You can say what you want about George Bush and I surely have said a number of them, but to turn a blind eye to what is happening RIGHT NOW is just hard to believe. You party hacks better wake up and SOON !
I am tired of both parties lying to us....and am concerned about NOW....I was critical of Bush and am critical of the current president but what is happening right now is beyond anyone's imagination and we talk about Bush...that is just simply not something I can fathom.
If the best you can do in discussing the issues being presented to us now...if your only basis for support of this administration is to criticize the last president then you are NOT PAYING ATTENTION AT ALL....
And someone said that if attacked that americans would not support the President because it is Obama...or something to that effect...if I read it correctly, and if not I apologize, but if I did....stick it in your ear...that is the kind of anti america talk that is killing us. We always come together when the country is under attack and to insinuate that I would not because of my feelings about the President is insulting AT BEST !
I am sick and tired of being either called something or something insinuated when I criticize this president....slowly but surely people are coming back to their senses after being beaten to death with that concept for a year or more. As wrong as it was for those few who called those opposed to Bush "anti american" it is simply just as wrong to have any criticism of this man Obama potrayed as something wrong...I am really tired of it.
I am tired of hearing what I heard about those who marched on Washington....the President made a remark about how the folks where he spoke as they marched as more friendly...and Axlerod...he said those millions who marched are just plain wrong...what a great attitude !
"Remember Barack Obama's famous speech on race, back in March of 2008? Obama had spent 20 years listening to the sermons of Jeremiah Wright, full of venomous anti-Americanism and attacks on "white America." Yet when the reverend's rants were revealed to the public, Obama tried to convince us that he just happened to be missing from the pews on any well-documented Sunday, and that the Jeremiah Wright we saw and heard was not the Jeremiah Wright he knew.
It was a giant, implausible lie. Yet the speech was smoothly delivered and well-turned, perfectly balanced to seem to empathize both with the grievances of blacks and with the concerns of whites. So most people seemed to believe it.
This is what Obama's supposed gift for rhetoric amounts to: the ability to tell a smoothly polished bald-faced lie."

Bucco, take a chill pill! Check out the title of the thread to see why people just might be commenting on Bush.
And for someone that doesn't want any "history" brought up, you seem to have NOOOOOOOOOO problem with bringing up Rev. Wright over and over and over again.
Also, the man that commented on what Cheney said about no one will back Obama, should we be attacked, was not just some talking head or drive-by commentator... It was Richard Clark! Perhaps you'd like to check out his credentials.

Richard Alan Clarke[1] (born October 1951) was a U.S. government employee for 30 years, 1973–2003. He worked for the State Department during the presidency of Ronald Reagan.[2] Following the presidency of George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton promoted Clarke to be the chief counter-terrorism adviser on the U.S. National Security Council. Under George W. Bush, Clarke no longer had cabinet-level access, but continued in the same position until his retirement in January 2003, serving as a member of the Senior Executive Service, specializing in intelligence, cyber security and counter-terrorism.
When this man talks... I'd listen!
In my opinion, Cheney is and was as destructive to this country as a nuclear weapon. I sense pure evil in that man.
