Seriously these fucktards don't understand that he's bankrupted the country, let a city nearly die, started a needless war that has killed and injured more people than on 9-11, made us less powerful in the world, made us less safe by using up our military resources, sold us out to the Chinese, allowed Russia to make a comeback....oh yeah and destroyed the GOP.

Well we found the 20% that likes him.

[Skittles]

1. there's nothing bush touched he didn't fuck up

these poor deluded bastards

[jeff30997]

2. Yeah,he's something like...

a reversed King Midas.Everything he touches turns into crap.

[Agent William]

3. I can't believe I just saw that...

they...they, actually are going to miss that son of a bitch. Its breath taking, stunning and frightening all in one! I don't know whether to laugh or cry, just looks like I will have to do both, and hope this said history doesn't repeat itself.

[Downtown Hound]

5. They're beyond hope, there's nothing anyone can do for them

except keep them far away from ever having political power again. They live in a world of complete delusion. The only way they will ever come out of it is if some major life changing event shakes them out of their trance.

[democracy1st]

7. same mental midgets that believed slavery was a good thing!

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

4. I love FR

it is funnier than Tom & Jerry, Wile E. Coyote, and Bugs Bunny combined! They only defy physics.

FreeplePeeple defy everything humanity has learned since the Enlightenment.

6. Let me taste your tears, Freepers!!!

Mmm, your tears are so yummy and sweet!

Oh, the tears of unfathomable sadness! My-yummy!

Mm-yummy, you guys!

(yes, one of my friends insisted today that I sit down and watch the South Park episode Scott Tenorman Must Die...)

[Agent William]

8. Freeper tears sustain me.

Oh yes and flow they will.

:beer: :beer:

[backscatter712]

9. I'd suggest making a special chili for the occasion to feed to the Freepers,

but I think the Secret Service would have words with me about that. Besides, the meat would taste really gamey... :puke:

10. they must read DU a lot

so many of them think that Bush has been bashed mercilessly and endlessly and about the only places where I think that is true are places like DU, and DKos, and Huffpo. Heck, even here we take a lot of time and threads to bash Pelosi and Reid (and Clinton, Edwards, Biden, Richardson, Dodd, and Kucinich during the primary season.)

Although Chris Matthews did turn on the Iraq war sometime in 2005.

[AllentownJake]

12. Its a new Hannity talking point

I've been listening to him for amusement the past 2 weeks...the reason they lost is the media failed to discuss how great Bush is and instead bashed him for 8 years.

[Youphemism]

11. Bush's incompetence saved us. Passing privatized Social Security would have sunk us in this slump...

Imagine right now if people had listened to Bush about that.

In addition to all the havoc he's wrought, if every SS recipient had lost retirement money by putting it into the market, as Bush wanted to, there would be senior citizens out on the street all over the country.

Things are pretty bad now. But Bush darned near destroyed everything for us. In the end it was, ironically, the same ineptitude that got us to this point that kept Bush from driving a stake through the heart of the nation.

Those bozos talking about Bush don't know how close they came.

[AllentownJake]

13. Privitization was never a well recieved idea by the Public

Bush never mentioned it in his 2004 run (actually I think he may have denied it a couple times) and the day after he "won" he had "political capital" to spend and congress turned against him on that one.

[Youphemism]

16. He tried to sneak and muscle it through without that support. It's still on his web page...

If you think he would have let not having public support stop him, you're kidding yourself. He did everything he could to try to slip that one past. Again, it was only his ineptitude that stopped him. He might have gotten away with it if he'd tried this earlier...

Here's an article about how he tried to slip it past. It's followed by an excerpt from his dumbass plan that's still up on his website.

My original point was that if he'd done everything he wanted to, millions of retired folks would be sitting in the park right now, trying to lure pigeons into Shake 'N Bake bags for their dinner.

Bush's Social Security Sleight of Hand

By Allan Sloan
Wednesday, February 8, 2006; Page D02

If you read enough numbers, you never know what you'll find. Take President Bush and private Social Security accounts.

Last year, even though Bush talked endlessly about the supposed joys of private accounts, he never proposed a specific plan to Congress and never put privatization costs in the budget. But this year, with no fanfare whatsoever, Bush stuck a big Social Security privatization plan in the federal budget proposal, which he sent to Congress on Monday.

His plan would let people set up private accounts starting in 2010 and would divert more than $700 billion of Social Security tax revenues to pay for them over the first seven years.

If this comes as a surprise to you, have no fear. You're not alone. Bush didn't pitch private Social Security accounts in his State of the Union message last week.

As we fix Social Security, we must make it a better deal for our younger workers by allowing them to put part of their payroll taxes in personal retirement accounts.

Personal accounts would be entirely voluntary. The money would go into a conservative mix of bond and stock funds that would have the opportunity to earn a higher rate of return than anything the current system could provide.

A young person who earns an average of $35,000 a year over his or her career would have nearly a quarter million dollars saved in his or her own account upon retirement.
That savings would provide a nest egg to supplement that worker’s traditional Social Security check, or to pass on to his or her children.
Best of all, it would replace the empty promises of the current system with real assets of ownership.

17. Maybe right after 9-11 he could of done some trickery

However he was entirely silent on Social Security in 2004. The day after he got re-elected he started talking about it. It was a bipartisan effort that told him no. Democrats on Principle. Republicans because they didn't want to lose their house or senate seats over messing with Social Security.

[Youphemism]

He didn't get told no until 2006, when the Dems got more seats back...

Read the date of that article I posted.

[AllentownJake]

19. He got told no in 2005

The GOP wasn't exactly in love with the idea either. Otherwise it would have happened.

[Youphemism]

20. SCR 83 was *passed* on 3/16/06. You seem to be missing the point...

This is the backdoor attack on Social Security I was talking about. It through the Senate and died in the House. You may be referring to some other legislation.

In any case, I don't really understand you're point, and you're definitely missing mine.

Regardless of his chances for success, if he had his way Bush would have enacted a measure that evaporated Americans' retirement savings when this market crash hit.

It's only the fact that he was impotent to get this legislation passed that kept him from putting a stake through the heart of the economy.

[HughBeaumont]

14. Even more scary than the 20%ers . . .

. . . are the ones who won't miss him because he wasn't conservative ENOUGH.

UNbelievable.

These people should be kicked dead in the ass.

[rainbow4321]

15. OMG..calling getting rid of Saddam "yeah, it was messy, but it happened"

Yeah, killing 4000+ troops and goodness only knows how many civilians is called just a little "messy" in the repuke poster's eyes.
That chimpass "did a lot of stupid stuff" but who "wouldn't with the ridiculous amount of tragedies the guy had to face down"

Yeah, I'd place this person firmly in the 20% approval bunch for chimpass...they would excuse him biting the head off of a kitten on live TV..someHOW, it would be turned into a post with it all being the kitten's fault.




:puke: :grr: :banghead:

[Ganja Ninja]

18. If we could just get George W Bush to jump off a cliff we could rid ourselves

of these infernal lemmings.

[TheKentuckian]

21. Don't count on it. They are happy to now stay in the world

and kick, scream, and dig in to stop any form of progress.

[Rocknrule]

22. They can't stand the thought of having a president smarter than them

[Ozma]

23. I just read the OP's link, poor deluded people who

still think GWB somehow kept them "safe"..............what a fantasy world they live in.

AMAZING that those people can be that dumb and be able to walk and talk and type on a computer !
