  1. Are you saying that none of the defense spending contributed to W's "growing" economy? I don't believe that. War causes economic growth. Unfortunately, the growth is not sustainable unless the war is sustained. If anything, the attacks on 9/11 have strengthened the economy, since they were used to justify war. Math tutoring available.

  3. I will explain just as soon as you link to my post where I made such a claim. Hint: If you don't put words in my mouth (that I didn't come remotely close to saying), you can't make such silly arguments. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!
  4. How quickly the right forgets that Clinton's administration had to deal with the recession left by GHW Bush. Somehow, Clinton was able to help the economy strengthen tremendously. W, on the other hand, is just starting to get the economy back to where it was when he got it. It sure is a good thing he had that great idea about decreasing taxes and increasing spending.

  5. Do you honestly not see the difference between publishing a report that demonstrates the US intelligence community agrees that the war in Iraq is making Americans less safe, and documents showing how to build an atomic weapon? Please tell me you see the difference. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!
  6. I will be happy to give him credit for doing something right as soon as he is deserving of such praise. Thus far, however, it seems that everything he touches turns to shit. He has a knack for acting when he shouldn't (such as Iraq) and not acting when he should (such as Katrina). In fairness, W ha only had two major failures: his foreign policy and his domestic policy.

  7. Could you link to a few of those polls? I don't remember a majority ever supporting the Iraq invasion. I could be wrong, as the Bush propaganda at the time also tried to connect Saddam with 9/11, and claimed he had WMD which could be launched on the US within 45 minutes of Saddam's order. I can see how a small majority might have supported the invasion in the face of such lies. I love how in W's world, if things are finally better than when he initially screwed them up, his supporters think he accomplished something great. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour!

  9. If W was the only one to see it then it would be difficult to support the assertion that it was setting a poor example for the kids. As for road rage, I've been known to use profane words or gestures to other drivers when they do things that I consider to be dumb, rude or just plain boneheaded. I get it off my chest immediately, and go back to being calm and mellow. I don't think that we can assume just because a driver uses the finger (remember, this was not traffic related), road rage is more likely. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour!

  10. Do you know what hypocrisy means? Perhaps you can explain it to us within the context of my previous post. Hint: If it showed any hypocrisy it was poor, poor George getting his feelings hurt and complaining when he was flipped off. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!
  11. Another way to circumvent the first amendment. Love it. It never ceases to amaze me how much more worried we are about our kids being exposed to sex than we are about them being exposed to violence. What a violent, uptight, sexually repressed nation we Americans are. Would it really be so bad if we had the occasional school orgy instead of all the school shootings? Math tutoring available.

  15. Personally, I didn't consider either country a threat to our security. Having said that, which makes more sense for a leader worried about WMD: Invading a country that might, but probably doesn't, have a nuclear weapons program or Doing something about a country that openly announces to the world that they have a nuclear weapons program.

  16. So North Korea announces their nuclear weapons program and Bush invades Iraq in response sound like good leadership and proper understanding? It is fair to say you and I hold our leaders to different standards. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

  18. Yeah, like the next President will have to clean up the mess Bush has created. And the President after and the President after that and quite possibly the President after that too. (and that is all double terms too) At least he is paying attention to the thread that clinton ignored Clinton didn't ignore the threat. He just didn't go off gung ho without a plan, on poor intelligence. He may not have gotten OBL, but he didn't get him for a whole lot less money and fewer lives than Bush has wasted not getting him. I was refering to North Korea In that case, Bush ignored the threat from the time they announced to the world that they had a nuclear program until they tested a nuclear device. Maybe he was just confused and didn't realize what was going on since NK never announced a nukular program. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!
