  • Talk about Mccain's mansions he can't remember how many he has. Rev. Manning is an idiot watch his videos. Do NOT attempt to put PHD at the bottom of that. The Republicans want to remove all "Entitlements" that THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FOUGHT FOR. Ever since Reagan they've been trying to FUCK OVER Social Security. 'Oh well if you have carpal tunnell then that's too bad just play the stock market or invest in a 401k. When it crashes oh well." FUCK YOU.

  • All Anyone needs to do is look at who is funding the GOP! How can any middle class person think the bankers and CEO's that are pumping millions in to The GOP lie machine are doing it so you can make a living wage and improve your benefits.

  • Just to let you know, President Barrack Obama saved our country today and the only person who really reported it was John Stewart. He refused to sign a bill that was passed by the Senate which would make it harder to challenge the authority of Foreclosures. Today on Fox news they said that Foreclosures are good for the economy. I'm not making this shit up. Barrack Obama has just prevented millions of Americans from being kicked out of their homes.

  • @jrhd00d84 Just to let you know since this video was made I no longer support the republican or democratic party. that said:

    "President Barrack Obama saved our country today"

    Bush came into office during a recession in 2001. He F-ed up. Over his 8 year period he raised the Fed Debt by $3 trillion in 8 years. Obama has raised it by $3.7 trillion in just under 2 years...Obama has a super majority! His spending programs ARE NOT SAVING ANYTHING! 2008 the Fed collected $T 1.8 trillion in income tax

  • In 2009 and 2010 it is estimated Obama will only bring in $1.3 trillion from income tax revenue. He's bringing in less than Bush and SPENDING MORE pushing us into further debt? That's how he is going to SAVE the country? Please explain? "He refused to sign a bill that was passed by the Senate"??(again, a super majority). What's better than a foreclosed home? PEOPLE staying in homes they CAN'T AFFORD? plz explain?

    Making it easy to OWN/REMAIN in a home you cant afford is what started this mess.

  • @WireWerksTV First of all 25% of the mortgages in this country are more than what the houses are worth. If all these people really could not afford these houses in the first place then how come the prices of these homes were so high?I mean think about it. The rich made it easier to get loans for houses. So basically this caused a fake rise in real estate demand. They created the demand by making it easier to get loans. This rise in demand for real estate made house property cost soar...

  • @jrhd00d84 " They (the rich) created the demand by making it easier to get loans. "

    Who really made it easier? The Fed. Government. Carter 1977 Community Reinvestment Act(CRA), Clinton 1999 Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act which repealed the Glass-Steagall Act. As well as government financed Housing advocacy groups. That my friend is called he Fed. Government

    How did the prices get so high? Easy. When it became easier to get a loans demand went up. When demand rises. Prices rise.

  • If the prices of these homes were reasonable you wouldn't have so many people kicked out of there homes. These banks that gave these loans designed the system so that mortgages would rise and rise until people could not afford it. People who started off paying 700/month were now paying (owing) 3000/month. And at the same time these banks were putting in securities that would bet against these people to be able to pay for their mortgages...

  • @jrhd00d84 the CRA contributed to the financial crisis by encouraging banks to make unsafe loans. In the 1990's home loans increased by 36%. Predatory lending resulted. There was almost no risk since the Federal Government practically TOOK all the risk away. " Yet you...get pushed into thinking that it is the fault of Americans when it is the fault of the banks"... How come YOU didn't buy a subprime mortgage house? After all it would not have been your fault right?

  • These securities were like gambling. If the house was foreclosed the banks would get money off the gamble. So basically the system was designed to get people in a house and then kick them out for profit. The Senate was trying to make it easier to kick people out of their home. Barrack Obama refused to sign it which means these people get to stay...for now. Making it easy to own and remain in a home you can't afford is not what started this mess.

  • @jrhd00d84 People say there as not enough government regulation but when the government makes it easier by offering intensives, tax breaks,and even passes laws for someone to do something stupid...isn't that still "government regulation". If Joe has no limits on how much ice ream he can eat but Bob gets paid every-time he eats a scoop...who is going to get sicker fist?

  • What started this mess was making it easy for banks to get people in homes and then kicking them out for profit. And then the Republicans constantly blame the people. This isn't like a few people problem. This is like 1/3 of the country on the verge of losing their homes. Its like a few people got pushed into these shady deals, its like millions. Yet you and many like you get pushed into thinking that it is the fault of Americans when it is the fault of the banks. Who should be punished?

  • Now going back to the deficit. Do you think that 1 dime has been paid for in the war on terrorism? I mean seriously? Not one dime has been paid for. Now that being said. Who do we owe this money to? You see people don't really think about that question. They say, "Oh my God, where in debt, are children are going to have to pay for this." But who are we in debt to? We are in debt to the Federal Reserve because they create the money to give us money. And who own the Federal Reserve? Banks!...

  • @jrhd00d84 "What started this mess was making it easy for banks to get people in homes and then kicking them out for profit" Kicking them out? Then what was Freddie Mac and Fannie may all about? .

  • These banks which are owned by the Republicans (and that is not a lie) are the ones we owe the money to. The only ones who say that 'we need to pay this back" and "think about the children" are the same people who make money off this system. If we can't pay them back then they don't get paid. The reason why they were against it because they don't want to give America money that they know America won't pay back. Its not the same as the house loans because they wanted people to not pay them back.

