rushmc 23 #51 June 21, 2010 Quote Quote Mate you really ought to look at your posts from the Katrina days. Obama deserves the same treatment Bush received while he was responsible for the well being of our nation. You defended Bush, I understand your opinions are largely not your own. Maybe a little introspection can help with that. They are completely different disasters, one natural, one man-made. One had ample warning, one had none. GWB didn't act for a week, then did on harrassment from the nation. Obama has to let the corporations, who know the most about this, handle this; his job is to lean on them to fix this and pay for this, they are doing that as best they can. I don't see where Obama has failed the nation here. He is responsible for prudent dealings with this mess, not the mess itself, just as GWB wasn't obviously responsible for Katrina, but responsible for a lackluster response. Your history re-writes are a funny as always"America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

People that are such strong supporters of Obama that they have gotten tingles up the leg (Chris Matthews) have been saying really bad things about Obama's performance in this matter (including James Carville). Why should I argue about their judgment in this regard? Are you better than Carville and Matthews at analyzing whether Obama has performed well in this crisis? They say he's a do-nothing, an observer...People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your history re-writes are a funny as always Your one-liners are needless as always. Just because you respond doesn't mean you address, you have to actually sunstantively say something relevant to be counted as a response. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IOW's, why not pass along their criicism of Obama. 2) I also heard these 2 guys like classic Coke over Pepsi, so I'll just lemming along and agree. 3) I am critical of Obama in that he didn't use tax dollars and send a bunch of unemployed people down there to save the wildlife, of course compassionate Republicans (barf) agree as they are also conservationists.

The Minerals Management Service will be called the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement, according to an order signed by Interior Secretary Ken Salazar requesting the name change." http://www.cnn.com/2010/US/06/21/gulf.oil.disaster/index.html?hpt=T1 "Once we got to the point where twenty/something's needed a place on the corner that changed the oil in their cars we were doomed . . ." -NickDG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
