I assure you, strating is quite correct, and if anyone tells you otherwise, they are obviously a part of the infamous anti-me conspiracy.

Look man, I know you are a Bush Hater. You never tried to hide it. Unfortunately, it is NOT Bush's fault. At least not all of it. Like I have been saying for a LONG time, the blame for the crap we are in lies firmly on the heads of the "buying public".
It is SO easy to blame the president. He is "in charge". He is 'responsible". Well, OK. Maybe so but he certainly did not take a gun and hold it to the heads of the MILLIONS of MORONS that signed crappy mortgages for homes the KNEW they could NOT afford!!! Bush NEVER told ANYONE to buy crap on credit that they could NOT afford to pay for with CASH. It all comes down to being financially responsible for YOURSELF. It really amazes me how many Americans did NOT give back that "lousy" stimulus check you mentioned! Hmm.. interesting indeed.
I do not need to defend Bush any longer, as I do not believe he did a great job. But he did not destroy this country as so many "haters" would have us believe. WE did it to OURSELVES. Take a look at the amount of CREDIT BURDEN the average American has, man! Is THAT Bush's fault too????? Please!

WTF is all of you worried about? Take a look at the last 4 or 8 years in this country and tell me, seriously, how any of you can think that more of the same would be better. Give Obama a fucking break and some time, then open your mouths and bitch if he makes it worse and I really dont think that is possible.
Everyone was beating off over bush winning the last time and look at the state we are in today. If he were the CEO of some fortune 500 company, he would have been drummed out years ago and please spare me the "he inherited this mess" B.S.. Even if he did, not much was done about it....OH.....I am sorry, I forgot about my 300 economic stimulus check. Boy that sure saved my ass!!!!!

Obama is a liberal if anything. Calling him a socialist is as ignorant as rightists can get. If a socialist would win the US elections, well then I might even congratulate them. But they did pick the lesser of two evils, thats a start, if nothing else.

I haven't seen a positive step forward yet BSE. The man just got elected. I decided to take a 'wait and see' approach to him before I make any further judgement about the man. And as far as being "bi-partisian"? He's the most liberal member of Congress with the exception of Harry Reid, D-Nevada. Bi-partisian? I think not.
