This president and the last are 2 peas in a pod. We shouldn't be blaming them, we should be blaming ourselves for letting them do what they want. This is not a monarchy, we have no king, these guys are working for us, and it is up to us as a nation to get together and decide weather we take nonsense or not.
@ironwork92000 Except this president didn't lie to Congress, the American people, and the world to go into Iraq, murder hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi's, make over a million refugees, institute a torture program, deregulate everything he could get his hands on, let oil companies write our energy policy, joke about WMD's, stall an investigation into 911 for 16 months...there is no comparison between these 2 presidents. None.
Bush will never apologize for killing OUR men and women and hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis. He is an evil stupid man! BY THE WAY Bush, Torture IS NOT LEGAL!
Speaker Elect Boehner: It has been 9 days since the republicans gained control of the house of Representatives, WHERE ARE THE JOBS? . How do you expect (the republicans) a party whom claims to be experts, to lower our debt and create jobs when the party’s leadership as recently as last year proposed a budget WITH NO NUMBERS!!!!!!!!

The problem with the democrats is that they think the government can solve everyones problems. Wrong. The government is a big bloated corrupted pile of shit and anything it touches turns into dirt. This has always been true and will always be true. Power corrupts.
@BMac7773 that is immensely false generalization. i think what you are trying to express is that right wing politics wants to keep prosperity and wealth in the pockets of a small percentage of americans who have had privelege throughout history, and history is vital when it comes to this issue. Conversely,a progressive view would be to make efforts in eliminating poverty and helping the disadvantaged-not putting everything into helping the less fortunate but at least giving it a genuine effort.
Yeah, sure look up the presidency of Woodrow Wilson and his administration. That will show us how the Extreme Liberals aka Progressives of this world along with the neocons has completely destroyed this country as we know.
True Conservative Libertarianism is the way to recover to our roots of Limited Government & balance spending...
W is nothing more than a trained buffoon. The entire Bush Administration should be tried for war crimes and torture along with Dems like Nancy Pelosi who knew about it and protected & completely shielded these criminals with the "Impeachment is off the table" NP single-handedly kept America from even having a discussion or an opinion about it.
Pelosi should not be given the minority leader position. She is more proof that Dems don't get it. Try them all.
I can't Believe anyone Elected in Washington, Would be Callus or Uncaring. we Elect only the The Most Caring People Over, and Over again. Look how Wonderful of a job the " Parties" have done.

