So - the 'blame game' has two faces.
#1: understanding cause/effect - wanting to find the reason and relation to action to AVOID them in the future.
#2: just to make your opponent look bad so you look good.
I prefer us to encourage #1 - and avoid #2.
You sure as hell can judge the first two years and this country has gone to hell in a handbasket since Hussein Obama became president.........When are you lefties going to realize we don't want a socialist country.............
But you cannot see the eight years of disaster that we had with your "Great and inspired world leader"?
But, again, the President can't write any laws with regards to lobbying reform either. He can only sign a bill that Congress writes. And Congressmen and Senators aren't going to write a bill that limits how much money lobbyists can give them. It's not in their interests to do so.
This is why we need popular initiatives at the federal level.
We haven't been attacked in a major way by terrorists since Obama took office. We are at war. We shouldn't be changing leadership during war. We should stay the course until peacetime.
God bless America.
I think if our politicians stay out of military affairs, we can drop a new President in the White House every four years without harming our missions abroad. That's one hell of a "if" though.

using that logic, we should've ammended the rules and allowed Bush to remain president, since we were in a war. just saying... :shrug:
Why do you hate the constitution?
why do you get butthurt when one of your lib buddies has his/her own words used against them? :shrug:
The smiley face indicates satire. For ****'s sake.
Compare that to almost a trillion by Obama and Bush seems very minimal.

Looks like a few people out there would like a do-over on Obama.
You guys keep coming up with the same numbers that Reagan had at the same point and you think it means something.
I hope they don't think that. That would be stupid. Just saying. . . .
Most countries had unquestioned faith in us since world war II. We no longer can say that.
Actually, I wouldn't want the military to function without civilaian leadership.

This is good! So typical of the broken Liberal thought machine, LOL! Most countries.....say......except for, France, The Soviet Union, Cuba, China, North Korea, North Vietnam, Libya, Venezuela, Columbia, Panama, Grenada, Cambodia, Laos, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, India, Pakistan, Nicaragua, Mexico.............shall we go on and on and on? Yes, we were so well-loved and fully trusted before that tyrant, George W. Bush took over. :2rofll:
Of course we can. Don't be dramatic.
You missed the point. Civilian oversight is a must. This is not the point. There comes a time when civilians should get out of the way. Civilian wannabes have too often proven to have a great ability to extend and stumble through wars.
It is civilian failure that leads us into war. And after they have elected to toss the military into what they screwed up, these same failures announce to the public that they will find a way out. In the mean time, the military they rode into war on, is just trying to win their wars. But our politicians want their undue and unearned credit don't they? So they gum up the works, make the military second guess itself in the middle of combat maneuvers, and seek ways to escape the war instead of win it. A lot of blood in Iraq was because politicians way back in the U.S. of A. decided that they knew better than men who spend their lives at their military craft. Fallujah II, Al Sadr, open borders.....all civilian "leadership."
Just....get....the...hell....out.....of....the.....way.
Well.. that's pure BS, and in fact Democrats in the Senate asked for and got a second vote to authorize the pres to go to war. Our allies, and quasi allies all stated Saddam was a threat and had WMD. The Un stated it. HANS BLIX stated it.The only reason to down a president such as Barack Obama, is out of fear and racism. Bush and his colleagues ruined our country by GOING TO WAR ON LIES.
UPDATE: Promise was squandered. He's at best an economic illiterate, foreign relations joke, and all-around left wing hack.If you can not see that our current president is a promising intellectual...
We realize that, and that's why the electorate is active in stopping him. (See economic illiterate above)....and that he is doing his best to fix the state of the nation
The biggest eye closing were the Journolists during the last election. Blind leading blind., than you are closing your eyes to the truth as you all have been doing for years.
Not really. Look at what he is trying to accomplish. Hence what many expect as a historic midterm election. Dems aren't going to the slaughter house because people see they are trying to ruin the country.To think that Obama is "trying to ruin our country" is a ridiculous slander
2-years in office have proven otherwise.and by no means does any evidence support this.
ROTFLOL... Bush was fortunate (country not) having such an incompetent, ideologue boob following him. Going to war is never an easy decision, and the Dems proved what traitors they are by voting to send troops to war and then sticking a knife in their back; in both instances... their vote to send troops to war, and then backstabbing them was due to... political expediency.For the rest of eternity may president George W. Bush be remembered as the worst president to ever have weaseled his way into office.
