They go hand and hand in this case. Iraq was done so we didn't really catch Bin Laden and find out what really happened to the WTC.
JFK screwed up in Vietnam and made it worse. LBJ escalated Vietnam and that made it even worse. Truman killed women and children with no regard for morality at all. They are considered collateral damage I take it.
Bush did Iraq. That is the worst. Iraq was the downfall of the rest. Here he is trying to catch Bin Laden and he attacks Iraq because of WMD's. Did it cross his empty ****ing mind that Korea had WMD's. Bush was a complete and utter failure and history will make him worse even than I think he is.
I don't know that we had a president in my lifetime that I think was really all that great.
Obama it is to early to tell.
Bush well you know what I think.
Clinton was good.
Eisenhower was another place holder he had good immigration things but he started the Vietnam ball rolling. Truman will never be anything more than a mass murderer in my eyes.
Many presidents had great moments. They had that one thing that could make them stand out. most tough just hold the reigns while congress really screws us
I had a feeling you couldn't spell.
After you ma'am.
Hmm.....
Yes, the Rational person was my Harvard Economics Professor. Oh, and my Harvard Math Ph.D Grad professor 2 years ago.
But you wouldn't know anything about that would you? It's just like Nixon, you can't win, so you resort to having to attack me personally. :lol: Keep going, the level of ignorance is funny.
Ok fair points, but which President hasnt made these kind of decisions?Which nation?
So Iraq is worse tehn Vietnam I take it?
So you are basically saying you think the System is bad. So what would you suggest we do in terms of Goverment?
So killing civilians is only bad for certain people?
Well then I take it you dont support the representative Republic as I assumed, but what is your solution?
W will go down in the history books as the man who started the fall. Iraq is where empires go to die and W brought us there.

Started what fall? The fall comes every year, right after summer.
Perhaps you could be more specific, since the American republic died the year the Senate became an elected body.
We'll recover.Bush's presidency was a disaster from which America will never recover. You know exactly what I mean.
We'll recover.
We recovered from Lincoln, we recovered from FDR, we recovered from LBJ, we recovered from Carter....we'll recover from Bush.
Will we recover from Dear Leader? Uncertain, but I am ever hopeful.
Even though Dear Leader echoed McCain's sentiments--after saying we would never recover our economy without his (*ahem*) "stimulus" bill?I think the disaster Bush caused was more than we can handle. I am just glad we did not get John "The Economy is Sound" McCain in office.

Which worked/is working. Unless the EU, something else horrible happens ( like the Republicans get a majority in the Senate) we'll be fine.

Since less than 15% of the so-called "stimulus" money has actually hit the streets, none of the economic events have been significantly influenced thereby.
When the inflation starts hitting the ceiling, that's when you'll know the "stimulus" money has arrived.
Since most of it is due to arrive in the same year that the Messiah is allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire, the net effect is going to be negative.

What does Obama doing Cocaine have have to do with McCain being a scumbag?
Why do they have to be mutually exclusive?
Yeah, they only prevented the collapse of our entire Financial Sector, and 2 of the Big Three.
So, taking money from the richest of the rich,
and giving to the poor creates a vacuum of money?

The US is generally just a machine for making money and building a war machine. We like war. The nation seems to thrive and unite behind war in the early days then it falls on hard times. People become disenchanted by the nature of war and fight against it.
Why not do something to try and avoid it in the beginning. Negotiate with the enemy. No preconditions just talk over coffee and a smoke. Maybe we don't come to the harsh decisions if we do that.
Iraq is worse than Vietnam. Yes. Not because the numbers lost are as high. It was just a very bad decision and based on lies. Vietnam was a **** up pure and simple. Iraq was a designed plan. It was deception at the highest levels. So yes it is far worse. The arrogant Bush in the plane. The statements and the cowboy rhetoric from him.
The system is flawed yes. All systems are flawed. The system does not allow for greatness. It allows for failure. It is designed based on failure. That is why we don't vote a person in for life. We expect he or she will screw it up.
I think we need multiple leaders. One person to see that each department is cared for but just a holder of the reigns. One person in charge of economy. One in charge of foreign affairs. One cannot do it all. It has grown to big for the one.
I am a socialist and that is the type of government I would like to see in place. One of the people by the people for the people with instant recall for a bad job. A system where if you say the you are going to do something in the campaign and it is not done you are gone. That is the system.
I believe in can come through America falling. I don't believe that it can be pushed. In my lifetime will I see what I want no. I just hope that the flawed system that breeds low goals and crushed dreams holds together long enough to do something else.

Hyperinflation is what we need, for a few weeks.
So, taking money from the richest of the rich, and giving to the poor creates a vacuum of money?
Inflation is never good. Inflation makes the value of the dollar go down. We want it to go up.
Do you want America to gets its jobs back from China, Nicaragua, Guatemale, etc.? If you do, then inflation is what we need. And it should happen before China becomes self-sustaining economcy wise
