But Obama did that one thing that one time! Tea bags! Socialism! White Slavery! Blarghleblarghleblargle!
[...] The answer is No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no and no. Story is here [...]
“Miss me yet” … what, is he, like, an ex-boyfriend/stalker now? Is Bush gonna start calling us now, and hanging up when we answer?
No, douchenozzle. The 70-plus percent of us who disapproved of your job performance do not miss you. We don’t want to have anything to do with you. It’s over, George. We broke up with you. Get over it.
Yeah Bush. We don’t want you. In fact, we were so pissed that we allowed you to reach term limits. Take that, fool. And that’s how we broke up. By electing you twice. (Your sarcasm in the form of the Florida recount will not be tolerated)
Hey, buddy: Obama still massively outpolls Bush:
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2010/2/9/835464/-Minnesota-Billboard-shows-Bush-with-line:-Miss-Me-Yet
Sorry, nobody misses the Dim Son.
What do you do for a living?
You mean he was re-elected in 2008? Wow!
Sorry, dude. You know full well that he stole it in 2000. Nice to have one’s brother Jeb as governor of the most corrupt state in the nation, eh? And to have a Supreme Court justice who refused to retire if she had to do so under a Democratic president.
You also know full well that he used 9/11 like the Nazis used the Reichstag fire: As a reason to scare everyone into doing his bidding, with the GOP/Media Complex 100% in lockstep behind him. That’s what got the GOP their landslide in 2002, and the aftereffects (plus the “can’t change presidents during a war” theme that Republicans always like to play when it’s their guy in the Oval Office) were enough for him to eke out a bare win in 2004. (How compliant was the GOP/Media in this regard? MSNBC cancelled Phil Donahue’s show even though it got the best ratings on the fledgling network rather than allow anyone to have a prime-time platform to criticize Bush’s war in depth: http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=1825)
But even with the press in his corner, his ratings started to drop like a stone once 2005 rolled around.
This is dumb. I get that you don’t miss him, and neither do I. But showing those photos is dumb, they have nothing to do with why we don’t miss him. Most of the “issues” the pictures represent are not even his fault.
cmbsweden here: excellent answers all.
At this rate, echo chambering oneself into insanity is gonna wind up in the DSM-V.
Are you sure this was put up by conservatives? Because I’m pretty sure not one of them has mentioned W in the last year.
‘Are you sure this was put up by conservatives?’
Are you suggesting it was Liberals? The people who never wanted his sorry ass in the first place?
Why would we miss you? So your douchebag followers who helped you run the country into the shitter for eight years could once again hold the reins of power? And instead of just blocking progress, they could be actively working against it again? Is that why we should miss you? Really?
How many paint chips does one have to eat for that to make sense?
What “progress” has Barry Soetoro made in the last 13 months?
Who cares what Barry Soetoro has done? He’s not the President. Come on. Do something new.
Obama has done nothing but spend.
The democrats had the budget process when Bush was president, they still do and we are still going down.
Maybe you should thing with facts not emotion.
Any economics undergrad can tell you that government spending can help economies out of recessions, depending on where the money’s being spent. As long as it comes with what we call a multiplier effect, it’s beneficial.
Look it up, and understand it before you throw up your arms and say “wuh he’s just spendin money! That’s bad, right?”
Hell, even your guy Dick Cheney says “Deficits don’t matter.“
Some spending is fine, but where did the first $787 billion get us? Not very far. Perhaps you should take that undergrad class again?
‘Some spending is fine, but where did the first $787 billion get us?’
Would that be the nearly $800 billion that Bush’s flunky Paulson handed out without oversight or transparency? Or did you mean the stimulus money Obama authorized that most Republicans railed against publicly but were quick to take credit for during photo ops in their home districts?
Class dismissed.
‘The democrats had the budget process when Bush was president, they still do and we are still going down. ‘
Democrats took control of Congress in 2006; 6 years into Bush’s 8 year tenure, and didn’t obstruct every policy Dumbya pushed, because he and the Right wing had done such a great job of branding anyone who opposed him as a traitor in league with terrorists.
And you want to talk about thinging with facts?
Thanks for agreeing with me Xac. Obama, do something new.
Please clarify, Chrome-Colored Cap Pistol: is it Barack Hussein Obama II, born August 4th, 1961 in the state of Hawaii, who is the object of your scorn, or is it this fictional character, “Barry Soetoro”, parentage and birthplace unknown?
No Nurse Psycho. The object of my scorn is delusional morons like you who voted for a clueless twit who has done NOTHING but spend.
Oh yes, like you and George W. Bush. A guy who doubled the national debt while he was in office. GOD,jealousy and denial is a straight bitch, ain’t it? Just pisses you off shit didn’t work your way, doesn’t it?
So basically what the wingnuts are saying is that they miss the guy that doubled the national debt because the fella that replaced him spends too much.
…in answer to my original question, apparently it takes a metric fuckton of paint chips.
How about the idiot who tripled Bush’s deficite! Bush took 8 years and the current spend-o-holic did his thing in one year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Actually, nobody except for diehard racists misses Bush:
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2010/2/9/835464/-Minnesota-Billboard-shows-Bush-with-line:-Miss-Me-Yet
I’m racist for questioning what Obama has accomplished in the last 13 months?
I miss him. I liked the guy. Nobody every called me a racist.
‘The object of my scorn is delusional morons like you who voted for a clueless twit who has done NOTHING but spend.’
That’s funny; that’s exactly how people with active brain cells all over the world felt about Gee Dumbya.
“Why would we miss you?”
Well, how many people are unemployed, today, who would not be if Bush was still in office? 20 million? More? And counting.
Wow, retards CAN find their way onto the Internet!
The unemployment picture would be FAR WORSE under Bush’s failed policies. Even the most stupid Republican (I know, I know– redundant) now acknowledges that Obama’s stimulus has actually CREATED jobs. But it didn’t go far enough.
But you teabaggers and stubborn arch-conservatives are just pissed off because the money’s going to n****rs and sp**s and f*****s and d***s and not just to deserving white men.
You’re all just a bunch of f***ing racists who are upset at the uppity colored guy telling you what to do. Hillbilly jerks. Just go away and get your intellectual stimulation at the usual place: a NASCAR race (“where drunk rednecks go to watch other drunk rednecks drive fast and turn left”).
How many jobs did $787 billion get us? I guess you aren’t aware that unemployment is still at 9.7%. What’s with all those four letter words? Were you “intellectually stimulated” to use them?
RW in LGB and your calling who a racist? When you point one finger at someone remember your pointing four more back at yourself.
actually only three point back at you. i checked.
‘Well, how many people are unemployed, today, who would not be if Bush was still in office? 20 million? More? And counting.’
Remind us again which President utterly tanked the economy by mismanaging two wars, one of which was wholly unnecessary, then pushed it off a cliff by giving the richest 1% of the country the largest tax cuts in history during a time of unregulated financial speculation and criminality while maintaining the markets would correct themselves?
Who was that again?
I think your the 1 that should have a cup of chips!!!!
Are you people crazy? Who wants Bush back? And who wants Obama now? We gotta fix this Congress. Obama campaigned on many Issues: Closing Guatanamo Bay. Getting troops out of Iraq. Finishing the job in Afghanistan, Health Care reform, etc., etc. as nauseam. And speaking of Health Care reform, it was his number ONE priority (domestic or foreign), and he has nothing to show for it, except the DEADLIEST year (2009–he was Commander-in Chief) in Afghanistan, because his Socialist Health Care “Reform” took precedence over some of our best and brightest young lives. He is responsible for those deaths because he had his agenda (Socialized Medicine) as a priority over SAVING YOUNG PEOPLE’S lives.
Obama campaigned for 2 years (after only serving as a Senator for 2 questionable years?) then took 9 months to address options for our policy for the Afghanistan war, then took 3 months to weigh his decision based on what option would enhance his reelection ambition. Meanwhile, during that year (possibly longer since he had ample time to come up with a strategy while campaigning), the troops already deployed there were sitting ducks, many getting picked off by Al-Queda, the Taliban, and Afghans.
Ask yourself this question: If you had a kid already deployed to Afghanistan, and waited a year for our ?Commander-in-Chief? to decide on a strategy, and your kid was killed during that year, would you still support Obama as the Commander-in-Chief? If your answer is yes, you are absolutely insane.
Excellent questions Thomas. Looks like the guy with the answers is attempting to answer questions no one is asking. Kind of like a lifer politico.
1st, Health Care…the only people complaining about health care reform are people who already have access to health care. The bottom line is the insurance corporations only care about making money. Universal healthcare works, just ask the children at St. Jude’s, where everyone is treated with the same level of care regardless of income or status. Socialism, did you know that every public service that you receive is ran by the government…police, fire department, roads, Medicare, military ect are all social programs. So for all of you guys that are against social services great, you cannot pay taxes and in exchange you will not have access to any social services and let’s see how long the average citizen is able to sustain themselves. Some of you forgot the last commander in chief had eight long years to fix the economy, health care, Iraq, Afghanistan and really did nothing but made some bad situations worse. Take it from someone that has fought on both war fronts, it’s bad no matter who is in office, and if there was any simple solution then it would have been implemented. I hear a lot of people complaining about the health bill but no one has yet to come forward with a solution. But in Bush defense, I am 90% sure that he had nothing to do with that billboard being posted, let that man enjoy his retirement…and let focus on helping our current President with rebuilding this nation.
Well said, Outkast.
Thank you for being just about the only person here with common sense.
Common sense? If this new healthcare is so great why don’t the Congressmen and Senators want it for themselves? It sux and they know it!!!!!!!!
‘If this new healthcare is so great why don’t the Congressmen and Senators want it for themselves? ‘
Because they already HAVE health care they DON’T PAY FOR, and their wealthy insurance corporation sponsors have made it clear they won’t be donating any more fat cheques into their re-election coffers if they support any reforms that would ensure that ALL Americans receive quality health care at a reasonable price, as that would cut into the multimillion dollar bonuses the CEO’s and other executives of these for profit conglomerates currently enjoy.
First of all, I agree that St. Jude is a wonderful facilty but to compare it to Universal Gov Healthcare is wrong. St. Jude is NOT a government run fcility. It is private. It has HUGE corporate backing (just see their list of partners). If you would like to compare some of the current gov. run entities such as our military to a gov. health plan – then, heck no, I don’t want Universal Healthcare! (Too be clear – I’m speaking of the management of the military system not the soldiers.) We have systems in place for the un-insured, it’s called Medicaid. Let’s fix, improve, build upon, whatever you want to call it – and get our citizens covered. Stop trying to reinvent the wheel and make some progress.
Of course we are complaining we work hard for what we have. Why would we want to work more for someone else?
The bottom line is we as a country can’t afford to pick up the slack.
Let’s work on the schools maybe they could get a job and pay their own way.
The bottom line is we as a country can’t afford to pick up the slack.
But we can afford to kill brown people half-way across the planet?
Of course we are complaining we work hard for what we have. Why would we want to work more for someone else?
Because we live in a society. No man is an island, and whatnot.
This guy (Obama) has gotten everything free all his life,
WHAT?! This has got to be the most retarded (yeah, I said it) criticism of Obama I have ever seen. Obama, who grew up in a single-parent household, who had to pay for his education with scholarships, got everything “handed to him”? And Bush, who grew up with a rich daddy and a trust fund, who got a legacy admission, and was given businesses to ruin, was a “hard worker”?
He is the KRYPTONITE the STUPID voted for last fall.
That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
Say what you like, I had a job when Bush was in office.
Yeah, too bad the Supreme Court struck down those anti-sodomy laws, huh.
The problem is that the average IQ is 100, so for each of us who comprenhends, there is at least one who does not.
You have absolutely no idea how IQ works, do you?
The only people who miss Bush are those who are turned on by needless death.
