Jim, you come off as a real Bush apologist, you are the classic "they're all rotten" excuse for Bush. I wonder if you know you are doing it.
It was Bush and republicans that spent 4 trillion, NOT democrats, democrats in new york or Elliot Spitzer. I don't even like Elliot Spitzer. New York is not responsible for this deficit and debt inspired "economic growth".
Bush isn't over as you say, and we aren't going to be able to "move on" since Bush spent us into Hades. We will be paying for Bush for 50 years. they all aren't rotten or at least not as rotten as Bush. And Bush IS a republican to the core so please accept responsibility for that. Had we had even one democratic house in this decade we would be better off if only a little.
Finally, "Drawing people together" is NOT the number one issue for the country in 08. The number one issue is getting this fiscal mess back in check, and it is a doozy. If red state republicans bring up excuses and stupid references to Clintons love life again, I say, F-em.
You will probably be in denial about this for the rest of your life but fortunately, nobody else is fooled.
And if a democratic president and congress took a massive surplus and doled it out to farm state and oil company tax cuts, while at the same time starting wars financed by no bid contracts to lobbyist run defense contractors, and doubled medicare costs with a no bid drug plan written by their lobbyest buddies, I would feel that same way.
Bush is the problem not anybody else, accept it! |
