Of course, you guy's are liberals so you must agree. It just has to be those waskaly Republicans that have their heads up their butt's. Never a liberal. I see this thread is now becoming a bash Bush and Republicans. It now goes off book-mark for me. In my opinion, when Slider can walk away from his political bent he might become a credible market analyst.
You see none of the things he said could not have been said of the prior administrations as well. The same words were said about Reagan over 20 years ago. How is that deficits are always so much worse than prior administrations? Because the deficit curve is exponential so it doesn't matter who's in power. The only problem is, the liberal media won't attack a liberal President. The true criminals are the press that propagate it's own lies.
Let's see, some of the lies foisted on us:
There were no WMD's:
The only trouble with that is statement is that last night ABC's nightline ran a special detailing information available about Saddam's plans to attack cities in the US using those very WMD's he didn't have. Did the NY Times, the paper of record, cover this story?...NO. And probably never will. And there is evidence dating back to 2004 that supports that the WMD's that did exist were most likely transported to Syria.
This economy is the worst ever:
Huh? The numbers on employment, income, home ownership (among many others) are better than when Clinton was in office. Oops I almost forgot, it's the liberal media that gets to present it so guess who gets the the bum steer so to speak.
This administration is in concert with Halliburton:
Yes, and so was Clinton's, because Clinton's admin gave no bid contracts to them, AND this was when Cheney actually was running the company.
It's all about oil?
Well maybe, I kind of doubt it. We could have marched into Oman, taken over the country and oil fields and not suffered one casualty. Who would have stopped us? The fact is oil is important to us, and has now become important to China as well. My question would be: What if we ran out during Bush term in office? You wouldn't be upset, right? I guess not since liberals are upset that Bush thirst for oil has driven him into Iraq (liberal opinion not mine). Factoid: Little oil produced from Iraq ever gets to the US, even now. (souce: American Petrolium Institute) Just like if you live in Nevada few oranges in your grocery store come from Florida, most come from California and Mexico, it's bnasic economics.
Deficits are ruining the country:
Well we've run deficits for about 50 years now, I read the same stuff when I was a young student in the '70's and gas prices were going up, gold and silver were also. Perhaps there's more that we just don't understand yet. The deficits as a percentage of GDP are lower now than under Clinton. Were you aware of that? Probably not.
Bush stole the election in Ohio:
Yeah, I know he always seems to know exactly what ONE state will be the critical and go in before hand and rig it. Do you guy's hear yourselves? Oh I forgot Bush is a dummy, what... someone decided that this Yale and Harvard graduate had an IQ of 90. Remember that? Oh by the way, those same electronic voting machines that supposedly stole the election for Bush are getting more and more distribution as they are certified by more and more voting precincts (with Democrats and Republicans that sit on those boards). And finally the software that actually runs those machines are from Microsoft, and Bill Gates is a Democrat.
The Abramoff donations were only to Republicans:
Granted since the Republicans hold the power, there were more involved, however the truth of the matter is that a very large number of Democrats are involved as well.
Bush is illegally performing domestic spying:
Well, that's what the press wants you to believe. However to refer to it as domestic spying is an outright lie. Yes, if you pick up the phone and call a KNOWN terrorist in Iraq, most likely your call will be intercepted. This procedure is well within the Constitutional powers of the President, Democrat or Republican. Quite frankly, I'm for it, how about you? Did you know Clinton used IRS agency for illegal information on US citizens? That was a crime that should have landed him in jail for the rest of his life, talk about a constitutional crises.
This administration leaked Valery Plame's identity:
Well maybe, no one has been indicted for doing so. But unfortunately for the press that has drummed up this non-issue, Valerie was not covert at the time according to records. However, someone from the CIA leaked a national security operation to the NY Times, and the Times printed it, but that person is just considered a whistle-blower. I'm talking about the terrorist spying taking place. An issue that jeopardizes your life, and the lives of your children. Benedict Arnold was hung for such a crime.
The corollary statement: Saddam wasn't trying to buy yellow cake from Nigeria:
Actually it looks like he was but couldn't figure out how to get it shipped without being detected. Joseph Wilson's report seem to indicate agreement. The British intelligence stands by that pronouncement. The Downing Street memo's have been discredited, And Joe Wilson himself has been caught in enough lies to lose all credibility.
The press tells us Cindy Sheehan wants to meet with the President:
She did, however there is never any mention of that when they gush over her. Oops, it's that liberal press that gets to present the "facts".
Ah, and how about those political cartoons...:
Yep people are dying in Europe because Muslims are offended. Are they offended when some Muslims decides to separate a persons head from the rest of their body? Are they offended when 19 of their own decide to fly airplanes into buildings at 500 miles per hour killing 3000 innocent Americans? The press won't print the cartoons, the MS Media will not show the footage of the airliners hitting the world trade centers any longer, ahh but guess what I saw in this mornings papers...yep Abu Gharib pictures, published for the sole purpose of hurting this administration.
I hope someday liberals someday really begin to understand that Bush isn't the enemy and begin to understand what is really at stake. The events in Europe should begin to make people begin to understand if they already don't.

Truth is politicians all have their share scandals, it is the job of the "consumer" to decipher what's right. Of course Clinton was just lying to protect himself...But liberals don't recognize that he lied in a court of law which takes us down a very slippery slope in our democracy. Without the rule of law, we are not much better than a middle East dictatorship.
Thankfully the alternate media is coming of age, otherwise most people would still believe those TANG memo's would be considered "truth", and Dan Rather would still be spreading his political agenda on you. Did you know, Bush has released ALL of his military records publicly, John Kerry never has?
I know you feel you've been lied to, but are you aware of by whom?
Sorry for posting a political post on a investment thread, it appeared to be open game now.
Have a good one guy's. My last post here until this becomes an investment thread again.