  • @jrhd00d84 "But who are we in debt to?" Uh,, half right. because half is owned by the federal reserve. 27% is held by foreign holders. Either way we paid $186 billion in interest in 2009. by 2015 we will be paying over half a trillion every year JUST in interest. So it does matter that Obama, Bush, Clinton, Reagan increased the the public debt during each of their terms. Obama is setting a record. In 1950 we spent $2,700/capita (infl adj). Today it spends over $14,000 per/capita. How come?

  • @WireWerksTV I'll tell you how come. The reason why is because our nation is enslaved by some evil son of a bitches. These rich people have designed a system that helps them get richer and screws the rest of us. The sad truth is that a majority of the senate and house is for the banks. I'm willing to bet that 90% of Republicans and 35% of democrats are secretly against this country. They are in office because they had huge campaign contributions from wealthy people who are un-American.

  • Comment removed

  • @WireWerksTV and this idea that the government spends $14,000 per capita. HAHAHAHA. That is a joke. Ok Ok. Your right it does say that in the books. But I'm willing to bet that in 1950 that a large percentage of that 2700 per capita went to projects that actually helped the average person. Today that 14000 per capita a large percentage of it goes to the rich and very little goes to help the average person. Basically these people are getting rich off the debt of our nation.

  • @jrhd00d84 You're probably right. I'll tell you where the money goes. In 1950 2 % went to Social Security, Health Care. 3.6% went to Welfare. 54% went to Defense

    today. 20 % goes to Social Security, 22% goes to Health Care, 24 % goes to defense. 15% goes to welfare. I'm not Republican but look at the number for Welfare spending increases over the past 60 years. Democrats 128.5% Republicans 520%. Check out my blog. I have a spot there for the veto discussion. and you can type more than 400 words

  • @WireWerksTV and then they go on TV and tell you how America is suffering so much, even though none of these people even know what suffering is, And our taxes are too high. And we are against abortion even though we haven''t really proved that. And they spend billions of dollars to brainwash Americans into thinking that they are Christians and Conservatives (dems and reps) and that the government is bad. You see they really do believe the government is bad...

  • @WireWerksTV because the government is the only thing standing in their way to make even more money and deprive even more people, and take away even more rights, and put our nation into more debt. And until we find some real true Americans that actually care about people and actually care about this nation we are going to fall. Unfortunately the real good ones don't have the words Republican or Democrat next to their names on the ballot.

  • @jrhd00d84 politicalctrlaltdelete (dot) blogspot (dot)  com

  • You got to realize that these people are not Americans. They are no patriots. They care about money and power. They could care less if you dropped dead tomorrow. And they spend billions of dollars to convince you that they are the "all American party" and "the Christian party" and "Conservative party" and the "We are against Abortions but we have no legislation to prove this party." These people are greedy and evil and until people realize this we are just going to continue to fall.

  • I'd still have voted independent, thanks

  • i want some one who sold his soul to the highest bidder right

  • our president didn't bring them home because there still fighting over there and the afghans and iraqies can hold there own yet. would u pay some one to half overhaul the engine of your car?

  • we couldn't just walk out of irque and Afgahanistan could we with out finishing the job we started

  • (sorry I have 3 youtube accounts)

    Ok, what does walking out of Iraq and Afghanistan have to do with the truthfulness of video?

    About "finishing the Job" answer me this question:

    What marked the end of World War II in Europe and the Pacific?

  • OK point taken; but if u invade a country then walk out before the job is done wouldn't that be a waste of time and money well Bush was good at doing that any way

  • Ok, I'm not too sure how this statement fits into your claim that this video contains mostly falsehoods.

    Bush was good at doing what? Wasting money or walking out? Youre not entirely clear here.

    I asked if you could uncover anything inaccurate in the video? So far youre 0 for 1. I would really love to see if you could try to back your claim.

  • the tax rates are bull shit for one thing i made 25k a year at 24 percent tax rate where did u come up with 3 percent jack

  • First advice to you is fire whoever is doing your taxes. Second the video says nothing about "tax rate". It does mention "Tax Earner" which is not the same thing at all. Finding references for "50% of tax Earners" paying only 3% of all income tax is no hard task to locate online. Google it. But since you don't know the difference between income earned, and income rate...I Don't know what more to say..other than..you clearly misunderstood the point...

  • 24% Tax rate means 24% of your income went to Uncle Sam (it should of been 15% but oh well, hope you got a rebate). The bottom 50% Tax earners means 50% of the bottom income earners nation wide pay only 3% of the taxes collected by Uncle.

    Now do you get it???

    Obama brags he will CUT their taxes. My point was is how do you cut 3% down even more? It shows how Obama was attempting to appeal to the ignorant.

    Care to take another fact checking stab at the video or is that all you got?

  • most of what u said wasn't the truth ; time to check ur head i an colon there in the same place

  • I've heard this before and asked asked this question dozens of times for this video and never got a reply to back such a claim.

    Name me one thing that wasn't true in the video, just one.

  • Two great big old tits. LOL

  • O'Reilly question is a strawman. It's not a "war" to win. Its an occupation. Either we continue to occupy or we eventually leave. If winning means that we stay in Iraq indefinitely and there is no opposition at the up until we're gone, then there is no such thing as winning in Iraq.

    That's why O'Reilly is a shitball.

    And retrospectively Obama hasn't changed much...so O'lliely is even more full of shit!

  • 0:27 "Obama! Thats the first place I saw it on two big ol' tits!" Lmao! But he's right, Obama's campaign has been all about hype. He had NO real accomplishments before our nation was dumb enough to vote him into office. Nice going America. What were you thinking?

