George W. Bush May Get Expressway Named After Him

beginning a partisan rift in our country that has no end in sight.



Are you serious?

Pretty serious :confused:

It could just be that there's more media now but it seems like the perpetual job of each party is to completely block and not negotiate with the party in power or to make the minority party irrelevant. And the hatred between right and left is more than just rhetoric now. I know partisanship has always been around, but it feels irreconcilable now.
 
I can think of several things to name after George W. Bush...but highways ain't among them...
AND idiots like you can't read or obviously think and definitely have NO Memories of what occurred!
These are the realities you choose to ignore! These events happened and nothing you can say can change it!

GWB will be considered by historians as one of the greatest Presidents who in spite of the following huge gigantic cataclysmic events larger and greater in number then ANY president had to face! NO president had ever faced the following:

1) Dot.com bust cost $5 trillion in lost market value.. this means every year for 30 years now starting in 2000 the federal revenue is over $66 billion written off against taxes owed.
How many people LOST jobs due to the bust??
According to the Los Angeles Times, when the dot-com bubble burst, it wiped out $5 trillion dollars in market value for tech companies. More than half of the Internet companies created since 1995 were gone by 2004 -
and hundreds of thousands of skilled technology workers were out of jobs.

2) Did YOU forget that 9/11 occurred and it cost $2 trillion over the next 30 years again $33 billion will NOT BE PAiD.. was that Bush's fault?
Jobs lost in New York owing to the attacks: 146,100 JUST in New York!!
Year 2001: September 11 Terrorist Attacks
The 9/11 terrorist attacks were the events that helped shape other financial events of the decade. After that terrible day in September 2001, our economic climate was never to be the same again. It was only the third time in history that the New York Stock Exchange was shut down for a period of time. In this case, it was closed from September 10 - 17. Besides the tragic human loss of that day, the economic loss cannot even be estimated. Some estimate that there was over $60 billion in insurance losses alone.
Approximately 18,000 small businesses were either displaced or destroyed in Lower Manhattan after the Twin Towers fell. There was a buildup in homeland security on all levels. 9/11 caused a catastrophic financial loss for the U.S.

3) $1 trillion in written off losses due to the WORST Hurricane SEASONS in history!
The worst Katrina made landfall in Louisiana as a Category 3 in 2005. It took 1,836 lives and caused $81.2 billion in damages. Andrew slammed into South Florida in 1992 as a Category 5. It caused 40 deaths and $30 billion in property damage. More than 250,000 people were left homeless and 82,000 businesses were destroyed or damaged.
Hurricane Katrina ALONE! Year 2005: Hurricanes Katrina and Rita
On August 25, 2005, Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast of the U.S. as a strong Category 3 or low Category 4 storm. It quickly became the biggest natural disaster in U.S. history, almost destroying New Orleans due to severe flooding.

Hurricane Rita quickly followed Katrina only to make matters worse. Between the two, more than $200 billion in damage was done. 400,000 jobs were lost and 275,000 homes were destroyed. Many of the jobs and homes were never to be recovered. Hundreds of thousands of people were displaced and over 1,000 were killed and more are missing. The effect on oil and gasoline prices was long-lasting.

400,000 jobs due to Hurricanes Katrina/Rita
145,000 jobs in NYC alone due to 9/11
300,000 jobs lost due to dot.com busts.

Almost 1 million jobs alone from those 3 events

4) Economic terrorist attack 9/18/2008 or how the world almost came to the end at 2pm on 9/18/2008!!!
Evidently the MAJORITY IF IDIOTS like YOU ,NEVER knew how close to entire collapse the ENTIRE world's economy was on 9/18/2008 when an economic terrorist attack occurred-- lead in part by George Soros!!!

On Thursday (Sept 18), at 11am the Federal Reserve noticed a tremendous draw-down of money market accounts in the U.S., to the tune of $550 billion was being drawn out in the matter of an hour or two. The Treasury ...estimation is that by 2pm that afternoon, $5.5 trillion would have been drawn out of the money market system of the U.S., would have collapsed the entire economy of the U.S., and within 24 hours the world economy would have collapsed. It would have been the end of our economic system and our political system as we know it.

Again all this happened and at the same time the MSM was bashing Bush DAILY!

But when it comes to Obama this same Bush Bashing Editor of NewsWeek.... Evan Thomas calls Obama god!

I mean in a way Obama’s standing above the country, above – above the world, he’s sort of God."

While I'm not going to argue with you on any of this, I find it interesting that you defend Bush due to all the hardships he faced, yet Obama is the Devil in disguise even though he faced even bigger economic obstacles after the housing and stock market crashes beginning in 2008. Oh the irony of it.

The Stock Slump of 2008: Wrecking Ball to Wealth

The wealth destruction went beyond stocks last year. Jeremy Payne, a senior vice president with market research and analysis firm S&P Capital IQ, estimates that about $10 trillion of wealth disappeared in the global housing market. Add that to the $7 trillion in U.S. stock market losses, another $5 trillion or so in equity losses overseas and the sharp decline in values of more exotic investments such as mortgage securities, and "we're probably looking at $25 trillion worth of asset price deflation," Payne said.

A) Obama DIDN"T have anything to do with the SLUMP .. Other then being the attorney for ACORN in 1995 decision that allowed unqualified people to get loans!
B) Don't you read?
Obama is destroying America! He has said he wants:
Higher gas prices. He wants to see electricity rates skyrocket! He wants utilities to go bankrupt. He wants 1,300 insurance companies out of business!
All of the above are his exact words.
Want me to prove it because I CAN.

That is what he is the devil incarnate!
Really are you that naive not to understand that Obama's objective is to change America to a socialist state!
Why else does he attack capitalism in the tax codes, the EPA rulings? The continual assault on our military and now the attack on the 2nd amendment!
This is not conspiracy but a plan!

YOU are just so naive.

Oh yea, I forgot, Obama is the "Communist" who is going to turn us into the USSR. The sky is falling, isn't it? And you're right, he didn't cause the slump of 2008; he inherited it, and it was much worse than anything Bush inherited.

Outside of the two wars, there really isn't much difference between Bush and Obama. You're a dunce to believe their is. That is why it is so comical that you support Bush and stand behind him 100%, yet you warn us of how Obama is going to turn the US into a socialist Nirvana. It's laughable.

If you really look at history (recent and older) I think you'll see that this is just your impression at the moment. Even if it were objectively so, a partisan rift requires two sides, right?
 
There's no doubt a back ALLEY in South Chicago, that's filled with drug addicts, pimps, gang bangers, and welfare queens selling their nasty asses, that has Obama's name written all over it.

Only question is, will it be Rham Emannuel who proposes naming that alley after that inept son of a bitch?

Doesnt change the fact that Obama is a communist. And there are significant differences between Bush and Obama. That doesnt make either of them any less progressive though.

Got any "credible" proof that would stand up to academic scrutiny?

There are always his books. But, unfortunately, I can't rely on you to read them.

I mean sure he wrote a book about the dreams he recieved from his communist father. His mother, grandparents, mentors, Spiritual advisors, and teachers were all communist. He sought them out after all. He said so in his book. Nevermind that he has avowed communists in his administration. And the fact that he's never turned away from any of it or even claimed to have a turning point away from communism.

But no, all those facts wont be credible to you. In fact, you're going to pretend I don't have any anyway, so why even pretend you care?
