Nouriel Roubini how george bush got us into this debt mess.

Quote from trefoil:

Rick Perry called for Texas to secede. It's not treason to say stupid stuff like that, but it is correct to call it treasonous talk. Certainly stupid and irresponsible talk, but these days, the right gets to say all kinds of unbelievably stupid and irresponsible things, and no one takes them up on it because they've got the entire media cowed.

Please show me an example of this, while i dont deny Perry may have said this, i would love to hear the actual example so i know for sure.

Quote from trefoil:


Number two, what I posted was meant as an example, specifically, of Obama's intelligence. Also his judgment. It was actually a discerning judgment call, given that you could easily argue that the clause in the 14th being cited gave him a kind of veto over allowing the Congress to drive us into default.

If following the constitution is how you judge a presidents competence, you must have been incredibly mad when Obama got us into a war with Libya, which congress did not vote on, he also created Obamacare, and went against the constitution in both of those examples.

Quote from trefoil:


Bush, OTOH, went into Iraq and removed a secular leader Osama bin Laden enthusiastically hated, and who was also a useful buffer against Iran, an avowed enemy of the US for thirty years by now.
In the name of 9/11.
And the dumbfucks who voted for him believed it.

Indeed Bush was a complete tool, no argument from me on this one, but i find it interesting that you support Obama, when his foreign policy has been identical to that clown Bush.

Awright, not that I don't believe he'd be this dumb, but really, I need a credible source for this one. That can't be real.
It's fun to watch the political process these days, as the exact same part of the electorate that went for this drooling moron just decided Michelle Bachman is their fave. And another Texan dumbass, Rick Perry, is now suddenly making his way like a moth to a light to that same part of the electorate.
They don't get no dumber than those two. Well, except for the voters who go for these ridiculous caricatures.

Bush Describes Bailout Decisions As 'Difficult' When He Means 'Irresponsible'

It was a pretty popular video at the time.

Another one (citing from Ritholz' blog):

“Now, we’ve got a problem here in America that we have to address. Too many American families, too many minorities do not own a home. [...] Freddie Mac will launch 25 initiatives to eliminate homeownership barriers.” --Source
 
Quote from tradingjournals:

That is what I have been saying here on ET for a long time!

The idiots on ET want another Bush presidency. I bet they looked for his name in the last election, but could not find it.

Now that they realized that Bush is not running, they are looking for another idiot to elect.

exactly so they elected Obama who is continuing all of Bush's negative traits.

suck up to wall street. trillions on wars, runaway spending, crony capitalism etc.