  • i guess that the majority of the populace did refuse to look at logic and reason this past election..... oh well. i'm in school, engineering school i'll be fine financially. lets watch the Liberal arts majors burn when taxes go up to pay for the outrageous spending that is going on now.

  • I especially enjoyed how you cut out Letterman's answer to O'reilly stupid question.

  • The Question is simple. BTW if you watch the whole interview its the SECOND time he had to ask the question due to the fact Letterman failed to answer it the first time..

    "Do you want the United States to Win in Iraq?"

    The point is NOT does he answer the question. The point is that he HAS TO THINK ABOUT IT!

    HE has to THINK about it.

    That's the point.

    THAT's THE POINT.

  • No, that's not the point. The point is there is no simple answer, for someone who is thoughtful. What do you define as winning? You have to weigh the reasons for invading, the cost of life, the cost of resources, and ultimately decide what you're hoping to achieve in the war.

    Considering the reasons for invasion were fabricated and unfounded (WMDs and false ties to 9/11), and we've suffered thousands of casualties, it is apparent there is no winning.

  • The question is only simple to a simple mind.

  • Of, course Letterman has to think about it. The argument/question is a strawman, therefore its a fallacy. It needs to be understood and countered as a fallacy and not a question. THAT'S THE POINT!

  • technically and based on historical terms the "war" was over and won when the Iraqi Government was overthrown.  It really, and everybody does it, is an after that fact point. The Insurgency in the aftermath was a new enemy and somehow Washington loves calling anything a war. History will record the end of the war in April 2003 but they fought an insurgency the years that followed. I think everyone should stop calling Iraq a war less we do the same for Germeny, Japan and Korea...

  • ...given the fact that we still havent left those countries since day 1 of occupation..... As for the question Orielly asks, it was a simple question...imagine if a US Marine sat there in Bill's place and were to ask the same question...do you think for one moment Letterman would hesitate to answer like he did....and do you think he would say anything but "yes". That's the true test,,,not who is asking it but is your response the same no matter who is asking the question....

  • i dont see how any of your points are valid...

    ok the GDP is growing... wow

    and some pastor doesn't like obama.

    ok. so that makes bush o good president?

  • The title of the Video is Vote Republican, not "Bush is Good"

  • Oh PS.. PLEASE make a third one when the time comes. These are great. <3

  • Obama has got you fooled just like Clinton before him. There is no such thing as "free" healhtcare in America. Universal Healtcare is a false promise given to to the poor to elect the corrupt.

    Obama IS Bush. He's just a lot cooler.

  • Right that is why they share the same political party, ideology, and the same oratory gift.

    Let's ignore that Obama has reversed several of Bush's executive orders, and that he shut down Gitmo bay .

    Otherwise you are right in thinking that they are the same person. *facepalm.

  • "and that he shut down Gitmo bay ."

    Gitmo AKA Guantanamo Bay Naval Base is a major Naval base in Cuba. It currently houses 9500 Marines and Sailors. Despite the media reporting that Guantanamo bay is being "shut down." Obama is NOT nor is planning on shutting down Gitmo at all. When Disneyland got rid of the sky Gondola ride did people go around saying Disneyland is being closed or shut down? *facepalm

  • I was referring to the detention camp that houses the detainees. He has issued that the detainees cases should be open for review and the detention camp there should be shut down within an year.

    *double facepalm =0

    All semantics aside, you have not backed your claims that Obama = bush. I look forward to your reply.

  • Bush increased government spending and made government bigger. Obama wanst to increase government spending and make government bigger. Therefor Obama > Bush.

    Take my test I just sent you.

    Let's see how well you can do there.

  • Government Spending is how you compare presidencies? What about domestic policy and foreign policy? What about results?

    So if two people do similar actions they are automatically the same, by your logic. EX. If a hunters uses a gun to hunt while a mass murderer uses on people, does that mean that a hunter = gunman?

    Performance on an internet quiz is not relevant to this debate.

  • Obama began his campaign saying we will have the troops out of Iraq on a day certain. He has since changed his policy to that of Bush's plan. He said he was going to raise taxes on the "rich". He has since changed his mind on that. He constantly criticized Bush's Defense strategies. So what does he do? Keep Bushs Secretary of Defense.

    We are where we are today because Bush increased spending an made Govt bigger. Obama wants to spend MORE and make govt BIGGER. Guess what?

  • Unless you haven't noticed, Robert Gates was not Bush's original Sec of Defense. Rumsfield was largely responsible for the problems in Iraq, ( war planning, supply issues, strategy, )

    Gates has shown himself to be a far more competent defense secretary.

  • Hey, can you post where you got your statistics in your "about" part of the video please? My room mate would like to see them.

    Go go republicans.

  • I would love to supply the stats you need. Not too sure what you mean in regards to the "about" part of the video though.

    Listen- You will be glad to know that the democrat party is on the verge of self destruction. You saw how ugly the primaries were. That pretty much sums up what the next 2 years will be like. We have elected a man into office who has so many unchecked gray areas that the sandy foundation will not be able to withstand the tides of scrutiny it is about to face.

  • By "about" I meant the "more info" section on the right side of the vido. My bad!

    And fear not, I'm not a democrat in the least. My room mate at college supported him more than McCain though, and she was the one who wanted the sources. (She's one of those people.) Ironically she decided to vote for a third party candidate in the end though, because she didn't even like Obama all that much. :P

  • I should add.. The biggest gripe she had with Bush was his "no child left behind" act.

