They cheer when teenage girls go into abortion clinics without their parents ever knowing and get babies ripped out of them, but they are outraged when soldiers protecting our country get killed (not that I want any of our soldiers to die).
Every conflict has casualties. Believe it or not the Iraq war has had a surprisingly LOW number of deaths for the amount of time we have been in conflict. That will never replace a single life. However as a vet myself I can tell you that when people speak for us and our families we tend to not like it. Every person who died has a different story.
I think certain people can argue that their life is better after Bush's terms. Personally I've grown personally and financially throughout his terms. Though it's anecdotal I can say that I'm much better off. Are most others??? I dont really know. I keep hearing how terrible it is and yet where I live there hasnt been much sign.
Even though I also think Bush made a bloody mess of things I'm also a person who believes that the economy has ebbs and flows and that the best thing that can happen is simply for government to get out of our way and allow us to grow out of this. Spending our money is not going to help us. Overwhelming debt never helps anyone.
Have a nice day Kaz

Great Post PK and thanks for your service to the country
Libs dwell in misery, in thier minds we can never do enough or spend too much. People need to take responsibility and not rely on government to solve thier problems.
You Neocons here speak out of both sides of your mouth. Bush spent trillions, not billions or millions....Trillions on the Iraq war. At least Obama is spending stimulus money here and giving a timetable to end the war in Iraq.
And what about the two stimulus packages Bush implemented costing in the billions each? Those were OK but this one is not? You can't have it both ways. Bush spent more than any other president in the past 40 years plus. You will say and believe anything is no good as long as your party is no longer in power. There's really no arguing with someone who thinks we are in better shape after Bush's term.
The reason for the current stimulus was to get the economy back on track because it was left in such a miserable mess.
Casualties for the US are over 4,300. Civilian casualties for Iraq is over 100,000. I guess that's OK since the reason for going to war was so important. What was it anyway? I seem to have forgotten....

I have not seen one post in here defending the spending of President Bush. And the current "stimulus" package was to create jobs and keep unemployment below 8%. How's that going?

The fact two posters in here said they are better off after his term than before it, defends him and along with it, his tenure and subsequent spending.
It's no more conjecture than you claiming in that moronic post in here that "many on this site" believe that everyone is a lily-white, racist, homophobe, who lives in a trailer south of the Mason-Dixon line with no teeth while playing in your country-club with all your white friends.

Stimulus? How's that going? Smart to avoid that. More then 2 people have posted that they were sickened by the spending of President Bush; myself included. So 2 equals everyone?Smart.
BTW, for a journalism expert, you really should look at the definition of "sarcasm"!!

Where did I say "everyone", genius? I was referring to the two that said they were better off after Bush's term than they were before it. Nice conjecture once again. As usual twisting words and injecting your own thought process, which is generally skewed and twisted to begin with.
How much of the stimulus has been spent to date?
So far, housing prices have stabilized , the unemployment rate slowed down, manufacturing is up, companies reporting stronger than expected earnings and stock market is up.
I know, that has nothing to do with the shape the country is in now. We are all doomed and we will be taken over by the yellow hoard any time soon. How's that for conjecture. LMAO

You can call it sarcasm all you want. You know deep down it's how you feel and the "poor me, double standard" bullshit that's posted more often than not around here. Posting that many on the site believe that, is the kind of shit ass comment that gets racism wars started on this site. Not too bright.
TOO MUCH !! Keep calling it Stimulus. Call it what it really is - A pile of shit. How many JOBS has this pile of shit CREATED ?? Not the bullshit word SAVED but CREATED ??
So far, housing prices have stabilized , the unemployment rate slowed down, manufacturing is up, companies reporting stronger than expected earnings and stock market is up.
Really ?? Housing stabilized ?? Sales dropped 17% in December.
Unemployment rate is actually double since they are not including those who lost their benefits and have given up looking for work.
How far is MFG. up ??
What companies are reporting strong earnings ??
Why is the market up ?? Speculation ?? Manipulation ??

looks like slippery kaz is trying to avoid this question.

Kaz why do continue to argue with the mensa crew? They know everything, and are expert economist as well. OBAMA RUINED EVERYTHING IS ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW.
He started the illegal iraq and afghanistan war, he okd haliburton to fill the the pockets of cheney while driving the price of oil to alltime record highs, while his buddies made record profits at mobil and bp. He said mission accomplished, he was busy reading top cat in tampa during the worst attack in history of the united states, and he was golfing during the worst hurricane in history of the united states.That obama, he is a real gem he is.........................and now the mensa crew talks about the defecit
a 3 trillion dollar war in iraq and afghanistan....obama
once again kaz is putting words in peoples mouths. this is how he looses all credibility. show me one post where i defended bush's spending.
Listen here you fear mongerer !! Dont you ever ask any questions around here ! Your questions, just like the dollar, are useless !! Got it !!??
You'll be asked the questions and you better provide the answer that they want to hear and provide acceptable, trustworthy media outlets or you will be told to go back and back again until you fulfill their demands.
We can tell you are part of that Mensa Crew. Is that a Latin gang or Mexican gang ?? You know you might qualify for federal funding to buy weapons, just fill out an ACORN questionairre and you will be all set.
