- Hillsfar, on 01/17/2009, -14/+51"Brownie, you're doing a heckuva job!" - George "Without Regrets" Bush.
There is a special place in hell reserved for these ***** who cared more for their wallets and their party and their lobbyist buddies than they did for their country.

The Crash Course
http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse - PeterODactyl, on 01/18/2009, -7/+43I knew he wasn't smart enough to screw things up this badly all by himself.
- Hammettrucci, on 01/18/2009, -5/+36How many of these people will be unjustly pardoned by Tuesday? The future will be interesting if the answer is zero.
- UnpossibIe, on 01/18/2009, -3/+26It's called ***** leadership. Something tells me you haven't seen good leadership in your lifetime, I hope you do.
- superterrorizer, on 01/18/2009, -2/+25Don't forget Mary Beth Buchanan, granted John Ashcroft appointed her, but she helped keep our country safe from terror and drugs by putting Tommy Chong in jail for selling bongs....
Yeah, I didn't ***** get it either. Stupid bitch. - FasterGun, on 01/18/2009, -0/+18bahahahahahaha
- HookmasterCH47, on 01/18/2009, -3/+20What number did you get to before you were swallowed by rage?
- hawkeye17, on 01/18/2009, -3/+20Once again, when cornered a right winger runs home to Carter. Carter was not a great president but compared to Bush he was Lincoln. The stock market grew over 11% during Carter's 4 year(see link below). How did Bush do?? I thought so......
http://www.forbes.com/2004/07/21/cx_da_0721preside ... - Dipsomaniac, on 01/18/2009, -0/+16Can we please just stop trotting out 'the troops' as an excuse for attempting to shut down discussion and questions? It's getting old and stale.
- TheSwashbuckler, on 01/18/2009, -0/+16The worst thing Bush did was pick Cheney as VP. So many other bad choices stem from that disastrous choice.
- Taiyoryu, on 01/18/2009, -3/+18Reality has a well known liberal bias.
- TheSwashbuckler, on 01/18/2009, -0/+15There is a school of thought that if one accepts a pardon then one is admitting (s)he committed a crime.
- wreckosaurus, on 01/18/2009, -2/+1775% of the country says he was a failure as a president. Digg is just slightly more skewed as the 25% that approve don't know how to use computers.
- chadwalters23, on 01/18/2009, -2/+16Note for Time Travelers: Go ahead and print this article.
- publiclurker, on 01/18/2009, -0/+14Please do not use our troops as an excuse to justify these crimes. Name one freedom that they are protecting. Note: the profits of war criminals like Cheney are not freedoms.
- Insightful, on 01/18/2009, -11/+25War crime tribunal: Please start here.
- Dipsomaniac, on 01/18/2009, -2/+15But seriously, when Clinton took office you would have been 5 years old. That's not really an age where you make decisions about his performance for yourself.
I bet your parents hated Clinton, right? - hawkeye17, on 01/18/2009, -3/+15No just a lot of people who can read and think for themselves.
- wreckosaurus, on 01/18/2009, -2/+14So neurosurgeon and Emory professor = "TV hack"
And some guy who will be "present" at the inauguration is an appointment?
Come on, it doesn't matter who he appoints, you're going to hate them no matter what because you're a partisan hack piece of *****. - Dipsomaniac, on 01/18/2009, -1/+12Right, because Reaganomics was so great. I mean, there can't be anything bad about taking the US from being the world's largest creditor to the world's largest debtor. That didn't have any lasting effects or anything.
- Swivelstick, on 01/19/2009, -0/+11And they aren't fighting for "freedom" in fact whilst they have been off fighting for this freedom your rights have been eroded at an astounding rate.
- wreckosaurus, on 01/18/2009, -0/+111
- RogueGenius, on 01/18/2009, -2/+13Sure they helped, but lets give the man himself his due. Of all the ***** on his staff, it really took a ***** of truly cyclopean proportion to gather and arrange these ***** into the ***** generating machine that was this administration. A lot of people think Bush was just a simp; a dup that was controlled by others. No doubt partly true, but he was right there in the heart of EVERYTHING. You can say Dick screwed up this, and Rummy screwed up that -- but Bush was involved in ALL the screw ups. He deserves every bit of blame he's getting -- and probably a lot more.
- hawkeye17, on 01/18/2009, -2/+13Bush from 2002 to 2008 the Dow lost close to 20% of it's value:
http://www.djindexes.com/DJIA110/learning-center/
Bush created 3million jobs in 8 years. Clinton created 23.1 million and Carter 10.5million(in only 4 years). Reality is a bitch ain't it?
http://blogs.wsj.com/economics/2009/01/09/bush-on- ... - hawkeye17, on 01/18/2009, -3/+14The stock market grew double digits under Carter. Carter wasn't a great president but to compare him to Bush is ludicrous and a sure sign of moonbat right wing idiocy. Have you read a newspaper lately pal?? Get your head out of the sand. Right wingers always run to Clinton and Carter when they have no facts to back up their nonsense.
