Heres the truth if it was about oil do you realize that a tyrant like Saddam Hussein could control over half the worlds oil supply and if so do you realize the kind of power he could have I guess you would better start learning arabic buddy. I wish we would stay over there and just kick everyones *** and take over the whole middleeast. Let God sort em out. But everyones complains about the number of people that got killed over there but think about how many died in IRAQ as opposed to WW2 barely even a fraction. The truth is America is becoming to soft because of the damn liberals and we have lost our fight. It disgusts me that my brothers died for Americans nowadays who know more about Brittney Spears's Oscar wardrobe than D-DAY in Normandy or Pearl Harbor.

Bush made mistakes but not Iraq and definately not Afghanistan.

Sorry everyone about my rambling

Thank you for your service

unless you don't consider de-throwning of Saddaam Hussain an accomplishment I don't know how you can say that. His influence in the place that the majority of the world's oil is...... that is scary in itself. He hates the US.... he like Hugo Chavez think that the US should be wasted.... atleast Chavez is not a Muslim Extremist who believes anyone not Muslim is a Infidel and should be killed. Hell, the camakazies from Japan had more pride in death vs a suicide bomber.

Bush will be considered bad economicly yet I feel down the road he will be appreciated when more is shared about what happened in Iraq and the more folks learn about Jihad and energy and peak oil.... and most of all


AMERICA > **all**

and not what the UN thinks =

America = **all**
Honestly dude, I hope your right and everything does work out in the east.

Use common sense. some people are always going to be lower class and no be able to get a mortgage, cause when a new cell phone comes out, they spend the money on that instead of setting their mortgage money aside. If you need to be babysat your entire life,, hey Obama is your man.
Amen! Failed mortgages are what screwed this county, and this was not Bush's doing. He might not have done everything possible to stop it but he did have a lot on his plate. I think it's funny when people call Bush dumb, he is a really smart man with bad speaking skills. Just think what obama would be like without his precious teleprompter....

This is a rather ignorant and childish post IMO (not saying you are, but that's how this reads)

Not counting the irony that it barely conveys any form of thought, intelligence, grammar, or syntax

and IIRC I believe there was a survey that found higher educated and more intelligent people to be the ones who vote democrat (even though I think the whole "if you vote *x* you're smarter" is insanely stupid and immature)

You're dealing with nothing but stereotypes and cliches, absolutism is a tool of ignorance. There are no absolutes and there are always exceptions.

I come from a lower middle class family where my family and I have worked hard for what we have, I love guns, I love hot rods and 4x4s, and I love many other American past times that would lead people to assume I'm a republican. I am also pro choice, hate organized religion, have a college education, and have a "hippy" image that would lead some people to assume I'm a democrat.

No one ever assumes correctly I can think for myself instead of doing what some ******* thinks is best for a "party". Believe it or not, just because I don't like a certain politician or his/her actions doesn't mean I'm automatically a "retard" from the "other side".

That's as far into this political garbage as I wish to dive.

Just because they didn't "find" any WMDs doesn't mean they weren't there and doesn't mean they weren't working on them. Reports indicate they were moved to Syria. Saddam had plenty of time and cooperation to do so.

hey do what you want. if you want to vote for a party that wants to dictate your every doing, say what you can drive and cant. go right ahead. but just stay the F out of South carolina. Idiots vote these people in, then dont like the tax hikes and bs, but keep voting them in. eventually they move somewhere else and do the same thing. their is no cure for being stupid. some are just destined to fail. Obama will fail. Bush will go down as one of the better presidents the US has ever had.

Wrong. His generalizations are accurate.

People that do want government handouts and are less educated do typically vote Democrat/liberal.

People that want to be left alone, less government, want the chance to accomplish on their own without it being handed to them, and the drive to want to be successful typically vote Conservative/formerly Republican.

Like it or not, stereotypes are based in reality. I'm not sure what the point of your post was. "Hey, I could be a democrat or republican. Hey, I'm not a retard. Hey, I mentioned a survey that says 'smart' people vote democrat."

Thanks for quoting the useless survey by the way. I disagree with the premise too. Higher-educated and more intelligent are certainly not inclusive. The assumption that just because someone has higher education does not necessarily prove or mean that he is more intelligent than someone without.

And before you make an assumption, I am working on a degree.

Only because they like the handouts.....

Stupid *** democrats wanted everyone to have a house.......
Everyone to have healthcare
Everyone to have anything that would make you better than 89% of the world while not having to pay for a cent of it.

Those folks in S. Carolina want the government to help them....

My government provides roads (although private roads work better and have less traffic and would cost less if just the folks that used them the most paid the most) and law enforcement....... That is all they should be doing. Regulation is not the main reason for a federal government.
