That’s because things were much worse that anyone realized, and Bush was much better than anyone realized. (/sarc)

Comments at the site reflect the numbers too. One Lib “Regina” is getting beat about the head for her parroting the left’s lies.

Sometimes people believe the Big Lie, sometimes 93% are onto the fact that it is a LIE if almost everything that you say is false.

A Republican once said,
“You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the
people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.”

So they had a filibuster proof super majority for two years, passed everything they wanted to, and somehow it’s the fault of some “small fringe group?”

Riiiiight, because W was a model of fiscal restraint and small government. We have to remember that as much blame falls on the GOP as the Dems. We have to keep both parties honest, and not fall for the pack of lies that they are all going to be spouting to get elected.

“You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.”

And RATs have trying to prove that wrong since those words were uttered.
