I agree, no matter what a politician does there is about half of the
people who think he did wrong. Unless we are the President, we will
never know. I have held or ran for office a few times and know
exactly what you are saying. My opinion (for what thats worth lol) is
that historically the Republicans have increased the defecit and the
Democrats have reduced or in the case of Clinton balanced it.
I would think every President should be forced to balance the budget
and stop unnecessary spending. No matter how it happened, Clinton's
administration did it, Bush Sr. Bush Jr, and Reagan didn't.
On a personal note, it is nice to be able to disagree with you on
certain political topics and still be able to see both sides. That
makes little sense, but hopefully you get my point.
