Well it should be fun over the next year as we get tons of these type of quotes from the Messiah as well.. and the left will dismiss them as just simple mistakes when you give as many speeches as the President does. At least Bush knows how many states are.. but - Thats different I guess when Obama does it.

In case you hadn't noticed, unlike Bush, Obama is quite literate, intelligent and well spoken. If he makes verbal gaffs as bad as Bush, it will be not only suprising but news making.

I notice you didn't say he was a good leader.. Probably because you realize he will be a failure far worse than Bush.

Um, yeah... He's such a bad leader he amassed record money/votes. What a loser! :confused:

A broken clock is more accurate than you so it's good to hear your bolded 'prediction'. And even though you're a hack tool I'm going to help you out... This crystal ball you're using has 3 holes in it and says 'Brusnwick' on the bottom. Take it back to the bowling alley and get a real one! :laugh:

Bush is such a bad leader he amassed record money/votes in 2004, eh? You know who didn't get record money and record votes? Clinton and Gore.

I was talking about record votes/money in the primary but if you want to compare Obama *crushed* GWB's 'records'. As far as Gore, he may have 'lost' to GWB in 2000 but he still got more votes.

You're obviously free to continue playing BushCo apologist, but I don't think any objective, rational observer would find any significant chance that Presidents Gore or Kerry would have anywhere close to as bad as GWB. Sorry, but Bush is in a class by himself when it comes to screwing over the United States, at least in modern history. While I think Kerry in particular was a poor choice, it is only denial or blind partisanship that led people to rationalize he was worse than Bush.

Go back and re-read what I wrote. I didn't say Gore was or would have been worse than Bush. What I said was there is no way to know. You'd have to concoct an entire 8 year long fairy tale and then wish real hard with fingers crossed on both hands that your alternate reality would have actually happened.

Hindsight is clouding your judgement.

Like I said, most of the really bad crap that happened in the Bush Admin happened after his reelection. So in the context of "how did he get elected... twice?!" the answer is Gore was still carrying all the crap left over from the Clinton Admin and Kerry was an elitist boob that the average american couldn't relate to. The Dems ran weak candidates. That's how.

Considering where the nation would be, or more importantly, where we WOULDN'T be, if either of the two alternatives the Dems put out to run against him had won, America was the loser.

We'll never know what would have been if Gore or Kerry had won. We most certainly know what WOULD NOT have been:
  • As of 1/2/09, 4221 American troops are dead, tens of thousands are wounded, scarred and disabled for life and hundereds of thousandes of Iraqis are dead and wounded in your Traitor In Chief's war treasonous war of LIES in Iraq.

    :(
  • The war that should have been fought in Afghanistan, against the REAL enemy that hit us on 9-11, would probably have been won, years ago if our military strength would not have been diverted, squandered and ultimately depleted in Iraq.
  • We would not have squandered trillions of dollars in current and future debt in your Traitor In Chief's war war of LIES.
  • We probably would not be facing the worst financial catastrophy since the Great Depression if your Traitor In Chief and his corrupt gang had not abandoned all oversight and regulation over their corporate Wall Street robber baron contributors.

    Even if you argue that the current downturn was unavoidable, we would have the money wasted on their war of LIES in Iraq to help finance the same recovery effort we now face.
  • We would not have suffered the assault on our Constitutional rights in which your Traitor In Chief and his criminal cabal spied on American citizens and imprisoned them without charges or access to legal counsel.
  • We would not have suffered the international humiliation of having a President directly active in committing torture and other war crimes and crimes against humanity.
  • We would have had a government active in developing and promoting alternative energy sources and reducing pollution and global warming, starting with cooperation in the Kyoto Protocols.
  • We wouldn't have had the total incompetence shown by the Bushwhackos in dealing with domestic emergencies and failing infrastructure, including Hurricane Katrina, failing bridges and far more. We can't know if what would have been accomplished under a Gore or Kerry administration would have been sufficient. We most certainly know it could NOT have been any worse.
George W. Bush is arguably the worst, most destructive, most devisive President in American history. He and his gang should be tried and convicted for murder for each American death in Iraq. They should be tried and convicted for treason for shredding the rights of every American citizen under our once honored, once nobel Constitution. They should be tried and convicted, under both American and international law for committing torture, war crimes and crimes against humanity.

