Hey, nitwits, wake up. The Obama regime hasn't even started. He takes the oath of office (and commits perjury when he swears allegiance to the Constitution) on Jan. 20.
I don’t think he has done jack yet, even though the media is trying to attribute things like the drop in gas prices.
The Obamanation will be the largest transfer of wealth from the winners(Republicans) to losers (dems) in history. It will be done in a "vote buying fashion" as is currently being negotiated with the unions.
Only those that are large voter groups of the dems will get the wealth of the nation(ours).
The dems are masters at vote buying. Its all they know/ have. Since they are a party with a hollow core they either buy enough votes from mindless robots or lose. They do it with "our" money as well, a little trick they learned from the terror types.
This adm. will also exit Free Market Capitalism in favor of bailout nation and socialism/Marxism. And there is little we can do about it since there are just enough rinos who will allow it to happen.
At the end of Commandante Zeros adm. the nation will be broke, the dollar collapsed,inflation will be on the way and the economy will be more and more dependent on socialism as the engine rather than free market capitalism.
In other words we are screwed.!
Galvanized Resolve.
That’s exactly right.
Maybe yours is as well? What is the point of this post?
To point out that, unlike your remarks, there are a lot of people who could have done far worse than President Bush.
I thought it went without saying. Ridiculous rhetoric? Really.
I have survived a dozen presidencies. At least five of them did worse than Bush. If you can't see how ridiculous your posts were, there is no point in further comment.
“there is no point in further comment” (Between us)
At last, something you and I agree on.
Good Day
Better 34% 2,318
Worse 12% 783
I’m not sure, but definitely much more entertaining! 54% 3,663

C'mon. That's not over the top. You could expand your list to 10,000 names and TCats would still be right. Almost anyone could do a better job. He didn't say that NO ONE could do better.
To take it farther, even those you named COULD do better. They just probably wouldn't, and don't. But please don't contribute to the laughable "my guy is bad, but others are worse." The "but" makes not a damned bit of difference. Our guy is bad.
Almost anyone could do worse also, but almost no one with a reasonable IQ, an informed sense of the principles of the founding of the U.S., any philosophy at all, and reasonable integrity would do worse. Bush is definitely lacking in at least one of these (philosophy) and I suspect more than that.
But just keep defending him. There will never be another Republican president elected if we can't even face up to the problem. And Bush has made sure there won't be another conservative elected--we haven't had one since January, 1989, but conservatives still get the blame--in my or my children's lifetime.
Look, Bush was my fifth choice for President in 2000. I didn’t decide to vote for him until September. I have not said a word in support of him on this thread. A lack of proportion in judgement makes those who lack it lose the chance to be taken seriously.
Frankly, I am tired of even answering some of these ideologues (Although I have difficulty determining exactly what ideology they adhere to). That is why I didn't join in a pointless argument.
Unfortunately, all of the empirical evidence of the disaster Bush and most of his Associates are does not register and instead provokes insults and invitations to “Return to DU, Troll” type comments.
Pretty pathetic and indicative of the situation you mention - Until these failures are acknowledged and principle are reintroduced to the Republican Party there will never be another ‘Conservative’ in the White House, at least not for a very, very long time and then only as a reaction to a serious crisis.
Fair enough. You think it was over the top, which is reasonable and should have been commented on, if you think that. I just disagree in this case.
I am very happy the megalomaniac narcissist has divided his base support, has proven beyond a doubt the myths of the Chicago Machine can own America, and has increased morale upon his opposition.
TCats has been sent to his room, i.e. DU, although he refused to go. I, and others, have been pilloried with, "a vote for [anyone other than McCain] (or Bush in 2004) is a vote for Obama (or Kerry)." Some people on this forum actually think this way--after all one-half of people, by definition, have I.Q.'s less than 100.
And some people will defend Bush and say that he was a good president. Those who ignore the disaster and say that may be infiltrators from DU.
What better way to help destroy conservatism than to declare Bush a conservative against all reason; to allow the blame for the manifestly apparent debacle to fall to a "conservative"; and then pose as a "conservative" and praise him? Or support John McCain?
Not all, or even most, of the people here do that--I'm thinking of people like Sean Hannity and his Kool-Aid drinkers (see I.Q. discussion above). But I'm convinced a sizeable portion of people and commentators do that. Bill Kristol is a prime example.
To call the President a conservative is to remove all meaning from the term.
