    YES, you are so right they're some here who have gone back to place blame in the Clinton years so let the blame continue.

    Well, it was Clinton's administration that wanted to loosen the rules to make home-ownership available to people who couldn't ultimately afford it. :? We saw how that affected the economy.

    we can push blame all the way back to the first constitutional president but it won't help any will it ?
    the question is what will our new president do to help make thing's better, blaming the last guy is a ez out for the current guy....IMO, beside isen't that what nobama's slogan was all about "CHANGE" :lolno:

    Well there is no reset button for a new president so he does have to deal with the baggage of crap left to him by the previous administration.

    true but so has every president before him, to tell you the truth it's not a job I would like to do, have you noticed that every president looks like they have aged 10 years after their first 1 to 2 years in office ?

    Well that's a gauranteed CHANGE we can count on with every president's first years in office. I said long ago Obama's hair will be completely white by the time he leaves office.

    I wholeheartedly, and respectfully disagree, Godfather. Unless I am wrong, I get the sense you would rather us NEVER look backwards. But, if we never look backwards and evaluate the previous administrations, we will never learn from the mistakes of the previous administrations. So, I think it is vital for the progressions of our country, to continually look back to try and emulate the good, and avoid the bad, while trying to always make this country a better place to be and call home. It is not as though this countries slate is wiped clean when a new president takes over - so the entire process is a continuation from every previous president's administration. Knowing and analyzing the past is crucial to moving forward.

    Everyone in our nation needs to stop taking sides, and all the other partisan nonsense and discuss issues and solutions and nothing more. We're too concerned about who the messenger is compared to the message or people rooting for their side like it's a sporting event.
    CONservative governMENt

    Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

    i don't complain about bush. just the idiots who voted for him a second time, and now spend their every waking moment revelling in how fucked up the country is because we have a new President all of a sudden.

    oh.

    and stupid rednecks. i'm not overly keen on them either.

    their is no difference Politics is just like WWF! Sad but true! It's an Illusion that we have a choice to make us think we live in a democracy! We just vote the other person out! But the agenda continues Obama just proved to all you Dems and libs honestly there is no difference. Just one example Obama re-signed the Patriot Act!!
    I think there are few politicians out there who want to help but not many. I will vote for Ron Paul again.

    past history is what guides us into the future,the best tool we have to move forward onto the future.
    but it is abused and over used to a point.in corporate business they use tool's to improve productivity
    and profit one of those is called "root cause Analisess"(spelling ?) what happened what changed and why did it happen
    but MOST OF ALL how can we fix it ? this is my point, that's all.

    some one sent me this, do the stats seem accurate ? if so lets break out the fish bone chart and fix it. :lol:

    Godfather.

    A recent "Investor's Business Daily" article provided very interesting
    statistics from a survey by the United Nations International Health
    Organization.

    Percentage of men and women who survived a cancer five years after
    diagnosis:
    U.S. 65%
    England 46%
    Canada 42%

    Percentage of patients diagnosed with diabetes who received treatment
    within six months:
    U.S. 93%
    England 15%
    Canada 43%

    Percentage of seniors needing hip replacement who received it within six
    months:
    U.S. 90%
    England 15%
    Canada 43%

    Percentage referred to a medical specialist who see one within one month:
    U.S. 77%
    England 40%
    Canada 43%

    Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million people:
    U.S. 71
    England 14
    Canada 18

    Percentage of seniors (65+), with low income, who say they are in
    "excellent health":
    U.S. 12%
    England 2%
    Canada 6%

    I don't know about you, but I don't want "Universal Healthcare" comparable
    to England or Canada .

    VERY INTERESTING! the percentage of each past president's cabinet who had
    worked in the private business sector prior to their appointme nt to the
    cabinet.

    You know what the private business sector is... a real life business,
    not a government job.

    Here are the percentages.

    T. Roosevelt........ 38%
    Taft...................... 40%
    Wilson ................. 52%
    Harding.................49%
    Coolidge.............. 48%
    Hoover............ ..... 42%
    F. Roosevelt......... 50%
    Truman.......... ....... 50%
    Eisenhower........... 57%
    Kennedy.............. 30%
    Johnson................ 47%
    Nixon.................... 53%
    Ford..................... 42%
    Carter................... 32%
    Reagan................. 56%
    GH Bush...... ........ 51%
    Clinton ................. 39%
    GW Bush............. 55%

    And the winner is..............Obama.................
    8% !!!

    Yep! That's right! Only Eight
    Percent!!!..the least by far of the last 19
    presidents!! And these people are
    trying to tell our big corporations how
    to run their business? They know what's
    best for GM...Chrysler... Wall
    Street... and you and me?

    How can the president of a major
    nation and society...the one with the
    most successful economic system in
    world history... stand and talk about
    business when he's never worked for
    one?.. or about jobs when he has never
    really had one??!
    And neither has 92% of his senior staff
    and closest advisers..! They've
    spent most of their time in academia,
    government and/or non-profit
    jobs....or as "community organizers"

    Well, it was Clinton's administration that wanted to loosen the rules to make home-ownership available to people who couldn't ultimately afford it. :? We saw how that affected the economy.

    actually that noble effort was not the problem...the problem was GREED by the banks and all the assholes trading the mortgage backed securities