Obama, who grew up in a single-parent household, who had to pay for his education with scholarships, got everything “handed to him”?
Yes, his step-father was in the oil industry.
And, you are at Oliver Willis – Like KRYPTONITE To STUPID, stupid.
Yes, his step-father was in the oil industry.
That’s it? That’s your proof? His step-dad worked for a company? What evidence do you have that Obama was actually handed anything?
And, you are at Oliver Willis – Like KRYPTONITE To STUPID, stupid.
I know that, but the sentence:
“He is the KRYPTONITE the STUPID voted for last fall.”
Makes no sense. Unless, most likely, he has no idea what kryptonite is.
Lolo Sotero was a government relations consultant with Mobil Oil. He didn’t own shit. Just like a Republican who believes H.W. Bush and Sotero lived next door in Kennebunkport and shopped together at Brooks Bros. God, you lay your shit so thick, its a wonder you don’t peel the paint off your walls.
It’s Soetoro. How do you know what Lolo had or didn’t have? And don’t you think an oil company consultant has “friends” that can help his step-son?
Just A Guy… With common sense.
and according to you, common sense means goatfucking.
and according to you, common sense means goatfucking. I see

1st off thanks for your service, i am still currently in….but just so you know i hear that argument alot, the whole civil service thing…..military and national defense is in the constitution to be provided by the fed. as for police, fire, etc. that is run by the state…….”The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” this is the 10th amendment…
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.” the preamble if you not states to promote the welfare of citizens not provide…..and the rest of it is the have established earlier said institutions to provide those other silly things……est. justice, insure domestic tranquility, PROVIDE FOR THE COMMON DEFENSE, and secure the blessings of liberty…..need the civil servants to make sure that liberty is never abriged.
I actually heard a man at the local Social Security office not too long ago ranting about Obama and Congress turning America in a Socialist nation and how we here in Texas need to secede from the union. All that while filling out his disability paperwork.
1. laguhable 2. dont agree with s.s. 3. its unconstitutional and a huge ponzi scheme 4. thank FDR self titled social engineer or something to that effect, read “the forgotten man” wonderfull insight into his presidency and the horrors that he able to push thru……scarily familiar to right now.
I agree with the comment above that it would be strange for conservatives would craft or circulate a poster so rich in irony, and especially with a photo that seems to illustrate Bush’s most irritating traits. So it’s probably a joke. But with conservatives, you can never be sure.
NO ONE was forced to purchase a house they couldn’t afford.
Why is anyone concerned about how they are viewed by Europeans? A continent of candyasses that, collectively, is worse off than the US. Suckling the governments teat is NOT a responsible or sustainable way to run a country. Who said, “Socialist governments traditionally do make a financial mess. They (socialists) always run out of other people’s money?” British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, in 1976.
George W. Bush did NOT build the city of New Orleans. You know, the city that is AT or BELOW SEA LEVEL. A bowl. Bowls hold water. George W. Bush did NOT build or maintain the levees for the bowl. George W. Bush did NOT appropriate the funds for the building or maintenance of the bowl.
Is obtaining information, by any means possible, such a horrible thing if it prevents another World Trade Center type attack? NO. What would Al Gore have done about 9-11-01? Not much. Would this have resulted in more attacks on US soil? Probably.
Please tell me how Al Gore would have made things so much better.
Please tell me how Barry Soetoro has improved this country in the last 13 months. He is the KRYPTONITE the STUPID voted for last fall.
NO ONE was forced to purchase a house they couldn’t afford.
Likewise, no one was forced to gamble billions on commercial real estate with an ARM, but they did, and now huge office buildings that WERE NOT bought by po’ folks who didn’t understand finance are in foreclosure, costing the banks more than all the po’ folks added together.
No one forced banking executives to gamble with billions of other people’s dollars and get bonuses when they lost everything, but they did and they did.
Let’s blame the po’ folks for playing fast and loose with all their investors’ money.
Wait.
Bolwjob Bill was the one that repealed the 93 yr old law that made it illegal to do credit default swaps(gambling on mortgages). Thanks alot Bill. And thanks alot Barny Frank for watchdoging Fannie & Freddy, U are now the moral center for the whole Dumbocrat party. LOL
Well, yeessss there’s always a few Republican gun nuts who think AWOL Bush is great because they hate the libruls.
AMEN!!! The liberals will never get it!
Amen to Chrome-plated gunslinger.
well said…..these people seem to forget not only were people buying houses that they couldnt afford but those loose loans were a result from the clinton administration and were continued to be pushed thru the dem. congress with loose regulations. when mccain and bush and others had brought this up, unfortunately not loud or long enough they just let it continue on the downward spiral and the worst offenders of the housing bubble….barney frank and chris dodd one was screwing a fannie mae exec. and the other was getting rediculous sweetheart deals.
In addition to this post itself, a quick web search about this indicates this is making the rounds much more commonly on liberal blogs than conservative ones. Is there some reason to not just admit that?
I bow humbly to your quick web search.
Say what you like, I had a job when Bush was in office. Let me qoute one of Clintons Buddies “It’s the Economy Stupid”. Obama has done nothing to improve this countrys economic cituation, except react slow and threaten people who can’t afford Health Ins (because they don’t have jobs) with fining them or throwing them in jail.
This guy (Obama) has gotten everything free all his life, how can you expect him to understand people who work for a living? The only thing he is interested in is taxing working people and giving it to those who don’t work.
How stupid is this?
Would you like me to continue?
jbd
http://blogs.ajc.com/kyle-wingfield/2009/11/30/obamas-cabinet-this-graph-explains-a-lot/
Ha..
Ha, ha!
I hope this represents an electoral strategy and not just Commander Guy fetishism.
9/11 was an inside job. And it was Bush who did it; it was well planned before he ever came into office. Obama works for the same people as Bush, globalist elitist banker scum!
Inside job????? Are you stupid????
I think it’s funny.
We’ll see how long the country lasts giving away billions to the undeserving who think they should get everything for free.
And by that I’m sure Travis is referring to the Bush Bank Bailout.
U mean the one the dumbocrat congress forced him to sign?
bush spent half he could have veto’d he also made the comment ” im going against free market policies in hopes this will help the economy” it was something to that effect. then upon leaving office b.o. asked him to release the 2nd half of the money…..which people forget to attribute to both men..
christ when will you people get it…..it was wrong than its wrong now…..doesnt make a bit of difference whos f’n doing….is it ok for one to muder and another to not? stop making rediculous arguments it sounds incredibly unintelligent!
stop making rediculous arguments it sounds incredibly unintelligent!
Snerk!
Travis, would you be referring to the richest 1% who expect more tax breaks and the corporations who demand more deregulation?
aaaaaaaannnndd…..how many poor people ever gave you a job? I’m not in the richest 1%, but my taxes are going up when the tax cuts expire.
Whiner.
Hey Carl did you know that top 10% earners pay over 60% of all taxes and about 50% of all Americans pay no Federal Taxes at all? Please let me know how is it then possib le that Obama gave a tax break to 95% of all taxpayaer? Last time I looked those numbers don’t make sense. Instead of just attacking thos eof us who work hard and make money to support more that 50% of people who pay no taxes shut up and get a job.
Please let me know how is it then possib le that Obama gave a tax break to 95% of all taxpayaer?
Because unlike you, he knows how math works.
Your stupidity doesn’t make someone else wrong.
Instead of just attacking thos eof us who work hard and make money to support more that 50% of people who pay no taxes shut up and get a job.
There is no “50% of people who pay no taxes.” Around 50% of people don’t pay federal income tax. You know who just said that? You did, in the previous sentence of your barely-legible comment. You really look stupid here.
Hey Carl did you know that top 10% earners pay over 60% of all taxes
Really? What percent of the income do they get?
None. They GET absolutely nothing.
They EARN their money. Money that you want to take away for your selfish ideological purposes. For god’s sake, use your own damn money for your ideological whims.
when has there ever been anyone in the ” i dont have to pay any tax, im getting money from obamas fund, i dont have to pay for gas anymore” bracket that provided you with a job and income to pay your bills….dont you think it be fare for everyone to maybe pull a lil bit of the weight so as we’re not providing for those who choose not for themselves….there should be limits on welfare…..incentivize to get off or not get on at all….welfare is assistance not a supplemental income for some to go and sling crack live in shack with an escalade parked out front
Joe, just come out and say it, man. You know you want to.
Oh, I meant Josh. I’m getting my crazy people confused.
Josh, 1980 called, it wants it’s welfare queen back. You can just say niggers if that’s what you want to say, we all know that’s what you mean.
Enlightened?
We’ll see how long the country lasts giving away billions to the undeserving who think they should get everything for free.
Which defense contractors do you think we should keen after getting rid of the ones you are describing?
Anyone else notice that the home foreclosures started the same year the Democrats took over Congress? Thanks Barney Frank and Chris Dodd!
AMEN!
Anyone notice these irresponsible loans that were starting to foreclose that year were all made during the years that the GOP had Congress and the Oval Office? Just saying…
I certainly don’t miss his policies, but unfortunately, that’s because they are still here.
I voted for change, but got more of the same.
Bush wasn’t our greatest president, but I bet history will show him to be much better than the one-term president Obama will turn out to be. My answer to “Miss Me Yet” is Definitely.
http://www.fatherlyadviceandrants.com/definitely.html
Ladies and Gentleman, the intelligence of a fool who cannot nor does not recognize reality.Miss Bush’s first term huh? You mean the one where he squandered a surplus over four years? You mean the one who never went to the CBO to see if he could pay for his bullshit programs that leave us in more debt? The one who put us in a war under false pretenses? You want that back, huh? And you wonder why liberals call you stupid.
liberals call republicans stupid to try to hide their own stupidity. Bush spent the money protecting us. How much $ is too expensive?
ok obviously ignorrance is bliss…..are you really gonna turn a blind eye to the fact that while yes bush racked up and obsurd debt 2.7% over GDP thru 2 terms…….while gues what your boys is…..you ready…..one year 5.7% over GDP. so if your gonna site the bad that bush did atleast be accurate with this potus aswell……and the other thing atleast we didnt look like a bunch of spineless french pusses in front of the world becasuse soft diplomancy is apparently working great, hows going for ya iran
Let’s see here.
1. No capitalization, except for GDP.
2. Overuse of ellipses (hint ellipses have only 3 periods)
3. Misspelled ignorance, absurd, through, cite, at least, as well, didn’t, because, diplomacy, and how’s.
4. Lack of punctuation where appropriate.
5. Apparently, we have another bloodthirsty lunatic who hates brown people. Surprise surprise.
Here’s a hint, if you want to be taken seriously, learn English.
what couldnt attack content great argument!
i am brown you f’n retard
Sure you are.
you truly are a special breed of person…………tell ya what do the world a favor and check out obviously you have no idea what your talking about, cant argue substance……go play in traffic!
Ladies first.
one last thing it wasnt a surplus @ the end of clintons term he was .8% over GDP
Wow, Oliver. That was some seriously good troll bait you put out last night.
Personally, I miss him. Oh, boy, do I miss him. MTV hasn’t been the same since he and Beavis quit commenting on music videos.
All informed and intelligent people realize that W will go down in history as one of the best presidents we have ever had the good fortune to enjoy. The problem is that the average IQ is 100, so for each of us who comprenhends, there is at least one who does not. And those people vote AND blog !
No one could embarrass the country quite like old George. Quite good at getting Americans killed, too.
Remember the “Christmas day bomber”? It was in all the papers dumbell, only dumb luck saved 200+ americans that day. Otherwise your hero B.O. would have gotten them killed, or would you have blamed that on Bush also?
Remember the “Christmas day bomber”? It was in all the papers dumbell, only dumb luck saved 200+ americans that day.
