"Blame the Liberals"



Unbelievable. When your philosophy and worldview has wrecked an economy, destroyed 60 years of global goodwill, started a useless war that has cost thousands of American lives, run up a trillion dollars in debt, made the dollar an also-ran in world markets, shipped a good chunk of the post-WW2 Middle Class to China, indebted your nation to Communists and Islamic Militants, turned an efficient government into one that can't even collect drowned bodies of its own citizens off battered streets...and you have zero left but tired, divisive ideas that will do NOTHING to get us out of this mess.........what do you do when you stand up in front of an angry country expecting answers from you?........

BLAME THE 'LIBERALS'.

Yeah, it was those damned liberals, wasn't it....????



George W. Bush inherited a $128 Billion Dollar Budget Surplus When He Took Office. REPUBLICANS have posted a deficit every year since. 2009? A RECORD $482 Billion Dollar Shortfall.
http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/07/28/2009.deficit/

It was REPUBLICANS who sat in a secret briefing on August 6th, 2001 we’re told in detail that Osama bin Laden planned to strike the United States with hijacked airplanes. AND DID NOTHING.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/09/03/AR2008090303210.html?hpid=artslot

It was REPUBLICAN ACTIVIST Supreme Court that somehow magically squeezed the termination of legal recount of votes in Florida out of the Fourteenth Amendment...

A REPUBLICAN, not a liberal, has FAILED to kill or capture the man who was responsible for 9/11
http://www.expressindia.com/latest-news/Bush-regrets-edict-to-get-Osama-dead-or-alive/323453/

It was REPUBLICANS who lusted for, planned, and executed the biggest military blunder in American history
http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1181629,00.html

...lied about the justification for war...
http://www.alternet.org/story/16274/

..helped themselves to tens of billions of taxpayer dollars...
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2003/09/26/politics/main575356.shtml

..ordered our soldiers into harm's way disgustingly unprotected...
http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/iraq/2004-03-26-body-armor_x.htm

..ignored the wounded who returned to squalid care...
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/02/17/AR2007021701172.html

..spent...over half a trillion dollars on this sad aventure....$2500...a second.
http://zfacts.com/p/447.html

We could go on....and on....and on......

It's all Barack Obama's fault, right Rudy? It's all Bill Clinton's fault, right Rush? It's Hillary, and Biden, and Dennis Kucinich and Randi Rhodes....they did it!

IT'S NOT JUST A RIVER IN EGYPT. IT'S RUNNING RIGHT THROUGH MINNESOTA.

2. They like to preach taking personal responsibility, except when it
involves them. I've seen this before. The republicans create a big mess, the democrats get in and start cleaning up their mess, the republicans sit back on their fat hemmrhoidal asses and point their shit stained fingers at the democrats for doing what is necessary to clean up the mess the republicans created.

6. It's always the liberal's fault
Sadly, the days when conservatives had definable principles are long gone. Now, their only recognisable principle is a pathological inability to accept responsibility.

12. A campaign of delusion, denial and name calling promising reform?
Edited on Fri Sep-05-08 06:21 AM by Sentinel Chicken
Wasn't that what they promised back in 2000? Weren't they going to "fix" everything Bill Clinton had messed up and "restore honor & dignity" to the white house? Well what went wrong?

In the last 8 years the GOP has had complete control and they have failed on every front. They failed to protect America on 9/11. They failed to catch Osama bin Laden. They failed to find WMD's. They failed on spending. They failed on energy. They failed on education. They failed on "supporting the troops". They failed on global warming. They failed on the economy. They failed on keeping America strong. They failed on the national debt. They failed on diplomacy. They have failed on everything from sea to shining sea and they failed worst of all on honor and dignity.

They can't promise reform because they are the problem. All we'll get from them is more delusion, denial, name calling and failure.
