ADK_Forever

This thread is for Navy Pride. It seems his feelings got hurt by a simple poll asking if we think Bush has done a good job, yes or no, as our president. Somehow, he thinks that up or down vote is slanted in the anti-Bush camps' favor.

Please, let us know what you think President Bush has done a good job at. This is your chance to brag about your party's president.

Respectfully,

ADK4ever

ADK,

Clearly, you ask a loaded question but you also ask a very obvious question at the same time. Those on the Right wish to point to Aids In Africa, yet another "made for TV event" and "marketing or PR" stunt, because he did in Africa, exactly what he did here at home when it came to "Leave No Child Behind" ---- he left most of them behind. He talks words of "good deeds" out of one side of his mouth and then proceeds to under-fund his own initiatives.

His Tax Cuts were a joke, once again designed to offer no structural support to the economy, but to make that all too important PR showing as good as he possibly can. Look at what those cuts have purchased us - nothing, zero, nada, zilch. He had no plan for the economy beyond the tax cuts and that resulted in no meaningful solution.

He then wanted to privatize Social Security, so that we would need an extra $700 billion on top of the already requested $700 billion just to cover the short bets on the funds that held those SS funds. What a joke.

Clearly, there has got to be some kind of cognitive disconnect with those people who "still" support this man and his policies. He's the worst President in our nations modern history and has put himself in the running as arguably the worst President in our complete history as a nation. His enire Presidency has been about the falsification of "imminent" intelligence and the desire to establish a long-term foothold in the 2nd largest oil producing nation in the Middle East, Iraq. His Presidency will be remembered as one that simply failed to produce anything of value for the American People and was instrumental in one of the biggest economic collapses in modern World History, not just American History.

He ran Arbusto directly into the ground when his daddy gave it to him on a silver platter. He then turned right around and helped to fly America directly into the side of an economic twin tower (The Fall of the USD and the Fall of the U.S. Economy) in broad daylight.

He and his former Wall Street fund manager, crony Paulson, are now attempting to steal the remaining china, silverware and crystal as the run out the back door having their pockets filled with $700 billion tax payer dollars. They are stealing on their way out, even!

These guys have no conscious whatsoever and the people who support them are utterly clueless at best and I would go as far to say, accomplices to the crime itself.

He should be brought up on war crimes charges, tried at The Hague and made an example of what not to with American Military might and tax payer money. Right now, Karl Rove should be made to testify before the House Judiciary Committee, but that should only be the tip of the iceberg.

Bush was and is a totally incompetent and failed President. The absolute worst I've ever seen in my lifetime, no doubt.

Maybe.

Maybe again, the deficit and debt he's run up attributed to those will bite us in the butt. More useful is the depreciation changes in the tax cut laws that favored production.

But he's failed to push the primary measures that would reduce AIDs and HIV. True, better then nothing, but not good.

Agreed.

As for my own list:

1) Fast track pushing of multiple free trade agreements
2) Attempted Tort Reform
3) Attempted Social Security Reform
4) Some environmental such as the Hawaiian basin wildlife reserve.

Like 'fast tracking' our ports out to Dubai. Or, 'fast tracking' a new North American Country where he attempts to unite Mexico and Canada with a super-highway that runs directly through the United States in the name of increasing trade. Or, the creation of a new US/Mexican/Canadian dollar, called the AMERO.

Yeah, he's a real economic genius, that one.


Which is like saying Santa Clause attempted IFR night restrictions for fat guys operating flying reindeer coach class shuttles.

Not quite, true. He could care less about Tort Reform. Furthermore, he's knows nothing about Tort Reform. My goodness.

Never did anything of substance but talk about privatization of a perfectly fine program. The problem with Social Security is not that is does not work, but that it is running out of funds. 777 point down-drafts on the DOW, makes it an unlikely place to be holding tax revenues distributed monthly to a 72 year old single woman with disabilities and no retirement plan. Not very smart.

Funny. Sure, just call him Mr. Maui 'Green' Environmentalist, at this point. Why not! He's been able to lie about everything else during his eight (8) year blunderbuss trek through the White House.

This guy has accomplished precious little of any real lasting value for the American People. Yet, he's the central cause behind so much suffering from here all the way to Iraq. Hundreds of thousands of innocent people are either dead or severely wounded for life behind this man and his grandiose cowboy ego. A blustering fool, if I’ve ever seen one.

I separated the deficits from the tax cuts, as I think that's more the fault of spending. The tax cuts, in and of themselves, were IMO a good thing.

Geldof and Bush: Diary From the Road - TIME



Forgot those, those were good too.

Iriemon

The tax cuts were a good thing if you think running up a couple trillion in debt that the next generation will have to deal with is a good thing. The pass the buck generation thinks it's great.

If I was in your generation, facing the inevitable tax increases you'll have to pay for all this debt so the baby boom generation could pay less taxes, I'd be mad as hell at them and their leaders who bequeathed this $10+ trillion debt on your generation.

After the tax cuts, revenues fell by $250 billion annually even though the economy was growing. When they stopped cutting taxes, revenues started growing again, mostly because of SS and corporate taxes which were not cut, but still lag far behind GDP growth, anemic as it has been. How can that unprecedented drop in revenues be separated from the deficits?

That was actually a brilliant proposal that would have been one of the greatest intelligence coups in modern history. Too bad that nationalistic idiots killed it.

Wow, you really are a conspiracy dude. You also left off where he's trying to funnel $700 billion directly into the pockets of the Elders of Zion.

Who the hell cares whether or not a politician truly cares about an issue? If they support it and vote for it, that's what matters.


You clearly don't understand his proposal, so don't bother.

RightinNYC

Again, I'm not saying that the deficits are good, but merely that the tax cuts in and of themselves were a good thing. IMO, decreased revenue and decreased spending is preferable to increased revenue and increased spending. Bush did half. Was he completely wrong on the spending? Yes.
