I understand.

But the thing you don't seem to understand what i'm saying is that he hasn't done much different about the war (now that you speak of it), our soldiers are STILL in Iraq, & the economy (he, aswell as Bush voted for economic stimulus packages).

Did you expect the soldiers to be home the first week Obama was president?

so him not fixing a massive problem of another president in 1 month makes that problem HIS fault, not the one who made it this way?

Please rephrase in comprehensible English; if that's a more polite way of putting it.

Nope. Though Bush was not the "one" who made it this way. He was one of many; Obama is intensifying many of Bush's mistakes, though in fairness much of Andy's arguments aren't making sense. (Iraqi troop withdrawal for example; which is a phased procedure that will take time)

Obama is also seemingly in competition to see if he can outspend in 2 months what took Bush 8 years.

Ignoring deficits. Forcing banks to give out loans to people. Spending, spending, spending to maximise consumption + economic movement.

These were the Bush Administration mistakes. Now they are Obama's. Except he's put his foot down to a new level of intensity on the accelerator (in fairness the Bush Administration really revved up that last couple of months).

5 copies of a 1,100 page stimulus bill that Congress was given a few hours to read?

Let me preface by saying that, despite my username, I am completely neutral in my opinion here. If you disregard Lewinskigate, my guess as to why people voted for Clinton is possibly because of his drive to increase homeownership under what was known as the National Homeownership Strategy of 1994. Clinton stretched the boundaries on requirements for home loan qualifications, which GWB continued during his administration. Notice how the housing bubble began in '98-'99, well before Bush took office:



The policies that began under Clinton that were continued by Bush were what led to the housing bubble, and in turn the mortgage-backed securities that have screwed the banks and fuked the economy. Theoretically you could blame either Clinton or Bush or both, but this is just my guess as to why some people chose Clinton

That's easy George W Bush. For the first time in my life, I felt like 1984 could be a reality.

Obama where is he on the list. He is going to single handily destroy this country. Bush was not even that bad for all **** he had to deal with, democrats have controlled congress last 2 years where a lot of econmic **** came from.

I was not a fan of GW Bush, but I think obama will be a hell of a lot worse. Therefore, I voted for "other."

Where is obama?

If English isn't your native language just say so and we'll get off your back about it.
Otherwise I have to say that you speak very poorly, even for a 17 year old.

This thread is kind of like asking "Who is your favorite James Bond?" (Since most people associate with the Bond they grew up with)

It's kind of hard for people who didn't directly experience the misery of the Carter administration to compare that with the current situation which is nowhere near as bad. . .

As for the Obama administration - Yes, that's a discussion better held several years from now.

I grew up with Dalton and Brosnan and I think anyone but Connery is utter ****(e).

Was torn between W. and Carter, but because hes single handedly broken the world, I had to go with Bush (Yes exaggeration, but he wasn't good)

And anybody who wants to vote for Obama is an idiot, yes, idc how smart you are, how sucessful you are, if you want to vote for a guy whose been in office three weeks as the worst president of the last 30 or so years, then yes, you are a freaking moron.

Okay, so it's not accurately worded. But does that mean you can't still participate?

It's kind of hard for people who didn't directly experience the misery of the Carter administration to compare that with the current situation which is nowhere near as bad. . .

So is he your pick?

As for the Obama administration - Yes, that's a discussion better held several years from now.

We should make this a red letter date!
