And people loved him for it...

Seems to me, that would make him one of the best Presidents in our lifetime...

Wow. I forgot how upset consertives were that Osama was finally killed under a liberal Democrat instead of one of your chest-thumpin', macho-man conservative Republicans. That really got under your skin, didn't it? Hilarious.

I will remember Obabble more for our Libyan ambassador who was killed under the morons watch....THAT got under my skin. Meanwhile GFY. (Good for you)

Hummmmm ..... It got under your skin that an American ambassador was killed on Obama's watch. Hummmm.... Below is a list of the embassy attacks under bush along with a listing of the numbers killed.
WHY DIDN'T THESE GET UNDER YOUR SKIN?
January 22, 2002. Calcutta, India. Gunmen associated with Harkat-ul-Jihad al-Islami attack the U.S. Consulate. Five people are killed.

June 14, 2002. Karachi, Pakistan. Suicide bomber connected with al Qaeda attacks the U.S. Consulate, killing 12 and injuring 51.

October 12, 2002. Denpasar, Indonesia. U.S. diplomatic offices bombed as part of a string of "Bali Bombings." No fatalities.

February 28, 2003. Islamabad, Pakistan. Several gunmen fire upon the U.S. Embassy. Two people are killed.

May 12, 2003. Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Armed al Qaeda terrorists storm the diplomatic compound, killing 36 people including nine Americans. The assailants committed suicide by detonating a truck bomb.

July 30, 2004. Tashkent, Uzbekistan. A suicide bomber from the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan attacks the U.S. Embassy, killing two people.

December 6, 2004. Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Al Qaeda terrorists storm the U.S. Consulate and occupy the perimeter wall. Nine people are killed.

March 2, 2006. Karachi, Pakistan again. Suicide bomber attacks the U.S. Consulate killing four people, including U.S. diplomat David Foy who was directly targeted by the attackers. (I wonder if Lindsey Graham or Fox News would even recognize the name "David Foy." This is the third Karachi terrorist attack in four years on what's considered American soil.)

September 12, 2006. Damascus, Syria. Four armed gunmen shouting "Allahu akbar" storm the U.S. Embassy using grenades, automatic weapons, a car bomb and a truck bomb. Four people are killed, 13 are wounded.

January 12, 2007. Athens, Greece. Members of a Greek terrorist group called the Revolutionary Struggle fire a rocket-propelled grenade at the U.S. Embassy. No fatalities.

March 18, 2008. Sana'a, Yemen. Members of the al-Qaeda-linked Islamic Jihad of Yemen fire a mortar at the U.S. Embassy. The shot misses the embassy, but hits nearby school killing two.

July 9, 2008. Istanbul, Turkey. Four armed terrorists attack the U.S. Consulate. Six people are killed.

September 17, 2008. Sana'a, Yemen. Terrorists dressed as military officials attack the U.S. Embassy with an arsenal of weapons including RPGs and detonate two car bombs. Sixteen people are killed, including an American student and her husband (they had been married for three weeks when the attack occurred). This is the second attack on this embassy in seven months.

bush looked the other way when warned about al Qaida's desire to strike America. When 3000 were killed in the twin towers, why didn't that get under your skin?

When 4500 American soldiers died in a war based on lies about WMD that did not exist, why didn't that get under your skin?

When didn't it get under your skin when almost 1800 people died in the Katrina natural disaster because bush had appointed a political hack who was incapable of doing the job?

You will bitch and moan about the Ambassador and a few others being killed in Libya but you will shut your eyes to the almost 10,000 Americans who died because of the actions bush took. Then you will tell us that Obama is the worst president ever while ignoring what bush did to this country. Do you have even the remotest idea how stupid that makes you look?

I don't believe that Reagan was as 'great' as conservatives make him out to be. But this OP shows how shamelessly libtard trolls will lie.

LOOK UP THE INCOME TAX RATE REAGAN ENACTED AND THEN TELL ME THAT REAGAN RAISED TAXES ON THE MIDDLE CLASS, BITCH.