I bet W was wishing he had some of that dumb luck when he sat in that elementary school classroom back in 2001.
wasnt it clinton who tried assasinating bin laden and failed @ every level then left that in ohhhhh yeah bushs lap here ya go lil buddy!
Am I following this correctly?
9/11: Clinton’s fault!
Undiebomber: Obama’s fault!
You guys are awesome.
9/11 and undiebomber systemic from clinton……compare how bush and obama took the threat, and is taking this threat from crazy fundamentalist muslims….one was agressively making sure it didnt happen again and the other would rather mirandize these them with out even giving officials proper time to interrigate….its not whos fault its whats being done to prevent!
Except Bush didn’t do shit when warned of possible terrorist attacks and read a shoe bomber his miranda rights a year after the worst terrorist attack on our soil happened under his watch.
But, but but… Clinton is just betrayed by the facts.
9 years later and you just can’t learn a wingnut.
Lost cause.
thats right richard reed was mirandized, cool got it. military tribunals werent set up neither was gitmo and guess what….he was an american citizen unfortunately afforded those rights. but with that being said he could be tried for treason ref: ex parte quirin.
i never said it was clintons fault it was systemic from his administration ie: uss cole, dealings with bin laden, bosnia, somalia….the nut jobs used these things to blast the west (us). trying to kill bin laden and failing further fueled his hatred. and its something thats been around since the iranian hostages. these people who commit acts like this there is no reasoning with them, that is probably this administrations biggest naivety.
and the other would rather mirandize these them with out even giving officials proper time to interrigate
Is that one Mr. Bush? I believe Richard Reid, the shoe bomber, was read his Miranda rights when he was arrested and before he was questioned. Further, Reid was tried in a civilian court. Isn’t that “weak on terrorism” in your book?
Hey Marco – look it up. In the current wars we are fighting – you know the ones that BO was going to stop? – BO has had the most US soldiers killed by a wide margin. His (BO’s) waffling has inspired the enemy. Either stay in to win or bringthem home. Don’t say one thing and do something else half-baked at best.
Um, wingnuts…
2,976 dead on one day of Captain Lazy’s Presidency. One day.
Thanks for playing.
Hey, Dave – 2,976.
I know you guys think it’s a holiday to celebrate but it isn’t.
We have “only” ourselves to blame for this mess:
This quote came from the Czech Republic. Someone has it all figured out. It’s sad that most of the people of the US don’t.
“The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president.
The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.
The republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.”

Oh yes, because George was such a gift for this nation these past eight years. Yes, lets ignore he handed Obama a 1.2 Trillion dollar deficit, two wars not accounted for, a tyrant Wall Street that YOUR PARTY won’t let him reign in, and a health care crisis that keeps growing the GDP beyond recognition. Oh, and leave us with a congress with a weak ass senate majority leader and senators from conservative states who only need a check from Aetna, or Blue Cross to come along and fuck it up for everybody. Oh, lets blame Obama for the 60 vote rule in the senate, of which he is no longer a part of and would overstep his bounds in the executive branch if he tried to change it himself.Oh yes, like the bitch God of Stupid Sarah Palin says, the time for blaming Bush for everything from 2001-2009 and the aftereffects is over. Barack Obama is now responsible for 2001-2009 plus the aftereffects.
Before coming here to try to demean everyone here, do us a proper favor, and know what the fuck you are talking about.
Watch your language you Jerk!
Fuck you, its a goddamn free muthafuckin country. First Amendment, remember.
i will never understand this fundamentally flawed argument a 1.2 trillion dollar debt is evil over the 2 terms…..i got it couldnt agree more……but where the nerve to not look, accept, acknowledge that this president has more then doubled down on the debt…..you make noooo g.d. sense. you argue arbitrarily there is absolutely no method to the madness you should be ashamed of yourself for ignorring the same inadequacies.
also the rest of your argument made absolutely no sense…..you were all over the place with backing a single argument…..GO HOME AND DONT VOTE!
I work in the foreclosure “industry” and I can assure you that foreclosures did not begin when the Denocrats took over Congress.
Check out the start of our economic crisis in 1977 with Jimmy Carter & CRA
Check out the start of our economic crisis in 1977 with Jimmy Carter & CRA
Wow. Carter must’ve been some kind of eeevil genius to launch an economic crisis that survived eight whole years of St. Reagan’s leadership, only to emerge 30+ years later!!
Yeah, kinda ignores the early 70s, you know when the gas crisis and foreclosures were happening under two Republicans Nixon and Ford. But alas,Jimmy Carter’s fault those two were elected President, I guess.
ever heard that saying not your grandparents dems. well those were before carter……and yeah nixon sucked no ones arguing, also you forgto to mention the iranian hostage and that carters policies prolonged those economic problems as will this mans now.
Zowee!
Check out the start of our economic crisis in 1977 with Jimmy Carter & CRA
My God not even Fox News uses that one anymore. They have new transcripts you can download you know?
Missing him would be the same as a kid who misses the previous babysitter who spanked him silly every time simply because the new babysitter is now raping the kid…
Washington is so Fxxked up there is and will be nothing to miss in the future…
The picture of New Orleans should be taken out of this “ensemble”. FEMA or no FEMA, the government told those people to leave, that there was a HURRICANE coming. When you live in a bowl BELOW sea level, it would be wise to migrate in such situations. I live on the southern Texas coast, where entire cities were wiped from the face of the map in the aftermath of Katrina as well as Rita. Yet for some reason no one ever heard a peep from the national news media about any of that. Oh wait, that’s right, because most of those communities and cities destroyed were majorily white, and even where they weren’t the people weren’t stupid enough to stay behind. Bush wasn’t the brightest crayon in the box, but New Orleans was the result of pure fu@#ng human stupidity. And unless he himself caused the hurricane, shouldn’t be related to his Presidency.
Response time is relevant to your worth to society…..I would say the way New Orleans handled itself in the aftermath…..rapes, murders, police officers looting. The response time was 100 percent appropriate.
Yeah, those n*****s had it coming, right Michael?
September 11. The neverending wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Worldwide hatred on a level incomparable to other presidents or world leaders. The Bankers Stimulus Bill. God told him to do it. Katrina. The Patriot Act. The Terror Alerts. Haliburton. Enron. The omnipotent vice presidency. Guantanamo. Abu Ghraib. Enhanced interrogations. Extraordinary renditioning. Butcher of the English language and a laughingstock among world leaders because of it. Over two years of accumulated vacation time. Miss him? Only his mother could truly miss him. And how can we really miss someone whose tenure has left such a mess? Nor will the politicians on either side let his memory drop. Miss him? He’s still just about everywhere you look, not just on a billboard.
Just saw this. Beautiful pictorial essay. Eloquent!
I didn’t even vote for him and I miss him. BTW I like how the home foreclosure statistics given here start in 2006. Let’s see. That’s when the Democrats took over congress. Hmm
the home foreclosure statistics given here start in 2006. Let’s see. That’s when the Democrats took over congress.
Uh-oh. Recent history FAIL.
Well said. Thanks.
[...] I think we all know the answer to this question: [...]
Whoever is responsible for the billboard, or whatever the message intended, it at least causes us some pause to look where we came from and where we are going. It is dangerous to see politicians as a collection of characatured/cartooned people. Look beyond the individuals.
Socialism carries its own inherent meaning, but let’s look honestly at what it really means like under the current administration, where it has been characterized as “sharing the american dream with everyone” (even those who benefit continue to sleep through it and have not “earned it”), extending health care to everyone (most often with the usual smattering of children and elderly pictures), and overall “doing what is right” when there is no other metaphors handy. We are sheep.
This says it all:
“Many have heard these words so often that they’ve become a catechism. Let’s look at each phrase in more detail.
To say we are all created equal is not to say that we are indistinguishable. We differ widely in size, shape, hue, talents, culinary preferences, and the hand-eye coordination necessary to master the Wii. Left to our own devices, we won’t all develop the same interests, earn the same wages, rear identical children, or adopt the same beliefs.
What the phrase really means is that, whatever our differences of status or wealth, we all enjoy equal rights under the law.
And what are those rights? They include the right to own ourselves and our decisions (life and liberty), to acquire property by mixing our labor with natural resources (the fruits of our labors), and to acquire property by voluntary exchange with other people (the pursuit of happiness).
To say I have the right to pursue happiness is not, of course, to say that I have a right to force you to make me happy. I don’t have a right to force you to give me food, clothing, shelter, or health care. I can ask. I can offer something you value in exchange. When the Left tries to misuse the concept of rights to justify theft via welfare and income-transfer programs, I snort.
I take a dim view of politicians who think their job extends beyond carrying out the few, core, constitutional duties of government. I also take a dim view of people who won’t mind their own business, in all senses of the term. And I take a dim view of anyone who thinks that personal freedom doesn’t come with personal responsibility, and that it is the job of government to force taxpayers to bail out profligate households or businesses.”
It was “discriminatory and racist” to deny everyone their “right” to home ownership. Now, you are “discriminatory and racist” in relaxing your lending standards and extending credit to people of lessor means on mortgages.
Obama tells everyone they have a “right” to a job. Everyone has a “right” to stay in a houyse they cannot afford. Everyone has a right to be bailed out by the government for whatever disaster befalls you. In fact, if you don’t give me my money fast enough, I will burn my own neighborhoods and shoot at rescue helicopters. Noone gets the fact that there is no such thing as “government money”. It comes from working families. 42-43% of the people in this country do not pay taxes.
There, in a nutshell, are the problems we need to fix.
My brothers and sisters, these problems will never be fixed with Democrats or Republicans; they have become institutionalized politics. This is what makes me fear for my children.
If you made it this far, thanks for reading.
well put sir!
Yes I have missed him since Jan. 21, 2009!!
Any one who doesn’t miss Bush and still wants Obama as president are just the most stupidest people in the world.
No I don’t miss Bush. But remember the Democrats have had control of congress and still do but don’t get anything done. It is just a big political game. Neither party is any better or worse than the other.
Stay tuned for more of the same. Obama isn’t doing anything but spending out money and talking alot.
I didn’t think I’d miss him. Damn was I wrong. We were all wrong, we’re just too proud to admit it.
I’d rather have HIM than the idiot there now.
The bottom line is we as a country can’t afford to pick up the slack.
But we can afford to kill brown people half-way across the planet?
Of course we are complaining we work hard for what we have. Why would we want to work more for someone else?
Because we live in a society. No man is an island, and whatnot.
This guy (Obama) has gotten everything free all his life,
WHAT?! This has got to be the most retarded (yeah, I said it) criticism of Obama I have ever seen. Obama, who grew up in a single-parent household, who had to pay for his education with scholarships, got everything “handed to him”? And Bush, who grew up with a rich daddy and a trust fund, who got a legacy admission, and was given businesses to ruin, was a “hard worker”?
He is the KRYPTONITE the STUPID voted for last fall.
That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
Say what you like, I had a job when Bush was in office.
Yeah, too bad the Supreme Court struck down those anti-sodomy laws, huh.
The problem is that the average IQ is 100, so for each of us who comprenhends, there is at least one who does not.
You have absolutely no idea how IQ works, do you?
The only people who miss Bush are those who are turned on by needless death.
Why would anyone think America misses this guy? Chimpie was the worst president in American history!!!
At least under Bush I felt this country did a good job of keeping us safe from terrorists. Obama has not done the same – we have had several attacks and are promised more while BO practices the the opposite of the transparency he preached. The current liar in chief is the best liar we have seen to date – he and all those spending us into oblivion need to go.
Wow. You are clearly nuts.