I'd like to know how you can casually "*shrug*" and consider any of that better than "the two alternatives the Dems put out to run against him." :roll:

Why don't you try to stay on topic troll.

My reply was directly responsive to Whoozyerdaddy's post. The real trolls are you and the rest of the Bushwhacko neocon ass lickers who spent eight years lying your fucking asses off and apologizing for your dog shit Traitor In Chief.

Are you proud of the legacy of death, destruction and financial dispair he and his cabal of traitors, murderers, torturers, war criminals, war profiteers and generally corrupt incompetents have left us? :roll:

The bushism are funny but really we've been over them time and time again.

They would be funny if the turd who spoke them wasn't such a vile, criminal POS. But you're right. We have been over them time and again which is another reason you can stop your pathetic pissing and moaning about staying on topic.

Harvey... shut up....

Legacy of death...please..... Dont put the entire economy on bush either..... the dems in congress are just as responsible...

And also..the fact that your a moderator.... I don't think it is appropriate to be posting some of that crap your posting....





One week off for mod callout. You need to examine the rules to see what you can and cannot say say. This one you cannot.

Not really. I just didn't present my thoughts very well. They were really aimed at Kerry. While I personally saw Bush as a poor choice in 2000, I recognize Gore had problems too. Reasonable arguments could be made, and were made, in support of both candidates. There was no way to know if advance how bad Bush would turn out to be. Indeed, had Bush not been handed the 9/11 blank check, there's a good chance his tenure would have been mostly unremarkable.


Like I said, most of the really bad crap that happened in the Bush Admin happened after his reelection. So in the context of "how did he get elected... twice?!" the answer is Gore was still carrying all the crap left over from the Clinton Admin and Kerry was an elitist boob that the average american couldn't relate to.

This I disagree with more. I believe the choice was crystal clear by 2004. I agree Kerry was a weak choice, and I said at the time he was the worst of the Democratic field. Nonetheless, it was obvious by 2004 that Bush was extremely bad for America and needed to be replaced.

Typical elitist attitude. If someone chooses differently than me they must be stupid, ignorant, etc.
Go play. Better yet, L2read. WWYBYWB?

Regretfully, the legacy of death, destruction and financial despair that Bush and his cabal of traitors, murderers, torturers, war criminals, war profiteers and generally corrupt incompetents will live on ...

It will take a decade to clean up the Bush failures - and much longer to pay for it (literally and figuratively) ...

Sorry, you have neither the power nor the authority to make that happen.

That's a pile of shit. Your Traitor In Chief and his criminal gang squandered trillions of dollars, along with thousands of American lives and the very honor of our nation with their illegal war of LIES. They squandered trillions more in dismantling all oversight and regulation of their wealthy Wall Street robber baron contributors.

Regardless of who started the deregulation or when, the Bushwhackos were supposed to be watching out for the best interests of the nation for the last eight years. They're the ones who were in charge when things started to turn down, and all they did was fuel the fire while sitting on their thumbs and twirling.

And also..the fact that your a moderator.... I don't think it is appropriate to be posting some of that crap your posting....

I'm allowed to post as any other member. The only limitation on me as a moderator is that, except under exigent circumstances, I'm not supposed to moderate in a thread where I am already posting.

Do you see me moderating in this thread? :confused:

Didn't think so. :p

:cookie:

And don't worry. I'll still be around, and I'll still use them. I intend to continue posting that the entire Bushwhacko administration should be tried and convicted for their crimes of treason, murder, torture, war crimes, war profiteering and general corruption and incompetence.

Those "macros" contain too much factual info and too many good links, already formatted for posting the forums. Why would I waste that much work? :cool:
