Dramatically increased our national debt?

Give the rich more money while allowing them to screw the poor?

Deregulation of industries or making them buddy buddy with their regulators. (we only have to look at the gulf to see how well that went, but lets not forget lead in toys, and all of the food problems in recent years)?

Two wars?

Made more of the world hate us (thus giving terrorists more safe havens/larger recruiting bases)?

Allowed virtually all our industry to be shipped overseas, thus making us unable to produce what we consume and more subject to other countries policies?

I'm sure there are positives (like maybe a few rich people get richer) but for most people, the conservatives haven't done squat.

No Obama has not tripled anything in one year. However that is just the type of hyperbole I would expect from someone trying to protect their baby Jesus.

Your problem is that you think 'improving the country' means handing out free sh*t to people who haven't earned it. I think that mentality destroys the country.

What is there to improve, when all other nations envy you?
Why change what isn't broke, only to break it in the end?
Why go to great lengths to be just like everyone else, when they wanted to be like us?
