1. Bin Laden still on the loose.. 7 years later.

Economy in shambles due to failed economic policies of the AWOL Bush admin.
Record profits for american oil and power companies.
Unemployment rate continues to rise.
Foreclosure rate continues to rise.
High gas prices causing people to skip vacation, shop at Dollar General and garage sales.


This shit did NOT happen under the last democratic white house.

Republicans should not be allowed to run a damned thing that the taxpayers have to pay for because they are crooks and liars!

2. Constitution, Bill of Right, Rule of Law all in the crapper...

- world opinion at an all time low

- we're broke.

- wages down.

- great depression pt 2

- TSA/DHS/MCA and the unPATRIOTic Act

- airports are now concentration camps, and on and on.

3. We still haven't answered the CENTRAL QUESTION!

Question: Did all the changes we made in our security apparatus (DHS, airport checks, loss of certain rights, eavesdropping, etc) prevent another 9/11 by Al-Qaeda? Or was 9/11 the only arrow in their quiver?
Nothing I have seen or heard has given me a clear answer.

that was the goal

5. Americans have become a mass of homicidal, panic prone, jingo spewing morons. n/t