 

[Wyatt earp]

all I know during the Carter years I thought we were Fucked. But along came Regan and then we had great times thru Bush Sr, Clinton and Got fucked again. With Bush Jr and totally getting fucked up the ass by Obama. He is a wimp to the world and now China is trying to bully the U.S. over Air Space.. We totally need a Woman President like South Carolina's Nikki Haley

 

[JWBooth]

The all inclusive "in our lifetime" bit is questionable at best.
I was born at the end of Ike's term of office and my lifetime includes JFK, LBJ, Nixon, Ford, and Carter.
So, unless you were born after 1988, and lived on Mars after 1989 Reagan is hardly the worst. Only JFK can claim to be better, and the evidence for that claim is weak indeed.
Such a discussion must be limited by the understanding that what we are comparing are the relative equivalent merits of Capone v Giancana, Seigel v Luciano, Lansky v Lucchese.

Alright, I've seen enough of this little timeline. In most of those events, no Americans were killed, by my count no more than four Americans were killed in all of those events combined. When it says "people are killed" it doesn't bother to tell you whom. It is an attempt to appeal to irrational hatred. In Benghazi specifically, four Americans were killed, more specifically Ambassador Chris Stevens and his entourage. In all of those events listed, only one Ambassador along with his driver were killed. However, unlike Benghazi, help came promptly and facilitated a cessation of the violence. There were no stand down orders given. No conspiracy by the Bush Administration. To define the parameters of what a "Benghazi style attack" would be, a minimum of four Americans and one Ambassador would need to die.

Sigh. You can ask "Well only counting only the American deaths would not be a sound theory, what about the other non Americans?" Well, given that we as Americans naturally show concern for any of our countrymen working overseas in consulates and embassies, one can assume that we would be more concerned with their fates rather than the victims of other nationalities. The four men who died in Benghazi were all Americans, not of any other nationality. My reasoning? Let those countries mourn their dead, while we mourn ours.

So to say 10,000 Americans died in similar events is incorrect by itself. Not even that many died in either theater of the War on Terror, where only 6,778 Americans died as of this year. It is a patent mistruth. To say that Bush directly facilitated or helped play a role in them would also be a lie. It took 13 separate instances to kill four Americans under Bush, it took only one to kill the same amount in September 2012, under Obama's watch.

1) bush looked the other way when warned about al Qaida's desire to strike America. When 3000 were killed in the twin towers, why didn't that get under your skin?

Then you will tell us that Obama is the worst president ever while ignoring what bush did to this country. Do you have even the remotest idea how stupid that makes you look?

1) When Republicans repeatedly warned Obama that his healthcare law would result in millions of insurance policy cancellations, he turned the other way. Did that not get under your skin? When he lied that you could keep your doctor and your plan, did that not get under your skin?

2) When 5.5 million people lost their insurance because of Obamacare, did that get under your skin?

3) When didn't it get under your skin that Obama appointed a political hack (Kathleen Sebelius) who couldn't program one line of code to build a healthcare website, hmm? Did it not get under your skin when nearly 700 million dollars of taxpayer money went into building a website that didn't work?

4) You will bitch and whine that 5.5 million people do not represent a significant portion of the population, but shut your eyes to the real life implications this may entail. You'll shut your eyes to any wrong Obama may have perpetrated. You'll blame Bush and Republicans, say Reagan is the worst president of all time, and ignore what Obama has done to this country.

 

[WelfareQueen]

Excellent points, but he doesn't care. Obama doesn't care. No Dems care. The ends justify the means.

So 5.5 million people lost their insurance. Many of them will not get coverage by the 1st if the year, so what. Analysis says the average American will pay 41% higher insurance premiums and much higher deductibles....but that is okay also.

All that matters is the Government taking more control of your life and taking away more of your personal liberty. It is all about power and control. Period.

To define the parameters of what a "Benghazi style attack" would be, a minimum of four Americans and one Ambassador would need to die.

Sigh. You can ask "Well only counting only the American deaths would not be a sound theory, what about the other non Americans?" Well, given that we as Americans naturally show concern for any of our countrymen working overseas in consulates and embassies, one can assume that we would be more concerned with their fates rather than the victims of other nationalities. The four men who died in Benghazi were all Americans, not of any other nationality. My reasoning? Let those countries mourn their dead, while we mourn ours.

So to say 10,000 Americans died in similar events is incorrect by itself. Not even that many died in either theater of the War on Terror, where only 6,778 Americans died as of this year. It is a patent mistruth. To say that Bush directly facilitated or helped play a role in them would also be a lie. It took 13 separate instances to kill four Americans under Bush, it took only one to kill the same amount in September 2012, under Obama's watch.

I salute your patience in pointing out stupid claims by stupid people. TY.

Ronald Reagan was a great president.

The OP is full of it. We should all be proud of Reagan.


