How will the Bush years go down? The deficit is at an all-time high, the dollar is at an all-time low. Stocks are plunging, gas is rising, government corruption is rampant. We are a trillion dollars into a war that will never end. Home equity is disappearing. Job creation is at an all-time low. The Communist Chinese and the Saudi's are laughing all the way to the bank. How are we doing?
I think many people will see it as a total success.
BTW it's not Communist Chinese who are laughing, it's the Capitalist Chinese.
worst president ever.

In a country where the average citizen can't rub two words together to complete a thought and hasn't got the intelligence to lick a stamp:
We're screwed.
Worst Congress ever.
You can vote in who you want, it's not getting any better.
It's a very simple thing. The dollar is a fiat currency. That means it's backed by nothing and only worth as much as it's perceived to be worth, which, of course is the country which is backing it.Quote:

Both McCain and Hillary, who have the highest odds of getting elected plan on keeping us there, indefinitely and seem to be abhorrent to the fact I just presented.
So, it's not ending any time soon. If you are concerned about your financial welfare in the next decade, at least, the best odds are to move out of the US.
So long as there is a Bush/Clinton Legacy, like we've had for 20 some odd years, it's gonna remain the same.
Though Democrats & Republicans are all the same to me.
And as for economics.....we've been skrewed since the federal reserve was created, and also when smeggin' Nixon took america off the gold standard.
Damn straight, Felicia. The son of a bitch is a bigger criminal than Nixon and Reagan combined ( no mean feat, btw).Quote:

Let's also not forget that the wealthy of this country were spared any sacrifice in this invasion when the moron -- MORON -- presented them with tax breaks, thus having future generations pay for this war with future deficits. Reagan gave us our present federal debt, and this fucking clown added to it. Meanwhile, here in California schools are cutting classes and teachers are getting layoff notices. Brilliant, huh? ... How anyone can align themselves with the Republicans is beyond me. I mean, wtf ???
As far as this country's governance being of one party with two right wings, there is some truth to it, but I'll bet the moon that neither Gore or Kerry from the Republican Lite party would have ever recklessly taken us to war the way this fuckin' dipshit did. Can anyone fault anyone from that region for hating this country? They have every right to given what this moron did to their country.
