Flashback to 1999: When RimJob and the freepers HATED Bush

[NYC Liberal]

They fell in line for Bush. I suspect they'll fall in line for Romney (but maybe not).

To: Freedom Wins

So, it doesn't matter if he snorted coke as a youth? It was a long time ago, a youthful in-discretion? Kinda like people who frequented sneakeasies during prohibition? Kind of a cute story, eh? Well, how about all the people whose lives have been destroyed by being arrested for the felony of drug possession? What about the millions of people who are rotting away in your filthy drug infested prisons at this very moment?

Well, by God, if you people insist on electing another cokehead as President, you damned well better throw open all the prison cell doors and free every man, woman, and child you're holding on drug charges. And if you're gonna elect another drug felon as President, you'd better rescind each and every one of your unconstitutional drug laws now on the books, including all of your unconstitutional search and seizure laws, and your asset forfeiture laws, and your laws that enable your unconstitutional snooping into our bank accounts and cash transactions. Well, I don't know whether to laugh or cry. You people are sick! Conservatives my ass. You people are nothing but a bunch of non-thinking hypocrits! You're a shame and a disgrace to the Republic!

And, I, for one, am tired of taking orders from cokeheads and felons! Elect another one and I'll tell you what. I'll be ready for war! It'll be time to take up arms and run the filthy lying bastards out!

1. Ha, ha.

Those too stupid to realize they're being played have no use for history unless it's been whitewashed and re-written by one of the publicans' "history expert."

If Der Party tells them to do something, they do it, and Rimjob throws out anyone who dares question the "wisdom" or reminds him of what he, himself, said five minutes ago.

Thankfully, that ilk is an extreme minority, but they will go to any lengths (lying, stealing, subversion, treason) to pump themselves up and make some portion of the nation believe them.

I'll be ready for war! It'll be time to take up arms and run the filthy lying bastards out!

Oh, Rimjob's got a new theme:

A revolution is brewing! (Or some such bs.)

2. RimJob: "A Bush presidency will be very dangerous for America"

Bush loves China and he's very forgiving of Clinton. He desperately wants the press to lay off GW, so he's promoting for a kinder, more compassionate campaign and a less critical press. If anyone thinks that Father (and powerful supporters) won't have an influence on Son, you're crazy. Don't you ever wonder how and why the politically inexperienced, bad boy, G W Bush, got himself born again, rehabilitated and groomed to become governor of Texas? Not to mention front-runner in the Presidential race? What experience did/does he have for either position? A Bush presidency will be very dangerous for America.
...
Bush II is simply another term for Bush I. No thanks. Been there, done that.
...
By the way, I must've missed the years that Reagan's father was President of the USA. Also, I hardly believe that GW's experience sitting on the boards of ailing oil companies (as favors granted his powerful father) and collecting big bucks is the best experience (from a constituent's point of view) for becoming Governor or President. Nor do I believe the experience he gained by misusing tax dollars for private (the stadium deal) gain is a shining beacon of trust. From my point of view all I see is a powerful daddy pulling in markers from his rich and influential friends. And there aint no way you'll ever convince me that Bush is even one/tenth the statesman or conservative that Reagan was. There is NO comparison.
...
Can you tell us precisely what Scowcroft, Haig and Kissinger are doing in China and what positions or influence will they hold within/or over a Bush Presidency? And just who are the powers that be of the Bushies?
...
Bush scares the bejeebies outta me. Looks like his father got us into this mess and Clinton stepped it up. Now Bush II comes in to finish the job. Guess we'll all be speaking Chinese soon, or not at all.
...
Yup. Bush II is simply a continuation of the failed Bush I.

And, of course, he was completely against McCain in 2008 - until he was for him.