  • this is a great video i love the why you should vote republican series. now that the election is over you should consider a part3. you should explain the fact that obama cant lower taxes and at the same time spend all the money he plans on spending. you should also explain how if lower the price of health care you,ll be takeing money out of hard working docters pay checks. and the fact that taxing big business owners would be effecting the employeys, or customers. so give it a thought.

  • and now that you should consider how Obama being elected president changed the way the world looks at you overnight.

  • nice video...tough one for some to swallow eh?

  • How long will it be until the foundation of sand that Obama has built for himself shall start to erode?

  • -He once called NAFTA devestating and as of last night says he wil be "figuring to how we can make this work for all people."

    How can this guy be trusted? He has changed his mind so many times and the media gives him a pass. Kerry was a lightweigght flip flopper. Obama is KING FLIP!

    -You remind me a lot of the people in Harlem who are Obama supporters and are completly clueless on what Obama stands for. Search it: Howard Stern, harlem, sal, obama,

    CLUELESS people voting for Obama.

  • I can't believe you are still defending Bush on the Iraq war.

    Why do you think Osama escaped? Why did Bush lie to us when they went into war, what did Bush tell us. He went into war without congress consent, he decides to get serious about it 4 years into the war. And you keep bringing up this other stuff, your boy McCain even says he mismanaged the war, but you keep defending this idiot.

  • "He went into war without congress consent, " I think its a shame that you can make an extraordinary claim about a war and a President and are utterly ignorant of the basic simple facts of the subject. The "Iraq War Resolution" was passed by the United States Congress with a 297 to 133 vote in October 2002 as Public Law No: 107-243, authorizing the Iraq War. Yet you "KNOW" the president is lying but can't seem to understand basic knowledge of the matter.

  • "mismanaged the war" Tell me which war that the US fought that wasn't mismanaged at some point or another?

    If Bush lied how come your democratically led congress isn't impeaching him? The worst crime a sitting president can commit and while the congress has the power to impeach how come they arn't. It's obvious he lied, right?

    Osama escaped because we didn't NUKE the haystack to get the needle.

  • This is the 3rd time I've been kicked out of this channel, this is America huh pal?

    Braden, I wonder if Bush wasn't a republican if you'd still say that crap.

    You're right about the congress voting, but you only blame Dems for this, BOTH parties were dumb asses misled by the Bush administration.

    How many troops died because of this mismanagement. What bush didn't take his words back when he said that 9/11 wasn't connected to Iraq? Patreaus said we aren't safer since our Iraq invasion.

  • "BOTH parties were dumb asses misled by the Bush administration" Read These 3 documents

    -Iraqi Liberation act 1998

    -UN Security Resolution 1441

    -Joint Resolution to Authorize the Use of United States Armed Forces Against Iraq

    Even if not ONE spoonful of WMD was found you ignore the multitude of other compelling evidence and reasons for war with Iraq.

    Count how many times any of these articles connect 9-11 to Iraq. Count them. Plz.

    Why is BUSH not being impeached? I'm 100% for it!

  • Now answer my question. Have you read any of these documents yet:

    -Iraqi Liberation act 1998

    -UN Security Resolution 1441

    -Joint Resolution to Authorize the Use of United States Armed Forces Against Iraq

    and been able to tell me how many times any of these articles connect 9-11 to Iraq?

  • I have read those articles. Now you answer me this, you say we won in Iraq. Did we meet all our bench marks? Because only when we meet all our bench marks is that war a success, so answer me that.

  • You read them but failed to tell me how many times 9-11 was conected to Iraq?

    "only when we meet all our bench marks is that war a success, "

    USA article July, 08

    -The last 3 of 15 remaining unmet benchmarks are:

    1.enacting and implementing laws to disarm militias. (doesn't mean there IS a war)

    2.distribute oil revenues (doesn't mean there IS a war)

    3.fairly enforcing the law (doesn't mean there IS a war)

    Success can be determined in many was but. The War is over. It is over.

    -Obama promised with McCain in Campaign Finance Control and then broke his promise and now has outspent McCain $M600 to $M300

    -Obama last night DROPPED the Tax hike from those making over $250 to those maker over $200K.

    -Obama says companies making over $200k will be taxed but doesnt tell you that companies that get hit with higher taxes end up CUTTTING JOBS and RAISING their PRICES.

  • "Patreaus said we aren't safer since our Iraq invasion. " No he DID NOT. He was asked if the SURGE would make America saffer. said in Sep 2007 "I don't know, actually. I have not sat down and sorted in my own mind."

    HE said "I DON'T KNOW". Its not the generals job to determine wheter WE in America are safer or not. Its his job to Succeed in Iraq. Period. Well the SURGE cut violence down 80%. God bless the Troops. God Damn those that don't.

  • "This is the 3rd time I've been kicked out of this channel, this is America huh pal?"

    This is not America this is Youtube. As long as you follow YouTube Community Guidelines you will NOT be kicked out of my channel which is WireWerksTV even though Im logged in with my other account.

  • Mission accomplished too remember? Bush said that and what happened? Cheney said that invasion of Iraq wasn't worth American lives, and yet what happens? Rumsfeld why did he get fired? Dude are you blind??

