whose good fiend Fidel Castro continues to murder innocent Cubans

Hey, Castro is a bastard. But, why the hell do we trade with those tryrant commies in China? The Chinese are far worse than Castro. The Chinese have a dreadful human rights record and yet we trade with them and embargo Cuba. Your Republican buddies who are making fortunes off the trade with the brutal Chinese are making sure that the situation doesn't change. Go figure?

<<The recession began March 2000 on your buddies watch.>>

Factually incorrect.

The first quarter of negative growth was the first quarter of 2001, Bush's first as President. The NBER has determined the last expansion ended in March 2001, on Bush's watch.

<<Also, there would be no WTC>>

Actually the WTC fell on your buddy's watch. (BTW, you might want to bone up a little on your grammar.)

Bush knew that OBL was responsible for the Cole bombing but he did nothing in his first 9 months as President about terrorism. In fact, after a few months as leader of the free world and commander in chief, he took a month long vacation on his ranch. Unfortunately Al Qaeda kept working.

To Bush's credit, he started taking his job a lot more seriously after 9/11.
