iso rational non-copy and paste replies please
NOT much of a refutation of the facts!
NO president EVER faced the crisises and catastrophes Bush did!
No President ever faced such a hostile, hateful MSM.
What the **** is your point? You act like FDR didn't have a recession and war? Other Presidents did too. The point is that all of them, Bush too buddy, handled is like shit. So bad things happen and the President gets a pass for killing innocent people and waging war for profit? For taking tax money and literally handing it to CEOs lol? For stripping American's of massive amounts of liberty? I could go on, but I won't.
A) FDR depression YES! AND EVERY ONE GIVES CREDIT!
BUT NO where near $5 trillion in losses that the dot.com bust had! NO where that the ensuing years taxpayers reduced by $66 billion what they PAID as what happened to Bush!
YET NO one seems to remember that! YOU remember FDR/Depression and applaud him!! And rightfully so!
BUT Bush?? Do you even KNOW how much distress to the economy the dot.com bust caused???
B) Pearl Harbor YES FDR! NO one forgets that right?
But how many times in this forum except for ME is there any comments about the COST of 9/11? Pearl Harbor.. 2,402 Americans were killed died! 1,282 wounded.
Cost economically NO where near the $2 trillion 9/11 costs!
AND YOU NEVER saw this type of damage at Pearl Harbor!!!
Days the New York Stock Exchange was closed: 6
Point drop in the Dow Jones industrial average when the NYSE reopened: 684.81
Days after 9/11 that the U.S. began bombing Afghanistan: 26
Economic loss to New York in month following the attacks: $105 billion
Estimated cost of cleanup: $600 million
Total FEMA money spent on the emergency: $970 million
Estimated amount donated to 9/11 charities: $1.4 billion
Estimated amount of insurance paid worldwide related to 9/11: $40.2 billion
Estimated amount of money needed to overhaul lower-Manhattan subways: $7.5 billion
Amount of money granted by U.S. government to overhaul lower-Manhattan subways: $4.55 billion
AND NOT ONE of the MSM criticized FDR after Pearl Harbor! NO one accused FDR of LYING about Pearl Harbor in the MSM!!!
BUT BUSH????? "Bush Lied People Died"!!!!!!!!!!!
There was absolutely NO reason to go to war with Germany was there? But we did!
Finally WHERE WERE THE WORST HURRICANE SEASONS during FDR????
The years 2001 to 2008 WERE THE WORST SEASONs in history! FACT!
Of the top 36 hurricanes since 1926 13 occurred from 2001 to 2008.
Of the total of $316 billion in damages these 13 cost 58% of that or $156 billion.
# 1Katrina (LA/MS/AL/SE FL) 2005 3 $81,000,000,000
# 3 through 7 hurricanes occurred from 2001 to 2008!
Costliest U.S. Hurricanes | Weather Underground
a) There were 26 named storms in 2005, surpassing the record of 21 set in 1933
b) Three of the hurricanes in the 2005 season reached Category 5 status, meaning they had wind speeds
greater than 155 mph at some point during the arc of the storm.
but we've never had three," said Steve Kiser, a tropical cyclone program manger at the National Weather Service.
C) DID the worst hurricane SEASONS not hurricanes SEASONS occur? YES what did that cost?
1) $1 trillion in losses meaning $33 billion a year in reduced tax revenues!
2) 400,000 jobs due to Hurricanes Katrina/Rita
AND again... what did FDR ever face of such magnitude??? Drought???? Might consider that... but no where near the lives lost or costs of the above hurricanes!
SO pit FDR against GWB YES! and within 10 years historians will be calling Bush a "GREAT" President... and even greater compared to Obama!