  • "Mission Accomplished" The Mission was Accomplished. The Saddam Regime was overthrown. That was the mission. It didn't say, "War Over". Didnt say "lets pack up and go home". In a war you have many many missions. "Mission accomplished" was correct. "Cheney said that invasion of Iraq wasn't worth American lives, and yet what happens" He said going into Baghdad in Desert Storm wasnt worth US lives. Rumsfeld didn't get fired he resigned.

    "dude are you blind?" Dude, can you be correct on anything?

  • Doesn't it bother you at all that you can continue to make incorrect comments and allegations over and over again. I'm being serious. Then you go to the barber shop and rpeat the same incorrect stetments over and over again until everyone else in your circle of friends takes them in as truths.

    -Rumslfed Fired

    -Patraeus says America Not saffer

    -Mission Accomplished (when it was)

    -No consent of Congress for Iraq war

    etc, etc.

    It doesnt bother you at all to be wrong?

  • I'm not lying when I say I've been kicked. I don't go over board any more than you do with your responses.

    How narrow mind are you when you say "Mission was accomplished." You are as narrow minded as Bush. Oh wow he killed Hussein. You can cut the head of the snake but the body keeps moving. So then he says on that air craft carrier that the troops are ready to "come home" and what happens? Do you honestly believe Bush thought the Iraq war was going to last this long?

  • The Mission was to overthrow the Saddam Regime. The Saddam Regime was overthrown. Mission accomplished. I cant say more. "on that air craft carrier that the troops are ready to "come home" No he didn't.

    Do you honestly believe Bush thought the Iraq war was going to last this long? The war in Iraq is over. It is over. Wars are long, and bloody. All of them. This war is no different. Bush never siad how long it would last. Never.

  • Is it just AMAZING that you can be wrong 99.999% of the time and not even care? You said "[Bush] says on that air craft carrier that the troops are ready to "come home"

    But what Bush REALLy said was:

    "The transition from dictatorship to democracy will take time, but it is worth every effort. Our coalition will stay until our work is done and then we will leave and we will leave behind a free Iraq."

    Doesn't it just suck that your whole political stance is based on your own imagnations?

  • What's really amazing is how much republican and George W. Bush ass you are kissing. Doesn't it suck that political stance is on imagination? Dude I'm not the one voting for McCain Palin this election.

  • "ass you are kissing" you have given me Zero reasons to be against Bush. None. Zero. You've been continuously wrong on all of your comments and allegations and then you show amazing astonishment as to WHY I would vote for the Obama who is supported by someone like YOU who has no problem with being consistently wrong on every topic so far mentioned.

    In short- Why would I vote for Obama who seems to have overwhelmingly support from misinformed people such as yourself?

  • 99.999% wrong? Dude you don't even believe that crap.

    You are right about the come home thing, I mean I'm going off what I heard a years back but at least I admit where I'm wrong unlike you, the other stuff I'm not taking back because it's the truth, believe it or not.

    You haven't answer my question either, it's a simple one. Do you really believe George W. Bush thought the Iraq war was going to last this long?

  • I don't know what Bush Thought. If I could read peoples thoughts I would have a TV show called "What am I Thinking".I DO know what Bush said. "The transition from dictatorship to democracy will take time" I believe the War in Iraq was over after the Capture of the Saddam in that spider hole. We still are in Germany and Japan and Korea. When are those wars going to be over? Do you really believe FDR thought WW2 was going to last that long?

    Did the Admin warn us enough of a brutal insurgency? No.

  • Kudos to your video...Great Job.

  • wow, you people at Wirewerks TV have too much time for me/youtube. I have 2 AP classes to study for now, but I'll argue later ;)

  • No Clinton controlled getting the economy into the best shape it's been in for a while; Bush knocked it down with a very avoidable war. Yes I am against Saddam, but he was not the one who caused 9/11, that was Osama/Al Quieda (excuse my speeling) and not all of Afganastan. Bush coined the term war on terrorism but yet to realize you can't win a war against an ideology. It's just impossible.

  • I just told you Clinton left with a BEar Market and a Recesion. Clinton signed a Bill in 1998 clled the Iraqi Liberation Act. Both sides of congress vited for the war. It would be an easy argument to say we went to Iraq bwcuase of 9-11 and WMD only but we didn't. Its all lined out in the 2002 Joint Authorization for war why we went into Iraq. and WMD is a part of the reason. How much was Clinton Admin sending on Operation Northern and Southern Watch?

  • Terrrorism did not start with 9-11. You have Iran hostage stituation of the 70s,You have hijackings of the 80's, massive suicide bombings of the 90's. And nobody did anything. Doing nothing only leads to excalation as it did. The policy of just do nothing doesn't work. The US presense in the Middle east, Mesopatamia, is the best plan to wear down the enemy. It's a stratagy as old as warfare.

  • Homw may years are you going to deny the War in Iraq is over. Has been for years. History has already ben written. History doesn't care about an insurgencey or war for oil theories. 911 was planned under Clinton. 9-11 began under Clinton. 9-11 planners came into the US under Clinton. Clinton cut CIA and FBI funding. Not George Bush, Not Bush. US embassy bomings in Africa took place under Clinton. And what Clinton do?

  • how did Clinton get it shape did he put money it? take taxes off it? how did he do anything to shape it?

  • All I know is Iraq is going to be considered another draw. We got Saddam out of power; and that's good. Essentially we are trying to force Iraq to be a democracy so we can drill for oil. Okay as for someone on here saying Bush's lies and bullshit, not sure if can fully prove that, but as long as Bush is tried for war crimes (like the Numberg Trails) I'm good.

