What good has bush done?
« on: May 12, 2008, 03:30:42 PM »
Since the net is filled with the VRWC thread about life and how it was better under the VRWC, the DUmp seems to answer with a How life is worse under *!

What good has bush done for the US?
I asked someone this today. Their reply was how much everyone hates him and how everyone ignores all the good he's done. Still couldn't get specifics on his 'good deeds'.


Hmmm...not a very good start.

deluded. Bush supporters (a dying breed right now) will never acknowledge their mistakes either.


I guess I won't vote for * this election...

7. Then you haven't talked to ME!!!
 It's official, * couldn't possibly have won in either 2000 or 2004 because, according to everyone I talk to, nobody voted for him.


How's those polls going for Obama?

11. There is no good. This administration can be measured by its destructive actions
 They really hate America and are trying to destroy it.

1. They are killing the national economy and industry, resulting in the destruction of the middle class
2. They are squeezing us dry running a costly, endless war that drains every resource we have and those we don't
3. They are killing our national reputation by overtly demonstrating torture overseas and complete disregard for human life at home (as in Katrina)
4. They have put us under the economic control of a foreign (communist) power, China
5. They have let our infrastructure rot, our schools decay
6. They have aided and abetted the "privatization" of public functions, from utilities to the military
7. They have altered the Constitution, overturning the all important right of habeas corpus. They have trampled on the first amendment in regard to political speech, creating "free speech zones;"
8. They have allowed the undercutting of property rights with an expanded eminent domain that allows private land to be seized by the government and turned over to private companies.
9. They have seized control of all public waterways while selling off public lands like national parks. Water will probably be "privatized" in the same way.
10. They have expanded the power of the President to be that of a dictator, who can ignore due process, search warrants and other Constitutional protections. The President can declare you a "terrorist" for any reason he deems fit and lock you up without any legal protections whatsoever.
11. They have expanded wiretapping (eavesdropping is too kind a word; spying is more appropriate) to include the ability to spy on citizens for any reason or no reason.

In short, America is being destroyed by hijackers of its government. The Bush administration IS the wrecking crew.

 
of course, no one can really answer the OP...

...if one DUmmie has committed suicide over his tenure in office, I'd say that's a pretty good accomplishment.  :evillaugh:

Top two accomplishments, he kept Gore and Kerry out of the White House.  :cheersmate:

"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed."

Not a single fact to back up their wild claims! And ironically, on some of those points I agree (horrible public schools, killing the economy) but it's not because of Bush, it's because of Libtardeness.
I can see November 2 from my house!!!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Better yet, What has the Frackin Dems done for us besides sit on their hands and cry like the little bitches they are because they can't have their way. 2008 isn't looking so hot for you clowns either. nacypancy has done such a bang up job and then Dingy Harry and  Jackoff Murtha have done just about everything they can to either pull the rug out from the Military or outright be treasonous in their beahvior which just has to be winning them oh so many friends with the military families too. One just has to wonder just how many seats you assclowns will be keeping this time around.

I thought they were supposed to lower gas prices....when they were about 2.50 a gallon, and get us out of the necessary war. Apparently they're a bunch of incompetent ****s.
