Economic prosperity under Clinton???? You talk about people not knowing whats going on?
Have you forgotten that the "boom" under Clinton was largely based on the "high tech bubble". Which quickly deterioated about 6 month before he left office?

Speaking about not knowing what's going on, ...was wondering how long before the 'Bobbsey Twins' bot and his alter ego lange would chime in, usually together, as they are wont to do.

Well just had to correct this GOP '6 month myth' on Clinton's boom. If you check the charts you will find that the stock market hit its all time highs on March 10,2005. Clinton's boom lasted 3 months over into Dubya's term and from that date 3/10/05 quickly deteriorated as Wall Street lost confidence in the direction Dubya was taking the USA. A massive deterioration that it is still struggling and recovering from. THANK YOU BUSH/CHENEY & CO........ :p

Would you please get off this European kick - we follow none of their policies to the extremes they do.

In addition our constitutional setup is very different from Europe including GB. We may share somethings but we are very different and I'm getting tired of you taking cheap shots at Canada.

Yes we are different than the US - and for that I'm glad for that. I only have to site the NRA's solution to that school massacre at Red Lake - Arm the teachers. *sigh*

Cheap shots at Canada????
Observations are now considered cheap shots?
Sorry BBK, but currently all answers to social problems within Canada, are usually answered with "The goverment should take care of it". This is exactly the same attitude that the Germans had almost twenty years ago. Look what a mess it is today.
You call it cheap shots. I call it caring about the country, I am currently living in.
Lighten up. Be more critical of your own leaders.

And barely articulate. Reasoned discourse is impossible without participants capable of reasoning. Mr. Woodpeckr, your diatribe is unworthy of you if you desire to spark other than contempt or slavish obsequiousness.

Now I got it...Woody is a paid US basher. His fee is paid on how many posts he can get for being outrages....
Wrong lange, you 'don't got it at all.' There is a big difference between being a Bush basher and a US basher which you fail to comprehend since you spend so much time 'browning' your nose on your knees behind your cowboy action-hero Dubya....must be your fees are directly proportional to how 'brown' your nose becomes.

Can't for the life of me understand why anyone would want to lick Bush's boots but then again you say you did spend some time in Germany where you no doubt acquired the taste...... :p

Some good news that has occurred: The Child Well-Being Index recently issued the following findings about children in the U.S.:

The adolescent and teen birth rate dropeed from 20 births per 1000 girls in 1992 to 10.9 births per 1000 girls in 2004.

Binge drinking among high school seniors has fallen form 36.9% in 1975 to 29.2% in 2004.

The number of youths age 12-17 who were victims of crime has declined from 120 per 1000 children in 1994 to 45 per 1000 in 2004.

Obviously, not everything is rosy, but the Index, in tracking 28 separate measures, shows that children's overall well-being is improving.

There was also some bad news in that Child Well-Being Index.

Namely that Child poverty was still increasing in the USA and that Infant Motality Rates in several big US cities were as bad or worse than many Third World countries.

All this happening in the 'richest' country in the world..... :(

Woody my good friend.

What are you doing about it?
Are you adopting a child? Are you giving money to help? Are you volunteering your time to help?
Tell us....
Where should the solution come from? From a goverment that is not capable of running the most simplest of organizations?
Or should it be people like you and me?

Lang,

I’m starting to think that Pecker is really just a simple thread posting program that reuses infantile phrases such as:
WoodPeckr said:
….since you spend so much time 'browning' your nose on your knees behind your cowboy action-hero Dubya…
WoodPeckr said:
The Jesusland map is live and well and many RW 'fundies' take it quite seriously even a few in Alberta want to jump aboard the 'new dark-ages' Dubya & Co bandwagon.
bla bla bla, I’ll spared you the daily Limbaugh rant.

I think we need to see if there is a Pecker 2.0 available with upgraded reasoning (even from the current Jr. High to Sr. High would be an improvement) spell checking and my auto-idiot identification filter to keep from posting “Amerikkka” and Hitler / Nazi phrases….. I fear that Pecker 1.0 will never be upgraded because if it’s been released for 40 years most have already lost interest.

The GOP always said government can't do anything right and that seems to be the case when the GOP is in charge, for that is when the most mis-management seems to occur.

Case point, on 3 levels;
The Fed is a fiscal economic disaster, under Bush/Cheney...remember Uncle Dicky is really calling the shots here. In fact right now DICK is trying to figure out a way to finagle another Tax-cut for the 'rich'....it's been awhile since their last 'gift' and they figure another 'gift' would give them the relief they feel they so badly need ...again.
In New York state Wacky GOP Gov Pataki is running NY state into the ground using that same Dubya formula (Borrow & Spend & let the kids & grandkids pay the bills) DICK invented.
In local Erie County NY politics an incompetent GOP Joel Giambra has blown the surpluses of his previous Dem County Executive and turned Erie county into a shambles.
Things do run better when Dems are in control.

As that comsummate Bushie boot-licker *bot* in all his slavish obsequiousness (like that phrase) would say...."Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys."....especially when the GOP is in power screwing things up at every opportunity available!

You have abandoned your original premise, that the American people (indeed the entire world) have entered dark times - "a sinkhole without bottom" - as a result of the actions of the present administration. I am probably giving you more credit than is deserved, but perhaps you have seen the errors of your views, how ridiculous they are in the light of day. Nevertheless, retreating to an argument that the D's do it better is akin to a child in kindergarden complaining about having to share his toys.

The central long term problem facing the USA today is our negative balance of trade and the rate that it is increasing. In fact, our deficit with Canada, our largest trading partner, grew by over 30% from 2003 to 2004. Rather than expressing despair over the differences between your perceptions and reality, perhaps you could enlighten us as to how this problem could be remedied.