  • "as long as Bush is tried for war crimes" its been investiagted over and over and over again. You have Iraqi libertion Bills, UN votes, Democrats and Republicans, The same CIA head under Clinton was Bush's CIA guy all saying the same thing. Iraq is a Threat. But Bush is going down for warm crimes. Come on. That's NOT Nuremberg. Hating our own leader only emboldens the enemy.

    With Saddam Dead, and a NEw governemnt in place and violence down to almost nothing. Thats anything but a draw.

  • I wouldnt call it luck, yes it helped Clinton but he learned how to handle and control it. Also that still doesnt count for Bush spending 3-4 trillion on essentially 'Vietnam 2'(another unwinable war which could last almost the same time.

  • 'Vietnam 2'??

    In Vietnam you didn't over throw the North in 2 months. In Vietnam Ho Chi Mihn wasnt caught in a spider hole and executed. In Vietnam 60,000 US troops were killed. That's one more Dodger stadium full than Iraq Death toll. I cant belive I still have to mop up on the internet the last of the "VIETNAM 2" believer crowd and re direct them to the facts and MAJOR differenes. Next time you se an Iraq vet give him a hand shake and say "THANKS for WINNING" Tey would appreciate it a lot.

  • "Handle and Corntrol it" What? Huh? Once again CLinton left office in the middle of a bear Market. One reason Bush won is becuase we were in a economic slump (and that Gore lost his own state of Tennesee) Clinton controlled the what? The Down market of 1999 and 2000?

  • yeah but remember; under clinton we had a surplus and we didnt have numerous soldiers die in Iraq, while with Bush we're gonna have a 3-4 trillion dollar debt for a war we cant win

  • Clinton got lucky because of the internet boom so the American economy with stood the taxes he passed

  • Dont forgrt. Clinton left office with a bear Market and recesion. I dont balme Clinton for that just like I dont applaud Clinton for the economic growth of the itnerent boom. I do applaud the Republican lead congress that helped Clinton see the light on many issues.

  • Ok, it wasn't an Actual Surplus. It was on paper. How can you have a surplus when you havea deficit youre paying $222 billion in interest in 2000? If we didnt cut CIA/FBI funding to creat a surplus we might not of had 911. I think many people assume becuase of a Clinton Suprlus we were in the green or something. I really dont understand that argument. Yeah we wernt at war but remember 9--11 planning begane under Clintons watch.

  • "War we cant win" You can argue that the war was won when the Saddam Regime fell, a new government was put in a place with a new constitution and Saddam was killed and violence has been cut to almost 90%. Isn't that a win? I'm confused? It's sick how the left have taken the fog of war and made it political.

  • "It's already proven, that BOTH democrats and republicans can make the economy prosper" Agreed.

    "a real old dude" Like Reagan? At least McCain isn't a chain smoker.

    "palin who is a joke." Because her 80% Governorship approval rating and positive performance during the debate wasn't enough.

    -Because Obama's 2008 "Global Poverty Act" makes sense.

  • You can't compare Reagan to McCain, Reagan was old but he didn't act or look old. McCain is older and looks like the years have taken a toll on him, I seriously think he might die in office. And if you don't think Palin is a joke, you are really kissing ass. 80% BEFORE doing the interviews and going on the debate. If you fell for her being a Joe Six Pack and her folksy talk, and her little winks, I don't know whether to laugh or just feel sorry for you.

  • Ignoring the fact that Obama for decades was a chain smoker, FDR was in a wheelchair. Reagan got Shot in the chest. McCain survived 5 years in a POW camp he also has a 96 year old mother doing just fine.

    Once again she wouldn't of been my first choice. Im not kissing ass- all polls point out Palin had positive reports from her RNC speech and debate.

    McCain is just really boring to listen to. He's a very dry boring person. I had no clue he was that unexciting. I'm not impressed.

  • You can laugh and feel sorry for me all you want. It's you that haven't responded to several of my comments or questions.

    -What if Palin asked a paraplegic in a wheel chair to stand up in front of a crowd. See the double edge sword?

    Its the blind double standard that is really laughable.

  • About the socialist, that oh socialist, don't want socialist america, don't get a heart attack man. It's already proven, that BOTH democrats and republicans can make the economy prosper. It's more the man behind the party that matters. And the man behind your party is McCain, a real old dude and his vp palin who is a joke. In a time when we need change that doesn't attract a lot of people only the republicans that will vote for them no matter what they do.

  • -because Obama would meet with the "leaders" of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba, and North Korea "without precondition," during his first year as president makes sense.

    Because Obama pledging to cut income taxes for 95 percent of all working families" while 41 percent of working families have no income tax liability whatsoever makes sense.

  • Becuase Obama selecting failed Fannie Mae executive Jim Johnson, who represented a world of influence and special interests, as vice presidential search committee for presumptive Democratic presidential nominee makes sense.

    -Becuase selecting a VP running mate who once stated "You will not make a good commander in Chief" makes sense.

  • -If Palin or McCain was closely associated with people like the Racist hate Reverend Jeremy Wright and admitted terrorist Bill Ayers, they would be toast. But Obama is going to March right in with is good looks, witty smile, clean demeanor and get a pass from America despite HIS lack of experience and past associations all because "NO MORE BUSH" is the only real plan.

    You couldnt tell me Bush Policy that passed w/o democrat support.

  • Welcome to the USA (United Socialists of America)

    Where failure is rewarded with $700 Billion and

    Success is punished with the Highest Tax Bracket in the World.

