Yeah.. seriously.
And if what he believes in is true... that the Bush administration should not be held responsible for the decisions and actions they made... then, why are we still going after Usama bin Laden and Al Qaeda? That attack occurred 9 years ago... according to The Godfather, we should just get over it already.
And I have a pretty strong feeling that after the Obama Administration is done, he will still be complaining about it's decisions and actions because of the future consequences that will exist.

Hail, Hail!!!
some of the people on here keep complaining about the Bush years..well I got news for you we have a new president and sense he's doing such a wonderful job the Bush years should no longer be a problem right ? just say'n....everybody needs someone to blame our problems on.
Godfather.
...
So... what you are saying is that you do not believe in responsibility? Or accountability, either?
In case of hit and run... the damage is done... get over it, right? You should quit complaining about who did the damage done to the car... or the bodily injuries incurred by it and just get it fixed.
I always thought that personal responsibility was a cornerstone of Conservatism... I guess doesn't apply to you, right? I mean, that's what you're saying, isn't it? There is no responsibility for actions and their consequences.
accountability???? such a foreign concept in politics!
don't compete; coexist
what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?
"I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." - Barack Obama
when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'
some one sent me this, do the stats seem accurate ? if so lets break out the fish bone chart and fix it.
A few things need to be pointed out -
Even if it were true about the US survival statistics, nobody dies in the UK or Canada for lack of health insurance, whereas 44,000 die every year in the USA. It's not the quality of health care being provided, it's the lack of access that's the problem.
Secondly, using the yardstick of having a lot of business people in government as some standard for success is ludicrous on its face. Last I checked, Bill Clinton presided over a booming economy and he scored near the bottom at 39%. So did JFK, and Teddy Roosevelt. And the top marginal tax rates under that infamous socialist Eisenhower were almost 90%.
Moreover, George W Bush, who scored second at 53%, not only ran the economy into the ground, but even before being President he ran 3 companies into bankruptcy too.
This is why the whole concept of "fiscal conservative" is useless:

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.
Nobody voted bush "in", he was put in cuz of his blood line. Presidents are NEVER elected by the people for the people but by who's bloodlines are "BLUE-er."
Hey godfather, maybe it's U that mite finally get it someday....fuck I'm so tired of saying it over and over again, there is NO democracy in America or in the world.

I wasn't trying to stirr up a argument I just thought that the stats given to me by a friend were interesting
if they were accurate, as far as health care change in the us goes I think it's a big sham for the insurance
companys to make even more money, not that I know this for fact but the bottom line will be the working class
paying more than we already do to help support the people that don't have insurance and with that in mind we know who the winner's will be..the insurance company's,maybe I'm wrong but like I said the bottom line is and always will be money.

Oh I'm completely with you on that. I just felt that the insinuations in that forwarded email were way off the mark - that a lot of Americans were surviving and getting treatment more easily than their counterparts in Canada and the UK, and therefore there was something much worse about the health care systems in the latter countries... when we all know that it's rubbish. (I even question the numbers cited there as accurate).
This new health care bill isn't particularly great... but it's a decent first step, I think.

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.
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"
and yet we are ranked #37 by the World Health Organization....behind all those other countries
Even Cuba is ranked ahead of the US by the WHO.
And I listen for the voice inside my head... nothing. I'll do this one myself.
Funny how nobody has anything to say about his 8% private business experience. :shh: :shh: :shh:
so what? What private experience did Clinton have? he was the only president we've had in the last 20 years that had a balanced budget
This.
I'll take a balanced budget and a blowjob over business experience.

Actually, I do not think I am, I just think that the private sector is very much the same as or own society. Society needs rule of law without it chaos would ensue, I am sure you would not argue with that as a general point. Well the private sector needs laws too in the form of regulations with a strong enforcement arm. Without regulation, portions of the private sector will continue to rape and pillage the middle and lower classes until we are all stricken into poverty. That is all I am saying we do not need to do everything for the average person but we do need to stop providing every advantage to businesses at our own expense. Is that socialism? If so….screw it count me in I’m a socialist!
