wasn’t the lady from FL who said in ‘08 Obama was going to fill her gas tank and pay her mortgage/rent? Too many of those folks around that truly will believe it.

We have a hard, uphill battle.

Go Newt!!!!

“IF bush and his cronies had done what they should have done and IF bush were not the progressive that his daddy is... had he and the republican elite done what should have been done when they had majority control... obama would never have been elected and there would be no American Energy Crisis”

If Bush had, If Bush had... Yes Bush pulled some boners, but the Mortgage Mess was in the works since Carter. Remember the Savings and Loan Scandals of the 80’s? That was also all about the Dems gaining favor with voters through “giving” them housing - they could not afford. I was in Real Estate when if banks did not loan to certain people, they could get into big trouble. So Uncle Sam made it much easier (too easy) for homebuyers to get loans - thought to be guaranteed by the government - not unlike the mortgage mess of the 1990’s-2000’s. Before Bush

I know all about the history involved with the meltdown... and I understand it... and my post did not deal in absolutes... but if it were not for bush (really bugged you it seems)... there would have been no obama... had bush had the balls to use Executive Orders to promote American exceptionalism and superiority and energy independence and defended his pro America decisions by annihilating enemies that challenged his orders... much the same way that obama does... ANWAR would have come on line and many other pro American energy plans and bills would have been passed or come to fruition.

Every good financial deed that bush did was negated by his comment, “I had to ignore my Free Market ideology to save it”. That was a false statement by a man either too stupid or too uneducated in economics to know the proper answer to the problem. No entity is too big to fail... including the US government... especially the US government.

THIS is why it is so important to elect someone that will do the hard things... will make the hard and unpopular decisions that will save America and stand firm in backing up those decisions. That is why I will NOT vote for romney... or ever vote for another bush for any office. I am done with the progressives in either party. The republican elite, along with their "esteemed friends across the isle"... have brought us to the brink of destruction. New tone my arse!

Navy: 68 to 88

The USMC and the USN together can pursue any conflict anywhere in the world to a successful conclusion. The other two always need our help.
