Not only the R's, but the D's as well. Let's not forget the Enron fiasco happened under Clinton's watch and he failed to catch it and it was his SEC's and DOJ's duty to do so. Enron's meteoric rise should have made eyebrows rise - but it, along with all of the other fraud, was overlooked. Plus, many D's have taken money from Enron. So, I blame all politicians for that one. Note: this does not mean I do not despise Bush more than most - I am just calling it like I see it

It always makes me cringe when people say "the economy was so much better under Clinton" - I always think well of course it was, it would have to be when two of the largest companies in the world (Enron and MCI/WC) were cooking the books and many many other huge companies went into debt trying to keep up with them. Then other huge companies were built on nothing but expectations (which is the public's fault IMO)

Thus, my rant for the evening - AND again, Bush sucks