Heres a few examples of how Bush kept us safe 1 was warned by bin laden of a attack. 2 was informed by fbi inteligence report of Muslems from terriost countrys taking flying lessons on commercial aircraft but refusing to learn how to land.He took no action at all on this intelligence report and 2 monts later those same muslems flew planes into our buildings killing thousand while bush read my bet goat. He got the intelligence so wrong on iraq [evan though there were those who were saying hes getting it wrong] That it cost us over 5 thousand lives 50 thousand maimed far life americansand 1 trillion borrowed dollars and counting to try and correct his errors. Oh he also took a surplus of funds and turned it into a 6trillion dollar deficet.Yet we still were attacked numerous times in this country on his watch Anthrax attack, Ricard reed, florida bunch I know thers more but they dont come to mind just now.The 6 trillion dollar deficet and the depletion of our military and the mess he left this country in has seriously jepordised our safty
Yes, his step-father was in the oil industry.
That’s it? That’s your proof? His step-dad worked for a company? What evidence do you have that Obama was actually handed anything?
And, you are at Oliver Willis – Like KRYPTONITE To STUPID, stupid.
I know that, but the sentence:
“He is the KRYPTONITE the STUPID voted for last fall.”
Makes no sense. Unless, most likely, he has no idea what kryptonite is.
ok lets break down the kryptonite comment RETARD!
1. kryptonite bad for superman narrrffff!
2. in comparing b.o. to kryptonite would make the U.S. superman woahhhh revelation. chew ice for any swelling.
3. and stupid people who voted for him would be YOU!
ANY ?’S
Well, you didn’t state what he was kryptonite to in your original post.
ANY ?’S
Yes.
Why do you hate this country so much?
it was a pretty obivious statement and wasnt my comment just helping you make sense of something well incredibly easy to understand…..as for hating america i have worn a uniform for 10 yrs and continue to serve…..whats your excuse……oh yeah your a progressive pussy
as for hating america i have worn a uniform for 10 yrs and continue to serve
I have no way to verify that one way or the other.
whats there to verify any ways, lets say i was lying would that make me informing you your an idiot any less relevant….and is that really all you can do argue/slander. there really hasnt been anything intellectual that has come from you. when you can talk substance and back it with facts that can be researched then you can have an opinion until then go play with the kiddies
Why bother informing you? You, just like all the other ultra cons here, will either ignore the evidence, spout meaningless rhetoric, or pretend to not understand what we’re saying. Lying and being stupid is all you ultra-cons know how to do correctly.
Oh please, little boy. We know you’re using mommys computer because you’re snowed in again.
Just stop with the junior Hannity talking points, mmmkay sweetie? And for gods sake, learn to spell and use grammar in the proper context.
Thank you, sir.
As I just posted over at deusexmalcontent, I would like to say that your reply to that unbelievably stupid billboard was the blogospheric equivalent of a PE song pumped to 11. You’ve just picked up a new reader.
Is obtaining information, by any means possible, such a horrible thing if it prevents another World Trade Center type attack? NO. What would Al Gore have done about 9-11-01? Not much. Would this have resulted in more attacks on US soil? Probably.
So what “information” did we obtain from Abu Ghraib? Or Gitmo? Just admit that you like torturing people for no reason.
Instead of just attacking thos eof us who work hard and make money to support more that 50% of people who pay no taxes shut up and get a job.
We’d like to, but you and your Wall Street idols kinda wrecked that.
Poor little conservatives, why do you all hate America so much?
cant let that slide conservatives hating america hmmmmmm! let me wrap my head around this…….ok here i go…..first of all dont be so kind to use the term liberal your a progressive, and if there are any people who dont like america it is you progressive……the constitution is not a living breathing document that can bend to your will it is very explicit in what covers and doesnt…..then there is the bill of rights, these are the things our wonderfull country was founded on and conservatives uphold and cherish whilst your ilk mocks, trys to pervert, and frankly piss on. if there is anyone who does not like america it is you sir!
the constitution is not a living breathing document that can bend to your will it is very explicit in what covers and doesnt
How silly of me, documents aren’t alive. Corporations are…
these are the things our wonderfull country was founded on and conservatives uphold and cherish whilst your ilk mocks, trys to pervert, and frankly piss on. if there is anyone who does not like america it is you sir!
Except the first, fourth, fifth, sixth, and eighth amendments, right?
For someone who claims to “love” America so much, you sure are dead set on seeing as many Americans die as possible.
I’d say “don’t quit your day job”, but you probably suck at that, too.
1. not dead set on seeing americans die, we didnt attack anyone! like i said been in the army 10yrs.
2. the 1st whos not allowed to speak.
3. the 4th not allowed to search enemy combatants is this really a relevent ammendment to point to honestly.
4. the 5th there enemy combatants congress passed a law that they can be tried in military tribunals so try again.
5. the 6th im pretty sure a military tribunal would be speedy and theyre not us citizens theyre ENEMY COMBATANTS.
6. the 8th we water board our own troops and forgive me for not being sensitive to them being sleep deprived or told to stand at long periods of time.
now back to seeing americans die wheres the relevance how would that remotely correlate to any of your argument about the constitution
You’ve been in the army ten years? Then what is your DD-214?
release from active duty or for reservist coming off a deployment i was also a recruiter dick
we didnt attack anyone!
Well, except Iraq.
the 4th not allowed to search enemy combatants is this really a relevent ammendment to point to honestly.
Sounds nice, except U.S. citizens were also wiretapped.
4. the 5th there enemy combatants congress passed a law that they can be tried in military tribunals so try again.
5. the 6th im pretty sure a military tribunal would be speedy and theyre not us citizens theyre ENEMY COMBATANTS.
If we even give them that.
we water board our own troops
Were you ever water boarded?
forgive me for not being sensitive to them being sleep deprived or told to stand at long periods of time.
Why don’t you try it? 4 days with no sleep (don’t go longer than 5 or you might get brain da…on second thought, try for 6) and standing in place for 18 hours. If you fail, well, that’s part of the experiment.
now back to seeing americans die wheres the relevance how would that remotely correlate to any of your argument about the constitution
It correlates to your claim of not hating America.
Freedom isn’t free. Americans have died, and will die, to ensure your freedom.
Hoooeeee! This one really attracted a new, (ahem) interesting crowd, dinnit?
Hey the Dow crashed twice with Bush, once at 911 then 2007 with major recessions in 2003 and 2005.
It was obvious Bush was a right wing puppet whack job, but the idiot Major voted for him twice?.
I kinda miss Bush when the Dow was 14,000, shudda bot gold. I am a dumbass too.
Boy oh boy! We used to raise pigs and when they would fight they would sound just like Democrats do over this billboard thing.
I just read every comment on this thread. I am left with two conclusions.
1) These people make Dennis look reasonable.
2) I have to go throw up now.
I’m just going with the assumption that all these trolls are the same person. That person may or may not be Dennis.
So far, you’re the only one here exposed for posting under another known person’s identity, Zython. You were able to let out all your ugly racist feelings in print form and do it posing as someone else…how wonderful for you.
Kinda funny how that thought is always on your mind- guess it’s because you’re always still itching to do it.
I thought you only come when your name is said 3 times.
http://michellemalkin.com/2010/02/09/things-i-dont-miss-about-george-w-bush/
Yes, I do. Considering our present situation, hell, I even sort of miss Bill Clinton.
Dub, how can we possibly miss you, when you just WON’T GO AWAY? As someone laid-off, more than working since 2003, till my company finally closed my branch 04/2009, hearing woe after economic woe, mostly due to your mismanagement, and Obama gettin’ blamed, with every new company closure, we think of you. With every new natural disaster, we can’t help but think of you. Since you picked up daddy’s mantle, and ask w/ Pres. Clinton to send money (we no longer have) to help Haiti ( the old conservative joked during the Katrina ads, if they didn’t cut, you’d see Geo. Sr. pulling his hand out of Billy’s back. Now it’s Billy pulling out of “The W”- hope they had lots of hand sanitizer- some scum just won’t wash!) Dear W, please ignore literary advice, go QUIETLY into that good night. This ABORTION of a billboard has as much hurt rolled into it, as if OJ were to do similarly (after his trial years ago) promoting a new book, “Getting Away with MURDER!”
OW, you just gotta tell us where these folks are linking in from.
If some dumbass wingtards want to remind America of why the Republicans shouldn’t be in power, then let them. The rehabilitation of GWB will be as successful as that of Joe McCarthy, or convincing most americans that Sarah Palin would make a less than disastrous president.
obviously because palin had way less executive experience then this guys does… not a huge fan of hers but she did run an entire state….. he oh yeah he organized theres alot of competition there!
but she did run an entire state
Debatable as to how well she did. But however well or badly she did it, she failed to complete even one term. If she can’t stand the heat long enough to complete one term running one of the least populated states, why would anyone expect her to be up to running an entire country?
I hate to break it to you, Mr. Pretend Solider, but the election is over with, mmmkay? Think you can stay with current events? Trying to use the ‘who has more exec. experience’ line is a dead issue. Palin failed as governor and she ran away from the job so she could cash in on her popularity with idiot wingnuts who don’t believe the president is a US citizen.
While you’re at it, you should mention Rev Wright and Bill Ayers for good measure. That worked really well for the Republicans, didn’t it?
I hate to break it to you, Burn, but the current issue is Barack Hussein bin Laden Obama Soetoro isn’t living up to anyone’s expectations, including yours. Mmmkay?
I hope his corpse rots in a sewer. Him and his minions. Death really is too good for them. Maybe they should be striped of their belongings and paraded through the streets in rags, before being deported to Haiti.
Let me know what you think in 10 years when tax and spend Demo’s are in power with 50% of your income (oh…unemployed…no healthcare)… Let me reitterate that…my income goes to the govenment. Now I have to get food stamps, rationed heath care and heating assistance because Congress spends everything we make.
Dont blame the Bush era on something that started with Jimmy Carter. Do your research before you hit up one person.
Of course if he wasn’t in power, I would hate to think I would have to ride my bike 20 miles to work because Mr Green was in power for the previous 8 years.
I am not complaining. I am just trying to make a life for my family, not the government.
Food stamps? You socialist recipient. Whatever happened to personal responsibility, huh? This is America, you’re supposed to pull yourself up by your bootstraps, not beg the government for handouts.
Sheesh. You people never learn.
You gotta have a LOT more than Kryptonite…
As we KNOW – the Leftards, Dumb-o-crats, Libtards are the cause of most issues we have right now.
Who has given away Social Security to people that have NEVER PAID IN? Dumb-o-crats
Who doesn’t like encouraging small business with tax incentives? Dumb-o-crats
Who wants to tax us more to piss it away on people that don’t deserve it? Dumb-o-crats
This current batch of douchebags in government are very much to blame. Who rules the roost? Dumb-o-crats
True blue Democrats are turning in their graves. That’s because graveyards are about the only place you can find a true blue Democrat…..
Oliver, I think you’ve hit a new mark for attracting the dumbest of wayward children from Malkin and Redstate.
You forgot these http://www.bobcesca.com/blog-archives/2010/02/bush_billboard.html#comments
NO NO TAKE IT AWAY. IT BURNS US…in other words i wish to never see Bush or other republican in the white house unless everything changes. Because the way that sarah palin right now make me think america should split in 2.
Could somebody pass a glass of Koolaid, mine seems to be running low. I keep rubbing my eyes and the picture gets worse and worse. Oh Barry save us from yourself
This is funny! The Dem’s got the savior in and now, oh my God, the object of their scorn and hatred is surfacing again. Actually I think its an Obama funded sign. If he did not have Bush to blame for everything, what then? It is important to keep Bush out there to have something to rail against. Mid-term elections coming!
Ready or not…
I miss him. FYI, Bush inherited 911 but I never heard him whine or blame Clinton (even though Clinton and Gore played patty-cake with Al-Qaeda for years).
I’m sure the Memo labeled “Bin Laden determined to strike in the us” had been sitting on the white house desk since Clinton…
Oh Wait.
‘I miss him. FYI, Bush inherited 911 but I never heard him whine or blame Clinton (even though Clinton and Gore played patty-cake with Al-Qaeda for years).’
