“There was a Republican house for 6 years.”
You said “congress” I was correcting your attempt to disguise the fact that the Democrats held the Senate for 4 of Bush’s 8 years, that the Dems held the House for 2 of 8 years, and that the Dems held both chambers for the last 2 of 8 years....
Even then, the Majorities that the Republicans had for those years were slim, and given the voting record of people like Snowe, Collins, Spectre, Chaffee, McCain, Graham, et al, I could reasonably say that the power in the Senate, and by extension the entire Congress, rested in the hands of the minority Democrats.
The Dems spent all the Bush years obstructing the Republicans and pushing a far left agenda. Compare that to the overwhelming Majorities that the Dems enjoyed the past 2 years, and how badly they have mismanaged the country because there was no possible check on them by the Republicans in either chamber... yet not a peep out of you.....
The Democrats were ultimately successful in demonizing Bush, a tactic they persued from almost the minute he took office in 2001 ....And people like you that echo the Dem talking points are as much to be shunned as Liberals are in conservative circles.....
“I hope they have something to cure your Bush Worship Syndrome, because it appears to have taken over your entire thought process.”
I don’t worship any man, and instead realize, and accept, that each of us is flawed in some way. The difference between us is that I look for the good in people, recognize it when I see it, and celebrate it. To be as throughly nit-picky and contrary as you, seaching for perfection in a man, any man, must be a cruel burden of unfulfilled proportions. I feel sorry for you.
You probably say I’m a Reagan worshiper when I say that like him, I see a dawning America, with bright sunshine just ahead.... will it rain? Of course it will, that’s how flowers grow tomorrow.....
You just go back to your doom and gloom, and everyone is wrong attitude. Hope you like being alone. Part of being a true Conservative is being realisticaly optomistic about the present and the future.
“Your little story about Bush’s deft appointment of Harriet Miers to make sure that Alito would get confirmed is a very amusing story.”
....and so obviously true to anyone not wearing brown encrusted eyeglasses, such as yourself. Comment about Daddy’s Clarence Thomas appointment? Same tactic by Daddy....Same result....another Conservative on the Court. It is not only the blind that cannot see....there are those that will not see.....
Time to smell the coffee Rove worshiper, your kinda of poop just doesn’t cut it anymore.....I mean afterall, with naysayers like you, who needs enemies?
Oh and BTW, despite what you think, being elected President is in no way like being elected King.
Yeah, so it totally follows that the answer is to advocate for and push through massive government power grabs and new entitlements! How could a conservative not be happy with that?
The Dems spent all the Bush years obstructing the Republicans and pushing a far left agenda.
And you expected something different from them? The only surprise was that the Republican agenda was barely to their right.
Compare that to the overwhelming Majorities that the Dems enjoyed the past 2 years, and how badly they have mismanaged the country because there was no possible check on them by the Republicans in either chamber... yet not a peep out of you.....
Yep, you've got it all figured out. Anyone who isn't happy with what happened during the Bush era absolutely must support the commiecrats in congress now. That's some shovel-ready deep thinking you're doing there.
The Democrats were ultimately successful in demonizing Bush, a tactic they persued from almost the minute he took office in 2001 ....And people like you that echo the Dem talking points are as much to be shunned as Liberals are in conservative circles.....
Yes, those tried and true Dem talking points...Like criticizing him for letting Ted Kennedy write the education bill, excoriating him for signing the blatantly unconstitutional McCain/Feingold, scolding him for ushering through Medicare Part D, and like reminding people of his checkered record on the Harriet Miers incident, and finally his brave attempt to 'save' the free market by abandoning his 'free market principles'.
Sounds like a DNC press release, doesn't it? Yep, you've got it all figured out alright.
Don't stop thinking. If you keep practicing, some day, you just might get it right.
