...There, fixed it!

The prescription of massive credit and money creation which the Bush Administration is giving us may or may not be successful but one thing is apparent. Gold has risen at the rate of $20.00 per week for 8 weeks or 25% during that period as Bush is fixing the nation’s economy.
Check out my tagline from October 3, 2008 and Freepers laughed:

Circle the wagons around GWB ping
In the spring, Bush and Paulson, et al, were all over the news programs telling us the economy was sound.
The bubble burst just a few months short of them holding it together for the next administration.
Herbert Hoover thanks the Bush administration for elevating his position in history. This $Trillion+plus Bush boondoggle will be remembered as the worse economic crisis in history.
Sorry is for mistakes, accidents. Never make a command decision that you are sorry for at the time you make it. It's the wrong decision.
The sign of a good decision is that a person of good moral standing makes it in a sense of happiness. Even when the decision will have consequences that will be tragic and painful. Not because of that sad consequence, but neither to avoid it. In an understanding that among the choices, here is the one that is right, and doing the right thing unlocks a sense of spiritual joy even in dire situations.
From Vice-President Cheney's remarks on Rush Limbaugh yesterday, and these remarks by the President, together with the actions made to date in re economic issues, one gathers that the Administration is in over its head and floundering, making knee-jerk decisions of monumental consequence on the basis of advice from the amoral, the greedy, and the fearful.
Mr. Bush your oath was to uphold the Constitution, to serve your duty under that grant given by We, The People. When you put the legacy you leave to the next person in your office above that duty to us all, you have gone derelict of that duty. And so you are floundering and you have put us all at great hazard. That will also be your legacy.
Mr. Bush, you have some little time left to correct that, if it can be corrected -- but "Sorry", is defeatist.
I truly believe we are living in a communist controlled country now without the overt evidence....but that is coming as well.
Saying that Bush sacrified free-market principles is like saying I sacrified my standing invitation for a week of hot monkey sex with Angelina Jolie.
“I’ve abandoned free-market principles to save the free-market system.” — George W. Bush, 2008
“We had to destroy the village in order to save it.” — Unknown armed forces spokesman during Vietnam War.
“I am sorry we’re having to do it,” Bush said.
By his actions he leads a once glorious free nation down the path toward communism and he’s sorry? That’s it?
Oh that’s right, he had no choice but to spend billions upon billions with Haliburton “rebuilding Iraq and winning the peace.” Too bad for us he was unable to comprehend what OBL’s stated intentions were...to bring America to it’s knees (financially.) Mission accomplished. No doubt the Haliburton group loves Bush. No doubt the socialists and the commuunists love Bush too. And since we helped OBL drive out the ruskies with money and arms, no doubt the ruskies are laughing their arses off at our financial peril. No doubt OBL has a great sense of self satisfaction having done to us what he did to the ruskies.
Bush managed to destroy in eight short years what this nation spent the last couple hundred years building upon...while our dads moms sons and daughters gave their lives abroad defending to death...freedom Mr. President. The freedoms long fought for and died for, all those freedoms you stole from us in 8 short years.
Well at least it is good to hear Pres Bush is sorry. I certainly feel much better now.
Interesting audio file of Thomas J. DiLorenzo. See if you notice any similarities between the Fascism started by Lincoln and continued to this day by Neo-conservatives.
I have responded to four of these threads... let me give you the short answer... screw Bush.

Using socialism to save socialized capitalism from collapse.
Throw more gas on the fire!
Mr. Bush...
Sheesh.
Somehow, you never learned plain, basic facts. Maybe it's a natural consequence of living such an aloof, priveleged life.
Conservatism is compassion. Trying to ignore and/or deny reality is not.
Capitalism works. Every. Single. Time.
Socialism fails. Every. Single. Time.
You had such potential...
>>>George W. Bush said in an interview Tuesday he was forced to sacrifice free market principles to save the economy from “collapse.”<<<
“If you don’t let us help you, we will kill you.”
Signed,
The Government
He's in effect saying that he believes only socialism (the more accurate term for Bush's so-called "compassionate conservatism") can save our economy. GWB: socialist, globalist, corporate welfarist, and destined for the trash heap of Presidential history.

That line joins a select few in the pantheon of "most stupid things said by a person who should know better...
Right up there with the infamous "... we had to destroy the village in order to save it..."
