Bush bad blah blah blah part 2

[Exile_In_SJ]

it's so funny to come here anymore to see the same cast of Leftwing whacko characters whining and moaning about Bush. I love all the new threads whining about this and that. You guys are doggedly determined. Alas, isn't it sad that no one cares or believes your petty rants? The only people who do are your fellow travelors.

This place is getting as bad a DU with the left wing whack jobs. The only difference on the War, Politics and Religion thread from DU, Indymedia andd the lefty whack sites is, that people with opposing views can actually laugh at the silliness.

BTW happy thanksgiving.

It IS amazing isn't it? I thought that after the election, this place would settle down and become mostly dormant with a few hot-political-topics-of-the-day being posted every once in a while. I obviously misjudged the bitterness and hopelessness that appears to have overwhelmed the leftists among us. I almost feel sorry for them except that most of the despair seems to be based on their own dark fantasies and is largely self-inflicted.

[Exile_In_SJ]

I know I should be nice, but these are the kind of people you want to rub their noses in their loss. There are others who are basically cool, but personally, I enjoy seeing the bitterness and loss in these people. These are the kind of people that have basically destroyed the Democratic party.

I do find it interesting that it's as if the election didn't happen to them. Bush sucks. Bush evil. Bush Hitler. Iraq bad. Economy bad. Yada, yada.

I understand the hatemongering before the election in the vain hope of turning voters against Bush but now that the voters have spoken, why continue the onslaught unless they are just trying to justify themselves?

Only change has been "Red States bad" has been added to the chants.

[azbronco]

I asssumed that these lefties would finally acknowlege defeat and move on to actual salient topics. The fact that they continue to be mired in post election analysis and conspiracies, I am actually quite pleased about. They are taking time away from making real changes needed in thier party in order to have a chance for 2008. Brilliant!, I'm sure Karl Rove is responsible for leading them that way.

Doing the same thing and expecting a different result = Freakin Loco.

I don't think they understand that by being so far on the fringe they are actually deflecting people from thier party. Perhaps time has arrived for a third party to overtake the dems.

This is far different than the hysteria surrounding Clinton in what way?

Don't remind them, Enjolras. You'll disrupt their "selective" memories.

For the record, I don't think we are talking about enjolras when we speak about the board's resident left wing whackos.

Wow! What the hell does this have to do with your impeached saviour. (For the record please note that it was you who brought that sorry bastard into the discussion)
I don't recall republicans running around for 8 years saying the election was rigged, that people who voted for the other guy were ignorant, misinformed etc. Republicans continued working on defining their party. Not running around crying about not getting presents at somebody else's birthday party.

No one equated Clinton with Hitler. That right there puts the Bush Haters in a padded room of their own.

No media outlet contrived to forge documennts and ppresent them as authenntic during Clinton tenure.

The Hatred for Bush compared to the hatred for Clintonn is like night and day.
The hatred for Bush by the left is far worse. Clinton had a few right wing whackos against him,, Bush has the whole spectrum of Left Wng Looney tunes against him, Even the fat slob Michael Moore is a left wing Icon. Then there's hollywood, then the Mainstream media.

But no matter, President Bush garnered the highest popular vote tally in the history of this country. The hate won't stop, but then again, he left's hysteria and bitterness makes it all worth it.

I put LABF on ignore and lowered my cholesterol! Thanks Ignore Feature!

(*Hint* to the rest of you wasting your time on extreme leftist fallacy-ridden hate speech.)

[watermock]

Even more amusing is that Bush apon election reached out to the Democratic Party. No such offer was ever forthcoming from the bitter leftists. Karl Rove this, Karl Rove that, yet they never looked at their own political hate machine for their loss. They never looked at how Movon.org was run by whackos. Kerry never got thru the fact he was an on again, off again Hawk/Dove that couldn't make up his mind about one damn thing. Kerry fell right into the Food for Terrorism mess, asking for a "Global Mandate". The whole thing was a freaking comedy, and they don't seem to understand why they lost.

This might totally amaze the libs, but there are several of us that are swing voters that were called Nazis. I don't remember LABS going into the voting booth with me to point to his candidates. I voted some democratic. Supervisor, Sherrif, Deputy Sherrif. It's not important. I voted against that flake Harkin. I voted for that crusty old turd Grassley, who at least looks with a mean eye at porkbarrel defense. I don't think you have to know that I voted against Kerry. I might of been tempted with yee haw Howard the Duck before Kerry. Or McCain.

