Here are the facts:. The United States has released 425 terrorists from Guantánamo, at least 50 of whom have returned to the battlefield to fight our troops. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton both say they're fiscally responsible. But each has called for $1 trillion in tax increases over the next ten years—and dressed them up as tax cuts!. Mainstream Media has been given marching orders from the Society of Professional Journalists: never refer to "Islamic terrorists" or "Muslim terrorists." And they are obeying! Whenever our brave agents disrupt a terror plot, The media dismisses the culprits as a gang of idiots—lulling us into a false sense of security. If the liberals win the 2008 election, they will cripple talk radio—forcing stations to give equal time to left-wing programs, and insisting that liberals play a key role in station management. Up to a quarter of all state pension funds in the United States are invested in companies that are helping Iran, Syria, North Korea, or the Sudan—for a total of nearly $200 billion. The Do-Nothing Congress is still doing nothing—and the worst offenders are the presidential candidates Clinton, Obama, and McCain, who never show up for their day jobs as senators . . . except to pick up their $165,000 paycheck!.

James Bovard is no fan of Big Government and under the last administration it grew unhindered. In "feeling your pain", Bovard looks back at the Clinton-Gore record on such abuses and absurdities as taxes, gun control, the Waco fiasco, Americorps, and federal funding of everything from programs dealing with disaster relief to puppet shows in Northern California. He looks at Hillary Clinton and her new role as New York's Senator Clinton. He also provides a fitting coda to the last eight years as he looks at the pardons, protections, and downright nincom-poopery of Clinton's last days.
