It's unbelievable that Americans would vote in Bush for another term- It is unbelievable that Obama who is also a non-starter was voted in for a second term. It might be the fact that those who take power lust to hold power at all cost- I just don't think your electoral system is legitimate. The evidence states two things...One that the American electorate are utterly stupid...or two- The electoral system is so complex that it has become a twisted mess that can be manipulated.

I'd have more respect for them if they'd just realize failure, and not run around proclaiming "Its the GOP's fault, for not allowing us to spend too much".

Hell, I think most of us had their mindset, and then we grew up..
Do tell what growing up entails?

Now about that remorse..

Which is why he said you seriously can't fix stupid when people vote two-terms or as you said "100/100" times.

That like saying you would like to be kicked in the balls 100 of 100 times. Sounds profoundly intelligent coming from Michigan.

What, so we can install bigger idiotic Democrats? Why is that so many on the left have to be virtually sodomized before they "get it"? Christ, I hope he slams the whole thing down your throats. Those in the unions continue to believe that bowling on Tuesdays, drinking every weekend, paying next to nothing for healthcare is a birthright. Perhaps NOW you will see that even you are no longer immune to the costs of healthcare.

Drink up.

And now we know why the autoworkers and other nefarious union types sank manufacturing in America.

Wake Up....wait, there are Democrats watching....here.....W A K E U P.......I slowed it down in the hopes that it might sink in...

Hey, a guy can dream, can't he?

not nearly as ironic as needing to ask others what growing up means.

It's some of both. Certainly the votes cast for Obama were the result of mindless fawning over a charmer, an empty suit with pockets full of promises. We can clearly see that now.

The electoral system can be manipulated, and in some areas it is.

Both have unfortunate consequences.

When I'm told something is "free" my first thoughts are, what is the quality or what is the catch. Especially in the case of Obamacare. Anyone with a brain would have known that "free" effects quality of care. Anyone with a brain would have asked what is the catch, how is it going to be paid for.

All liberals heard is "free". No questions asked.

And to grab even more support 400% over poverty were going to get "free" government subsidies.
$90K a year gets a subsidy ?