  • My solution is to place each candidate in various political/mental/social simulations and see who wins then we can choose our president. lol (I figure its better to walk the walk instead of doing all the talking) but who cares what I think.

  • So let me get this straight. The DOW went crazy we didnt pass the Bill. THe LEFT went NUTS!!!

    So we pass the bill and the DOW goes nuts again.

    Thanks Nancy for your logic.

  • This is the fault of BOTH parties. The first plan Henry Paulson proposed didn't pass because of the votes, the second got more republicans to come on board and vote for it. Who's logic is it? Henry Paulson's, and George W. Bush whow supported it. So why is just Nancy? What about McCain Palin WHO also agree in injection 700 billon into the market, and you will still vote for them.

  • Let me ask you something WireWerks, if you McCain/Palin were not Republicans would you vote for them?

  • I'm voting for the better man to be President. That man SHOULD of been Mit Romney. Now I'm stuck with McCain. There is nothing that Obama has ever done to prove to me he is able to make correct decisions. Here's what he has

    A. I didn't vote for the Iraq war. (A war that we are winning and would of lost if he did hit his way, BTW)

    B. Not 4 more years of Bush

    C. Change

    huh? That's his credentials?

    Watch the video I sent you. This is the party that will be in power in 2009.

  • You need to stop throwing people out of your channel because they disagree with you, wasn't this the point of your video to discuss things?

  • I didn't throw out anybody who wasn't crude, rude, obnoxious and personally insulting.

  • Mitt Romney supported mandates. You talk about judgement, what kind of judgement is it when you choose your VP to be Sarah Palin?  Is this the kind of judgment you prefer? What kind of judgment is it, when he forgot who we were fighting in iraq? What kind of judgment is it when he want to buy mortgages, a bail out, and tax your company for giving you health care? what kind of judgment is it when he stops the press from talking to Palin? McCain might die in office and we will have Palin dykt

  • Oh and the war, the majority support Ron Paul, second is Obama.

  • The Majority of the troops support their commanders in the field. 2006 Ron Paul said this "one thing we know is what were doing now(the surge) isnt working. "

    Fact: It did work.

    We all know Obama didn't support the surge either. But you can read obscure online poles that show the troops somehow support leaders who refuse to send more troops to the battle field and insist it isnt going to work? I'm not convinced.

    FACT: Obama's views on the Iraq war are NOW, are NOW no different than Bush's.

  • "choose your VP to be Sarah Palin?" Fact: the the governor of Arkansas(Clinton) had just as much experience as the Governor of Alaska. Fact: after Palin spoke at the GNC and the debate McCain's poles went up. Your other points on McCain are all Valid. Palin is NOT the issue.

  • FACT: The troops support Ron Paul mainly because they are ON the field and know what really is going on.

    FACT: Bush went into this WITHOUT a surge, and Osama ran free.

    FACT: We can't afford the surge, 10 billion a week, that they gladly give all the load to us.

    Let me ask you something, how long do you think this war will last, say everyone supported it?

  • "The troops support Ron Paul mainly because they are ON the field and know what really is going on. " False. (see article link) Troops in Iraq did NOT support Paul.

    Today's poll-Military Times Poll 68 % to 23% Support McCain.

    "Bush went into this WITHOUT a surge, and Osama ran BOTH parties.

    "10 billion a week," False

  • "how long do you think this war will last, say everyone supported it?" First of all. the War was over after the Regime fell, a new Government and new constitution was elected. that's how WW2 ended. That's how all wars end. We recently came up with the idea that fighting an insurgency is a war. Its not. We are Still in Europe and the Pacific from WW2 defending our gains established there.

  • I just looked at your polls.

  • you got that poll 68 to 23 from the 4300 people in the air force. As a WHOLE the military doesn't support McCain, the support Ron Paul the most.

  • it's actually 2.4 billion a week, and you believe in having military bases all over the world and become the "world" police huh?

  • It went from $10 billion to $2.4 ...

    I would rather have the US military basses allover the world than al qaeda, Chinese and Russian military bases all over the world any day.

  • Sorry I looked at the month part not the week one. 2.4 billion a week, that's still a lot especially when the Iraqs can pay it, but gladly let us take care of that.

  • I'm not the president, so I can make mistakes. You think this is a dumb mistake huh? Look at Sarah Palin and McCain, that can go all day.

  • Please reference your findings about Active Military support for Paul. While it is TRUE that more veterans support Paul. I can not nor do I know very many active duty military that support Ron Paul.

  • Well the fact is, the military as a whole has given more donations to Ron Paul than anyone else. That should give a gauge on how the support in the military is going.

  • "That should give a gauge o work with the Military" No it doesn't. Pleas read the article I sent you from lonstartimes(dot)com. "those donations include civilian employees of the military, a substantial % of military employees."

    The Donation poll is completely misleading.

    "There are a substantial # of veterans in that list "

    According to federal Law Department of Defense Directives, plus specific military regulations says it is ILLEGAL for active duty member to donate to a political campaign.

  • Show me a poll that says Active Military in Iraq precipitously want to leave Iraq Now. Abandon post. Pack up and go home and not look back. Then I will say, Yeah, they support Ron Paul's Iraq policy and thus Ron Paul.

  • Yeah you should listen to the Veterans, they know what it is about more than even the military I bet you.

