Oh I'm just getting started just sad to see and have to live through what this party has done.
The year 2008 a new President takes office and the top Republican in the house says this.

Better thank both parties. They both do it. Bush had it easy compared to Trump and Palin, for that matter. Partisanship is truly ugly, isn't it?

It's not ugly enough for me the Dems are way to damn nice compared to the GOP. It's time to really get nasty.

I think you are getting your wish. I fail to see anything positive in it, however.

This is nonsense.
FBI Director James Comey should have never gotten involved in our elections. Russia hacking release should have never been one sided these are the reason she lost.

That sort of denial will guarantee more defeats.
 
The bad part about Charles Manson being ill is that he might die before Donald Trump can nominate him as his new Secretary of Mental Health. :mrgreen:

The year 2000
Thanks GOP for George W. Bush. Here was a guy who brother stole the election for him. Coming into the office left with a surplus the nation puts its faith into a c plus college graduate. Then 9-11 happens on his watch by all GOP talking points today this would by default make bush Jr. The worst President ever. But after an act of war the nation unites then the bush administration lies to the U.N. and the America people about weapons of mass destruction. 2 wars later and no domestic agenda after 6 years or so this guy was done thanks GOP.

Sure, Bush cheated, but so did Al Gore, by cherry picking the counties in Florida he wanted to do the recount in, and by not accepting the votes of soldiers who were overseas. He did this by going to the Florida Supreme Court. Bush countered by going to SCOTUS, which nixed what Gore was attempting to do.

Yea, Democrats cheat too. Republicans happen to be just a little better at it. If you want to REALLY look at how Republicans took Florida that year, look no further than the number of black people who were legally entitled to vote, but were denied.

Time to let go of Bush. It has been almost a decade.

The Democrats' Ditch Is Only Getting Deeper
Ed Rogers, Washington Post

Democrats in Congress are digging themselves a ditch that keeps getting deeper. There’s no good fight to be had on Judge Neil Gorsuch, they’re getting steamrolled on repealing and replacing Obamacare, and their base has lurched to the far left, fully outside their grasp. The result? An out-of-touch leadership that can’t stop babbling. And for all the Trump administration’s miscues, Democrats haven’t laid a glove on the president. They couldn’t appear any weaker. . . .

I know I'm new to the thread, but I have scanned this thread and there have been some good post and some I would not agree with.
It is my opinion that both the Republican and Democratic parties have let America and Americans down.
Too long have the American voter gone to the polls and as had to choose the lesser of two evils.
Too long has the American people listen to Republicans and Democrats play "THE BLAME GAME SHUFFLE AND NOT MY FAULT DANCE" while America spirals deeper in debt and Americans from lower middle class down face more budget cuts, the middle class face another tax increase while the billionaires and millionaires get another raise on their tax cuts.
Too long has Americans job wage remains stagnant on the working poor and more tax cuts for insurance companies
In 2007 the #1 technological advancement in America was an I PHONE. I have seen nothing new since only upgrades
For those of you who like history" American history" remember America basically started the industrial revolution, America in 1929 fell on hard times the 30's was no cake walk for America they didn't call it the depression for nothing, but America survived and came out better Why? because of one fact the American people united can accomplish the imposible
,World War 2 Germany said we were weak, Japan said we were not smart , both underestimated the American people again united the American people although surprised and not ready for war got ready really fast.
Perhaps I have lived too long to ask for something at one time was a given, all Americans rich poor or Republican or Democrat or independent, stand united for the progress and benefit of America and Americans , without any of the can't because the Republicans or can't because the Democrats or can't because nothing I can do or can't because my profits might drop.:peace

Britain started the Industrial Revolution.
 
Breaking news GOP can't even get to a vote on a bill they been crying about for the past 7 years.
SMH
 
Britain was then and is now I hope a great ally and friend to America and the American people. Although Britain may have started the Industrial Revolution, America was quick to catch up , WHY? , because Americans united under one goal the progress of America
.So What changed? The American Auto companies were told make cars with more mpg's they didn't listen Japan did America has been playing catch up ever since.:peace

For the rich it only makes a difference because the government has been spending and spends too much on medical services. But that would worry every American that took the time and made the effort to understand it.
