"You're a moron. Bush didn't cause the sub-prime mortgage debacle. Democrats did."

Or banks did. Or borrowers did. Republicans did.

The responsibility and the guilt can be distributed almost as many ways as one likes.

It was clear the next president after Bush would have to be so concerned with handling the highly precarious economic and geo-political-military situation that not much else could be attended to. Decisions for the future were made, expressly, at that time.

The interests served by such policies must be evident. If they are not to the reader, then you must consider me 'eccentric'. It is not a question of conspiracy.

Those interests are in no way challenged by the current two contenders of the two-party dictatorship running things. In fact, it is their raison d'être.

The Constitution is very democratically constructed, but the voting public has not used its control of the purse strings as they might have (we could say should have). Every two years, the entire House can be fired!

My bad. I posted:
Chris Cox goes from SEC under Bush to NRA-ILA Executive Director of NRA, NRA endorses Romney/Ryan. What's next if Romney gets elected. Anyone ready for Bush economy II?

Different people. One is Christopher Cox, the other Chris Cox. Coincidence I guess.

So what enthralls you about the coming 20 trillion dollar debt? Dew tell.

A woman asked Romney a question during the debate. She said, basically, that while she was not all that happy with what has gone on with the Obama administration during the past four years, she is nonetheless mindful of the fact that it was eight years of a Republican administration that got Obama into the mess he inherited when he took office in 2008. So, she asked Romney, why should she vote for the same kind of administration now, that is largely responsible for the whole disaster to begin with. How does he (Romney) differentiate himself from George W. Bush? How does she know she isn't voting for more of the same from another Republican administration?

A farmer puts a fox in charge of watching his hen house. After a week or so, the farmer discovers that over half of his chickens are gone. The fox has put on weight and has been seen with chicken feathers on the corners of his mouth. The farmer fires the fox, and installs an electronic monitoring system designed to catch intruders who might be after his chickens. After several months of the electronic alarm system, the farmer is unhappy. He hasn't lost any more chickens, but the number of chickens in his hen house is not increasing to his satisfaction. So he gets rid of the electronic alarm system and re-hires the fox.

I have no intention of re-hiring the fox on November 6th.

hey, george... i don't think they get it. do you think that's intentional?

You good folks can carp all you want about how, in your opinion, Pres. Obama hasn't fixed anything, has made matters worse, etc. First off, I totally disagree with any such opinion. You may not like "Obamacare," but that doesn't mean it isn't a good thing for our country which, of course, it clearly is.

But the mess that the Bush administration made of our economy and our foreign policy cannot be denied. Romney isn't telling me how he would be any different. He isn't telling anyone that. "Trust me." Right . . . .

Nor did he answer that woman in any sort of direct way.

Instead, he does what he always does ... He changed the subject.

The Constitution is very democratically constructed, but the voting public has not used its control of the purse strings as they might have (we could say should have). Every two years, the entire House can be fired!

What I find fascinating is that Mitt's entire "business" experience is basically the same thing that caused the recession - borrow to the hilt so that the company (country) can not repay the loans and then, stand back, watch the collapse (recession) and then "harvest" (Mitt's word for it) the failed company/country.

And now, he wants to bring that expertise to the White House and do it on a national basis.

The result would be the same - the rich would get richer because their taxes would be cut to the minimum and the middle class would become the poor class because we would be supporting the 1%, while the poor class wouldn't even have soup kitchens left because, as we learned last week, piss ant Ryan plans to destroy all that kinda socialist stuff like that there. Nice guy that he is, he just wanted to leave them with doubly cleaned pans.

We get "harvested" and the economy collapses for a good long time.

If you read Mitt's various lies and flip flops, that's exactly his plan.

This opinion is not original with me. More and more people are seeing it though.

We have foxes around our lake house and we see them now and then. I really like those glimpses of the wildlife (We had a doe and her twin fawns this past summer. Just delightful to watch.)

But a neighbor shoots at the foxes because she can't seem to build a fox-proof chicken house. We would be fools to rehire Mitt the egg sucker.

Anyone dumb enough to think that Bush and the GOP got us into the mess is not smart enough to be voting. Please, for the good of the country, your children, grandchildren and descendants, stay home and don't vote.

Its what they've been spoon fed since they could walk.

Boosh did it.

Boosh did it.

No, not entirely. He had some help.

The Current ReaganBush Debt is:
$15,271,916,222,776.50
which means that in a total of 20 years,
these three presidents have led to the creation of
94.23%
of the entire national debt
in only 8.4746% of the 236 years of the existence of the United States of America.
