Frankly, given the hyper focus on polls, and the amount of time spent online, I'd imagine somebody was deficient in a particular department.

Just a hunch.

Could be, but I really think there are people who are still seething from Obama's win. They may not have a deficiency, but they probably would do themselves a favor by focusing on something else.

Aren't liberals supposed to be the immature emotional ones?

You really need to get over it. Bush is not in the WH, your boy the idiot is.

Remember he promised to bring our troops home? So what happened, did he break yet another promise.

And it was your liberal congress who voted to send them to war, not the President.

Here is a small sampling of the dumocrats who voted to send our troops to war.

Notice some of the names on here, they are your leaders. Some leaders they are.

Baucus (D-MT)
Bayh (D-IN)
Biden (D-DE)
Breaux (D-LA)
Cantwell (D-WA)
Carnahan (D-MO)
Carper (D-DE)
Cleland (D-GA)
Clinton (D-NY)
Daschle (D-SD)
Dodd (D-CT)
Dorgan (D-ND)
Edwards ( D-NC)
Feinstein (D-CA)
Harkin (D-IA)

Hollings (D-SC)
Johnson (D-SD)
Kerry (D-MA)
Kohl (D-WI)
Landrieu (D-LA)
Lincoln (D-AR)
Miller (D-GA)
Nelson (D-FL)
Nelson (D-NE)
Reid (D-NV)
Rockefeller (D-WV)
Schumer (D-NY)
Torricelli (D-NJ)

Thanks to these dems for killing most of our troops after undermining them the entire time. Evne the moron Obama voted to cut needed funds for our troops which hurt them badly.

Now they are in control of congress and the WH and still putting them in harms way.

Wow, 6 years and a trillion dollars. Obama has spent that in 6 months and what did we get? more foreclosures, bankruptcies, repos of cars, 9 million lost jobs, all records! Must I go on?

We have an all volunteer military, each and every member knew what they were getting into when they signed up. Many relisted in case you have not noticed.

Obama has 7 more months for a complete removal of our troops and the clock is ticking on his promise.

Great job Obama, you have now caused the death of almost 200 of our troops when you promised to bring them home. In fact Obamas record last month was the worst in almost a year. What a commander he is.

Are you following this thread?
It was someone from your side who brought up Bush's name.

And ... yes he did tank ... BIG TIME.

The man stood by his convictions, no matter how WRONG they were.

It didn't matter to Bush that the rest of the world was against attacking Iraq.

Bush started this UNNECESSARY war ... and now thousands are dead, and a TRILLION DOLLARS has been wasted.

You are completely delusional.

The Democrats did not MAKE THE DECISION to attack Iraq.

THAT was Bush.

Bush just needed to get Congress to give him permission to attack.

Bush wanted to attack Iraq since DAY ONE of his presidency in 2001. Just ask his Secretary of Treasury - Paul O'Neil, who was present at the cabinet meetings.

Bush then spent the NEXT TWO YEARS looking for reasons to use for selling an Iraq War to the American people.

He even assembled a team specifically for this purpose - to find reasons to justify a war.

And in case you've forgotten already ... Bush SOLD THE WAR to Congress, by having Colin Powell present them with a PACK OF LIES.

Colin Powell has REGRETTED that day ever since. Just do an internet search on Powell, and you will see this for yourself.

Bush CHERRY PICKED his intelligence that he presented to Congress, and he INTENTIONALLY WITHHELD from Congress any CIA intelligence which CONTRADICTED his reasons for going to war.

Bush SHOULD BE IN JAIL right now for witholding this CONTRADICTORY intelligence. It is no different than LYING to Congress.

And there is a HUGE DIFFERENCE on the money Obama is spending right now, as compared to the money BUSH WASTED on the Iraq War.

Obama is using OUR money to FIX OUR OWN ECONOMY.

An economy which was DESTROYED by YOUR PRESIDENT.

In contrast, Bush WASTED A TRILLION OF OUR TAX DOLLARS trying to fix ANOTHER NATION'S problems, which the OTHER NATION brought upon themselves.

And regarding Obama bringing the troops home ... Obama CLEARLY STATED his plan to bring them home by August 2010.

Washington Post - Feb 2009 - Obama Sets Timetable For Iraq

Is it August 2010 yet?

Try working with the ACTUAL FACTS whenever you come here to COMPLAIN about Obama.
