Not at all. The bubble busted, but it wasn't deflated like it was last November thanks to the 8 years before. Bush while he tried, failed at economic help to anyone. He threw away $700Billion to a completely unfounded and unstructured TARP plan.
An 8 month recession. Wow. We are now since November 2007 in a major recession. Who was in charge in November 2007 through January 2009? I know 1 man can't fix it, but seems like instead of Military occupations maybe he could have looked to helping the economy (believe me, I wish Obama and the other morons would do the same. Stop healthcare until the economy recovers to some degree).
Of course they did...they were lied to by the Military leaders and by the President. Where are the WMD's in Iraq? Why did Saudi Arabia give more to the Taliban in the previous decade, yet we never went after them. Daddy Bush needed some revenge? Iraq was a blunder and no one can actually intellectually make sense beyond Oil $ Greed or Revenge.
Amazingly the only people right in regards Iraq were the UN, imagine that. They used their heads and negotiations and found no evidence provided (including ours) to even say they had WMD's before we went in.
We aren't talking about you...we are talking globally. The global opinion of removing Bush was a huge uproar. Have you been out of the country to hear the actual opinion of people? Canada is close and is far happier we no longer have a War Monger...many others feel the exact same way.
When in Rome do as the Romans. We as a country often follow the other countries procedures, such as bowing to give hello and respect. While you see it as a form of compliance, other societies see it as a friendly gesture. This is the same in business, maybe thats why Bush did so poorly in business and Presidency.
Bush held hands with another man (Look now the south and midwest are gonna call Bush a QUEER):
Which ones?
Easily 1 million times more, again this doesn't mean I still think he was the best choice, the better of the 2 options. You look small picture. I look big picture. Obama has done things in his community that she can't even come close to offering. He's been a community leader and actually had FOREIGN knowledge. She has no training or understanding of business. Hell her bachelor degree is in Communications.
Really the question in my mind was Palin vs. Biden. Biden maybe a loose cannon and say a whole lot, but he is far more qualified than Palin and all the Alaskan politicians combined.
Population of all of Alaska: 686,000
Population of just Chicago: 2,8000,000
Population of Delaware: 873,000
Again, simple change and McCain would be in office easily. Palin as a rebel choice was a terrible one that even the McCain camp seems pretty adamant lost him the election. Palin was a stab to try to win the Clinton voters, but failed because she was a small time politician with no foreign experience, no law degree, no business degree, and nothing to offer but a Cougar look.