Look, when dimwits start putting me in a box, I push back. The generalizations in this election were astounding. Tunnelvision at it's worst. That is why Kerry was kicked to the curb.

[errand]

Man, that Rove/Bush team is amazing, huh? They have singlehandedly destroyed the lefts 40 plus year stranglehold on Congress, and has rigged two elections, not to mention was able to make Haliburton richer by arranging the WTC and Pentagon to be destroyed so we could go to war......the truly mind boggling thing is how did they get Osama bin Laden to say those things on that tape right before the election?

Art Bell should be so lucky to have these leftist clowns like LABF, Beerslug, and the rest on his show......................

[-Slap-]

Wooohoooo!

Four more years of nobody looking and gas will be four bucks a gallon before they're through............



............but our guy won!

[Roffe]

If you are 19 and in Fallujah, being fired on by terrorists, and the leader of the Democratic Party who is within a hair's breadth of being your President says you shouldn't be there at all, it does more than confuse you. It demoralizes you. It saps your will to fight. It gets you killed...

Yeah, morale is sky high over there now that Kerry has been defeated.

Yep, this is exactly the mentality of those folks who support the disaster monkey.

They put their own little personal partisan victory dance in the end zone ahead of their own best interests and those of the country.

These people are morally retarded.

[L.A. BRONCOS FAN]

People treat elections like referendums, but it's up to the campaigns to decide what the question is. "Are you better off than four years ago" is a famous one we should have used. But the best one was "do you want corporations to have more influence on the White House?"

"On corporate influence, two-thirds (66 percent) think large corporations have too much influence on the Bush administration, compared to just 19 percent who corporations have the right amount of influence and 4 percent who think they have too little (!)."

Next time someone says "mandate" shove that little factoid up their starfish.

More proof that the only mandate Bush has is for immediate resignation:

"...more people think the country is off on the wrong track (54 percent) than feel it is going in the right direction (40 percent). That's a net of -14 on wrong track, actually slightly worse than recorded by CBS right before the election.

Bush's approval ratings in specific areas, except for the campaign on terrorism, are all lower now than they were right before the election: 44 percent approval/48 percent disapproval; 42/57 on the economy; and 40/55 on the situation in Iraq. On the campaign against terrorism, however, his rating is 59/37, up 4 points since before the election.

The poll also finds more of the public uneasy (51 percent) than confident (47 percent)in Bush's ability to "deal wisely with a difficult international crisis" and with his ability to "make the right decisions about the nation's economy" (52/46).

On Social Security, by 51-38, the public thinks Bush is not likely to make sure Social Security benefits are there for "people like you". Also, they don't believe, by 51-31, that the Social Security system will be able to provide the proper level of benefits for them when they retire. However, the public is split on whether it would be a good idea (49 percent) or bad idea (45 percent) to let individuals invest part of their Social Security taxes on their own--Bush's signature proposal in this area.


On taxes, less than a third (32 percent) think Bush's tax cuts since 2001 have been good for the economy (64 percent think they've been bad or made or made no difference) and only 31 percent think that additional reductions in taxes (another signature Bush proposal) would be good for the economy (62 percent think such reductions would be bad or make no difference). And, on the question of whether the temporary tax cuts passed in 2001 should be allowed to expire, more say they should expire (45 percent) than say they shouldn't.

On budget priorities, by more than 2:1 (67-28), the public thinks reducing the federal budget deficit should be a higher priority than cutting taxes. (No question was asked about spending on health care, etc. vs. cutting taxes, but that result would likely be even more lop-sided.)

On Iraq, for the first time since July, more say we should have stayed out of Iraq (48 percent) than say we did the right thing to take military action against Iraq (46 percent). Also, for the very first time, an outright majority (51 percent) says that the war in Iraq is separate from the war on terrorism (up 9 points since right before the election). Of those who say the war in Iraq is part of the war on terrorism (43 percent), 34 percent say it is a major part and the other 9 percent say it is a minor part. Finally, a plurality now say (46-45) that is not possible for the US to create a stable democracy in Iraq.

On the political parties, despite the Republicans' gains in the 2004 election, the public now views the Democrats substantially more favorably (54 percent favorable/39 percent unfavorable) than they view the Republicans (49/46)."