God Bless The Grand Ole Parties!!
@BeantownJim like very president before him? obama's crimes are perpetuating bush's unconstitutional warrantless wire taps and ordering a hit on an american citizen without due process. bush's war crimes are ordering systemic torture programs. they should both be held accountable for REAL crimes
What the fuck are you talking about? Unless you make over $250K your taxes have been cut under Obama. And even according to the Wall STreet Journal, the Stimulus has succeeded in turning the economy around, stemmed job losses etc. The DJIA is up thousands of points since Obama took office.
Get a fucking clue before you post anything.
I'm from Boston originally and you make me ashamed to say it.
@BeantownJim You are one big fucking idiot - you are pay taxes for subsidies that bush and the republicans gave to BP and other foreign oil companies to find alternative energy - Yeh right - they pocketed the mone y and fuck you very much america you big dumbass
@lynchmobb2000 If you look closely.You'd see that Congress at those times were Democrat run. Ask Barney "the banking queen" Frank or Cris Dodd or Pelosi or Comrade Maxine Waters! All implicated in tax hikes and the demise of the housing mkt to the Bank bailouts!
So Barney Frank, in the minority in Congress for 6 of Bush's 8 years bears more responsibility for the state of the country than does either the president for those 8 years or the party in power in congress for 6 of those 8 years?? BWAHAHAH!
The fact is the FBI found that 80% of the fraud was committed on the part of the LENDERS. And you know why? Because Bush moved all the agents watching the underwriters to other areas.
@lynchmobb2000 Your heresay is showing.Ask obongo about his part in ACORN Affirmative Action law suit You know? The one that Barney Frank said there was no need for regulation for fannie/freddie!
You mean the ACORN that was exonerated by the Brooklyn DA? The ACORN that was exonerated by the AG of California?
See what you're doing now in the Gish Gallop. "Oh yeah, what about this? Oh yeah, what about that?"
You are dead wrong and you will never win because you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. You just parrot talking points you hear on Fox and Rush and Beck.
And keep asking me about Obama all you want but I didn't vote for him.
@lynchmobb2000 The lenders themselves got greedy, but the people are more to blame than anyone. They should have known that the FED was setting interest rates far lower than they should've been. The people should have known that they couldn't afford those mortgages. Most of those people were only able to get loans because the government co-signed the mortgages, which let people borrow more money than a free market would have allowed.
You assert this with no substance. They're not my words, it's the FBI report which showed that yes, what you are saying is true, except that the converse is true 4 times as often.
It only makes sense. Prior to Bush removing the FBI agents who did oversight of the underwriters, your "individual greed" theory was never a problem. People were not banging down the doors of mortgage companies to lie to them.
There's a Pulitzer waiting for you if you can prove the FBI wrong.
@lynchmobb2000 I'm not disputing the FBI, what I'm saying is you can't blame the con artist more than the idiot who got scammed. A lot of the people who borrowed money KNEW FOR A FACT they couldn't afford it, but they still borrowed it. The people who DIDN'T know they couldn't afford it should have went over their personal books better. But once again, you still had Government doing something it SHOULD NOT have been doing, which was co-signing the mortgages.
You're not following. The people were lied to. Defrauded. "Oh yeah, you can afford this."
It was a scam encouraged by the enactment of Gramm-Leach-Bliley and the repeal of Glass-Steagall which made it legal for banks to securitize their bad debt, hence leading to derivatives and the financial collapse. The banks WANTED to secure as many mortgages as they could because they were going to sell them. They had no stake in people paying them back.
@lynchmobb2000 First of all, our whole system of banking is a gigantic Ponzi Scheme. We use a Fractional Reserve Banking system. If the banks lied like they did, and they obviously did, they must have thought that they were going to get something out of it. And they did. It's called the bailouts. In a free-market economy, those banks would have collapsed, the good assets would have been bought out of bankruptcy, and the problem would have been corrected WITHOUT wasting tax-payer money.
Respond to this video... *Continue* When the Government co-signed the mortgages, it allowed people to borrow more money than a free market would have allowed because it took away a lot of the risk that's typically involved in lending/borrowing. And the FED setting interest rates low didn't help things.
The free-market has a way of convincing people to save instead of borrow. It's called Higher Interest Rates.
Respond to this video... *Continued again* The higher the interest rates, the less likely someone is going to borrow because it would cost more to borrow that money, which means people would save and invest their money more carefully instead of borrowing to spend on stupid shit like cars, iPods, etc.
Credit is not the life-blood of the economy as the Keyensian idiots keep saying. Credit is a function of savings.
Respond to this video... *Continued yet again* In a free-market system, the MARKET sets the interest rates. You don't have a Central Bank, i.e., the FED, printing up money or bailing people out or any of that nonsense. You also don't have a Fiat Currency. You have something more solid, like a gold standard.
When savings are high, interest rates are low. When savings are low, interest rates are high. That's how interest lending works in a free-market economy.
*Final Continue* So there's no need to try to dispute the FBI. They reported what they were supposed to report. I WILL however dispute any idiot who thinks that the 2008 collapse was a result of Laissez-Faire Capitalism. How the fuck could it have been Laissez-Faire Capitalism when we haven't had Laissez-Faire Capitalism in this country since 1913 when the FED got created? That's total nonsense. Anyone who believes that shit is economically illiterate.
The fact that there were warnings about 9/11 and they were *ignored* is proof that American institutions as they stood were perfectly capable of preventing terrorists attacks in the United States. Now our basic rights have been taken away. Does that make sense?
Also put Timothy Geithner and Bernanke in there. Put the 4 of them in a small cage and let them debate taxes and inflation for the rest of their lives.
@AnotherAgnostic all this bullshit "looking forward" hypocrisy... I think you're as sick of it as I am. Keep looking forward and you GET BITTEN IN THE ASS.
What Americans wanted had nothing to do with the results of that election. The united states chamber of commerce dumped hundreds of millions of dollars against him. His congress seat was BOUGHT, and now the people of orlando are going to suffer under their new Big Corporate overlord.
