Democrats Suck Significantly Less
Clinton was a dirt bag, but in the midst of his impeachment, he listened to Richard Clark and bombed a site alleged to be a training camp at which Bin Laden was thought to reside. For that, he was ridiculed by Republicans as trying to turn the focus off of his own problems.
He was a dirt bag, but he didn't sell the moment as Repukes did.
American forces were quickly deployed to Afghanistan, but before they even set foot, Bush and his cabal saw the opportunity to get the American people behind an attack on Iraq. Spewing false intelligence with a silver tongue, he drove us to war against the man who tried go kill his Daddy. An estimated one million Iraqis have died as a result.
Campaign Obama promised to pull out our forces from Iraq and leave a support force of 50,000 in place this fall. It wasn't a promise liked by Liberals, but it's exactly what he did. He promised to step up our forces in Afghanistan, saying it was where we should focus during the war on terror. Liberals don't like it, but it's what he promised, and it's what he's done.
George Bush went on live television and pretended search for WMD under his desk, as if the entire reason for going into Iraq and wasting our service men and women's blood was a joke.
Obama gambled $700 billion of debt to save us from another great depression. He promised to track where every dollar went. He pushed banks to provide loans at reduced rates and for less than the original loan amount; while a huge percentage of people have still lost their homes, at least two of my closest family have had their loans renegotiated and have not lost their homes. Almost all of that $700 billion has been repaid to the American people. Timothy Geithner is a piece of scum, but the money he spent greasing the wheels of the industry he came from has nearly been repaid.
George F'ing Bush spent about the same amount, but no-one has a clue where that money went, and maybe 25 years from now we'll hear about which family friends benefited.
Democrats took congress in 2006 and immediately raised the minimum wage. It hadn't been raised since 1997, the entire interim period during which Repukes held the house and Senate.
Obama is called a socialist for saving what's left of General Motors. GM have since staged a comeback and people like Nutjob, who call the man a socialist in one breath for these actions, turn around and whine about the inability to get in some personal benefit from GM's IPO, the selling of which repays the debt Obama secured to save the company. That's some twisted mother F'ing whining logic if ever I've heard any.
The first things we're hearing as Repukes prepare to take congress is that we should stop government funding of NPR. What a mandate they seem to have pulled out of their a$$es.
Yes, Democrats suck. Bu they suck unbelievably less than Repukes. It's easy to forget how morally destitute their opposition is. It's easy to forget that one million lives have been lost for a Republican's personal vendetta (and an effort to secure Middle East dominance, a goal he actually moved us away from by he and his cabal's ineptitude). It's easy to forget that the Glass-Steagall act was put in place by Democrats (who had a spine back then) to keep us from falling into the same behaviors that led to the Great Depression; it's easy to forget that Glass-Steagall was repealed by a bill initiated by Republican senator Phil Gramm--you know, the guy John-Sell-Out-McCain hired as his financial advisor--and that we nearly suffered another less than 10 years after its passage.
So yes, Democrats stink and I hold my nose when I vote for guys like Bennet in CO, who hardly finished his acceptance speech before saying he was ready to sell out more national debt to give continued tax breaks to the wealthy. But I hold my nose and do it because their competition's carrion stench is so much more stomach turning.