Ummm….what? You NEVER heard Bush administration officials blame Clinton for 9/11?
Bush INHERITED 9/11?
Jesus; how many PB and banana sandwiches did you make for Elvis today?
Yes George. We have missed you… with every shoe so far.
Just in case you think you miss him here is a reminder of his blunders…
An analysis of the Bush Administration neo-conservative approach to hyping the Muslim faith into radical Muslim terrorism after 9/11. Note: I helped plan and organize the 1st Gulf War for his fathers administraion, and worked on influencing the recognition of the Palestinian State, building the wall around Israel while giving time for a “Co-Existence Zone” as the Iron Curtin did for German reunification and the collapse of the Soviet Union… I was against a return to the Gulf becuase there was no evidence linking Iraq to 9/11, nor did the UN weapons inspectors feel there were any WMD’s.
Bush Administration Blunders
By Harvey Carroll, Jr.
Missing the Boogeyman, but back in business:
American Defense missed the Boogeyman and no longer had the Soviet Union to continue their paranoid policies of the past. With the Soviet Union out of the way and no Boogeyman to race with to see who could go broke first Defense was lost and confused… The race with Russia to see who could go broke first just wasn’t enough. They were not happy with Russia beating us to bankrupts first I guess… I can only assume that is why President Bush nearly doubled the 6 Trillion National Debt in his election year 2,000, to nearly 12 Trillion when he left office 8 years later. This vast increase in debt and Defense spending lead to the worst economic down turn since the Great Depression…
With the Soviet Union diminished and dismantled American Defense had no one to Demonize in order to sell their over inflated contractor appropriations… So, to the Defense Contractors 9/11 was a God send or a soul selling dream come true. While unconfirmed, I heard rumors and read a few things over the years on the net that inferred some contractors were happy and partying knowing they were back in business after the attacks on 9/11… So, a Boogeyman was back and they were back in business…
My Experience and Credibility was not accepted as a voice of reason:
I won’t go into detail about how I helped develop and organize the 1st Gulf War. But I will say that I had the experience and credibility to voice opposition against returning to Iraq. Especially for unjustified reasons of WMD’s and/or any connection between Iraq and the 9/11 Terror attack… I advised that it will cost the country about 2 Trillion, turn the world against our efforts and create a major economic down turn in the economy… I should know, I did give his father President Bush, Sr. about a 95% approval rating by syndicating and reducing the cost via a multinational coalition to successfully bring a quick end to the 1st Gulf War which saved millions of lives and affected the economic fate of nations…
For a few hours I was about to agree with Colin Powel and CIA Director Tenet on the need for preemptive actions against Iraq. Then my commonsense and experienced kicked in. I immediately began contacting the powers that be, and offering my experience and credibility. This should have been accepted as a voice of reason and prevented returning to the Gulf, but I got the impression during the campaign that President Bush was going back to the Gulf at any cost… His base of support was Defense and he had a lot of IOU’s out and the Gulf would have been an obvious payoff while giving America the shell game that money spent would make them safer as many of the seasoned intelligence officers and ranking military advisors were saying the contrary…
Duct Tape Ideology and Isolationism:
President Bush, Sr. and President Clinton had great relationships through out the world. I like to feel that I had a great impact on President Bush, Sr’s. Administration coalition building that united the world. Then President Clinton pushed projects that increased trade and commerce and created a major economic boom…
This all changed with the duct tape ideology and isolationism statements of “Your either with us or against us”… These statements did much more than affect the wine and cheese imports from France… It made much of the world start looking at other markets for their imports and exports… Even with America claiming the be the most stable, and number one consumer market in the world.
At home President Bush, V.P. Cheney, Colin Powel, Condi Rice and Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld ranted and raved “the terrorist are coming, the terrorist are coming”; thereby, creating such neo-conservatism fear campaign that Hitler himself would be in shock and awe of such policies… Having once had a beer with an old German SS soldier while stationed in West Germany while in the Army; I asked him “Why did you follow Hitler”… He told me that there was such a movement that everyone was following him and people were in fear for their lives if the didn’t… So, I chose to take this old mans thoughts and try to be a voice of reason before such a movement lead America too far astray…
I did all I could to write the U.N., State Department, CIA, NSA, National Mass Media, local and regional TV, Radio and anyone else that would listen… Trying to share my experience and insight that would prevent the run away debt, loss of life, world partners, credibility and foreseeable economic hardship… It took a long time before others started to realize that we were on the wrong path in America…
In the mean time I started preparing position papers to deal with the foreseeable economic downturn that would near equal the collapse of the Soviet Union. I had also made a few suggestions on helping stabilize the economic situation after their collapse via loans, buyout and dismantlement of deteriorating nuclear stockpiles, and joint ventures with the Mir Space Station to turn it into the International Space Station as well as writing a few things in the late 80’s to help influence the tearing down of the Iron Curtin and in the mid 90’s influencing some of the NATO Expansions aspects..
Such experiences gave me a bit of insight into the probable solutions that American would need when it ran out of money and friends to pay for our crazed spending spree… I have dozens of position papers, spreadsheets and the like discussing bailouts, new mortgage programs, and low interest loans to capitalize banks via secondary mortgage market programs… All presented at a high level before the collapse and via email while visiting Eastern Block countries that once were predicted to be so devastated economically that internal nuclear destruction would probably be a blessing… All changed by sound economic and finance suggestions and the belief in Capitalism in which I could write and discuss a lecture on… The end result is it’s working, but more debt is being created (some justified due to the Bush blunders); however, it doesn’t look like any voice of reason will be able to take either party of Congress off lobbyist Commission from appropriations of anything and everything that will puts a dime in their pocket…
Thank you, and no I don’t miss him…
I see your Kool-Aid mustache:) It’s under that nose that’s been shoved up Obama’s ass for over a year:(
The stimulus stopped the hemorrhaging of American jobs.
The Record Deficits left by Bush did not go away when he left office. In fact, Bush was responsible for the budget of Fiscal Year 2009 which ran from October 2008 through October 2009. The Financial Sector deregulation that flourished under Bush did not disappear when Bush left office.
The jobs lost under Bush were not filled the moment Bush left office. The wars and the massive military spending started by Bush did not end the moment Bush left office.
I agree that to assign a cause for problems faced by America does not solve the problems left for America to solve. But, if someone claims the problems we need to solve were not caused by Bush’s policies, they are not being honest. If a person fails to recognize the cause or source of a problem, it is harder to figure out how to correct the problem.
In many cases, identifying the source of a problem is the first step needed in correcting the problem. If your car won’t start, replacing the battery won’t be much help if there is no gas in the gas tank.

Your statement is contrary to fact.
The Healthcare Reform Bill does cover Congress.
And just to cover other points from a lying e-mail that includes that lie:
It never has been true that members of Congress could retire with full pay after one term. That’s a false allegation that has been circulating for at least a decade. As we reported back in 2007, lawmakers can qualify for very good pensions, but nowhere near that good. A lawmaker might qualify for a pension of 80 percent of final salary, and only after many years of service.
An even older Internet myth is the claim that members of Congress don’t pay into Social Security. That was true once — but not for the past quarter-century. They have paid Social Security taxes since 1984, as we reported in a separate article, also in 2007.
The claim that members of Congress would be somehow “exempt” from the now-stalled health care legislation is a more recent absurdity. It’s a twisted claim based on misrepresentations of the House and Senate bills, neither of which exempts lawmakers. We explained how that false notion got started on the Internet rumor mill in an article we posted on Jan. 20.
Finally, the claim that Congress is exempt from “many” of the laws it has passed is 15 years out of date. In the 1980s there were news stories prodding members of Congress for putting themselves “[a]bove their own laws,” as a 1988 Time magazine story put it. But following the “Republican Revolution” of 1994, which put Republicans in control of both House and Senate, Congress passed the Congressional Accountability Act (PL 104-1), which applies a dozen civil rights, labor and workplace safety regulations to the legislative branch. Here’s a list compiled by the independent, nonpartisan Office of Compliance, which was set up to enforce the laws in Congress:

I hate all of you.
I’m horribly confused. How did the the CEO of AIG and the other welfare recipients “earn” their bailouts?
Your disliking Bush still doesn’t refute my point. Hell, it didn’t even dispute the point. Also, a stock of platitudes has no bearing on the truth of the situation. If I had never studied logic, I must admit, I too would have to repeat political tropes. It’s like listening to poorly done leitmotivs in Wagner. Just some annoying and repetitive scales. Unless you can warp history and make the 2004 election unhappen, then my proposition stands. Bush was reelected. This has less to do with his abilities, since he was a mediocre president at best, but more to do with ineptitude in the other party. And just to play your silly game. There is no way that Florida, all its corruption combined, comes close to playing the corruption game at Chicago levels, let alone Illinois. Florida is like the lowly gavel which mimics the grand hammer of injustice from Chicago which causes the earth to tremble from the eternal, unflappable destruction of all that is good.
Sure, like I miss chickenpox
They pay 60 percent of the taxes but they don’t get any income? You’re not making any sense.
Some may have missed but maybe they’re re-aiming?
Just kidding… Chill out, SS! lol 
Just kidding!!
They’ve got a LOT of Gaul hanging that sign, as does Bill Clinton, trotting out that vile, putrid, piece of shit concerning the disaster in Haiti and actually asking us to send MONEY to that fucktard Bush? WTF?! KISS MY ASS, Clinton!! YOU SUCK!!! GRR! @jrfunkenstein says:”….. ” Right on!!
I suspect some commenting here were still in diapers when all the shit took place in 2000. We need to school them! 
Or as Bush used to say, “Re-Learn them.” lmao!
Yes I would have to agree that we miss unemployment rates between 4 and 5 percent for the better part of his administration until Democrats (tax and spend) took over in 2006. Sometimes you just don’t know what you had until it’s gone. Pretty much everyone I know here (a lot of which voted for Obama) agree a 3rd Bush term would be looking very good right now.
Cue the memory lane muzak.
I miss Dubyas …
…sensitive side:
“I can press when there needs to be pressed; I can hold hands when there needs to be hold hands.”
…whimsical humor:
“Goodbye from the world’s biggest polluter.”
…economic horse sense:
”There’s no question about it. Wall Street got drunk — that’s one of the reasons I asked you to turn off the TV cameras — it got drunk and now it’s got a hangover. The question is how long will it sober up and not try to do all these fancy financial instruments.”
…steadfast honesty:
“We’re never been stay the course, George.”
…honest steadfastness:
“You know, when I campaigned here in 2000, I said, I want to be a war President. No President wants to be a war President, but I am one.”
…understanding of world leadership:
“My job is a decision-making job, and as a result, I make a lot of decisions.”
…delightful sense of irony:
“You know, one of the hardest parts of my job is to connect Iraq to the war on terror.”
…razor sharp legal mind:
“Those who enter the country illegally violate the law.”
…ability to give confidence to New Orleans:
“We look forward to hearing your vision, so we can more better do our job.”
…ability to take on the MSM:
“See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda.”
…sense of friendship:
I’m looking forward to a good night’s sleep on the soil of a friend.”
Stop the muzak. (*sniff*) That was one great president.
Bob says:
Any one who doesn’t miss Bush and still wants Obama as president are just the most stupidest people in the world.
And my seven year old says “needs grammar checker, stat”
Don’t you just love when dumb people make hand thinking humans an epic win in the category of irony?
I fail to see how killing Iraqi cab drivers ensures our freedom. Nor do I see how letting the uninsured perish will either. Or how does letting people drown in NOLA ensure our freedom?

It would be interesting to know how many of the foreclosures in the above graph were a result of people being issued loans they could never repay?
Politics aside, nothing will “change” until the citizenry stop expecting something for nothing, quit depending on government hand outs, and start taking care of them selves (e.g. if a cat. 5 hurricane is coming, get the fuck out!).
