Do Liberals really believe that the world was a perfect place before George Bush came to the white house?

Question

I would like to know how channel ocho can call me pompus when he has never met me.

You people are great. You make assumptions so easily and think so little. I made no statements as to my own oppinion about GWB I meerely made an observation that the liberals on this site blame him for every thing from global warming (as if it were real) to ingrown toe nails.

Answer 1

was it better before...thats the over riding issue..don't you agree?

Bush and his oligarchic companions sabotaged American democracy so they could pillage taxpayer resources.

Bush and his cabal of henchmen lied to the American people about Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq, and they continue to obfuscate the truth while their companies cash in, Iraqis suffer and American soldiers die.

Bush is bad for business and the economy. He is only interested in enriching himself and his friends.

Bush is bad for the future. He is compromising the prosperity of tomorrow's America by shortchanging today's children.

Bush is bad for the environment.

The Bush Administration has manipulated the media to the point of undermining the Constitutional guarantees of a Free Press.

Bush has tried to undermine the United Nations, a democratic institution created in large measure by Presidents Eisenhower and Truman. Without even understanding what the UN does, Bush has called it "irrelevant" when it fails to fall in line with his dictates.

Bush is inarticulate and projects a stereotype abroad of Americans being ignorant and myopic.

Bush torpedoes global agreements on everything from racism and global warming to biological weapons and land mines, and then expects the world to line up behind him.

Bush took positive patriotism and global support in the wake of 9/11 and forced it behind his own narrow self-interest in Iraq. He hijacked 9/11 for his own benefit.

Bush stands against everything America stands for.

Answer 2

I'm very liberal and I do not believe the world was perfect before W. Reaganomics took us from the world's largest creditor to the world's largest debtor. The Iran Contra Scandal was horrific.
Bush's father got us into the first Gulf War, which did nothing but hurt Iraqi civilians in the long run.
Clinton did little to protect national environmental treasures until his last few days in office, making these declarations weak and unsustainable. Clinton also failed to do anything good on the health care front. Clinton also continuously bombed the no-fly zone in Iraq, not helping matters for citizens there.

Bush does seem to have taken the economic and geopolitical reputation of the US to a new low, though. And every time I think it can't get any worse, the next president comes along and proves me wrong!

Answer 3

No, but being old enough what it was like before both Clinton and Bush came into office, I can say it was more peaceful until Bush was here. The name calling and divison between parties started when Clinton lied about having a bj and it has just gotten worse since then. I don't know about some people, but I am tired of it. Both parties just need to get over whatever their on and get a life.

Answer 4

We had a balanced budget. We had a good laugh over oral sex.
We could afford to drive around.
We could afford to farm without having to get five figure loans for seed and fuel.
We did not have family die before they got social security.
Nah, it sucked then too.
But my mother did not have to borrow money from me to get her medication.
My Brother had hope for getting ssd for his busted back. (He died trying after Gee Dubbya took it away)
in all honesty I'm glad as hell he got into office. At a minimum I know how to suffer in grace.
If you notice it's the 18 to 25 year olds that mostly support that... person.
People who are retired or are looking at retirement are scared to death.
I'm a farmer. I'm also retired Military. My retirement means nothing as does my service to Georgy boy Bush.
If the republicans and other conservatives would get their collective heads out of the presidents underwear and see that the elderly are screwed, the ex military are screwed and the kids in the military are screwed. If they had to pay for mom's or grandma's medications or try to keep family alive long enough to get Social Security Disability.
Maybe they would see that George W Bush has screwed the pooch and the rest of the real Americans!
I can't believe that you people are so hard core that you have become stupid.
We can't pay off the national debt and if China calls in it's markers. THERE WONT BE AN AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 5

Bush doesn't have the intelligence to understand global warming much less cause it so I don't blame him for that.

I do however blame him for 3-4 majors problems that could have been addressed differently while he was in office.

The USA has never been without problems and it never will....for this liberal Bush didn't help matters....he made the things I care about worse.

Answer 6

Yes, Ethan, we "" really, really believed the world was a perfect place before the Supreme Court placed Mr. Bush in office.

We used to call the world "Eden"; amazed, aren't you! ""'s using a biblical term!!! Well, we were all either on drugs or suffering blood loss from our multiple abortions or just plain tired from picking up those welfare checks; so, we didn't catch the religious connotation, until it was too late.

After that faux pas, we just sat around thinking of ways to tax & spend a couple of BILLION a week or was it million; oh, well, it's just a COMMA.

Answer 7

Nope - no such thing as the perfect world since Adam & Eve were kicked out of Paradise.

Answer 8

Nobody but nobody thinks the world was perfect before Dubya was installed as El Presidente in 2000..What flavor crack are you smoking?

Answer 9

Nope - but at least there was somebody with an IQ higher than room temperture running the show.

Answer 10

Perfection will be achieved once all the humans are gone.
