Well, whatever the amount--Congress will bail it out!

Remember how the liberal media reacted when Bush held hands with the King--which is a Saudi custom?

The question is, which is the bigger joke Obama or the media?

Yes, and including staying in Iraq and giving away the U.S. Treasury away to some of the biggest corporations in the world.

If you are suggesting that- fiscally and militarily- that so far Obama is at least as bad as Bush, then I agree.

I certainly agree Obama is at least as bad as Bush. I am becoming convinced he is actually worse.

In many ways they are equals.

I think one of Bush's biggest problems after democrats won Congress was he became so enthralled with his 'legacy' that he started acting like a liberal spending socialist democrat, to the point that he went along with everything they wanted to do.

The Sherman’s of the world can say TARP is Bush's baby but anyone with a brain in their head sees that for the farce it is. That bill was as much RePO as every other bailout was.

I see Bush as the face and psoter child of the neo-republican party. As he started his presidency, I saw him as the lesser of two evils, like his daddy a liberal. He was the creator of the Farm Bill and No Child Left Behind. Both bill went far beyond the boundries of his and congresses constitutional authority. I about puked when he stood up and called Teddy Kennedy his friend.

For a couple of days after 9/11 he acted like a real president. It only took a week, however, for him to change that view in my mind. I began to loose what little respect I had mustered for the man when he was involved in the televised prayer service which included a muslim iman. I lost more respect when he didn't just come out and hold the whole of the islamic leadership accountible for the anti-American propaganda they allowed and even perpretrated.

I would have found some respect for Bush had he informed the islamic world that their silence showed support for the murder of 3,000 people in New York, most of whom were American Citizens. I would have had more respect for him if he had waded into Afganistan with one goal, kill bin laden and his associates, without regard for collateral damage or who it peed off.

Needless to say, the man went down the hill from there with me. Congress, a republican congress by the way, went into a spending frenzy and not once did Bush ever veto a spending bill.

He then gets it in his head to invade Iraq, when the mission in Afganistan isn't complete. Whether or not he was talked into it or he come up with the idea all on his own, I don't know. What I do know is that he invade a nation that wasn't a threat, with not enough manpower to obtain a victory.

He then pushed the Patriot act. This is a law that is blattenly unconstitutional and worse still a direct insult to every law abiding citizen in this nation. The things it allows for are items that our founders fought so hard against.

Bush was weak and easily manipuated. He was a leftist and only claimed a conservative view when it served his purposes. As I have said, I thought Carter was a joke, but George W. Bush will far out joke Carter.

Fibs. Fibs.

Do a little search and you will see that there was condemnation from many, many muslim groups.

You get on me for painting all christians with the same brush and then turn and do the same to the islamic world.

So cute!

Yes, and I still will.

In Northern Ireland when the catholic and protestent militas fought each other, it was these same Christains who condemned those commiting the violance. When all the abortion clinics were bombed by religious fanatics it was Christains who condemned the violence. It is the christain community that today is condemning the violence in the middle east. While I don't agree with ihis theology, Pope Benedict has certainly made his stance clear that the violence has to stop that muslims, Jews, and Christians need to get along and respect each other. It is the christain community that has come to the plate time and again when needs have arisen.

After 9/11, the word out of the muslim community was little and meaningless. I remember a Sheik from Saudi Arabia came to the US and offered a check to the City of New York and then went on to blame Israel for 9/11. Most of the terrorist were from middle and uppser class families out of Sudia Arabia. It is the leaddership of most of the muslim nations that condone the blaming of the US for their condition. As of today there has been precious little condemnation of those in the muslim community who have condemned the violence.

So, TerryRC my comment stands.

While I don't agree with ihis theology, Pope Benedict has certainly made his stance clear that the violence has to stop that muslims, Jews, and Christians need to get along and respect each other.

Maybe the Pope needs to demand that Muslims and the Jews settle their differences in a Christian manner.

That would be nice. I know you don't believe in doctrine, but it is a Christain doctrine to treat others as you would be treated.

Obama did NOT bow. Someone had put his teleprompter down on the floor.

So, TerryRC my comment stands.

Of course. You never bother to let facts get in your way.

Like I said. If you bother to do the research, you will find that there was ample condemnation from the muslim world.

Don't let some muslim extremists do to you what you imply a few christian extremists have done to me.

How's come Obama didn't bow to the Queen of England?
