A Conservatives thought process?

Question

Why is it that every time someone questions Bush's policies etc…. Cons just say well Clinton did this and that etc…why can't cons answer a question about Bush with out mentioning the Clintons? Why can't they just address the issues at hand?

Which is worse cheating on your spouse, (which by the way is a personal matter and had no bearing on the well being of the citizens of the USA) or lying to the American people in order to perpetrate a lie, that eventually has gotten 3000 plus soldiers killed and countless more severely injured?

What does being in the Oval office have to with it…give me a freakin break!! cheating is cheating, it doesn't matter if it is in a hotel room with a hooker, or in the Oval office. Saying that, because it was in the Oval office makes it worse, is just ridiculous. And for the people who think that cheating on you spouse is worse than getting 3000 Americans killed, you are pathetic, you should move out of this country.

Answer 1

It's a common syndrome -- many people find it easier to attack the opposition (even past opposition) rather than actually address and debate issues on the merits.

If they can deflect the conversation to be about someone else, they never have to answer the question.

But it's not just Conservatives or Republicans who do it. All sides of the political spectrum are infected by people who are unable to engage in intellectual debate and simply resort to name calling and ad hominem attacks to avoid the issues.

Answer 2

Might be to identify hypocrisy. Example: Clinton criticized CIA for not stopping 911. Yet it was Clinton who declared the CIA unnecessary because the cold war was over and life was beautiful. It was also during this democratic reign that a list of the names of many of our CIA moles in country were "leaked" and they were KILLED weakening our surveillance capabilities.!
Jimmy Carter opened his yap about the handling of Iraq. But wasn't it good old Jimmy who sent our troops to Iran on a rescue mission that they were totally unprepared for and the helicopters and other vehicles broke down and got mired in the sand?
Just minor things like that.
It's time that we realized that they have us in a Count Chockula Frankenberry world. We're being screwed by both parties,
. It makes no difference which party you take home to the kiddies..Is time for a third choice, a REAL choice.
"The Common Sense Party"

PS: Anyone else caught having oral sex in his office, on company time gets fired. (Which by the way is not a personal matter with no bearing on the well being of the citizens of the USA.)
Any idea how many governments were toppled because of a government officials "indiscretion" with a female SPY?

Answer 3

I think it is a dangerous way of thinkking to say that Bush alone is responsible for 3,000+ fallen troops. Ever heard of Cheney and Haliburton?! Read up on it the majority of books written on the subject say (with proof) that the Iraq war was perpetuated by Cheney & Rumsfeld along with other equaly as dirty politicians. They withheld vital information from the president and in a lot of cases gave him the wrong information.
That said, don't get me wrong I think Bush is responsible too, just not solely responsible. He can only make decisions based on the information he is given. He has made critical errors in strategy and I personally can't wait until he is out of office. Someone that dumb shouldn't hold office.

Answer 4

Since it was IN the Oval Office that makes it much worse. (A place where running a country is happening shouldn't be used to **** someone, it's pretty screwed up if it is)Plus I don't agree with this war but I have to say that they weren't killed for nothing. Clinton didn't have to deal with 911 either.

Answer 5

The "Conservative" thought process and the "Liberal" thought process seems to be the same.

Let's get this straight, if a person here uses words like Liebtard, RepubLIEcan or stuff like that, it's obvious that they get their information from the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Michael Moore, Sean Hannity, Al Franken, FOXNews, Moveon.org, Freerepublic, whatever.

None of them have a thought process because they don't think for themselves, they believe in a complete generalization and are oblivious to their own hypocrasy.

People who actually look up info for themselves will find flaws in both ideologies, and will take their elected officials to task if they are not doing the job that we the people gave them.

Don't let Limbaugh or Moore fool you. If it weren't for Conservatives or Liberals, they would both be out of jobs.

Answer 6

Shame on you for trivializing the 100 people Clinton killed in Waco. Most of them black by the way.

Answer 7

What issues? Beating Bush up? LOL


How many more times will this question be posted? Do ya'll ever check? Yahoo give you that option BEFORE you hit that send button, just in case you didn't know.

Answer 8

Clinton was convicted of lying under oath, THATS PERJURY.. No proof of any crime that bush has done...

You wanna talk about cons repeating themselves.. this comment is a beaten horse carcass

Answer 9

What are you talking about? Conservatives have a thought process? I thought they just acted on impulses and have their personal life mixed up in politics. I completely agree with you/ And we didn't have 3000 American soldiers die under Clinton, and we had peace when he was president. Look at us now.

Answer 10

Cheating on your spouse. He ruined the lives of tens of thousands of couples by saying it was ok to cheat. Plus he lied under oath and was impeached! I know you libs are proud.