- groo68, on 01/18/2009, -0/+11Most of the troops are against the "war", but if they don't fight it they get shot. That's what you sign up for in the army; A.W.O.L = dead
- Dipsomaniac, on 01/18/2009, -4/+14Carter final approval: 44%
Bush final approval: 22%
I'm guessing you three are in that 22%. - hawkeye17, on 01/18/2009, -4/+14What about the fact that none of these people you mention have been in the job yet. Your argument is invalid because your analogies are ridiculous.
- JD52, on 01/18/2009, -1/+11This is a perfect example of how Countries/Corporations can be corrupted from the top down.
- Dipsomaniac, on 01/18/2009, -1/+11Instead of repeating too much, I'll refer you to hawkeye17's link, below, and point out that comparing unemployment rates now with Carter's is apples and oranges because of changes in measurement methods.
But you know that if Bush had come out with a decent approval rating you'd be trumpeting it to the moon; I bet it'd means something then, right? - kontraire, on 01/19/2009, -1/+10The stupid is strong with this one.
- inactive, on 01/18/2009, -0/+8I bet this douche here doesn't even know what socialism is. Don't try to explain anything to him. He seems to be happy where he's at.
- SpeedyThing, on 01/18/2009, -0/+9I can say with almost 100% certainty that there would have been no attack under Kerry either. All that Bush has done has created more terror cells who want to attack you.
- Tehrab, on 01/18/2009, -0/+9Also, pardons are not about justice, by their very definition.
- Swivelstick, on 01/18/2009, -0/+9What the hell the media was in his pocket far more then any other president especially after 9/11 stating otherwise is a blindness that the 22% needs to wake up from just because someone has a similar mindset or is seen to have similar values does not make them you friend in fact quiet the opposite and I would bet that many in that deluded 22% are far worse of monetary wise then before Bush.
- PGPirate, on 01/18/2009, -1/+1013. John Ashcroft - seems too low
- RHMac, on 01/18/2009, -0/+9Dugg for "Home, home at the Hauge."
- Dipsomaniac, on 01/18/2009, -0/+8It wasn't Bush. It was the anti-terrorism rock I keep in my pocket.
(There's just as much evidence for that as for Bush stopping any attacks). - Dumbledorito, on 01/18/2009, -2/+10Yeah, it's code for what they do to people in Guantanamo Bay.
But it's not torture. Cheney told me so. - mhearne, on 01/19/2009, -0/+8@ poprocksandsoda
You don't really think that he was actually running anything do you??? If so, then you have greatly "misunderestimated" the situation. I smell daddy all over the place. The entire history of the past 8 years was carefully scripted long before the election of 2000.
Every election that he participated in was challenged, including the Texas Gubernatorials in 1994, and 1998. The Supreme Court had to decide the presidential outcome in 2000, and the 2004 vote was decided by a smear campain.
By the way, we aren't supposed to have "leaders" in this country, we're supposed to have "representatives". For now, I am simply happy to see that embarrassment out of office. - rescu911, on 01/18/2009, -3/+11Just reading through those names gave me the willies. And to think we dealt with all of them at once. *shudder*
- Dipsomaniac, on 01/18/2009, -0/+8Actually, there's some people in here who are angry at new appointees because they won't take responsibility for actions they haven't taken yet.
It's confusing, isn't it? - jrburkh, on 01/18/2009, -0/+8It's sad to think that just being an incompetent idiot, by itself, was not enough to create this fiasco. Makes me feel as though Chandler Browne would make a better president - no offense to his intelligence, it's just... he's 12.
- melformosa, on 01/18/2009, -0/+8I doubt the names on the list are going to feel bad about the job they did. However, it would be nice to think that they would feel shame...
- inactive, on 01/18/2009, -0/+8Look at the bright side. You the Republicans will get to play the offense. So let me be the first to say to GOPers, SUPPORT THE TROOPS!!!111!11!1
- rebotfc, on 01/18/2009, -1/+9I feel bad for Colin Powell but he must take responsibility for the part he played. Probably the most honourable man in Bush's administration.
Dugg because the list didn't whitewash his involvement. - Red1000, on 01/18/2009, -0/+8Cooney should be higher on the list. Where the hell do you get off appointing an oil lobbyist to position in charge of protecting the environment in the first place? And then he censored scientists on reports about the environment.
- melformosa, on 01/18/2009, -0/+8Something tells me poprocksandsoda didn't read the article....
- Dipsomaniac, on 01/18/2009, -2/+10Wow, every time someone points out where Carter out-performed Bush, the 22%-ers come rushing in and move goalposts around.