I like Obama, but don't think for a second that I dislike conservatives by default.

In my life time I thought Clinton did some very good things, Bush Sr. did some good things, Reagan as well. GWB was a good man who got us in a stupid war we had no business getting involved in. Obama has been terrible.

Whoever gets elected in 2016 we're due for a good one. Sixteen years of Bush and Obama have not been good for our Country.

Because their hatred and their bigotry and their ignorance makes them blind.
And I am still waiting for the fact sheet that shows how ronnie single-handed defeated the USSR.

I will remember Obabble more for our Libyan ambassador who was killed under the morons watch....THAT got under my skin. Meanwhile GFY. (Good for you)

Hummmmm ..... It got under your skin that an American ambassador was killed on Obama's watch. Hummmm.... Below is a list of the embassy attacks under bush along with a listing of the numbers killed.
WHY DIDN'T THESE GET UNDER YOUR SKIN?
January 22, 2002. Calcutta, India. Gunmen associated with Harkat-ul-Jihad al-Islami attack the U.S. Consulate. Five people are killed.

June 14, 2002. Karachi, Pakistan. Suicide bomber connected with al Qaeda attacks the U.S. Consulate, killing 12 and injuring 51.

October 12, 2002. Denpasar, Indonesia. U.S. diplomatic offices bombed as part of a string of "Bali Bombings." No fatalities.

February 28, 2003. Islamabad, Pakistan. Several gunmen fire upon the U.S. Embassy. Two people are killed.

May 12, 2003. Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Armed al Qaeda terrorists storm the diplomatic compound, killing 36 people including nine Americans. The assailants committed suicide by detonating a truck bomb.

July 30, 2004. Tashkent, Uzbekistan. A suicide bomber from the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan attacks the U.S. Embassy, killing two people.

December 6, 2004. Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Al Qaeda terrorists storm the U.S. Consulate and occupy the perimeter wall. Nine people are killed.

March 2, 2006. Karachi, Pakistan again. Suicide bomber attacks the U.S. Consulate killing four people, including U.S. diplomat David Foy who was directly targeted by the attackers. (I wonder if Lindsey Graham or Fox News would even recognize the name "David Foy." This is the third Karachi terrorist attack in four years on what's considered American soil.)

September 12, 2006. Damascus, Syria. Four armed gunmen shouting "Allahu akbar" storm the U.S. Embassy using grenades, automatic weapons, a car bomb and a truck bomb. Four people are killed, 13 are wounded.

January 12, 2007. Athens, Greece. Members of a Greek terrorist group called the Revolutionary Struggle fire a rocket-propelled grenade at the U.S. Embassy. No fatalities.

March 18, 2008. Sana'a, Yemen. Members of the al-Qaeda-linked Islamic Jihad of Yemen fire a mortar at the U.S. Embassy. The shot misses the embassy, but hits nearby school killing two.

July 9, 2008. Istanbul, Turkey. Four armed terrorists attack the U.S. Consulate. Six people are killed.

September 17, 2008. Sana'a, Yemen. Terrorists dressed as military officials attack the U.S. Embassy with an arsenal of weapons including RPGs and detonate two car bombs. Sixteen people are killed, including an American student and her husband (they had been married for three weeks when the attack occurred). This is the second attack on this embassy in seven months.

bush looked the other way when warned about al Qaida's desire to strike America. When 3000 were killed in the twin towers, why didn't that get under your skin?

When 4500 American soldiers died in a war based on lies about WMD that did not exist, why didn't that get under your skin?

When didn't it get under your skin when almost 1800 people died in the Katrina natural disaster because bush had appointed a political hack who was incapable of doing the job?

You will bitch and moan about the Ambassador and a few others being killed in Libya but you will shut your eyes to the almost 10,000 Americans who died because of the actions bush took. Then you will tell us that Obama is the worst president ever while ignoring what bush did to this country. Do you have even the remotest idea how stupid that makes you look?

How many Americans died in the attacks under Bush? How many of those attacks did Bush and or his administration outright lie about?

Were there more then the Benghazi attack under Obama's watch? The answer is yes. So for your BS apology for Obama to have any traction Obama should be getting criticized for all the attacks. He is not because Benghazi was different. It wasn't some fools setting off a bomb it was an organized attacks that lasted over a 7 hour period. Our men were left in a country we had just bombed the crap out of with little protection. Stevens was killed and dragged through the streets and the left can do nothing but pretend it never happened.