@TheMetalPerson the lies in your skull that made you somehow believe that that was a good idea were put there by the money that you weren't paid, and when you get laid off because your job got outsourced, or because your company can't compete with wal mart, you can thank RepubliCo, the wholely owned subsidiary party of Big Corporate.
The truth is that gridlock is the best relief we could have possibly gotten and you should be grateful. Now there will be no bullshit comprehensive 2000+ page bills passing through congress at light speed and a president that will sign everything as a "bipartisan effort".
Now we can all relax and think about our lives again until either party regains control of congress.
@TheMetalPerson its not a bullshit lie its the truth they are better then the republicans if you cant see that then maybe you should do some research on what the republicans actually want
The "republicans" is a changing group of people. It wasn't completely tea party in 2008 and it likely will be something totally different in 2012. Hopefully the democrats will become something better too as all the retard Keynesian pro deficit spending protectionist ones would beat it.
A better thing to ask yourself is which party do you NOT want? The republicans kept voting no while the democrats kept passing everything. I wanted it all to stop so the republicans won with no
@TheMetalPerson the thing is the republicans where always against womens rights and they where always racist and they havent changed and they wont change and they will always be the party of no and i can only hope that the democrats will be like alan grayson and do what it takes to get change and fuck the republicans like grayson would but the thing is even the blue dog democrats are better then the republicans caz at least some of those are for womens rights
He is though. I watch every video he posts and he constantly reminds his viewers that if they know what's best for them, trust the democrats. They always do things right while the republicans always do things wrong. He's just such a hackjob.
How nice is it to make millions of perfectly able ppl dependent on their govt for basic needs? Come on with this polarizing and disingenuous talk. Govt is NOT the answer. How much more proof do we need?
@rickbar123 If you really want to know how the Bush Administration operated, I would suggest avoiding all of the books on said administration you see advertised on Liberal Media Outlets, and go buy Karl Rove's book.
That is the only book that has any real insight into the Bush Administration. Having said that, take what he says outside of that with a grain of salt.
Republican’s first priority is to get $700 billion for the rich and add that to the Deficit, Great Job. Reagan had biggest deficit ever on Military Spending, Bush Jr. $4 Trillion on 2 wars. War equals money on Defense Corporation and Halliburton Construction Corp. Yes Obama will spend $1 Trillion on Healthcare. We need Middle Class Party. Republican won’t help us. Wake Up.
It annoys me how they keep mentioning how US wasn't attacked on their soil after 9/11. There haven't been that many attacks on US soil in the first place. The death toll on Bush's watch was much bigger than any other decade.
I love that they keep saying, "it saved lives, and if I could just show you the intel we got, you'd know that we totally prevented terrorism. But, ugh, dang it. We can't show you- national security. I guess you're gonna have to trust us. And by us, I mean the administration who proposed a plan to fly an American, UN-painted plane over Iraq in hopes that it would be shot down, thus paving our way to war with Iraq."
the progressive vision appeals to those who can't think for themselves and require big brother to tell them what to think and how to live. Slavers are the perfect word, yet in a sense they'll too be slaves to the system. Progressives are simply those who don't understand and haven't learned the ways of freedom, libertarianism, and a free society.
@tirmen8er Big Brother? Wait a second. Don't the more regressive conservatives lean not to their own understanding, but in all thy ways acknowledge TheGhostFather and let him direct thy paths? How is that different?
Isn't the the celestial utopian fantasy they surrender to, as depicted by regressive sycophants, enslaved to theirmasters will?
Are you saying libertarianism is THE ONLY WAY to understand freedom or have a free society. Sounds equally dogmatic and narrow minded.
@EntinludeX When a puppet tells the American people the full interpretation of the U.S. Constitution by useing U.N. regulations and laws.It's time to hang the puppet!
wrong moron. if you think of self interest, than you think of everyone's self interest. Why should some poor immigrant family pay subsidies to my children's college education when they can't even pay for their own children to go to college. You're clueless.
Progressivism FORCES even those who don't want to participate into legal complaince, that is do something or face jail
my perogative is human freedom. when you learn that and ditch the propaganda that will be progress
Oh your perogative (do you mean prerogative?) is human freedom?
Well genius, let's see if you're as good at math as you are at spelling.
What should a poor child with cancer - but no insurance - do when she needs $10,000 per session cancer treatments? Or does she just have the freedom to die?
@kaysandesses Socialism is great! Until you run out of other peoples monies.Get ready for fiscal austerity.Brought to you by "Progressives" The Hope and Change society hahaha
Is itconstitutuion al to lie a nation into war, and give hand outs to the rich? Because that's exactly what Ws tax cuts for the rich was! He took money out of your pocket to give to his war profiteering buddies. Donæt you just love that just so you can see people die oin the street?
Itæs also funny. Rich white people of "old money" based their wealth on other peoples labour. Your employer bases his wealth on your labour
@BeantownJim What is blasphemous is you denying the scriptures in your own bible. EntinludeX has the bible's text on his side, you just have shallow insults, with no scripture to back you up. You really have no sense of irony.
@ASTCify Give a man a fish.He eats for a day! Teach a man to fish.He eats for a lifetime! But progressives only want to feed fish.Leaving everyone dependant and broke.
@BeantownJim Give a man a fish, he eats for a day; teach a man to fish, he eats for a lifetime; but the conservative movement wants to buy all the fish and put small fisheries out of business to make sure NOBODY knows how to fish and there are no fish left to catch anyway.
@BeantownJim Actually yeah. Let's deregulate more. You know, obama is farther to the right than the most conservative leaders in europe -_- it's pretty obvious that he wasn't ever considering to "change" a thing.
Bush was an asshole. Obama is an even bigger asshole.

