I give him credit for setting the court back years, with dinosaurs like Alito and Scalia. Scalia was not appointed by W.

"I don't think the president has much to do with the economy, good or bad. And as for terror in the homeland- since I have never thought terrorists posed a very big threat to us, I'm not sure how I can give him much credit for protecting us from a threat that was overstated to begin with..." If you think this you are a shmuck. Bush tax policy is what saved our ass from post 9/11 depression. And as far as you not caring about terror even when your own children are involved, is legendary of SI. Every time i think there is hope for you, you post something like the above.

And as for terror in the homeland- since I have never thought terrorists posed a very big threat to us, I'm not sure how I can give him much credit for protecting us from a threat that was overstated to begin with, and which he used as a pretext to invade Iraq. THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT!! I guess we owe Japan an apology. They only killed 2300 at Pearl Harbor; Al Qaeda killed 3000 in the WTC attack. Did you know multiple terrorist plots against the US have been broken up since 911? You must know of some of them; they were right here in CA. I do think he has succeeded in screwing up the Supreme Court- but I find that pretty horrible. I give him credit for setting the court back years, with dinosaurs like Alito and Roberts. I guess he should get credit from conservatives for that, but it makes me want to puke. Uh, I think the Senate gets involved here too. They and the President decide who is fit to serve on the USSC, not you. Edited- corrected for mentioning Scalia when I meant to put Roberts. That's already answered. Apparently you have trouble keeping your facts straight.
