How 'bout since conservatives never assigned Bush any responsibilities when he was President, so fair's fair, so let's all act like Republicans for the same thing. Now give us all a big smile while you a get a taste of your own medicine, Dr. Oldtex.Actually I think President Bush did an "ok" job. Not great by any stretch of the imagination, unless you compare him to Obama. Against Obama he was a genius (but then anyone would look good compared to Obama....even a peanut farmer). it won't surprise you to learn that i think just the opposite. i think that Obama is sort of an average president- neither good nor bad. but i think that Bush was an abject failure- and that makes Obama look a LOT better. there is a good chance he will get re-elected JUST for that reason. dj: Oh my, take the rose-colored glasses off. There's absolutely no use in even listening to this robot man anymore. Did you hear him rail at the Black Caucus, telling them to take off their slippers and get moving. Moving where? Sounded like a Reverend Wright sermon. The Black unemployment numbers have escalated under him. Yes, he will still get the black vote as I heard a debate yesteday on a panel from a black woman saying they will always vote Democrat to keep their entitlements. So, it's not Obama per se, it's big government. They do NOT like Herman Cain, they call him an Oreo. White on the inside. This is just an example of how nasty it's going to get.

I have posted this before, after the South Carolina debate, But I would love to see a Cain/Obama presidential debate. Yep, however, there would be no contest whatsoever. Cain would chew him up and spit him out. No way could Obama match Cain's economics.

Ummm...I was watching CBS, MSNBC, one of the morning cable shows. I watch them all dj, and condescending doesn't appeal to you. Cain was on there and a liberal lady was saying to him, "Oh, come on, you don't have a chance as getting the nomination". Oops, not too professional. I also watch CNN and all the news stations, not just exclusively Fox. ok?

"U.S. deportations reach record high" www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/con....0100607232.htmlThe Obama administration announced Wednesday that in the past year it has deported a record number of unauthorized immigrants - more than 392,000, about half of whom were convicted criminals. "Officials with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said removals during the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30 included more than 1,000 murderers, nearly 6,000 sex offenders, 45,000 drug offenders and 28,000 drunk drivers. The number fell short of the agency expectation of 400,000 deportations but still surpassed the 2009 total of 389,834, the previous record, according to the Associated Press. " 1. Obama beat Bush in terms of deportation 2. According to you, everyone looks good compared to Obama, so we can easily deduce you think Bush looks good compared to him. 3. You think Bush looks good compared to Obama, ergo you think deportation of illegals is a bad thing. Q.E.D. "Pat Buchanan backs Herman Cain and says the reason blacks are 'brainwashed' is because of the 'liberal plantation'" Read more: www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2043433/Pat-Buchanan-says-reason-blacks-brainwashed-liberal-plantation.html#ixzz1ZTY0KzDTWhat a racist remark. No wonder good ol' boy white Republicans him. "Herman Cain Says Jon Stewart Made Jokes About Him Because He’s Black" www.outsidethebeltway.com/herman-cain-says-jon-stewart-made-jokes-about-him-because-hes-black/"WAHHHHHH!!! Stewart is pickin' on me 'cause I'm black!!!1! " And if the same thing happened with Obama/Fox News, there'd be no end to the howling, but since it's Cain, it's a-ok. Herman Cain is nothing but an angry Uncle Tom who whips out the race card whenever he can. Oh, and his 999 plan is regressive, delusional and morally bankrupt. it makes poor people pay more, while letting capital gains taxes go to zero : why should stocks and bonds shufflers who produce absolutely nothing pay no taxes? How are they going to create any jobs? Similar for inheritance tax. www.harikari.com/politics/herman-cains-999-tax-plan-is-for-the-rich-and-against-the-rest-of-us.html

If Sarah Palin is going to defend republicans running for the republican nomination, she really should know their names.
And there is some truth to Janeane Garofalo's comments:

Janine Garafolo is about as bright as a burned out light bulb, and about as attractive as her glasses. That's not what I was referring to. Dear Janine accused Herman Cain of having Stockholm Syndrome. Come on now, I don't watch Greta and Palin is not the topic on this thread...nice deflection but shows what a superb idiot she is.

Take Herb Cain. Look at why he's doing so well right now. I guess you could say, with all due respect, he’s the flavor of the week," Palin said Tuesday on Fox's "On The Record" with Greta Van Susteren. Cain responded the next morning on CBS' "The Early Show" by acknowledging that he may be the "flavor of the month," but added that voters will find "more to that flavor than meets the eye."
Ummmm, yeah, She clains she's one of his biggest fans, but doesn't know his name. God, I want her to run! It would be hysterical!

However you do ruffling my feathers but I understand as you can't do that with your wife... Sorry, not feeling well today, and I know we're on opposite sides of the fence, and I get that, but I do not ridicule nor call Ron Paul a quirky old man who is way too extremely Conservative for me.<stop now diamonds>. There are a lot of things I don't know and learn on here, but I'm still a common sense person and am too stubborn to be brainwashed by any media force. I lived on my own for 20 years and quite successful, till I moved in with this person and have to think for the both of us... but that's another subject...lol. Now what did you want me to back up, as you know I can't cut and paste articles, just reference the internet mainly Wikipedia.

But I forget it was you who said having one woman running for president was enough. *sniff sniff* I smell hypocrisy. I can't help if the opening act was a comedienne before the video got to Janeane Garifolo. And you are the one who brought her up in the first place!

What's an EE casting call? It was the movie depicting the people on here and making famous pictures of how they should look. You got offended by their picture and put your picuture up hugging a tree. How could you forget, I still have it in my bookmarks. If you like, I can post something on there and you can find yourself.

I never criticized the way Bachman or Palin looked. and Janine is not running for public office. She is a left goofball and I wouldn't say comedian. Enough, please.

Lol! Honey, that's not the definition of "naturalist". You're confused. Reminds me of the time you berated me at length about misspelling the word "emotion", but it was you who never heard of the word "emoticon". You seem to be confused a lot. Maybe you should get that checked out.

How in the hell else would I know you're a hedonist as you put it out there.

I found you on page 5 hugging the tree. You took the title of naturalist hedonist off and put "ME" ha ...ha, really that's your personal business, but I learned that from EE Casting call as self-described, not here, so good-bye.

I always admitted to being a tree-hugger. Always. What in God's name is your point? Yes, I'm, a tree-hugger. Yes, I'm a hedonist. If there's a method to your madness, I'd love to know what it is.
