I always knew that Greenspan and the Rethugs threw a monkey wrench
into Clinton's economy. Just couldn't have all those new millionaire tech ingrates making so much money so fast.

"WASHINGTON (Reuters) — Federal Reserve officials knew when 2000 began that they faced volatile financial markets and kept interest rates rising until they saw clear signs of economic slowing in December, transcripts released Tuesday showed." USA Today

1. A*@$%! Dick Cheney never missed a chance to talk down the
economy in 2000. He had the US in recession on election day so that the circumstances would warrant their reckless budget cutting and taxbreaks for millionaires (you know, those asswipes who are supposed to invest to prop up the economy but instead stuff it in a mattress in the Cayman islands?).

2. I remember that clear as a bell and kept saying the military was weak, too
which REALLY sent a great signal to terrorists.
