>>>
>>>So can you sum up the things the dems have done to get in the current situation? Do you think that a mere 2 years is enough to draw that conclusion. So what are the awfull things the dems have done above what the GOP has done the last 8 years:
>>>- The war in iraq that started on false grounds.

>>Voted for by both parties - try again.

>The dems were given false info by GOP vote for. They did not have access to the unbiased information.

They had the same info as the others, except a few at the top. They also got intel from other countries like England and Germany.
They don't get a free pass.

>>>- The huge trade deficit (if china stops financing the US trade deficit you're already broke)

>>Democrats policies and not allowing us to drill for oil offshore, caused gas prices to go ballistic. Bush's rescinding the presidential order disallowing drilling has had a positive impact of gas prices. Now the dems need to pass a law to allow it, and watch the price of gas fall.

>As (your hero) Bush said, the US has to do something about its oil addiction. Too bad that was a little too late.

I guess you didn't read my comment on the dems not allowing offhsore drilling.

>>>- The financial crisis
>>That was the neo-robber barrons and the demo party forcing banks to make loans to people who had bad credit. Gee, this is fun. Kinda cathartic, in a way.

>The lack of control on financial laws to prevent this from happening allowed for this situation.

And would you say the dems operated under these same rules with Slick Willie was pres? Yes, they did. As a matter of fact, they forced these laws on the banking institutions. They made the banks give loans to people who couldn't pay the notes, just because most of them were black. It was a predictable outcome. When you make loans to people who don't have the wherewithal to repay the loan, you are a fool, unless it isn't your money anyway, and you know the government will have to fix it.

>>>- The worsening of forreign relations with the rest of the world
>>What rest of the world? Like we care.

>Those remarks really enforce the stereotype over here. So lets china not give you any credit anymore and see the US do the zimbabwe way. Fact is that you need the rest of the world. Without it, you're dead broke within 24 hours.

>>Oh, you mean the plac where the mayor ray noggin head wouldn't help his people leave by using all the buses? Or where the governor was also playing politics (note - she is no longer the governor - they have a REPUBLICAN)

>Yeah that place the GOP was incompetent to give any aid in a timely matter. The dutch even were there quicker than them.

I believe the Africans, and even Bob Geldof have said that president Bush has done more for their counties than any other US president. You need to read more.


>>>- A president with the IQ of a peanut.
>>Yeah, he's so stupid, he just beat the dems for two presidencies! Hahahaa, gimme a break.

>Well, what does it say about americans they elected him twice... hmmm, let me think.... Even bush closest friends have acknowledged that GBW is 'someone with limited intellect'. Com'on this was not any news before he got elected the first time. And it is taking you 8 years of disaster to get the message?

Yeah, like I said, he is so stupid, he just beat the pants off the dems in the last two elections. And what does "limited intellect" mean anyway? Everyone has limited intellect.

>>>- 1% of your population imprisoned.

>>If they didn't commit crimes, they wouldn't be imprisoned. How about we send some of them to your country. I'd volunteer the sex offenders, and from what I've heard, they would be accepted with open . . . arms?

>I've send tracy a link about a book that discusses the causes, but I doubt whether you've got the courage to read it. You live in a violent country that is incomparable with any other western country. Any way you cut it. If you've got 1% of your population imprisoned there is something very wrong in your society. Maybe the american way of living is creating criminals. Or is that too difficult to grasp?
>The US in this respect is best comparable to violent african countries and china and russia. Are you proud to see your country compared to those?

You left off the other five words "I am the epitomy of . . ."
