NO POLITICS THIS WEEKEND! I PROMISE!
last word .
"I hear Fanch has a Pimp Cup and loves Kiss. I think that's all that really matters."
i know, the stock market really sucked while clinton was in office...
I know. The recession that started under Clinton when the dot.com bubble finally burst that Bubba was lucky enough to president through was horrible. Luckily W's admistration has turned it around.
That would be a real kick in the balls for my buddy who is sitting with me on NIGHT 2. His number is in the 140's. He just assumed my 102 would be a better seat and didn't buy tickets with his account..
That would suck for him!! Where is everyone hearing this rumor about them switching up the seats again?? I think someone should post a question or email 10C about it....if it happens again, obviously there was no mix up in Grand Rapids.

I was gonna say, Bill did a hell of a job turning a blind eye to the Enron's of the world as long as it made him look good and then let the incoming group take the heat for everything.

To be fair, the low interest rates (under Greenspan who Clinton wisely left in there) coupled with the Internet boom & bust are the wave of the Clinton economic story. The burst was before he left office, but it was an unprecented event. It couldn't keep trending upward as it was. Too much too quickly.
Some have argued that sending the FTC after Microsoft started the burst. The downward trend started tehre. You can't prove it either way but it should be mentioned.
Under W, Bush immediately lowered tax rates, including the largest pure rate cut (from 15% to 10%) for the lowest tax bracket. That's right; the lowest rate cut went to the bottom. Of course the rich received a larger cut, but this is due to algebra, not mean old white Christians. 2% of $900k is a lot more than 5% of $30k. This probably staved off the recession from being deeper than it was.
Also, the most recent quarter for tax receipts by the gov't was the second-highest gross ever. Pure numbers, can't argue with them. The same happened under Reagan; though he cut rates, receipts more than doubled from 1980 to 1988. Happened under JFK as well.
Bush's problem is spending. Plenty of taxes are coming in; just way too much spending. A simplistic statement but yes.
hahahhaha
you should all know by now i dont divulge my personal info on the board
Ohhh c'mon, we can all see it! You two are like two second graders who fight all the time because you like each other! Just hop in the back of Mike's SUV on Saturday and get it over with already! We'll keep an eye out for the "bat signal"!

I think I deserve some kudos for my Batman remark 4 pages ago that has really taken off and become the driving force of the thread today besides the conservatives against the hippie liberals.
I enjoyed that luxury at the Sheraton in Hartford. It's nice.
Get your tickets yet for tonight?
the dude who has my ticket dropped his cell phone in the toilet in cleveland so i haven't gotten in touch with him but i was told through the grapevine to show up at the ccfa thang to get it.
