will be giving the incoming (Democratic) President:
record deficits that make Reagan look fiscally responsible
war in Iraq
war in Iran
war in Afghanistan
war in fill-in-the-blank
an embarassing and tarnished view of the US by the world

1. Tony Snow
I thought it was verified that Tony Snow made up the entire vandalized office story ... it gained steam when the incoming administration refused to dispute it. Tony Snow ... meet karma.

3. Don't forget Jeff Gannon's bodily fluids all over the WH bedrooms
I'd steam clean the entire place.

4. All that crap about "porn bombs" and missing "W" letters from keyboards

was all fiction and has been proven to be that.

I think it was Bushies trying out their new White House echo chamber to "catapult the propaganda" to the masses and see how much of it stuck. A very KKKarl Rove thing to do.

shitty economy, inflation (nonono, it's NOT inflation. you are looking at the wrong numbers!), quadrupled DEBT, unemployment.
but there is a little league diamond, so it's all good.
