That's because you're young, they soured me a long time ago. :haha:

yep - I agree with xob - Carter did the same to me Pico.

Clinton did it for me, followed by Bush.

Clinton, but Bush restored it. Devouring undemocracies is just the best thing in foreign policy ever.

DanaC 01-16-2009 01:17 AM

Yeah. Shame about that indigestion eh?

We will need another 10 years to actually measure the impact. The immediate impact has been evident. I am not sad to see him go, but I am not completely happy Obama has taken his place. Congress is the real seat of power in this country and the current make-up is more worrisome than Obama.

I see Bush is dropping the down home cowboy facade and moving back to the idle rich social set.

Yeah, but now that stocks have tanked, even the rich are pissed at him. Heck, I'll bet the guys at the the yacht club are probably pumping their own marine diesel now.

TheMercenary 01-17-2009 06:05 PM

Heh. They are pissed at Bush for tanking stocks? :lol:

I thought he played the sax.

Reagan got shakey with it.

hmmm. Bush interesting. What a concept. I think he's just a spoiled egomaniac who gained way too much power, to the detriment of this country and the entire world. And while he may have expressed some disappointment about certain things in that interview, and admitted a few mistakes, he in no way took responsibility for the disaster that is the past 8 years. In fact, he has been out touring trying to rewrite history, or his-story. It is sickening. Too bad about all those damn videos ruining that part for him. :D
