**Patriotic Retirement**

[Scott Harness]

We are all commie pinko bastards!
Why...
We all drive VX's ...Those were made by the enemy right...
Japs!
We can save this great nation by turning in our faggity looking Vx's and getting something made in the good ol USA!
A nice big lincoln Navigator..it's about as good on gas as a VX but you can put much bigger woofers in the back!
Now that's American!

This country is hit the skids from on thing and one thing only...8 years of having Bush in office. All the crap we are recovering from was from his poor and ineffective management. 911 was on his watch, he had CIA documentation prior to the attack but hey, was way more important to be reading "my pet goat" to schoolkids that day. Katrina happened on his watch, the mortgage meltdown....That was on Bush's watch also.

Republican's love to shift the blame, but the fact is the blame falls squarely on their shoulders...you voted Bush...Good for you brainiac! Now live with the results!
If you think Obama is gonna turn 8 years of governmental retatrdation around in 3 months I have a pork project to sell you.

I also blame the American dream of owning a house for our current financial problems.
So many mortgage brokers selling no money down loans for houses to people who bought into the lie that property is always a good investment.
How many of us were sold on the idea of home ownership since childhood!
Do you really blame the masses of people for buying into it? The notion of a white picket fence and a backyard is powerfully seductive. It is the American Dream..... But like most dreams..you have to be asleep to believe in it.
I also think Americans are at fault for having an attitude of we are #1!
Are we? We have slipped behind other countries in education, infant mortality,economics, and most of all, overall happiness of our citizens.
We are the only country without a healthcare system that includes everyone,
We are recovering from a president who favored religion over science!
Now some of the world has surpassed us in the medical sciences because we were sandbagged by that retard Bush.
I know some of you are gonna be quick with the 'love it or leave it" BS.
Well I do love the USA...I have lived in Hawaii and California and have traveled through most of the lower 48 and for my money this is one of the most beautiful and wonderful countries on the planet. My beef is with the old school who thinks that this country has to be an empire....that we have to be the world police....All the cash we spent blowing up and rebuilding Iraq could have been better spent here.
Here is to better times!

I find it funny how some pointy nosed fish can say whatever non sensical right wing conservative BS they can quote from Rush Limbaugh and feel like that does not stir the pot...but I put down my thoughts and Im a 60's era rabblerouser! If I was a republican senator , i'd be busy spending my time trying to make up reasons why Obama's recovery plan won't work to make it look like my GOP had a clue....

Decent retort, especially the pointy nosed fish part, can't fish for them much longer, turns out they have feelings and may be the cure to global warming and also are secretly storing the answer to our economy that is crashing due to the popped housing bubble created during the clinton administration that demanded houses for everyone regardless of financial stability!!! That was all on Fox news I am gonna fish for Marlin regardless...

But Obama is doing the same things Bush did only worse. He is picking his Democrat flunkies (who pay no taxes) He is spending wastefully tripling the deficit if his plans go through. Bailing out big bussiness on the backs of the middle class, letting his rich friends and donors at banks and AIG take millions in bonus and only asking for it back when we raise hell. The only reason Bush did not criticize Obama when he was asked is because Obama is doing exactly what Bush would have been doing.

I will defend Obama on one thing, for the most part, he is doing everything he said he was going to do, increase our deficit, encourage abortion, give money to those who didn't earn it, release the terrorists stored in Gitmo, raise taxes, and so on. At least he didn't lie too much so far, I respect that................in some weird, self hating kind of way.

Yes and no..
I'm sure you are aware of the term "It takes money to make money"..
Well It does, Obama is having to bail out these big banks and industries to save American jobs. Do I agree with it...no. I think if your business fails from bad management and bad decisions ...oh well too bad GM, too bad AIG, Too bad Citibank...That's the free market...The strong survive...ect, ect...
The problem is that those companies are not just high powered CEO'S and suits.Those companies are the financial lifeblood of millions of american families.So it's in our best interest on the short term to keep them afloat rather than have another few million people collecting unemployment.
The "New Deal" brought us out of this countries first great depression,that was just as big for it's time than this stimulus package is now. Let's face it , we could use an investment in our countries infastructure ...Does anyone remember that bridge that collapsed in St.Paul a few years back? A lot of good can be done with that money to boost our roads and tunnels and bridges.
If you look at history, this country has had it's best economic growth during
democratic rule. Republicans talk the talk but can turn a surplus into a deficit as fast as you can say "George W".
Just imagine if GWB was handed the country as in bad a shape as Obama received it...Where would we be now?
