Ron Aragon: Clinton closed Castle; how can anyone praise him?

Regarding the latest diatribe against Fox News for being too Republican, but praising Bill Clinton? He left our government with a surplus, but our national debt still increased exponentially and has never been balanced, decreased or had a surplus. He got a government “surplus” by crippling our military, including closing Castle AFB! Obama is no different!
