The Clinton Recession... and Recovery?

Edited on Fri Feb-20-04 07:22 PM by bucknaked

Republicans love to bring up the NBER's (National Bureau of Economic Research) adjusting the start of the recession to March of 2001, to November of 2000, since (a-ha!) it was still during Clinton's last term. However, what's left out is that they also said the recovery, started in November of 2001.

Folks, what people don't realize, is that the Fiscal year starts in October. November 2001, would have been only 1 month into the enacting of Bush's first fiscal year/policies. 1 month and it all turns around? It's so ridiculous, desperate as they are, not even they would try to sell it!

It's going to be rough folks! Don't let them get away with anything!

1. Clinton fixed the Regan and Bush depression

Let's not ever forget that. My only problem with Clinton was his lack of support for Gays.
