I find it highly amusing that the Bush bashers on the one hand call him all kinds of nasty names (" ignorant moron Dubya" for example), yet attribute to him the ability to engage in intelligence and deep thinking to plan and carry out highly complex strategy. Give it up, y'all. According to you he was far too simpleminded to do any of that.
Nooooooo.....you have it all wrong. Bush was the idiot and Cheney was the evil genius in the background, plotting with all his evil henchmen at Halliburton.
All that talk about Cheney going into the hospital in early 2001 due to a heart problem...it was all a CIA cover to allow him to plot the 9/11 attacks from an underground bunker. He kept GWB in the dark until the Halliburton crew had the logistics worked out on how they would get the missle setup that was going to be fired at the Pentagon.
One thing that I have learned reading the post replies on this site by Bush supporters is that...you cannot learn common sense. You are either born with it or not and Bush Crime Family supporters were defintely not!
I'm pretty sure it's caused by a recessive gene...
Duby had it... His dad had it... Nixon had it bad...
We disagree with you. Giving tax breaks to the rich doesn't make any sense, they can afford to pay a higher percentage. I'll use an extreme example: Someone making 20 million a year pays 10 million in taxes, he isn't close to starving with the remaining 10 million. But if someone makes 30k, and the government wants 10, what are they supposed to do? The rich will remain rich after we take away their tax breaks the poor will remain poor after we give them tax breaks. But now the country will be a better place for a large majority of the population.
If you take the $10 M away from the $20 M person, that is $10 M he/she won't be able to employ other people with.
This Thursday the Obama administration will announce the first legislative proposal to begin rolling back the Bush Tax Cuts for the rich, and to redistrubute the tax burden more towards the affluent - WHICH IS WHERE IT SHOULD BE!!!
The days of Dubya's evil smirk are over!!!
Obama will once again make the rich pay their fair share, and to reverse the massive distribution of wealth from the middle-class to the rich that occurred during the Bush administration..
This is an accurate analysis. Rush nailed it on yesterday's show (as well as others). He noted that liberalism, while nice sounding, ends up destroying people and making them wards of the state. The end result of liberalism is not that people are helped; it's that they're made dependent on the state. He said 'think of the people in cities dominated by liberal policies and ask yourself if you'd like to join those people.' He referenced Detroit, New Orleans, Philadelphia, Baltimore, etc in previous discussions of this topic.
The US is dominated by Liberal Policies....your right to do X is a "liberal policy"....lol
Wrong Sparky - they are looking at it (considering). Looking is not the same thing as doing -
Now, what is REALLY funny is, this was the plan that McCain proposed - and Obama SLAMMED HIM for it during the campaign
Accordingly - Obama should not even have it on the table.
You evidently need reading and comprehension courses.
