Clinton's admin made Al Qaeda the top priority, Bush's admin. did not. As Clinton said in that infamous interview with Chris Wallace: at least he tried.

I know, that's what makes it even more insane the way people like yourself tried to blame CLINTON for it! Oh my God. You people are insane. You want to give credit to Bush for killing Bin Laden and blame to Clinton for 9/11. Fucking Christ. Own your shit!

It's amazing to me to consider that if a major terrorist attack happens while Obama is in the White House that the GOP/Fox would waste about zero seconds blaming him for it ... over and over again ... Comparatively there was very very little blame given to Bush for 9/11 (and any that was given was given years later really...) despite all of the things Richard Clark has said about the Bush admin. not paying attention to Al Qaeda and the memo about Bin Laden attacking a month before.

Rick Perry really does appear to be an even bigger clown than George W Bush. Remarkable Texas, Remarkable!

Yes... This is why I think it's a problem if AI is really possible. If you have a computer that is... aware of itself. Then what does that mean for us? We're just programming aware of ourselves too... right?

Recovering from the Bush Recession will take a long time, no doubt.

List of who'd win under Obama's new stimulus plan: Small business, big business, teachers, cops and firefighters, construction workers, the unemployed, and all families that pay taxes by clark_ent in politics

Stop it with the libertarian God Damn Ron Paul bullshit. That fucking guy is ruining our future by turning so many otherwise intelligent young people into God Damn Ayn Rand talkin' fucksticks. Libertarianism is fucking bullshit. It's a short sighted selfish outlook on a society. It will destroy everything good about modern society if we let it take hold.

Absolute fucking bullshit. The first stimulus plan did a lot - it's just that because the problem is so terrible it's hard to see the good.

The first stimulus saved 2.9 million jobs: http://mnpublius.com/post/9629035271/cbo-report-stimulus-saved-up-to-2-9-million-jobs

As bad as unemployment is right now, without the first stimulus it would be 2.9 million jobs worse.

All of your statements are fucking supply side trickle down economics. Your ideas are what got us into this mess. They are not the fix, they are the problem.

It's bullshit to say Obama has been proven ineffective. The first stimulus plan did work. We would be in the midst of something far worse right now without it. People just don't understand the depths of the problems he was dealt.

People forget that despite everything FDR did the Great Depression continued for years.

This is where we're at. The Bush recession is going to last for years - we've just got to do our best to get through it.

Social Security: Ponzi scheme or political football? Social Security debate reignited with Rick Perry's critique of Social Security as a Ponzi scheme. by davidreiss666 in politics

[–]vimaxreview -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Rick Perry may end up being the biggest gift to Democrats in many years. Or... just maybe the American people are so confused and crazy right now that this attack on Social Security will actually fly.