@lynchmobb2000 First of all, our whole system of banking is a gigantic Ponzi Scheme. We use a Fractional Reserve Banking system. If the banks lied like they did, and they obviously did, they must have thought that they were going to get something out of it. And they did. It's called the bailouts. In a free-market economy, those banks would have collapsed, the good assets would have been bought out of bankruptcy, and the problem would have been corrected WITHOUT wasting tax-payer money.

Respond to this video... *Continue* When the Government co-signed the mortgages, it allowed people to borrow more money than a free market would have allowed because it took away a lot of the risk that's typically involved in lending/borrowing. And the FED setting interest rates low didn't help things.
The free-market has a way of convincing people to save instead of borrow. It's called Higher Interest Rates.
TheManiacalSatanist6 1 year ago
Respond to this video... *Continued again* The higher the interest rates, the less likely someone is going to borrow because it would cost more to borrow that money, which means people would save and invest their money more carefully instead of borrowing to spend on stupid shit like cars, iPods, etc.
Credit is not the life-blood of the economy as the Keyensian idiots keep saying. Credit is a function of savings.
TheManiacalSatanist6 1 year ago
Respond to this video... *Continued yet again* In a free-market system, the MARKET sets the interest rates. You don't have a Central Bank, i.e., the FED, printing up money or bailing people out or any of that nonsense. You also don't have a Fiat Currency. You have something more solid, like a gold standard.
When savings are high, interest rates are low. When savings are low, interest rates are high. That's how interest lending works in a free-market economy.

