Now that we have a Democratic president in the White House, nothing he or Congress does is acceptable. Every move President Obama makes is just "one step closer to Socialism" for these morons.

Nevermind that they blindly followed every lawless, Constitution shredding, illegal, immoral act of the Bush administration without a single peep of protest.

Republican party- behold what you have become- nothing more than a collection of fringe element whack jobs stapling tea bags to their heads.

Now, if you don't mind, the adults have some serious problems to attend to.

Obama and his largely Democratic administration: repairing the faltering economy, creating new jobs, fostering green technology and energy, re-engaging the world and repairing our shattered image abroad.

The Republican Party: bitching about semantics, stapling tea bags to head.

Enjoy your decades of coming obscurity, children.

You relinquish your extensive health plan that is provided to you free of cost, and then go out and try to find adequate health care based upon a salary of $30,000 per year or less.

Try that for a few years, and then you'll have all the information you need to write whatever health care bill you wish.

After all, isn't that what this country is based upon? For decades, Americans have had to sit idly by waiting for the scraps to fall from the table while our legitimate and necessary concerns regarding health care, workers rights and a clean environment were poo-poohed and laughed off by the disconnected elites running our government.

Well, we've had enough. The disastrous Bush administration has taught most Americans how dangerous it is when we have a government who rules and acts with complete indifference to the wishes of the citizenry.

And I for one have been fed up for years. Every single election cycle, politicians of both parties pay weak lip service to "fixing" health care, jobs, immigration and the environment and then go back to business as usual when elected. Well, that's over now. It's past time that politicians of both parties actually do the jobs they were elected to do. It's time for these over-fed, quid pro quo back-scratchers to get off their asses and do their jobs.

"After all, the public does credit George Bush with keeping us safe at (sic) 9/11..."

Actually, a vast majority of us realize that Bush FAILED to keep us safe, thus resulting in the attack on 9-11. How? By completely ignoring intelligence suggesting that bin Laden was "determined to strike within the United States."

All of this "Bush kept us safe" bullshit needs to go away. He did not keep us safe. He screwed up, just as he screwed up everything else he attempted as President. Right wingers like to forget who was at the helm on 9-11, because the reality of Bush's ineptitude is too much for them to bear.

Mind if I rob a bank in order to get some extra cash? Sure, it's illegal, but it would REALLY help out my finances.

Exactly true.

In the Republican mindset Democrats can do no right and Republicans can do no wrong.

The assertion that Bush cannot be blamed because of faulty intelligence skirts the essential problem that exists with his decision to go to war with Iraq- that it was illegal in international law, and based upon choice. This was a pre-emptive war that we chose to fight- we were not attacked by Iraq and we were not about to be.

This is the point that most Conservatives unfortunately fail to grasp. When we act as an aggressor nation, we are undermining our entire history of diplomacy and military action.

Let's not forget- that the ENTIRE REASON we attacked Iraq during the first Gulf War was for doing exactly what we did in 2003- invading a country without provocation. Yet, when we decide to do the same thing Saddam did in 1990, it's okay? I don't buy it.

As for the economy- yes, it grew. But it was based upon derivatives and concepts, not material things like manufacturing. It was a Ponzi scheme cooked up by freewheeling venture capitalists who thought it would be fine and dandy to treat our economy like a Las Vegas casino.

But what most upsets THE MAJORITY OF AMERICANS is that Bush has taken our most cherished tenents- The Constitution and Bill of Rights- and trashed them with reckless abandon. The horror, shame, and utter disgust the majority of Americans feel for the Bush administration stems from this recklessness and lack of accountability to what our nation is founded upon- the rule of law.

We Americans have historically held ourselves to a high standard of conduct in our dealings with the world, and under the Bush administration, we became a gang of mindless, sadistic thugs.

Republicans like to believe that history will vindicate George W. Bush for all of this and much, much more, but this is a fantasy. History will be no kinder in its opinion to Bush than most Americans are today. George W. Bush and his administration deserve derision and disgust for all time. Such things cannot be allowed to happen again in our nation.

Fox's refusal to cover this event is nothing more than blatant politics. They couldn't suck George W. Bush's dick enough while he was in office, and now that there's a Democratic president they do everything in their power to run him down or ignore him completely.

Fuck Fox.

And for all of you out there who love having "options" and would rather watch mindless crap, than information that will directly affect your life- do you think it's better to have a poorly informed populace, or one which is aware of what's going on?

"...our nation's nauseating, wall-to-wall public piety is strictly pro forma. It's a kind of ideological window dressing for a social and economic system based on the ruthless exploitation of human beings and natural resources, which is about as far from the teachings of that radical Jewish carpenter from Nazareth as you can possibly get."
