That's the key - can they actually do something with nothing.
Can
they keep the economic momentum moving in a positive
direction,
can
they actually come up with a good plan to get us out of the
mess
in
Iraq and I think even more importantly, can they actually
emulate
the
Republicans and toe the party line without inter-party
squabbling
they
are famous for.

More importantly than that is this - can they do it without
reducing
the economic power of the middle class by staying away from
taxes
and
more entitlement programs.

It will be an interesting couple of years.


How many think that we will be sinking into a deep recession by
this time
next year?
Unfortunately, I do.
The recession has already started.
Then it's the republican's fault!!
BK, you haven't been paying attention. It's Clinton's fault. You
have
to go back two terms to find the blame.
Ooops, I forgot!! Everything is Clinton's fault. I wonder how they'll
blame the fall of Rummy and the Bush administration on him.......
That's how Rs justify Clinton's success. Going back two terms puts
you
in Reagan territory, savior of all mankind, but especially rich
bankers
who robbed the American public blind.

What gets me is that the Republicans CLAIM to cut taxes. They don't.
They just shuffle money around to make it LOOK like they do. Take for
instance in GA. Up until Gov. Perdue took office, a Republican, we had
one of the best lottery for education purposes going. The HOPE
scholarship. Keep a B average in high school, you get first years
tuition and books paid to any in-state school. Keep a B average in
college, it continues. Worked VERY well.
When Perdue got into office, he almost INSTANTLY started putting his
slimey hands on the HOPE grants, and made new much more strict rules
and payment restrictions on it, using the money for other things.
Is the lottery a tax? You started out by mentioning taxes.

LOL!

And the larger paychecks we saw because of less taxes being taken out
were
just figments of our imagination according to him also. The paychecks may
have LOOKED larger but they really weren't. ;-)

That's *our* Bassy for you.
What an idiot. If you got a bigger paycheck because of tax cuts, but
spent more because of the the inflation that it caused, that's somehow
a good thing? What a dolt.

Hasn't inflation been pretty tame for a while now?


Tame compared to what? Everything is relative, you know. Did you ever
understand the lottery/taxes situation that is occuring here in GA?


The GA Hope Scholarship still provides tuition to B students.