Bush wasn’t the best president but he certainly wasn’t the worst, conversely Obama is not and will not be America’s savior otherwise he would’ve actually gotten something done in the past 13 months while his party controlled both houses of Congress notwithstanding his blatant refusal to listen to the American people on healthcare.
I miss you Bush, and i’m proud to say it.
yes.
Obama is just as bad at his job as Bush was. dont even try to deny it. they both suck.
No he didn’t. Knock it off.
Well, how many people are unemployed, today, who would not be if Bush was still in office? 20 million? More? And counting.
How the fuck do you figure that? Show your work.
‘If this new healthcare is so great why don’t the Congressmen and Senators want it for themselves? ‘
Because they already HAVE health care they DON’T PAY FOR,
All socialists, huh? Even Michelle Bachmann is nothing but a dirty hippie socialist.
People who voted for Bush TWICE! are STUPID. Now they complain that he did not do a good job…. WTF??? You MF’s voted for his stupid ass!!!!
If you would like to compare some of the current gov. run entities such as our military to a gov. health plan – then, heck no, I don’t want Universal Healthcare!
Traitor.Why do you hate our military?
(Too be clear – I’m speaking of the management of the military system not the soldiers.)
Oh, I see. The best run and trained fighting force on the planet, and you’re bagging on them.
We have systems in place for the un-insured, it’s called Medicaid.
A government run program. That’s pretty much want we want to do. So now your on board with Socialism, then?
Wow, if you really think Bush funded that sign then you have to have been shorted some oxygen during birth.
I’m not a Bush fan by any means, but this goes to show that liberals will blindly attack conservatives and vice versa. Bush doesnt give a fuck anymore, i promise. I’m sure he is enjoying retirement more than anyone of you will.
Also, how does a picture of a flooded New Orleans (and someone above saying EVERY natural disaster reminds them of bush) prove Bush did anything wrong? Does he have the power to stop hurricanes and just decides not to? [sarcasm]Sounds a lot like god to me, and i’ve actually seen GW, so I know who i should pray to.[/sarcasm]
“I hate to break it to you, Burn, but the current issue is Barack Hussein bin Laden Obama Soetoro isn’t living up to anyone’s expectations, including yours. Mmmkay”
Well there, Gun-Blued Overall Soiler, we can always set the bar by exceeding the expectations of his predecessor, meaning no one has flown planes into a buildings nine months into his watch.
Also.
Instead of just attacking those of us who work hard and make money to support more that 50% of people who pay no taxes shut up and get a job.
They do have jobs, you fucking moron. However, they are so underemployed they don’t make enough money for federal taxes to be taken. They do, however, pay state, local and sales taxes. To say that they don’t pay taxes is a lie.
so for each of us who comprenhends, there is at least one who does not.
Now we know which one you are.
Freedom isn’t free. Americans have died, and will die, to ensure your freedom.
The rest of us have to pay our taxes. So STFU.
First of all, josh, debt is different from deficit. Bush doubled the deficit in eight years. Reagan quadrupled it in 8 years.
Our budget deficit at the end of 2008 was 1.3 Trillion dollars. Obama’s 2010 budget increases it to 1.56 Trillion dollars. That’s only an increase of 260 billion dollars.
Not at all sure where you get this “double down on the debt” nonsense.
Oh, yes I do; out of your ass.
.he was an american citizen
Wrong. He’s British.
I thank the great spaghetti monster in the sky every day that Dubya is no longer President.
I believe Obama is doing a good job in very difficult circumstances (including Republican obstructionism reaching new heights of ridiculousness.)
At least under Bush I felt this country did a good job of keeping us safe from terrorists.
Except for, you know, that one time.
I wouldn’t miss that circus clown no matter how bad Obama does.
And BTW, we’ll keep blaming Bush for all the shit he fucked up because he fucked up so much. It deserves repeating.
I thought you only come when your name is said 3 times.
He’s such a kinky perv.
Yes!
YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!
the psyche of america amazes me.
All politics aside, I knew George Bush loved America. I have severe doubts about Barry.
I would have felt quite comfortable in the church Bush attended to here the ministry, I would have walked out of Barry’s, not to mention not taking my children to hear such hatred coming out of the so called mouth of a man of God.
I don’t think Bush would have put the citizens of New York through another hell and well, Barry doesn’t rule it out.
Bush slowly took this country into a deficit we could not come out of quickly and well, Barry is finishing us off.
Who you gonna call? Try Ghostbusters, they would likely do a better job than either ome of them.
Lets try this.
Take Barry’s telepromter away, don’t allow him one more time say I inherited this or that, or based on the previous administration, keep him off TV until he accomplished something significant, take away his check book and just see how dynamic of a president you voted in for this country.
Not really. Obama has continued with much of the same.
I miss him, because I wouldn’t think that the media could get any rougher on a guy and wham they would do it again. Obama has gotten away with so much stuff it is unbelievable. I will say I didn’t agree with President Bush on a lot of his policies or his spending but I haven’t agreed with almost everything that Obama has done. I do not feel save in our country and I’m embarrassed that Obama went around the world apologizing to every Muslim we may have insulted. I don’t like the fact that China owns this country and yet if you so much as say one negative thing about this man’s policies you are immediately called a racist. Health care does need some cleaning up but not the whole system. I tell you one thing that scares me is that this health care program does not cover illegals, but as soon as it passes the next big push will be legalize all of them and then they will get their health care right along with everything else for free (not that they don’t now). Those who have entered this country need to leave and come in the correct way. I’m not opposed to opening the doors but not the flood gates.
Maybe, Bush wasn’t such a bad president after all.
Igor, Your name says it all…ignorance!!!!!!!!!!!
Now if that is not an oximoron or what?
Intellectual Liberal.
Liberals are the most closed minded people on earth.
Push their button on global warming now being changed to global climate change, and they will regurgitate the same words verbatim all over the world. It like the creeds of a religion.
Seriously! Where the hell is this getting reposted?
I miss him. Anything that makes a lefty socialist liberal angry is a great thing.
well you would be correct sir, but you forgot one thing the shoe bomber was just after 9/11 and the systems that are now in place for these situations werent…and because that happened with bush and knew it was a bad he and congress created a system thru military tribunals…..so if your site history atleast know all of it!
wow that was probably the dumbest diatribe i have heard yet! im a f’n s..c my stepfather is straight off the boat african….its not racism that makes me not like his policies, its the policies themselves! and if these policies work so well, why has every other nation that has done what he is doing been destroyed by them or completely marginalized. tell me a society where this has worked. what jobs have been created, how do you prove a negative? the only jobs he can legitimitly point would be gov’t jobs and there is no wealth created by such jobs…….tax payers pay for those. your an idiot!
so would you say that districts that dont exist or beauracrats and gov’t jobs is smart place to put money do you really think that, that multiply’s?
Quick question so the constant decline in almost all these graphs still today, after a Year of Obama, it’s still Bushes fault? Bush might have been a bad president but Obama isn’t showing signs of improvement….
I stand corrected.
) However, you do understand the meaning of the message.
Heck yeah…
Anybody would be better than this group of idiots we have running the country now. I say we get rid of all of the current group of crooks (politicians) and get a new set
I am an Eonomist. I can tell you that government spending takes money out of the economy and spends it at about 85% efficiency (at thats a kind estimate). When the government spends and borrows, there is less money for businesses which employ people, small businesses in general, people to spend, people to borrow money, etc.
They did. Pay attention.
I stand corrected. However, you still understand the meaning of the post.
Don’t know if anyone’s posted this. From Snopes:

One word, Yes!
Does it ever occur to you that any actual legitimate point you may have to make (such as whether Obama is doing what he should and how what he is or isn’t doing is affecting the public’s view of him) is completely buried when you insist on acting like a kindergartner on the playground calling people names?
Has he failed to work effectively with Congress to actually get things done? Are the plans he’s put forth going to be effective and actually do what he claims? What is needed in a stimulus bill to actually stimulate the economy and is Obama doing anything along those lines? Should airplane bombers be tried in civilian or military courts? Has Obama been a disappointment to his supporters and, if so, why?
Reasonable questions. Bring ‘em on. Let’s discuss.
But sigh, no. you don’t want to do that. Much easier to yell “Hussein!” as if his middle name was at all significant of anything.
Now go off and complain about being dismissed as irrational and childish and bitch about not being allowed to sit at the adult’s table.
I figure the answer is obvious, but I’ll ask anyway.

To all those that question whether President Obama loves this country, I say this…I question whether or not YOU love this country. (Based on the same logic as you, none). I don’t think you’re racist, I just think you’re ignorant. So very ignorant. Claiming the man doesn’t love this country because you don’t like him. Talk about the bottom of the barrel. You morons keep spitting out talking points, but you’ree not really saying anything. “Obama has gotten away with so much ’stuff’…”, are you fucking 10 years old? What “stuff” has he gotten away with that you speak of? How about this, all the “Stuff” that Bush did, helped lead us into this mess. I am not going ot blame it all on him, but you have to be rather dense not to be aware of that. Now Obama is in a positin to fix all the “stuff” that fell in his lap when he won the election. Guess what, some of it ain’t going so well. You got me there. You wanna throw a fucking tea party now, go ahead. Have a cup of lipton tea and bang your fist on the ground. Funny how when 9/11 happened, you ignorant republicans said it was because of something he inherited from Clinton. Remember that? I sure do. SO now when Obama “inherits” something bad from Bush, you cry like a 10 year old girl when anyoe says it might have been inherited. You speak out of both sides of your mouth and it makes you look foolish. It’s no wonder nobody takes your party leaders seriously. God help us all when you try and reaosn with someone who only learns their vocabulary for Fox News.
I believe the only ones missing Bush are those suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. This is a serious problem for America and we need some type of mass therapy for all those suffering.
Stockholm Syndrome a paradoxical psychological phenomenon wherein hostages express adulation and have positive feelings towards their captors.
Normally this applies to individual captors but there its apparent that the right half of America are suffering from this phenomenon having being subjected to the Bush trance for 8 years. They behave like a cult following their leader into oblivion. Remember Jonestown.
Lets hope we find a cure fast.

You Bet I miss This Guy,
He makes Zero (O) look like a little league player. Zero doesn’t amount to anything more than a pimple on the a** of Bush. I have fun watching Zero lose support and it is even more heartening to see that Zero has a lower opinion rating than Bush did at the same point in his term. Little Boy Zero has shown his lack of Wisdom, Experience, Intelligence, Understanding. His On Job training is going poorly too because he is such a slow learner.
Zero is a blessing to America in that it has woken up those who were allowing the patients (Dims) to run the asylum. Now that the Tiger is awake, Zero is getting his scrawny ass in the jaw of a mighty and unforgiving populace.
Go Zero, Go! The more you talk, the more you dig the hole for Dims all over the USA. 2010 is going to be an ass kicking for Dims. 2012 will be more of an ass kicking. Conservatism WILL rule again and Dims will be thrown to the trash heap of political society where they rightfully belong.
An interesting tour into a murky mind set that I usually turn away from reflexively, although I cannot help but feel a little bit for the day to day Frank Burns’s whose sage guidance and ever patient “for whom the bell trolls” thread jacking has been preempted by a very special episode of Americas Funniest Home Morans. If they do not receive the proper amount of attention and validation, starvation will surely ensue.
What a load of horseshit. Are you saying that we were not prepared to prosecute Richard Reid? Because you would be wrong.
hy has every other nation that has done what he is doing been destroyed by them or completely marginalized
Such as? Name some destroyed countries. And while you’re at it, tell me “what he is doing?”
Recovery from worldwide economic collapse takes some time.
