Great points, well made...
Fuckin' glad he's not President anymore!
Now all we gotta do is get the DSOBIC now to stop continuing Bush's fascist policies before China calls in its marker (kinda' makes me wonder how Washington handled the Presidency, without a previous one to blame for his fuck-ups)!

Sarah Palin could actually break (some) of these records... I better get my passport renewed and save money to get to New Zealand soon...

Intense Guy is absolutely correct about Palintbrain.

Thanks for the reminder, but not to rain on the parade, it seems the right are the ones who need to be reminded of this cretin's record. Nah. Didn't matter when he was in...wouldn't matter now. Nevermind.

Blueberry said...

Nope. Not missing him yet.

And never will.

Presidents and Congresses only do what their owners - the banks - tell them to do, which is why nothing has changed for the better, and everything continues to stagnate, or get worse.
jadedj, Intense Guy, got it goin' on: Maybe it's time to get the fuck out of here before TSHTF.

Were caused by Dems "Barney Frank & Co." with their dream that every Taco Bell employee in the nation could afford a $ 300,000 home.

At least "Bushy" could kick ass and take names.