  • At least you will stop saying for certainty that the "Military" supports Obama and Paul. I work with the Military. I know not one who wishes to follow a "cut and run" like aObama once did and Paul still does. About which Henry Kissinger said "A dramatic collapse of Iraq _ whatever we think about how the situation was created _ would have disastrous consequences for which we would pay for many years and which WOULD BRING US BACK, one way or another, into the region" Such was Germany WW1.

  • You say Palin is not the issue. McCain is 72 years old and there is 1/3 chance he is going to die in office some say higher. If Palin gets to command our military you know how disastrous that would be? What kind of judgment is that, when you say you put country first?

  • "you know how disastrous that would be?" No I don't. Please explain in fine concrete detail how that would be?

    Palin, Obama, McCain, Biden all now have the same point of view on Iraq. The only weak link is that Obama has DRAMATICALLY has changed his view in the past 3 months. From a capitulation and immediate withdrawal to lets wait and see what happens. WE already see that Obama has a hard time making commanding calls.

  • Are you kidding me? Palin can't even answer what she reads. You saw how she talks in the debate, you betcha, six packs, hockey moms across the nation, you want this....joke running our country?

  • But a stoopid liberul like me can't get edjakated enuff 2 gets myself a high payin job to afford a fancy kollej to figurr out how this crazy ekonomee murks. I meen wurks. DUUUHH. Kan't you give me a lessum on how 2 make beddur decishunz to get more monee in my poket and there4 i kuud be smrt lyk you? I envee the smarts of peepul like yurself. Im voting 4 Borat Osama. Yaayyy! Do you like FOX Nuuz? I dont. I lyk Fox'z tho. And Wolfs. Like Wolf Blitzen. And Dashur and donnur, sneezy, and dopey. By.

  • Lisn, u saw di wideo, i dinat qwot fox , not 1 time, did I?

  • It seems all your talk about month after month of positive economic growth doesn't hold water for shit now.

  • Youre right. Lets just adjust the positive reports and erase them. Thats how the economy works. When you come to a bear Market, the Bull market really didn't happen.

    Stay in college until you figure how it works out.

  • that's basically what the people you are going to vote for are doing, if you're saying that, and you are still going to vote for them like you're their little bitch. What do you think Palin and Mccain think of your little facts? They think you're full of shit that's what.

  • The facts are the facts. Listen. Remember Clinton's last year in office? Remember that BEar Market? A bear Market Under a Democrat president. MArkets go up markets go down. No matter who is office. The problem with Obama, is he is a Socialist. Teh "American Dream" and "socialism" are NOT the same thing. I'm glad Obama will be out net President. It took Jimmy "Socialist" Carter and his failed ideas to get us Reagan. Obama= Charter Part 2

  • What I'm saying though is, if you think people are naive enough to really TRUST the media you are mistaken my friend. You think people don't know candidates LIE in their ads just to get a political edge? You think we are stupid enough not to do our own research and just relying on ads, celebrities or biased media coverage? We all know how that works, Fox News gets their talking points from the White House to pursuade people into their policy. Other media outlets are liberal, BUT

  • you can get conservative outlets also if you wanted! Let me ask you something. Has the media influenced your pick in president? Seeing how liberal you say it is.

  • Let's me clarify my self.

    I'm talking about Positive News Coverage or lack of News Coverage for Obama on things that SHOULD get reported.

    "Has the media influenced your pick in president?" Of course it does. The more biased Media I see the angrier I get and the more I don't support their socialistic liberal views.

    Turn on CNN right now. All you need is James Earl Jones voice saying "This is CNN, Stop calling into Washington and support this Bill."

  • You weren't going to vote democrat either way though. When's the last time you voted for a democrat? What sources of media do you watch? If it doesn't get reported in a news station it'll get reported in another like Fox News, and vice versa it doesn't get reported in Fox News some other station gets it. If these stations weren't biased they would be as profitable as C-span. That's the only way they make money, you act like your trapped though in watching biased networks.

  • I go to all kinds of media, so I can fill in the gaps myself and not be naive about things.

  • As long as democrats carry the principles of socialism as their moto, I will not vote democratic. Barack Obama is a socialist in every sense of the word. Socialist

    I get 75% of my political news from Larry Elder. You can listen to him live from 3-7 PST on kabc(dot)com . The other 25% comes from, CNN, WSJ, Local News and my own research.

  • Obama and Socialism

    -confiscation of oil revenues from oil companies

    -Forcing tougher business regulation, tougher unions, higher taxes, Stronger Healthcare laws (Then Obama in the same paragraph complain when companies go OVER SEAS!) Thats why the Soviets then and Cuba (to this day) DO not Allow you to LEAVE their country.

    -His two books clearly spell out the successful only get rich at the expense of the poor. (Marx's and Mao's complaint too)

    -"Free" college tuition.

    -Universal 401

  • Obama's beliefs cont.

    -Free" job training

    -Wage insurance

    -Free" child care and "universal" preschool

    -More subsidized public housing.

    -A fatter earned income tax credit for "working poor."

    -Global Poverty Act that amounts to a Marshall Plan for the Third World, first and foremost Africa.

    -a "living wage," with a $10 minimum wage indexed to inflation

    -"fair trade" and "fair labor practices

    This is ALL socialism in every sense of the word.

  • In March 2008 Obama gave a speech commemorating the 42nd anniversary of the march on Selma, Alabama, Obama and mentions his parents got together because of the Selema March. At the time of this speech was 46 years old. No big Media deal. Palin says she can see Russia from Alaska and thats major news.
