2007-05-26 14:44:02 · update #1
DESTROYED our beautiful, respected country.... and made it the most hated, feared, country..... anyone who does not think that.... go around the world and just see what other countries think about us.... made our country more christian even though this country is supposed to be accepting of all religions.... cut funding for government programs, polluted our earth, sent jobs overseas, destroyed the school system, taken away rights, made gays feel like second class citizens, not done anything to fund scientific research including stemcell research to cure fatal diseases, threatened to take control over women's bodies by forcing them to have babies, pressed WAY too much religion on the country, oh and not to mention THE WAR IN IRAQ

The Dems had control of the House for a good portion of the time and lost it in 2004, until 2006. So your premise is that now that the Democrats have control of Congress is what?

They gave us many things all for the bad such as the patriot act, War with Iraq, strained the middle class, higher fuel prices, a free pass for illegal aliens, open borders and a comming north american union, a national ID card. What more could a dictator ask for?

They have increased the poverty rate and lowered inflation adjusted median incomes of Americans.

They claimed to be for state right's but are trying their hardest to stop Oregon's right to die laws, California's medical marijuana laws, and Massachusetts gay marriage law.

Put the country in the worst shape it has been as far as foreign relations go. The economy is failing, the military is overstretched, the deficit is astronomical, and they helped perpetuate the lies to sell the war in Iraq.

Count up the total terror attacks on our soil since we finally responded militarily to the terror and murder perpetrated against Americans and others for over 25 years and after the events of 9/11.
Coincidence? I think not.

They changed the name of "french fries" to "freedom fries". They also changed the name back but with less fanfare.

Tax cuts, better education (not great but better), major economic improvement, and liberating entire groups of people. Is that enough? Bring on the thumbs down libbys.