How can you say that it is not his fault. As the leader of the country he is to blame for all of it. Yes Sh– does flow downhill but if your subordinates are making the mistakes you need to take care of it. And that includes the people in the private sector as well. If you have a few kids and your kids are creating a very sectoral setting in the family, things like taking the toys and secluding the other child, or maybe even not helping a brother or sister when they are in trouble, then you are a dead beat parent.
President Obama is doing a great job. Yes things are not getting fixed but he at least is trying to fix things. President Bush raised his hands and said to hell with you, I’m doing it my way or no way at all, if your not going to play by my rules I’m taking YOUR ball and leaving to go cry to Daddy that they aren’t playing nice, and that you should get your cronies to stick up for me by buying everything around them so they can’t afford to not play my way.
Fu-k Bush, and Fu-k the attitude that people are saying that he did a better job. If they liked it so much being his bitch they should start a new country, isn’t that what they said back when we questioned that administration?
the left wing liberals or progressives or democrats whichever name you prefer i can see are just so upset with a billboard in a rural minnesota community, this is almost to good to be true. healthcare “not” cap and tax “not” most of you can’t seem to come to a realization that a president is only a man or maybe in the future a woman, do i miss george? you bet at least he had a backbone, don’t bother to respond i’m changing the channel to this post only so i can go somewhere else to annoy the misguided braindead liberal’s, or progressives or democrats or whatever you call yourselves tommorrow. nothings free it all earned with the work of strong willed free minded thinking people with the truth not the gossip or the lies. CYA
They are all idiots. They ruined our country in 8 years. They expect Obama to fix their mess in 1 year.

Mmhmm. Bush loved America just as much as a man who beats his wife claims to love her. Or maybe I got that wrong and you mean the ‘ideal’ America. You know, the one where all the rich people get the benefits and the poor people go away.
Oh and his name is OBAMA. Barak Hussein Obama alright?
Surely no one should be supprised that Obama is a flop.He pissed everybody off when he could not give all that he promised.Don’t promise a bum something and not deliver.
Hey QB, don’t go confusing the issue with those pesky fact thingys….
I agree whole heartedly.
Yes. God bless George Bush.
Also, how does a picture of a flooded New Orleans (and someone above saying EVERY natural disaster reminds them of bush) prove Bush did anything wrong? Does he have the power to stop hurricanes and just decides not to? [sarcasm]Sounds a lot like god to me, and i’ve actually seen GW, so I know who i should pray to.
I worked hard all my life, then became disabled. Yes, disabled. Not a drug addict, just unable to work. So I’m a socialist for collecting a very small portion of all that money I paid into Social Security while I was working? Every time I see some moron ranting about all the “lazy” people costing the country money, I want to puke. They have no clue what it is like to be unable to work. Oh, and you think that since discrimination because of disability is illegal that it doesn’t exist? Try going to a job interview in a wheelchair, then sit by the phone. Hope you are comfy, because you’ll be there awhile. People who are unemployed are often in the same boat. They are blindsided by something beyond their control. In these cases it isn’t a disability that takes away their ability to work, but a president who runs the country’s economy into the ground by pissing away money on an illegal war. Miss him? About as much as I miss the plague.
You’re clearly under matched debating with these sohpomores. Perhaps reality and fiction are like CNN and Fox news but they haven’t quite yet made the distinction. I agree that liberals may be responsible for the billboard; though difficult to prove, I just don’t think conservatives are naive enough to open up such an easily preyed upon topic. Then again, they were stupid enough to think that a Presidential Q&A would improve their status. Yeah it’s hard to say with this one.
[...] billboard, put up by some small-business owners in Minnesota, is causing some consternation on the left. But it seems reasonable to at least have a poll, so vote below. Democrats are reportedly working [...]
Wow, this thread is amazing…
I never realised that some folks in the U.S.A. were this reality-phobic!
Blah-blah Bush blah Obama blah-blah Medicare blah War blah-blah Recession.
Yet no one seems to have any real idea of how to begin to fix it, probably because your political system is corrupt and designed to be a simple good-guy vs bad-guy two party thing that polarises any discussion into moronic rants. Democracy? my arse.
“Light blue touchpaper and retire”
I don’t miss that jacka?? at all. Glad his time was up and glad we didn’t vote in his old man little pig. Can’t stand Dubya at all. Everyone that even thinks he was for the middle class needs to re-think that. He was and always has been for the wealthy. I’m talking the multi-millionares.

Wow….Bravo Enlightened Liberal, with that comment you just demonstrated your OWN ignorant racial assumptions (as did fafaroo). Perhaps you could work on that in therapy since I highly doubt you are a mind reader. There is no reason to believe that Josh was focusing on African Americans with his thoughts about welfare (unless deep down inside YOU YOURSELF have the belief/fear that it is only minorities who abuse the system). Josh was simply making the observation that the welfare system needs some re-vamping (WHICH IT DOES)to discourage those who take advantage of it needlessly (by making it their career paycheck) from continuing to do so & ENCOURAGING them to be productive (thus freeing up welfare money for those who TRULY need the ’short-term’ assistance to pull them through a hard time). It is not a white/black issue….there are people in BOTH races that abuse it as well as need it (and as far as abusers…the people that quickly come to mind in my area are white).
Personally I say “right on Josh!” – if only the government would recognize the problem/waste….if only the government would ENCOURAGE people to think about & take responsibility for their choices (including CHOOSING to shrug birthd control & having children with multiple partners, CHOOSING to quit a stable job because they admittedly don’t wish to work, CHOOSING to refuse support/housing etc from family WHO WANTS TO HELP….when it should be family they FIRST rely on before CHOOSING to have the public support them). Haven’t run into any welfare abusers in your neck of the woods? I suggest you crawl out of the windowless box you must live in open your eyes a bit wider…these people do not hide it anymore in shame ~ many now BOAST about how they ‘get around the system’.

THANK YOU…that is one of the BEST posts written with respect to the what people ‘percieve’ as their ‘rights’!!
I miss W very much!! That one in office now is an IDIOT!!!
First of all, Economy crash is Bill Clinton’s fault.
He was one who legalize credit swap or aka bucket shop. Plus he surplussed all military equipments, why is that even necessary
Liberals never fail to amuse me with their stupidity.
What does Bush have that obama dont? 2nd term. You guys are blind.
[...] are so many possible responses to the question, but the most concise answer comes from blogger Oliver [...]
Never thought I’d say it, but yes, I miss Bush. Now we have a Communist, incompetent boob in the office. Spread the wealth doesn’t work, look at history. He’s a liar, liar, liar. Did I mention liar. Stop the over spending. Throwing money at deadbeats breeds more deadbeats.
Bush certainly isn’t missed .. but I don’t think we’ve had a decent president office in decades.
I’ve never seen(heard, read) so many morons in my life! Bush caused the flooding? and the rest of the pics????. I didn’t like a lot of what he did, but he is a LOT better than the socialist Obama. It is bad when your hate(ignorance)is so high that you can’t seperate reality for fiction(and propoganda)!
thats horrible!
oh wow, Rahm Emanuel found this website! That’s some serious traffic.
I think it is amazing that all of the drones think that Bush started this mess, is everyone forgetting that majority of the garbage Bush gets credit for just fell on his watch. This mess goes all the way back to Carter and each and every President in between then and now had a hand in what went down during Bush’s time, including him but not limited to him at all. I agree with you CJ, but I can’t wait till the day when everyone is choking on their words about G.W. I’m saving a good bottle for that day! Cheers!
The Door Is Sealed Forever thank God NO But Hell No!
Gee, y’all ‘Mericans are a funny bunch with your silly name calling and strange dichotomy politics. Don’t you all get steamed up easily?
Dumb-o-crats? Leftards? Even funnier is what seems to be worse than a stinky liberal? A progressive! Cos like, progress is bad mmmkay! So what’s the preferred alternative? A regressive?
Am I glad I don’t live in the US.
Yeah, I miss you George – just like I miss getting my wisdom teeth yanked. Only that didn’t take 8 years!
Anyone would be better than the bunch of republican morons we just removed from office last year.
In fact, no has done more to damage this country than George W. Bush and Dick Cheney than any one in History.
Miss Bush? Why no. I am satisfied with the increase in terrorist activity on US soil again, allowing captured terrorists constitutional rights of US citizens, school shootings, health care overhaul with no tort reform, union bosses visiting the White House a record number of times, current administration taking credit for the Iraq surge, record unemployment, Czars, higher taxes, government take overs of banks and auto companies, bigger deficits and the current priority focus on gay rights. Yes, times are great again – and , when are we getting out of Gitmo? Bring on the hope and change!
Josh, and the others who have served in our military –
Thank you for your service. I’m sure reading posts above make you wonder why you would protect this country. It’s clear to see that you also received a lot of education in our Nation’s history that I, for one, have forgotten since taking American Democracy classes in school. I do wish that your typing skills matched your intellect.
Who would want Baby Bush back? Here is a man (along with Chaney and his cronies) who in a mere 8 years nearly destroyed the WORLD economy, who trampled on the liberties guaranteed by the US Constitution in order to pursue not 1 but 2 wars, who knew in months in advance that the 9/11 attack was coming and chose to do NOTHING to prevent it, who sanctioned torture of prisoners in the supposed belief that such internationally illegal activity would keep this country safe, who lied, cheated and distorted the facts in order to manipulate the public into blindly following his dictates.
Bush betrayed everything the US once stood for. He tarnished our reputation with the rest of the world, and therefore diminished our ability to work for peace and harmony. He betrayed the trust put in his position as president, and therefore betrayed us. He is a traitor to this country, and so are those conservatives who would try to continue his policies and practices. They are traitors and should be treated as such.
The Baby Bush presidency is the worst in living memory. (Only Palin could do a worse job.) Miss him ? HELL NO !!!!!!!!!!!
All Obama has done is spend us into oblivion and he hasn’t occomplished one single thing. When will liberals learn that the evil capitalism that they so despise is why this country is so great.
NEWSFLASH — You are the one who’s responsible for helping yourself. The government is only going to get in the way and leave you empty handed. Ha hahaha keep voting Democrat, sooner or later they’ll deliver your utopia.
Another thing… global warming is a hoax, the health care bill is only designed to screw us, and a jobs bill won’t create jobs. When you run a business, you learn a thing or two about the economy. That’s the real economy, not the one you read about in a book at Harvard.
hell yes
Hows all that hope and change working for you. How about a president that can’t provide a birth certificate, has sh-t for experience, and no qualifications to be president.
YES any one is bwtter then whats there now
I have always said that we Americans don’t learn from our mistakes. There is no comparison between Obama and Bush. Bush sent our children to death by following his own agendas, destroyed our national reputation and respect from our allies, recklessly gave the rich more tax cuts despite they continued moving their businesses to Mexico/other countries, did not pay attention to our economy’s down-turn, grew the government even larger (despite what Republicans still insist that he did not), national deficit grew to the largest ever, closed/shrunk some important social services due to lack of funds (yes by starting wars, we no longer can afford much),those social services would reduce serious crimes, do I even need to say more???!!
I for one, won’t EVER vote for a Republican, because they don’t represent average American like me.
Laura, I should not be shocked by your ignorance, people like you and Maggie are so BLINDED by religion that you can not see THE REAL ISSUES.
Let me en-light you for a few seconds, maybe you think again and reconsider what is @ stake. GWB lies and sent our soldiers (our brothers and sisters)to war for his own self-indulgence but yet some of us Republicans still think of Bush as a man of God???!! have you lost your senses?? who gives him the right to kill our soldiers in the name of God but yet he preaches about killing fetus is against Gods will????!!! Come on people, WAKE UP….
That would be congress as the president has no power to levy taxes or collesct them
Then, do you prefer the 2008 economy, we had under Bush? If that is what you want to go back to, then you probably never had any money to begin with. As for Clinton, don’t know about you, but my portfolio was doing just fine, when he was President. Those who have no ground to stand on, like to go back and mention his ’sex’ scandal. That had absolutely nothing to do with his job as President and you know it.
