Talking Bush/Clinton Dynasty vs McBush

First, Team Obama told us there was the Bush/Clinton Dynasty to fear---before being told we needed to honor and respect part of that dynasty in order to validate Obama. Now we have a potential McCain Presidency being portrayed as 4 more years of Bush.

Question: IS Obama full of shit all the time or only when his mouth is closed? How could Clinton have been such a horrible person (a Bushie-like neocon) and then become part of the holy trinity of the DNC during the convention in Denver?

Now we must fear McCain because? Seriously folks, what is there to fear? What exactly would a President McCain be able to do on it's own with both houses of congress controlled by the Dems? Didn't we learn anything during the 8 great years of Clinton prosperity? Or better yet, didn't we learn anything from a few years of one party rule?

A divided government, politically is to the people's benefit. Plus, who has a record of achievements for bipartisanship with results? McCain vs Obama: who has what Hillary was accused of having---a sense of entitlement (because of the firce urgency of ---"my time is running out")---McCain or Obama?


and is kirk still a class A jerk or has he slipped into irrelevancy?

Exercise his veto options.

the Dems do NOT have a super majority in either house.

A democratic congress and a McCain presidency is not a bad combination.
