Glitch, Joe, and other Obama sac riders. Now I was not a huge Bush supporter, as he did things I did not like as well. Seeing as how you guys are the supreme word on what is factual evidance and bias opinion, tell me in detail how exactly Bush destroyed this country. I want facts. Not just bias oppinions. Since that is what you guys go by is hard evidance and facts. Show me what Bush did that directly influanced the fallout of our economy. And dont give me this “he made us look bad” bullshit. I mean things that can be proven without a doubt that Bush was responsible and not just the easiest to blame. Keep in mind that when Bush took over from Clinton the economy was in a freefall for about a year before Bush even took office. Then there was 9/11, and the housing market crash. So please. enlighten me on what he did exactly that doomed us all.
Well spending our giant budget surplus, and then a lot more, on tax cuts for the rich and Iraq, which unless you’re a multi-millionaire or work for halliburton you likely got nothing for, certainly didn’t help things…
Here’s the tip of the iceberg:
Follow the timeline below to see some of the ‘lowlights’ of the Bush administration’s environmental actions between 2001 and 2008 – dismantling safeguards, ignoring climate concerns, marginalizing sound science and catering to industries that endangered Americans’ health and natural heritage.

He is trying to control way too much that is out of the federal government’s power.
We are the United STATES of America. The federal government has become far too powerful in influencing everything we do and negating the responsibility from state governments. The state governments are what are supposed to rule the individual states. The federal government is there to ensure our country is protected, provide infrastructure, and ensure that state governments don’t step out of line. Those are the major responsibilities of the federal government. everything else is up the state. -
He has no respect for this country.
His conduct as president is appalling. Never before have we had a president that is so unfamiliar with the customs and traditions that go along with the position of being president. He is the figurehead of the most powerful nation on this planet. He should conduct himself as such. -
His expanse of government.
When in history has more government intervention ever shown to be a good thing in the long run without turning into some form of socialist regime, dictatorship, or just turn everything into a cluster? He has appointed so many extra positions, monitoring everything we do. How is this not some form of control? -
His careless spending habits.
We are further in debt from 1 year of Bush than we were in the entire HISTORY of our country collectively. Just remember one thing. The government DOES NOT HAVE ANY MONEY!! The money they “have” is money taken from you and I. Know what a government surplus is? Over taxation. Also, these bailouts are a crock of shit. They wouldn’t even have been needed had the government stayed out of the private sector like they should have. How much of the trillions of dollars went to where it was supposed to go, based on what was voted? Why do companies like Haliburton get billions of dollars? Why do all these different companies who weren’t in need of a bailout given billions of dollars that we all must pay for? -
The man is spineless.
He has no core values or beliefs. He is only concerned with 2 things. his personal agenda, and what the polls say (to an extent). Guess what. The majority of Americans DID NOT WANT a war in Iraq. And instead of coming up with some form of plan to fix the already broken foreign relations, he pushed his own agenda and created an entire new clusterfuck of future problems we can’t afford. Fix the fucking problems we already have before adding new ones. He is putting new shiny tires and calipers on a car that has leaking brake lines.
Bring on the drama and hate
surplus? Oh you mean the unpaid bills that Clinton left behind? Or the overtaxation by clinton? The government has NO money. Anything they have is from taxes. So a surplus is overtaxation. A surplus by the government put simply, means that they did not spend the money that they said they would need for funding that they had aquired by taxing us citizens.
Oh, so we’re only in debt now because Obama is undertaxing us. Er, I thought lower taxes was a republican thing. Fuck now I’m just confused. But, if government shouldn’t have a surplus then their programs should always have zero profit, but then I always hear people bitching about government programs being “broke.” But if they’re supposed to be broke. Oh fuck I’m just going to go shoot something. Fucking socialists.
no silly, lower taxes is a Muslim thing
lol @ jeg complaining that the democrats didn’t spend enough 
ugh. whatever. I’m done. Trying to make any sort of point with you people is like talking to a child. You can’t see passed anything that mommy and daddy haven’t told you (or in your cases what the media has told you), and any opposition to such is met with “well your a stupid face so there”. Nothing but sarcasm and childish antics. Sigh…It would be so nice to actually have a conversation or a debate with out such closed minded condescending elitist bs remarks. But such is to be expected.
You still have yet to fortify your statements with facts rather than personal dislike/opinion for Obama. It seems like you asked for facts regarding the Bush administration and you got them, including a time line. You’re getting sarcasm and “childish antics?” as responses now because you’re just spewing personal opinion as “fact”, and now you’re down to being an elitist (as in stating everyone in here is talking like a child).
If you want to be taken seriously, instead of saying “ugh i’m done” when you won’t provide the requested proof, actually provide the proof to support your statements. Between your mass spelling errors, insulting reprisals, and opinion-based “facts”, you haven’t really produced any valuable information.