*Final Continue* So there's no need to try to dispute the FBI. They reported what they were supposed to report. I WILL however dispute any idiot who thinks that the 2008 collapse was a result of Laissez-Faire Capitalism. How the fuck could it have been Laissez-Faire Capitalism when we haven't had Laissez-Faire Capitalism in this country since 1913 when the FED got created? That's total nonsense. Anyone who believes that shit is economically illiterate.

The fact that there were warnings about 9/11 and they were *ignored* is proof that American institutions as they stood were perfectly capable of preventing terrorists attacks in the United States. Now our basic rights have been taken away. Does that make sense?

@TheMetalPerson the lies in your skull that made you somehow believe that that was a good idea were put there by the money that you weren't paid, and when you get laid off because your job got outsourced, or because your company can't compete with wal mart, you can thank RepubliCo, the wholely owned subsidiary party of Big Corporate.

The truth is that gridlock is the best relief we could have possibly gotten and you should be grateful. Now there will be no bullshit comprehensive 2000+ page bills passing through congress at light speed and a president that will sign everything as a "bipartisan effort".
Now we can all relax and think about our lives again until either party regains control of congress.

The "republicans" is a changing group of people. It wasn't completely tea party in 2008 and it likely will be something totally different in 2012. Hopefully the democrats will become something better too as all the retard Keynesian pro deficit spending protectionist ones would beat it.
A better thing to ask yourself is which party do you NOT want? The republicans kept voting no while the democrats kept passing everything. I wanted it all to stop so the republicans won with no
TheMetalPerson 1 year ago
@TheMetalPerson the thing is the republicans where always against womens rights and they where always racist and they havent changed and they wont change and they will always be the party of no and i can only hope that the democrats will be like alan grayson and do what it takes to get change and fuck the republicans like grayson would but the thing is even the blue dog democrats are better then the republicans caz at least some of those are for womens rights

That is the only book that has any real insight into the Bush Administration. Having said that, take what he says outside of that with a grain of salt.

Republican’s first priority is to get $700 billion for the rich and add that to the Deficit, Great Job. Reagan had biggest deficit ever on Military Spending, Bush Jr. $4 Trillion on 2 wars. War equals money on Defense Corporation and Halliburton Construction Corp. Yes Obama will spend $1 Trillion on Healthcare. We need Middle Class Party. Republican won’t help us. Wake Up.

I love that they keep saying, "it saved lives, and if I could just show you the intel we got, you'd know that we totally prevented terrorism. But, ugh, dang it. We can't show you- national security. I guess you're gonna have to trust us. And by us, I mean the administration who proposed a plan to fly an American, UN-painted plane over Iraq in hopes that it would be shot down, thus paving our way to war with Iraq."

the progressive vision appeals to those who can't think for themselves and require big brother to tell them what to think and how to live. Slavers are the perfect word, yet in a sense they'll too be slaves to the system. Progressives are simply those who don't understand and haven't learned the ways of freedom, libertarianism, and a free society.
tirmen8er 1 year ago
@tirmen8er Big Brother? Wait a second. Don't the more regressive conservatives lean not to their own understanding, but in all thy ways acknowledge TheGhostFather and let him direct thy paths? How is that different?
Isn't the the celestial utopian fantasy they surrender to, as depicted by regressive sycophants, enslaved to theirmasters will?
Are you saying libertarianism is THE ONLY WAY to understand freedom or have a free society. Sounds equally dogmatic and narrow minded.

There really was no greater advocate for the redistribution of wealth than Jesus.
On of his most famous remarks to that effect was important enough to repeat thrice: Matthew 19:16-24, Mark 10:17-25, &Luke 18:18-25.
