'C' Students

FDR - 4 Terms
Truman - One of the last respectable democrats
Reagan - 2 landslide victories, ended communism
GWB - Two Terms. Restored Honor & Dignity back to the White House

'A' Students

W. Wilson - WW1 was a horrible choice
Carter - One Termer, worst prez in History!
Clinton - Impeached & Dissbarred

(Both Kerry & Gore got worse grades than Bush in college so be careful when you answer LIBS)

In the past year or so, I have not met ONE person that does not share the same view of hating Bush. I have asked people why, but nobody can explain. They just say he's made poor decisions and all this crap about war.
Can you please share with me your point of view?

One would think they would have rows of vanquished terrorists on display.

(Please - I know they qualify under the Constitution to run for President - So does Carrot Top)

Every President that I can remember have had at least ONE of these things on their resume; Most had a combination!!

Military Experiance, CEO of a company, CEO in government like a Mayor or a Governor. Foreign Diplomat Experiance.

Hillary & Obama have NONE of these.

Hillary & Osama are 2 of 100 United States Senators. They have never been in Charge of anything. They are 2 of 100 people serving in the Senate. On top of this, they have only been in the US senate a very short time. They are both JUNIOR senators. They have NEVER been in a leadership position of ANY kind (Mayor, Gov, CEO, Military Officer).

(Bush 2 times elected CEO/Governor of Texas, Ran a Business, Flew Jets in the guard, Harvard MBA)

I know we are all tramatized beyond belief, but now it's time to take back the word nuclear and find another president who can pronounce it.

Do you think Hillary Clinton would be considered a candidate if her husband Bill Clinton was not the President in the past. She was unable to keep her husband happy during marriage...do you think she'll be able to keep American happy during a possible presidency. Is being married to a former president really enough reason to be considered for president?

He was busted in 2003 for marijuana possession and in 2002 he was busted for suspected drunk driving.

This time he was driving 100 MPH at 2:15 am in Los Angeles and had marijuana again with a host of other lovely drugs including Valium, Xanax, Vicodin, Adderall and Soma. No prescriptions were found.

The media has hardly said a word today.

Do you think if he dated the Bush sisters they'd jump all over this??

Have other liberals here purposely not mentioned this or have I missed something?

It said no similar questions found... Did Yahoo delete them all?

"What this says to me is that too many whites are getting away with drug use. Too many whites are getting away with drug sales. Too many whites are getting away with trafficking in this stuff. The answer to this disparity is not to start letting people out of jail because we're not putting others in jail who are breaking the law. The answer is to go out and find the ones who are getting away with it, convict them and send them up the river, too."

"The truth is now back on the airwaves; equal time is back in America," declared Rush Limbaugh in reopening his radio show recently after returning from an upscale drug rehab center.

On the August 15 broadcast of his show, Limbaugh added that global warming is "one of the biggest hoaxes being perpetrated on the people of the world."

My big fear about government sponsored single payer health insurance is that if it were enacted, conservatives would forever be cutting funding of it as "entitlement spending" and we'd never really get a good functional system. Kind of like how they short change veterans hospitals now.

They complain that government will screw things up and then they ensure that government does screw it up.

He called Chelsea Clinton the "White House dog" - when she was 13

He repeatedly called New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin "Nayger"

He dodges the draft for Vietnam by way of a "pilonidal cyst" in his rectum

Is THIS the best man conservatives could find to represent the conservative philosophy?

Why do so many that do nothing but complain about the goverment and how the government imposes itself into our lives and how the government screws everything up (and I do agree that the goverment does these things) are so willing to give this same government control over their (and their families) health and well being?

You show everyone all the crime and corruption going on and they always - always - go back to Clinton, FDR, Nixon, Kennedy

Why can't they just comment on the here and now and accept that their party is now corrupt and evil and thinks they are above the law.

The same law applies to the American people, why then shouldn't it apply to those we have elected!

The nightmare is going on today - not ten years ago - that's over!
