    Not trying to be a smartass, Parso, but this is a pet peeve of mine. The proper word is "implies". He implies, you infer. You seem to be an intelligent fellow and I don't want you to give others the wrong impression.

    You're welcome.

    maybe he meant the article is incorrectly inferring conclusions about bush from the data in the survey. in fact i think that is what cparso meant. and i am an incredible genius when it comes to knowing what people mean. my reading skills are unparalleled.

    he will agree either way since he won't look stupid. so i don't believe it if he says he did imply such. lol

    "incredible genius" is redundant which nullifies any attempt you made at being one. you're basically a godless idiot wandering. Oh and the Mets suck.

    ok fine i am not an incredible genius, i am a godless idiot. but there are clearly various levels of geniuses. like 157 is just sort of impressive, but einstein is incredible. thus, "incredible genius" isnt redundant. fag.

    lmao @ 157. he's closer to 57 but he believes his own bs which is funny as hell.

    so no he's not a genius nor even close. maybe there's too many wannabe genuii.

    Oh well, waaah. :cry: Either get used to me using it or add me to you 'ignore' list. The latter appears to be a more necessary option for you ATM anyway. :dis:

    If I read one more time than the economic boom of the 90s had nothing to do with Clinton I may well vomit. The surge of internet technoloy that fueled the boom was brought on by massive federal funding of the internet and the information super highway that Clinton was directly responsible for. More signifigantly Clinton put America on track to be DEBT FREE. That hope is now nearly completely gone. I have talked to economists on both sides of the political road and have yet to meet one who did not think Clinton had a tremendous deal to do with the 90s.

    AS much as I dislike Bill Clinton personally, and as much as I detest his social policies he was a very good president. George Bush on the other hand who I really do try to like and voted for twice is not.

    Clinton was a good politician. I give him that.

    However, there's a few things you neglected to mention. Who controlled congress during the 90s? Republicans. What ended right before Clinton took office? A recession. How does the economy work? Cyclically - it goes up, then it goes down. Are you trying to infer that without government funding the internet wouldn't be what it is today? I disagree. Perhaps, and that's a big perhaps, it would have taken longer but capitalism would have exploited the internet with or without the government.

    Also, it's easy to put America on the track to be debt free when the economy is good. Tax revenue sky rockets. Add on to that the fact that the man cut the military by massive amounts & refused to take action when Osama & gang attacked us the first few times. If you ask me, he's more responsible for 9/11 than anyone.

    Feel free to vomit.

    1. darpa is a military program, conservatives do not oppose military spending. and that stuff is pre-clinton anyway.

    2. private money was bieng dumped by the zillions into tech in the 90's. federal (non-military) spending is stupid and hurts the economy. if anything, federal money in technology hurts the economy, by allowing private investors less money to invest more intelligently.
