Reagan, in a speech later rewritten for Dumbya, claims that Democratic control of the Senate will threaten national security.

Somethings never change.

Chris Wallace - actually pretending to be a real reporter for the holiday - followed up that the WH couldn't explain how that would happen.

Somethings never change.

The Democratic took over later that year ... and nothing happen.

Somethings never change.

The WH also said that Reagan's remark wouldn't be a problem in working out Reagan's new legislation.

Somethings never change.

3. Never Mind That Clinton Did NOTHING
About the original twin towers attack and the USS Cole and the two Embassies, etc. Both idiots are to blame.

5. Not quite future tombstone ....
The original Twin Towers attackers are in prison

Clinton Adminstration didn't know exactly which group of people attacked the Cole and outgoing Adminstrations usually hold off on actions and left it to the incoming Adminstration (since they'll be there for the next years) to decide what to do ... so what did Bush do about the USS Cole???

Clinton did go after bin Laden after the Embassies bombing, but Republicans in Congress wanted him to answer questions about Monica instead.

2. He was worse than Bush.
He was the worst of the worst. Bush is incompetent. Reagan was much more disciplined and ideologically-driven. For that reason alone, he was worse.
