Still, though, you can't ignore the humor of a network which used to call the Bush White House for it's daily talking points blaming ol' G.W. for the GOP's loss of identity.
That's really rich, considering that FOX was his chief drum-beater for 8 years.
...But the policies of eight years of the Bush administration -- an expanded federal government, record-breaking deficits, costly wars, and financial crisis -- reversed those gains and left the party’s image once again in shambles. Bush left office with a 22 percent approval rating according to the last CBS/New York Times poll of his presidency.*
In the 2012 primaries none of the candidates for the GOP nomination called themselves “Bush Republicans.” Lots of them attached Ronald Reagan to their candidacy. But not one of them claimed to stand for the Bush administration’s policies...
You must get all of your FOX news information from another source, since if you watched FOX as much as it sounds like, you would realize they are the only network that can be believed. You get your FOX information from the left wing rags. FOX is completely non-bias. you would know that if you really watched it..
But continue on in your ignorance, we read your posts rather than the comic strips...

If Fox is the only network which can be believed, then George Bush IS the problem...for real. Right? After all, Fox said so.
They have ONE commentator on FOX who gets it right, and this man is now scorned by those brainwashed by the daily propaganda put forth by this joke of a journalistic network?
That speaks volumes for the power of discernment of its viewers. It is absent, the years of Bush worship make him a saint to FOX viewers, when in reality he is likely the worst President this country has ever had.
I've been to MENSA meetings as a member. What's your point?
My point is that, just as with the Pavlovian Right, too many of the self-proclaimed "Liberals" in thuis society are too eager to buy into the belief that some centrally-organized conspiracy is out to stifle all dissent (the biggest orgianized resistance to dissent I can see at the present time is the Cult of Political Correctness, BTW).
That sort of "explanation", in turn, plays directly into the hands of the most simplistic of the people on the bottom rungs of the economy -- that some exclusive clique of "duuuuh -- rich Republicans" has stolen all the nation's wealth, and hidden it a vaullt somewhere. (That wealth disapeared when the nation put another Socialist dreamer in the White House -- anyone with any sense is playing "defense" again.)
I'm a pragmatist --- not an ideologue. I understand that both major parties have been tying down certain safety valves for a long time. And I know that some increased degree of public-sector participation, in a very limited number of sectors, is necessary.
But the philosophy of the central core of the Democratic Party (big-city political hacks, the last of the union goons, and a collection of special one-issue demagogues) has no understanding whatsoever of the need for a private sector to support their dreams; nor do they recognize that political / expressive / indivdidual freedom and economic freedom are inseparable -- tamper too much with one, and the desire to suppress the other invariably follows. They are only interested in forging the chains that will keep us all in a place which they want to assign to us.
It doesn't work that way in the real world.

The liberals must be really stupid today... It was written by Juan Williams... you know the previous NPR liberal who was fired by liberals... at least Fox News present a liberal's perspective, can't say the same of other liberal agencies... bunch of idiots...
Don't be a idiot conservative, dems approved the war as well as the GOP, neither side has it's hands clean, both are guilty as charged... both agree on 90% of the policies in America.

Seriously, I think this may well be the truth. Nixon was a criminal, but at least he did some things right. Bush did not seem to have any understanding of the consequences of this actions. Two wars paid for with two tax cuts? What a complete moron. I still cannot for the life of me figure out how he was reelected.

Because GOP voters are complete morons. They don't give a damn about how horrific the person is or how bad they are destroying the country, as long as that (R) is there, that's all that matters.

This time, they don't even care if that (R) is a human being (see: "Is Romney Real?"--Robotics Today).
Just so long as a candidate isn't a black man with a foreign sounding name, he's got their vote.
