Paul Campbell's lies match the Clintons'
When Bush was selected into office, he inherited more than a $5 trillion surplus and has turned it into a $4 trillion deficit.
I can't stand this lie!
There was no 5 trillion surplus.
There was only a small yearly surplus.
The larger amount was only attainable if the economic conditions had remained the same.
Even without the recession and 9-11, an asteroid might have ended that so-called surplus as well as life on the planet.
Would the Chicken Littles blame Bush for that too?

Franklin D. Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson and Bill Clinton are just a few presidents in the last century who have been able to dream of a better America before taking office.This is the Lobo's list of dreamers? Lets take a look at that.
FDR - His solution to the unemployment rate was to just have the Government hire them. World War II was the real reason that the economy recovered during his tenure.
JFK - As the only demorat with enough brains to cut taxes to stimulate growth, he didn't live long enough to know if he would have kept up the trend.
LBJ - Creator of the Welfare State. We all know how beneficial that has been. We now have a generation of Americans who expect everything to be handed to them without any effort put out on thier own.
Bill Clintoon - Yeah, here's a visioniary. This man accomplished a lot in eight years. After 8 years no country or organization had any repect for the United States despite the fact that Reagan made us the sole superpower on the planet. He also managed to undermine our intellegence to the point that it was child's play for a rouge militant group to murder over 3000 American citizens on American soil. But don't be a religious cult, because he would burn you. And he managed to do all this with his fly down.
But it's all OK because the Univerisity of New Mexico is a state school, and taxpayer's money can be spent on printing political garbage as long as it's liberal trash. <./sarcasm>.

This raises the larger question that if we are taking away our civil rights, what are we fighting for?I'd sure like to meet this creep in a dark alley.
I'd show him what's worth fighting for!!
I have not lost a single right.
I'm only slightly inconvenienced at the airport.
I can live with that.

Hate to burst your bubble here Paul me boy, but Bush isn't leaving office until 2005 at the earliest.
To: NorCoGOP
By playing upon the fears that Americans have concerning terrorism, the Bush administration has been able to get what it wants by simply calling opponents "evil."Evil applies as well to Democrats.
For a generation they have been preying upon the fears of senior citizens and using the BIG LIE just like the nazis that they are.

Where do these people dig this stuff up? Clinton and Carter are the only two living Presidents that shiv a git about their legacies. Pathetic...

When Bush leaves office next year, he will not leave behind a better or stronger America.By election day 2004, President Bush will preside over a healthy economy - not like the cooked-books bubble of Clinton's time.
The stock market will be higher than when he took office and I would bet that the unemployment number will be down near 5.
And when President Bush leaves office in January of 2009, America will be extremely grateful for his enduring service!!

Bill Clintoon ........... And he managed to do all this with his fly down.The past two presidents were both known as "fly guys".
But for different reasons. lol

I thought it'd be January 20, 2005. The friggin Clintons still think they're still in the WH. And Carter? Another delusion dolt.

So this author is saying that America is better off because of the JFK LBJ created Vietnam War?
To: NorCoGOP
80s (R)- The beginning of the end of the Soviet Union. America moves to sole super-power status.
90s (D)- Failed move to socialistic health care, otherwise unremarkable.
00s (R)- The beginning of the end of world-wide terrorism. America moves to depose despots in every corner of the world.
To: NorCoGOP
Franklin D. Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson and Bill Clinton:
Roosevelt allowed Pearl Harbor and got us well on the way to socialism; John Kennedys best contribution was Ask not what your country
; Lyndon Johnson increased (greatly) government give-away programs; Bill Clinton
where do I begin?
Last paragraph of this piece of crap: Bush could have asked Americans to join organizations such as Teach For America and AmeriCorps. Two MORE government programs to FURTHER indoctrinate our kids.
The rest of the last paragraph is EXACTLY what Bush said and did!
Last sentence makes even less sense than the rest of the article. Barf alert is correct!!

Franklin D. Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson and Bill Clinton are just a few presidents in the last century who have been able to dream of a better America before taking office I would say they had very different dreams of what the Presidential office was/is about.

A typical, clueless, liberal rant. The really tragic thing is that this goofball probably believes the utter crap he's written here. The other really tragic thing is that there are millions more Americans as stupid as he is. I don't know how these people manage to function from day to day. Is it drugs, or is it just natural stupidity that makes these people as nutty as they are?

Dammit, Al Quaeda ran off with your spark plugs while W slept.
As for the Senate, we used to have one, but the Dems no longer want it to function if they don't have a majority. Therefore, we no longer have one until control is handed back over.

When Bush was selected into office, he inherited more than a $5 trillion surplus and has turned it into a $4 trillion deficit.And it is hyperbole like this that makes valid criticism of Bush take a backseat in the public debate. The way I see it, there are very real problems with the Bush administration:
- Bush has systematically failed to lock down our borders. While he imposed new restrictions on our freedom, he has failed to seal the most obvious, gapping security hole in our country today. Bush's "national security plan" is like putting up sandbags during a hurricane when over the horizon a 200ft tidal wave is approaching.
- Bush has not even addressed the issue of Wahabi recruiting in our prisons, private Islamic schools, etc. Hey Ann Coulter, you want to call every leftist a traitor? How about you ask Bush why his administration has not clamped down on Islamist recruiting in the US. Mother of God, this is the equivalent of the CCCP openly operating in our universities during the Cold War with "Uncle Stalin wants YOU for the Soviet KGB" posters all around campus.
- Bush's tax cuts are not good longterm planning. If you want long term tax cuts that last, you need to pay off the national debt first. If Bush had privatized those 800,000 jobs AND cut the national debt in half by this time, he could make a case by his second term for permanent income tax cuts that would eventually lead to a strong case for being able to safely get rid of the income tax altogether.
- North Korea was and is a belligerant nation with a regular army almost 2x the size of ours. They have made known their intent and possible possession of nuclear weapons and their capability to use them if "provoked." Saddam was often more worried about staying in power than hurting us. Don't get me wrong, he was a threat and removing him was a good idea, but the timing was wrong. The difference between Iraq and NK is that with Iraq 1-5 years from now, we might have to worry about a nuclear attack, with NK we may now have to start worrying about one, or several on the west coast.
- Cuba jams our sattelites and that's not an act of war? Next time those could be the GPS sattelites we guide our ordinance with. Cuba should have gotten a warning to the effect that if they didn't immediately cease they'd be attacked.
Bush isn't bad, but the 2000 election was sorta like voting for the Antichrist or Satan himself. Neither Gore nor Bush are friends of limited government. Bush is almost a fifth columnist in that he has successfully diverted conservatives away from the goal of rolling back the government's size and jurisdiction. All "Compassionate Conservatism" reall is is a concession to the Socialists that government is not only an acceptable means to "fix society's problem" but that it is usually the best means.
