Ross Perot was right!
That dawned on me today. I mean, I sort of knew it, but today it really hit me -
Ross Perot was right, and we elected Bill Clinton instead. And Bill Clinton, well, as a friend of mine - a black, Alabama state and national card carryin' state and national told me at a campout a few years ago - Clinton was the best REPUBLICAN (in deed and action) president we ever had. And, if you look at his record of accomplishments and ignore his rhetoric, you'll find that to be a very true statement. As my friend pointed out - no republican party could have passed welfare reform, and probaly they could not have gotten the votes for
North American Free Trade Agreement (see
Public Citizen | NAFT).
That "
Giant Sucking Sound", it's world wide.
That should have been the progressives single slogan, the sound bite for the campaign, "Ross Perot was right!"
Well, leaving for the weekend. Back Sunday sometime.
