What gets me is the fact that Bush got us into this recession and there was some griping. Then Obama won and was sworn in. Then, almost as soon as he takes office, some of the whiners that made up all the bs about him during the election start wondering why he hadn't changed things yet. It took Baby Boy Bush ("Daddy, what do I do next?") 8 years to screw everything up and they expect Obama to fix everything in one year? It will be hard enough in 4 years!

The "Good Ole Boys" have always used tactics such as this. They were counting on tapping into an undercurrent of rage after Obama's win. And their goal was to attempt to sabotage President Obama's every move....but it didn't work.
The Tea Party is the Republican party's rowdy foot soldier squad. They are trying to use these poor, uneducated folks to try to whip up an anti-Obama frenzy....poor things, also didn't work.
Instead of using their energy to improve the lives of Americans, the Republicans are spending their energy trying to plot for President Obama's demise. Sad...they have completely lost their moral compass.
8 years of zero Republican accomplishments during the GWB presidency and the Republicans continue that record of congressional incompetence into the Obama presidency. How do the Republicans in the House sleep at night knowing that they voted against improving the lives of Americans?

You put this much better than I could have and this is exactly how I feel.
What did Bush accomplish?
Nothing. he didn't even get the guy responsible for 9/11 in all those years. He couldn't finish the job in Iraq or Afghanistan. Spent billions upon billions. The only thing he accomplished was claiming Mission Accomplished when it was anything but. Now they expect Obama to just waltz right into the room and fix everything within in a year, with the Republicans trying to sabotage him and even publicly admitting as much.
It's the most ludicrous and obvious bunch of BS ever, and I truly feel bad for the people who fall for it.

I do too. At the end of the day, the people that the Republican party uses to achieve their agenda (if they every achieve anything) are simply pawns who are tossed aside like a $5 hooker.
The Republican party is loyal to the the Uberwealthy, the Almighty Dollar and to the Corporations who provide them the $$$.
Republican policies tend to benefit the top 5% of income earners in our country (who hold over 90% of the nation's wealth) yet they pander to the disgruntled, uneducated and poor "conservatives" to pull the vote (usually with issues that the party really could care less about but are good vote getters like gay marriage or abortion).
Do the Tea Party people actually ever stop and think "Hey, what have the Republicans/Independents really ever done to make my life better?" Can they point to any legislation from 2000-2008 that improved American lives or was maintaining the status quo the order of the day?
Your point being? I don't drink thanks though. He only won because 99% of blacks voted for him just because he was half black people are idiotic. They need to require a literacy test before you are allowed to vote and an I.Q test I am sure most libs here would fail.
Umm.... 95%+ of blacks voted for Kerry. John Kerry lost the election.
