The American People shall hopefully take care of these tremendous "Pains In The AZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZES" during the next few elections !

Those will be days worth remembering ! Thanks / Lamar

Yes Lamar, i do agree with you as usual. Pain in the AZZZZZZZZZZ ALLRIGHT. People are just so sick and tired, of Obama's TOXIC WASTE BILLS, HE TRYS AND PASEES OFF TO US. And his administration who is full of PLENTY OF TOXIC WASTE MATERIAL!

I can imagine ObaMao playing 3 roles, the cowardly Lyin (no courage to lead), the scarecrow (no brain) and the tin man (no heart) led around by the nose by Dorothy Puglosi and her little dog TotoReid.

Dual role for Puglosi as Dorothy and the Wicked Witch of the West
Dual role for Reid as Toto and the evil monkey.

Ruby slippers... Our Constitution, Declaration Of Independence and the Bill of Rights

Yellow Brick Road... the Founding Fathers of America defining the legitimate and well defined roles of the Federal Government, the States, and the Citizens

Ann Coulter as Glinda the Good Witch of the North
Munchkin Land... America as dreamed of by the Progressives

Flying Monkey minions of Puglosi... the Left

The Great Wizard of Oz of Emerald City... Rush Limbaugh

Emerald City... what America that Ronald Reagan talked of in his "City on the Hill" speech is and should be

The political vitriol just never ends, does it?

Obviously, 2000-2006 saw our nation operating to near perfection!

Let's all wake up and realize that Democrats and Republicans are failing us. The Republicans pushed us to the brink of collapse and just this week we heard them spread lie after lie after lie in the Health Care Summit just to try and win political points. Obama's "iso shot" responses were priceless. I feel sorry for a guy who must realize everyday the burden of being so much smarter than the people he must cajole.

On the other hand, Democrats have proven year after year after year to be absolutely spineless. When they are in power, we've heard them spread lie after lie after lie about the true cost of programs or stand against surges, and then implement them soon after.
The Republicans did that? What about Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Barney Frank and Chris Dodd?

It's been proven that, while wrong, Mae and Mac situations were pretty small in the grand scheme of things. Plus, There were 6 years to correct it with unfettered control and it never happened.

So, yes. My statement remains accurate. Thanks for asking, though.

No, your statement was extremely inaccurate... blaming the economy only on the Republicans.

And Fannie and Freddie were not "pretty small" issues.

I didn't blame it on the Republicans - I said they were in control and refused to interfere in the markets so they are responsible for allowing the collapse of our economy. Many factors - from individuals to Wall Street to Democrats and all the rest created the collapse.

Plus, since you are a self-professed lover of conservative media bias, don't you think you're holding onto this Fannie/Freddie thing because it's all you have that keeps you from having to admit that, when rubber meets the road, your ideology failed to guide our nation well.

You said that "Republicans pushed us to the brink of collapse." Which is very inaccurate.

As if liberal media bias is okay!
You should stop trying to guess what I think and post something which makes sense.
