I voted Republican all my life.

It took 8 years of Bush to make me realize that the Republicans only care about big business and the richest 5% of Americans. They don't give a shit about me.

If I was hanging off a cliff, and a republican was standing on the edge, and the only thing that would save my life was a shit, and the republican had a pocket full of shits... he wouldn't give me one.

If you're rich, yeah, vote republican.

If you want to live like a republican, vote for the democrat.

After Palin's interview on CBS, perhaps suspending his campaign permanently may be McCain's best option.

[ETericET]

Well at least he admitted in his book that he acts in haste and mostly screws up.

I said they had more than enough majority that IF they all voted one way and reps voted another then a bill would of been passed.

There you go acting big and bad across the cpu. I know a decent democrat when I see one, but what I can't stand is when a group of narrow minded dems try to blame it all on one man or party. That was the point of this debate between me and you, that it's not solely reps fault.

[UltraSWG]

You're just stupid, that's all there is to it. The dems had a symbolic majority only, meaning, they were up by one and since not all dems vote alike (just like not all reps vote alike) it was not enough to pass an agenda.

I don't even know why I debate with partisan assholes like you anyway. I vote for some republicans, like Ron Paul, and I vote for some Dems, like Obama. You're just too narrow minded to even think about crossing the aisle.

[XanderThaGreat]

as well as republicans who voted for more regulation. Democrats had more than enough to pass a stricter regulatory system, but obviously democrats aren't the saints you think they are. Plus, I will Never be a democrat, not since it took them more than 100 years to realize blacks should have equal rights.

[XanderThaGreat]

They had MORE than enough to pass an agenda. If all democrats in the congress voted 4 yes on a bill and the republicans voted 4 no then the bill would be passed. RESEARCH.

Yes, in two years it CAN be ruined. American citizens taking huge loans from banks and never pay them back so banks lose money, as well as the Joneses wanting a better house and cant afford mortgage. Congress controls the how the government spends money and they had more than enough power in congress to increase regulation..

[UltraSWG]

You don't know shit about economics or politics and it shows.

The Dems had a SYMBOLIC majority for the last 2 years, not a big enough majority to pass an agenda.

And if you think an economy can be ruined to this point in just two years you are a fucking retard! 12 years of republican rule did this.

BTW genius, poor people don't control the economy, if they did, they wouldn't be poor, jackass!

This death spiral was started by unregulated mortgage investments sponsored by republican policies.

[XanderThaGreat]

As I said, DEMOCRATS were in charge for the last two years. Their big government and pork barrel spending increased our debt AND they decided what to do with our country's money.

Another thing, you said the vast majority, not all, which means HOUSE DEMOCRATS are to blame, and the people buying houses they cant afford. Its a combination.

Also, I gave you a thumbs down because you think your big and bad cussing from across a computer screen. It doesn't hurt me, it shows your lower intelligence.

[UltraSWG]

"Bush republicans were the ones you should be mad at, not all the republicans."

Worst. Reply. Ever.

The republicans that were in charge deserve the blame, that's how democracy works. The majority of republicans are big government, big business douche bags. Ron Paul represents less than 1% of republicans.

BTW, if you think dems caused the housing crisis, you're a fucking retard. The vast majority of foreclosures were INVESTMENT properties, not low income houses, dumbass.

[XanderThaGreat]

Extremely ignorant comment. Bush republicans were the ones you should be mad at, not all the republicans. I don't see you mad at the democrats for hosing down innocent black people and lynching them like animals to the slaughter. But the liberal media tell you Bush doesn't care about black people or anybody then it must be true. Even if democrats had the majority in Congress for the last 2 years and caused the housing crisis and put me in a recession.

Research Please.
