As much I cant stand Obummer thats one of the reasons he got relected as well. He stuck to his guns and kept pounding the right.
So now, GW wasn't as wimpy when dealing with liberals, huh?

That's funny. Especially seeing how all of you claim that W was a liberal himself.

How was W tough on the Liberals BTW?

Not really. You just don't wanna come down hard on W because you not only voted for him twice, but you can't bring yourself to say that his father was more competent less it makes YOU look bad.

The real zombies are the ones who deny that tax cuts help the economy.
Strange. We've just had tax cuts expire, and revenue is going through the roof.

Funny how that works. Same thing happened under Clinton.

Revenue is not going through the roof.

Capital gains tax was cut under Clinton, which helped increase government revenue. The Clinton years also benefited from the Internet boom. Clinton's tax hikes hurt many small businesses (what liberals like to call "the rich").

Default Dubya

Dubya was worst in history. We're still reeling from the stench of his presidency, cursed by the waste products of that era. Boehner, Cantor, Ryan, Bachmann, Trump, Hannity, Limbaugh, Beck, Coulter, Gingrich, Jindal, Christie, Paul, Paul, Romney, Scott, Walker, Brewer, Palin, Perry, Santorum, McConnell, Cheney, Bush, the Koch brothers, and all the underground racists, bigots, klansmen, skinheads, white supremists, tea partiers, neocons, and confederate-hugging regressives who perpetuate ignorance in this society. They could all star in Creature Features.

Dubya represented a significant DOWNGRADE. This element continues to be the biggest shame of this American society, one that drags the country DOWN.

I didn't see anyone of those people with a shaved head, how are they skinheads then?

I think LexusNexus should read about some of the other presidents in history, who have damaged this country to a far greater extent then Bush. Hell, Obama has been doing the same things bush has, patriot act, gitmo, still in Iraq and astan, still bombing people in the ME, I creasing the size of government.

When will people realize modern day democrats and republicans are just two different sides to the same coin.

Do you wingers ever get tired of screaming about "small businesses." It's like you guys think that anyone that goes out and drops 500 bucks to incorporate should be nominated for sainthood.

Small business this, small business that. Bunch of crap. Republicans could care less about small business or small anything for that matter. They're in Washington working for the large scale special interests...like everyone else.

My Uncle owns a small business. He said the tax hikes under Clinton really hurt his business.

How could Republicans "not care" about small businesses when many do own them! But keep right on denying everything.
