"the year"?  He's liar of all years.  You know how you can tell he's lying?  His lips are moving.

Oh come on. He's not always lying. When he's not, he's outlining the next way he's going to screw us. :huh:

That's true,  he has to eat so he has to stop long enough to chew.

Actually Husein was quite honest had people been paying attention, he said energy would sky rocket under his plan, that he planned on bankrupting coal, that he would force a Green agenda (codeword for socialism) down our throats.

Sadly, only half the country was smart enough to understand what he was saying.

I'm thinking the other half is slowly waking to the fact that it was actually a night mare, not just a dream.
I still have faith in American exceptionalism and that the majority liked life 10 years ago, as opposed to the path Husein has foist upon us.

I think people have selective memory, that is why Obama keeps blaming bush.  It is no longer about what Bush actually did, it is about creating false memories of just how bad it was.  He is the great campaigner and by creating this anti-Bush(anti-republican) culture, he can make it much more difficult for any pub to get elected.  That is why he still plays the Bush card, he is effectively brainwashing the public into thinking things were worse than they were, and to not go there again.

True, but after 7 years passes, that card will be completely worn out.

Yawn

Romney's not a liar. He could be wrong about some things, but he's not a liar. Not true of "That Guy."  And yes, That Guy told us what he was going to do. The Demonrats knew too, and so did the media.  They all worked hard to sell this inept man to the most inept and least productive of the American population (AKA, the STUPID people)

Romney was right about a lot of things but he couldn't beat the media and an administration promising cradle to grave benefits...

Ok, wait, "creating false memories of just how bad it was"? Lets just run down the list for second, under President Bush, we went from a national surplus of $5.6 trillion, to a deficit of $1,215 billion. September 11th happened, not saying it's his fault, just saying, it happened while he was in charge. We invaded a sovereign nation, under false pretenses, while still fighting another war in Afghanistan, where we never achieved our goal of catching Osama Bin Ladin, during his terms. Both the housing market and wall street collapsed, leading to the most serious economic crisis since the great depression. Also, have to thrown in the patriot act, no child left behind and guantanamo, none of which went well for anyone.

Lets not act like it's all spin, lol. There is a lot of truth in that, but I respect the sentiment of lets move forward. I'm all about moving forward, but not at the expense of forgetting the past.

We had legal right to invade Iraq.

A whole list of things, and you pick one thing? Let alone the one thing that has been shown to have been inaccurate intelligence that misrepresented the facts? We may have had a legal right, but that doesn't make it the right choice in retrospect.
