I really don't see anything positive that came from it
that's because you don't have your facts straight
Bush's tax cuts did not create the deficit, but his massive spending increases on medicare drug, Iraq, DHS, and the Federal Bureaucracy did
If he had grown spending at the same rate Clinton did, the budget would have been balanced in much of his 2nd term
I was with you until the end when you credited Clinton for controlling spending. I actually remember the 90s and Clinton proposed every spending program under the sun, and was told "no" by congress. He never reined himself.
