The blame needs to be put on all the last 4 presidents. Not one of them was all that great, three ( Bush, Bush jr., Obama ) have screwed up the economy bad, and the other ( Clinton ) even though he tried to fix the economy was caught in a major scandal.

It's fairly cowardly to pin the blame for the world's woes solely on a few men, when society as a whole has a profound role to play in everything. At the end of the day, the majority of you guys voted those men into office and continue to vote similar people in.

People continually complain about warmongering policy, inadequate economic provisions and dire presidents totally incapable of doing their jobs, but you continue to vote in these narrowly separated Democrats and Republicans. There are over 30 minor parties and 5 major ones in the US, many of which have far more innovative, long-term policies regarding finance and overseas conflict.

If you guys want a change, vote for someone else. That's what I'll be doing next election.

I find it strange that this is the second Malaysian plane to go down mysteriously, within the last 6 months or so. :/ Just sayin'.

What I think is absolutely irresponsible about that, is who's bright idea was it to fly a commercial airliner over a warzone? Ummm, that's common sense to me. It was 100% preventable on that alone. Especially when you know the people on the ground are fighting and have surface to air missiles. How come no one is talking about that?

We may not ever know what really happened, but I think the most likely scenario is the rebels fired on it thinking it was a regime plane. Not an unreasonable assumption, they've probably been targeted by airstrikes before and just looked at it as self defense. Probably a true blue mistaken identity case. Now it's just a matter of people twisting the tragedy around to fit whatever political narrative they want to push.

Clinton's economic legacy was this, he agreed with a republican congress and the dotcom boom.

He did nothing to help it and lucked into it.....then the dotcom bubble burst.
