You need to understand it wasn't poor people who caused the crash it was rich people. Hell I believe it was done on purposeHe sees the facts through partisan glasses and claims he's above that
More BS! I never claimed that one party or the other caused the recession of 2008, I claimed many factors over decades. The fact neither party wants responsibility doesn't mean I am partisan. The fact you blame on party over the other is partisan.
I ask you right wingers to tell us what role Bush, Delay & Hastert played and all you can come up with is that they want along with Democrats too much. Like I said you are children. Ask you to apologize because you got caught you say sorry but ask you what you are sorry for and you can't verbalize what you did wrong. Because then that would be admitting we are right.
You guys admitted we were right when you didn't nominate Jeb Bush. Trump winning vindicates the American people don't want another Republican in the White House either.
Tell me what deregulations or bills of Tom Delay and Dennis Hastert that Bush signed that you don't like. You know a lot about Freddy Fanny Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter and Barney Frank but do you know anything about the Bush Delay Hastert era? Why not? Was your head buried in the sand those 6 long agonizing years? Do you want to make light that the 2008 recession probably has more to do with what they did than what Carter or Clinton did.
I posted about this earlier, I didn't just blame Carter, Clinton, Bush, Frank, Delay or Hastert. I said it was the federal government doing and not doing things. If you want to blame and point fingers, I can do that all day and it gets nowhere. To me it was a government failing involving both of the sacred partys. Housing costs skyrocketed and most people knew it would end and when it did there was going to be some losers.
Did I say poor people caused the crash? And it was bound to happen, American government, American businesses and American consumers were way into debt and could continue buy and spending, a retraction had to happen.
I'm at peace with what happened in the past. Sure some of what you say is accurate but I can tell you after arguing with Republicans for years, this is just right wing spin and deflection from the fact that Republicans fucked us good from 2000-2008. And you dumb mother fuckers put them back in power again? My how short your memories are. Or maybe you look back at the Bush years fondly. You sure seem to have your nose far up enough the GOP's ass that you probably do look back fondly at how Alberto Gonzales, Heck of a Job Brownie and Chaney ran the government. And how the American people rewarded the GOP obstructionists from 2008 to 2010 midterms by not showing up because they were frustrated at how government doesn't work. Republicans basically turned off any moderates or independents who voted for Obama and Pelosi and Reed on the Hope And Change platform. Ok so I'll admit the Democrats failed. No one to blame but themselves. At minimum they didn't sell the American people on their vision and they didn't use the bully pulpit enough. And of course no one is/was happy with Obamacare. The fucking healthcare giant corporations wrote that god awful law. We should have done single payer. But the rich got to a handful of blue dog democrats and that's all it took to get the ACA. I'll admit, it is horseshit. But it's a start. Now lets see Republicans IMPROVE on it. Or will they just repeal it and do away with medicare and have seniors find affordable coverage on the open market.
Anyways, I'm looking forward to the current Republican party proving me wrong. But if they suck balls and you keep defending it for the next 8 years, I'm going to call you on it. So far there's nothing to say. I don't care about banning muslims or throwing out illegals or abortion or planned parenthood. All I care about is the middle class. Are they better off in 4 years than they are today? Because we are better off today than we were 8 years ago.
Obama ranked 12th best president by historians in new C-SPAN poll
Just weeks after leaving the White House, President Barack Obama ranks as the 12th best U.S. president overall in a new poll of historians conducted by C-SPAN ahead of Presidents Day.
It's the first time Obama was eligible for the Presidential Historians Survey, which asked 91 historians to rank all 43 former presidents across 10 categories. Those include "Pursued Equal Justice for All," in which Obama ranked 3rd, to "Relations with Congress," in which he ranked 39th.
Also notable: George W. Bush bumped up three spots to 33rd since the poll's 2009 edition, while Bill Clinton stayed steady at 15th.
The biggest loser since the 2009 survey is Andrew Jackson, the populist president whose portrait adorns the wall of President Donald Trump's Oval Office. Jackson dropped five spots, from 13th to 18th.
I wonder where Trump will rank?
