I kinda miss George Bush
When he was in office they raised the debt ceiling 8 times without hardly a peep.

He truly was the uniter.

:puke:

3. yeah,, if only we can get past his illegal war,and the war crimes,
and the tiny matter of shredding the constitution, Alberto Gonzales, KKKarl Rove, Donald Rumsfelt, The patriot act, Guantanamo and all the other crooks and crimes that were part of his little gang. But now that you mention it, what a uniter, and don't forget how cute he lookr during Mission Accomplished showing off his, possibly enhanced, cod piece. Ah what great memories.

4. The only thing I miss about him is that back then democrats
were united against him onall of those issues. Now, it seems some democrats agree with him. Or at least they seem to be excusing them leading me to wonder were they ever against them in the first place, or was it just a 'party' thing for them?

12. We must do our best.
That's what dismissing Yoo and the CIA torture tape destroyers was all about. No witch hunts.
Looking forward.

7. Debt was raised 8 times without a peep.
And now the media is turning itself into knots over this small vote.

I miss the media not paying attention to the crushing debt. It is all so bothersome, wished it would just go away and we could have peace again.

ALWAYS use the sarcasm tag.

Some people have zero sense for sarcasm.

11. True
I am, however, a non-conformist rule breaker. Do they have a tag for that I wonder?

13. Yep, Obama is a divider
Just like Al Gore. They both have worked to divide the idiots from the rest of us.

I'd say however, that both our boys have not been partisan enough. Bush really was a partisan mofo and look at all he got done. Over our screaming objections, no less!

20. What's nice about it is
Instead of the media focusing on real problems, they focus on this made up circus.
Just imagine how bummed everyone would be!

And it pushed the news about the british royals off the headlines!