Whoever put up that billboard, made a huge mistake, because it just reminds us of the follies of George Bush. Then there is a resounding NO,HELL NO!
Marco,
Just wait, you haven’t seen anything yet. Just wait until we have President Palin! There will be enough dyin’ and embarrassment to go around.That gal can do a lot of damage in just a few months. Republicans better be careful what they wish for.
what I wonder is where is all the anti Bush war protestors? Hasn’t Obama expanded Afgan war? Isn’t he gearing up for Yemen? If Clinton hadn’t been so busy F…. Monica he would have seen 911 coming.
New set of crooks you mean? About the devil you know is better than the one your do not….Americans are seeing the glass half full as always.
Forgot what it means to be thankful, or civil, or truthful, or learned, or an entrepeneur . The republican idea was to make everyone, fat dumb and happy, they have succeded except for happy.
How’s the Hope & Change doing for you?
Three times the national debt Bush left
Unemployment at all time high
More foreclosures than ever before
More business closing than ever before
NOT ONE program passed other than more spending
New taxes on the way – for everyone
Every promise made broken
Briberary for health care struck down
Failed health plan
And of course we can depend on those in the administration to call anyone who disagrees with them a fucking retard per “Rahm Emanuel”.
Bush may not be the president we wanted but Obama makes Bush look good.
THE ONLY BUSH I TRUST IS MY OWN!
NOBODY IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD MISS BUSH BEING PRESIDENT!!!!
Are these business men who want to remain anonymous for real or are they just trying to be funny. This was the worst president in American History. Our country is where it is today because of W. This guy should have never been voted into office. There is no one in the history of America who was less qualified to be president. He was voted in only by name and because the GOP thought they could control him, that didnt happen and all the lies he campaigned on were never even nearly accomplised. Lets see small government, well government expanded to record levels during his admin. Fiscal responsibility, well we all know where we are today. Schools, we are still trying to fix his policies and thats just to name a few of his lies. Now the war, why would we think that someone who could never manage himself, much less any company, (W. could not even keep a job growing up), so why would we think he could lead a war effort. Yes, sad to say and I hate to admit it but I voted for W. I have since learned my lesson I will never be lied to again. The climate in Washington will not change until we quit electing rich kids with there fathers name. We have also got to quit electing career politicians who grew up with a silver spoon in their mouths, these types of politicians are only out for themselves, telling the public anything to get elected. Just like W.it is not about serving the american people, how dare him to stoop that low, it is about having someone like Karl Rove tell you what to say that is politically correct, then getting elected and doing what you want. Washington has turned into a fraternity for rich kids, who are out of touch with the american people. They go there to party and fight with the other side. They have completely forgotten why they are there, and yes this started with W. I think its so bad after the last 8 years that I dont know if it can be fixed. So my answer to this billboard is not in my lifetime.
Wow! Here I was looking for some new information to learn from. I guess I made a wrong turn. This was a total waste of my time..and I won’t be back.
George Bush rocks! You guys are obviously all complete and utter idiots.
Amazing, amazing, you all stood by while W/Cheney lied and started two wars that should have been avoided. WMD’S were never found by the UN inspectors, so Bush Started bombing because he knew they were’nt there. Bin Laden would be dead or in jail if this were handled as a terrorist action by the international police bureau’s, we had the whole world behind us until W/Cheney plan became clear. So we went to war, wasting lives, money and resources. Stupid is as stupid does. Are we a country of laws and justice or kidnappers, torturers, killers, liars and demigods.
It’s ALL Obama’s fault. Ever since the dinosaurs were wiped out – sages across the eons of time have fortold the coming of the antichrist. And his name is Scott Brown.
thank you!!!! Sheesh, people! You don’t buy a house you can’t afford, then blame it on Bush when the bank takes it back because you can’t make the payments!!
Unemployment above the 8% max that Joker said it would go too, 17% in some places
The Democrats Community action program forcing lenders to make loans to people who couldn’t possibly pay them back – all the way from Clintons years, but we can blame Bush for liberal stupidity,
Escalating war in Afghanistan after promising to bring an end to all the wars,
Joker bowing and scraping to countries such as Iran and Saudi Arabia, making us look like the liberal cowards and laughing stock that the Noble Peace prize committee showed the world we actually are,
The 12 trillion dollar deficit which Joker can easily claim half of and will sink generations to come,
The ‘I promise to be totally transparent and block line item earmarks, putting all discussions on C-span’ and then gets hailed as a fantastic president for doing exactly the opposite,
The lobbyist pandering, 9000 pork projects in ‘sinkyouall’ bill and blatant pandering to special interests,
Telling the right to fuck off with their ideas for government legislation, then blaming the right for not coming up with any ideas at the state of the union address,
Crossing political boundaries by ridiculing the supreme court – none of your professional nor political business you arrogant piece of crap – stay within your own branch of government,
A health care bill that everyone knows will do nothing and still couldn’t pass with a supermajority – had to blatantly BRIBE Nebraska senator, and Joker still failed,
Nominating a racist, anti white-male bigot to the supreme court, pardoning the term Negro dialect because it was a Dem and stating typical white people are baseline racist and then complaining it’s the right who has problems,
Achieved absolutely nothing first year other than showing what a disaster having an inexperienced moron who was voted in because of his skin color actually is,
Not closing Guantanamo, reversing trials in New York and giving more rights to terrorists than most US citizens get,
Increasing taxes on everyone who pays taxes by allowing ALL tax bands to increase at the end of 2010,
Can’t speak for shit without a teleprompter and actually pronounces Corpsman as corPSEman – but no, its Bush who couldn’t speak a word without sounding dumb.
Yes, bring back Bush – bring back anyone – I would have anyone other than giggles the clown who is currently in the White House
I sure hope you are one of the richer ones who Obama plans on taking from and giving to the ones who have less. For me, I don’t want to work my a__ off for you or anyone else. Bush put money in everyone’s pocket including yours. Have you forgotten about 9/11? Most Democrats have. Were we attacked on our land after 9/11 while Bush was in office. NO!!! Have we been attacked on our land while our Muslim President is in office? YES!!! And, what has he done about it???? NOTHING!!!! Just wait until the next big one and hope you’re not in it.
You are 100% right. Obama isn’t fit nor qualified to be President of the Unnited States of America.
YOU ARE SUCH AN IDIOT AND OBVIOUSLY A STUPID DEMOCRAT!!!!!! I HOPE YOU ENJOY THE SOCIALIST PRESIDENT WE HAVE NOW BUDDY BECAUSE HE WON’T BE IN THERE FOR A SECOND TERM!!!!!
WOW IS RIGHT!!!! YOU MUST BE ONE OF THE LOWER CLASS DEMOCRATS WHO VOTED FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME TO ELECT ONE OF YOUR KIND. I’M SURE YOU PLAN ON CASHING IN ON SOME OF THE TAX MONEY OBAMA IS GOING TO GIVE TO YOU!!! YEAH, RIGHT, YOU WON’T SEE A CENT OF THAT MONEY. OBAMA IS A SOCIALIST PIG WHO HATES AMERICA AND WANTS TO BECOME A DICTATOR. WELL, IT ISN’T GOING TO HAPPEN!!!! SORRY, SORRY!!!
I do believe the number of idiotic unpatriotic left wing morons would disappear if we made Congress meet in Guantanamo Bay
It’s a shame Obama doesn’t have the guts of this President.
America, Canada , all Europe …… Needs a President like this….
Prime MinisterKevin Rudd- Australia
Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia , as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks..
Separately, Howard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation’s mosques..
Quote:
“IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.”
“This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom. We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, Learn the Language!”
“Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.”
“We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.”
“This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, THE RIGHT TO LEAVE..”
“If you aren’t happy here then LEAVE. We didn’t force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.”
Maybe if we circulate this , American citizens will find the backbone to start speaking and voicing the same truths..
This is not posted for discussion, if you disagree simply delete!
If you agree, please SEND THIS ON..
MAN, ARE YOU SO STUPID!!! MUST BE A DEMOCRAT!!!!
JOSH, YOU ARE THE ONE WHO MAKES ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE AND IF IT WAS NOT FOR YOUR VULGAR EXPRESSIONS, YOU WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO REPLY TO ANY OF THE COMMENTS. YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY ONE OF THE ONES WHO DO NOT WORK AND EXPECT OBAMA TO SUPPORT YOU. GOOD LUCK!!!
Obama is so bad I miss Bush and Clinton!
I have read a good number of comments regarding the Bush billboard. It seems that the democrats and republicans what to blame each other for everything. Well I see it like Lewis Black. When a republican stands up in congress and says I have a really bad idea, there is always a democrat that follows up with yes, and I can make it even shittier!
Yes we Miss Him.
And most poeple do. It may not be fashionable.
They may not tell you. But they do.
YES,DURING CLINTON’S TERM BIN LAUDEN COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED WHEN HE WAS SPOTTED.YOU HAVE TO HAVE AUTHORIZATION FROM THE PRESIDENT & ALSO FROM THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT AT THE WHITE HOUSE ON COLLATERAL DAMAGE TO DESTROY THE TARGET.ALSO, DO YOU KNOW THAT ALL ATTACKS AMERICAN SOLDIER’S,MARINES,AIR FORCE AND NAVY MAKE HAVE TO BE CLEARED THROUGH THE LEGAL OFFICE OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT?
Yes, Bush had some extraordinary weaknesses and one gargantuan fault that I believe was his greatest error: He only vetoed 12 bills in his entire administration (one was a pocket veto). You have to go back to Warren Harding to find a president that vetoed fewer bills. He let the liberal democrats get away with murder allowing such atrocities as the “Affordable Housing” legislation concocted by Chris Dodd, Barney Frank and a little known junior senator named Barack Obama. This is the legislation that led to the mortgage meltdown in the latter part of the Bush administration. We all blamed Bush for this financial crisis and rightfully so. He should bear the brunt of the public wrath, for he could have prevented it all by simply applying a milligram of ink on the bill and inscribing one word – VETO!
When they brought it up they were called racists because they were “limiting the access to buy a home to minorities.”
Why is setting good policy, or trying to reverse bad ones, considered racist?
Yes. Definitely Yes. I was better off the last eight (8) years before Obama Mama took over. He has ruin the Private Sector business i.e. GM formerly GENERAL MOTORES now GM (Government Motors) by putting his unknowledgeable nose in their business. As for the almighty one is too busy shoving Health Care Reform down our throats which a vast majority of the US citizens DON’T WANT. I am quite satisfied with my health plan.
I and many others served this country for many years and were promised health care for life. That will be soon be changed because obama mama says so. Medicare that I counted on to carrying me through those GOLDEN YEARS are having many $$$$ removed from that program to pay for those illegal aliens who cannot follow the US laws. WHAT MAKES PEOPLE THINK THAT THEY WILL OBEY OUR LAWS WHEN THEY CANNOT OBEY TO ENTER THIS COUNTRY? bUT, Obama mama has the plan WE’LL JUST MAKE THEM US CITIZENS.
What does Obama have to HIDE???? Can’t come up with a Birth Certificate??? Won’t have his college transcripts and records opened to the public – WHY??? Maybe these records will reflect that he was accepted into college under a visa (indicating that he was accepted as a non U.S. Citizen.
One more issues – HE IS THE BIGGEST LIAR ON THIS PLANET. No one will have to pay taxes if they earn under $250,000. This part might be true because he is planning hiddent taxes i.e. tax on food (peoplle will have eat less because food will cost more); more taxes on energy i.e. gasoline, electric, etc (people will not be able to travel to work, reduce the heating of the house causing people to get sick, etc.)
THAT’S WHAT HE CALLS C H A N G E.
