Congress, there is no excuse for not rying and letting congress fuck you it, which they did repeatedly with pork on the funding for Iraq.
Oh well , try this
Tony Blair was actually the one who planned Iraq, Bush was a will partner but the plan came from Blair.
He tried to save your sorry asses and you repaid him with outting him, and now you are over run by Muslims who have more rights than you do.

In retrospect I think that Iran and Iraq should have been left alone to kill each other off. But if the future was as clear as glass we would probably all be slicing our own throats. Had Saddam not gone into Kuwait the war would not have been fought.
The quality of life in Iraq was not bad before we went in and after reading an article in the national geographic written before the war it shows that at least he was not a religious whack job and was just a power hungry tyrant.
There are many people right now in the middle east with their fingers hovering and twitching above "the button" that is the big fear today. When one goes off they will all go off. Weather reports may have new meaning in the future.

I guess it's easier for you to believe that Bush lead the world around by the nose, but then how could that stupid mother fucker lead anyone? unless of course everyone he lead was way stupidier than him?
As it turns out Saddam wasn't a threat to anyone was he?, but hearing the GOP leading up to the invasion he sounded like the most dangerous man on the planet. I believe it was Colin Powell holding up the little vial of anthrax while waxing lyrical about weapons of mass destruction that we now know didn't exist.
The closeness of Iraq to the UK and the US has got fuck all to do with the invasion meathead, the invasion was all about:-
A - Oil
and
B - Revenge, the idiot son finishing off "daddys" dirty work.
Blair is a born again retard just like Bush, doing "Gods work". The UK was the only country of significance to follow the US into THEIR invasion of Iraq.
In the future stick to facts instead of Glenn Beck inspired chalkboard conspiracy bullshit numbnuts.

John Kerry and Al Gore are not GOP.
We have a representative Government, Bush had to go through Congress to act on Iraq.
You can't have it both ways bitch flake, Bush is either a complete dumb ass or He is the smartest Mother fucker the world has ever seen because the world followed him.
Tell the Kurds that Saddam wasn't dangerous to anyone. So much for your bullshit humanitarianism you phony fucker, throw away people so you can bash bush?
How many tons of yellow cake uranium did they send to Canada from Iraq again?

The GOP LIED DUMBASS. Even Adolf said "The bigger the lie the more people will believe it".
Who do you ultimately blame? The liars or the suckers who swallowed the lie?, trying to suggest the suckers are as much to blame as the liars is BULLSHIT.
"The world" did not follow Bush unless you consider the UK and the coconut republic of Timbuktu as "the world" nearly every country in the world was against the invasion of Iraq dickhead.
Bush is clearly not smart but some of the GOP are, well, smart enough at selling false bullshit to the congress and the people to engage in a war that had everything to do with securing oil resources and nothing to do with removing a tyrant.
If you don't see the connection between GOP oil interests and the invasion of Iraq you really need to pull your pinhead out of your ass for five minutes dipshit.
What saddam did to the Kurds in the early 90's was disgusting but there are things as bad as/if not worse going on all over the world today. Why hasn't the US intervened?
Hmmmmm......maybe because they haven't got any oil?

I admittedly feel sick at my stomach every time we put a Democrat in the White House. I take it as a personal loss. I know that's weird, and I'm not a very political person, but that matters to me.

A recession is defined as two or more consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth. This clearly does not describe the current economic environment. GDP is forecasted to be in the 3% to 3.5% range for 2011. The threat of a double-dip recession was something that was thought to possibly be in the cards for the future. Recent economic data has pushed the needle more towards recovery than a double dip recession. Employment numbers have been showing modest improvement as well as productivity numbers, corporate earnings and consumer confidence. The accomodative monetary policy, accompanied by aggressive fiscal policy, has definitely helped jump start the economy and staved off a financial collapse. You are correct in your statement that the price for recovery has been a dramatic increase in the level of government debt. However, because interest rates are very low, the debt service (the interest owed on the debt) is not out of line with historical figures. Essentially, we have borrowed from tomorrow to finance today. Unfortunately, there was little choice. If the government did not act decisively and aggressively the outcome would most likely have been much worse. If the ATM machine was no longer able to spit out $20 bills (because large numbers of banks were insolvent), then your friends and the american people would really understand what the goverment actions helped to prevent. You are correct in your concern as to what the future might bring. Loose monetary policy will most likely lead to another bubble in some asset class (e.g. real estate in an emerging market), inflation, higher interest rates and the prospect of higher taxes and austerity measures to deal with an increasing debt burden. The goverment's actions can best be described as taking the best of the bad choices offered.
How this financial crisis ends, will not be known for years to come and the causes will be argued for even longer. The severity of the worldwide economic problem dictates that the resoulution is not within the control of one man or country. The coordinated efforts of all the major countries and leaders is without precedent in history. The response, at this point, can only be considered a success given how close the world was to a total financial collapse. Stay tuned............
The people who suffer used to be lazy fucks, stupid fucks, and people who took financial risks (and lost, those folks usually bounce back). I don't have any lazy or stupid friends. Not one. My friends bust their asses, don't buy more than they can afford, and don't have huge amounts of credit card debt. We are all cheap bitches and bastards. If you live within your means, and work, you should be OK. THAT is the American Dream. Those are the people who are now suffering, from no fault of their own.
I'm not going to take the blame for the housing bubble bursting fiasco. I have a conventional mortgage, 80⁄ 20 so I don't have the added cost of PMI. No NINJA loan here. One person in my tiny subdivision DID apparently have a NINJA/Interest Only loan. He lost his house and FUCKED the 25 other homeowners. He personally cost me around $50K, mostly equity, in my home.
Our president DID NOT take the "only way out" of this mess. He took the easy way out. The bling way. You have to give him, and folks like him, some of the credit for causing this mess, too. ACORN mutherfuckers. They have been causing this shit for years, as far as the housing market breakdown, which was the major force in the Great Bank Fucking of the last few years.
As for the foreign/domestic trade import/export shit, I won't comment too much. I have a basic grasp of the concepts, but not a complete historical overview.
I enjoyed your guest post! I dig your wife. You got a good one.

I don't think it's weird because I'm familiar with it. I know someone who is a staunch Republican & a bigot. She cannot even say Obama's name without choking on it & no matter who it is, Democrat spells doom, she went into mourning when our president took office and that's no exaggeration.

Iraq is in an ideal area in the middle east for access to other countries such as Afghanistan, of course we are in Afghanistan to fight Al Quedda right? hmmmmmmm.....couldn't be Afghanistans location and the building of a new pipeline into the oil rich area of the Caspian sea could it? Hmmmmmm......
Did the GOP lie to Tony Blair about the WMD's in Iraq?, yep they sure did and our boy Tony bought it hook, line and sinker. So much so that he and his cronies "sexed up" an intelligence document to further support invading Iraq.
The GOP lied and Saddam was telling the truth? yep that about sums it up, the GOP said he had WMD's and Saddam said he didn't.
NOT ONE WMD has been found in Iraq, now you tell me meathead, who was telling the truth about WMD's?
