So Mr. Bush has an uptick in approval ratings.....
George W. Bush is trending on the Internet for a surprising reason.
A CNN/ORC Poll that recently hit yielded some very good news for the former president; for the first time since the months after his reelection in 2004, more Americans have a favorable opinion of him (52 percent) than an unfavorable one (43 percent).
Before you guys start celebrating, it would be wise to remember that most former presidents become more popular in the years after their administrations have ended.
Both Jimmy Carter and George H. W. Bush were widely disliked when their presidencies ended but are held in much higher regard today. More important, though, there is the simple fact that a president’s legacy is ultimately determined by whether Americans were doing worse or better after he left office.
How does Bush measure up?
1) He failed on September 11 2001
Who will disagree that the September 11 terrorist attacks were a defining moment of Bush’s presidency? As president, his foremost responsibility was bringing the mastermind behind those attacks—al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden—to justice.
Bush failed in this mission. Instead of prioritizing hunting bin Laden down inPakistan, where he was suspected of hiding (and where Obama promised to get him during the 2008 presidential election), In Dec. of 2001, OBL was hiding in Tora Bora, when orders came doewn to Secial Forces troops to let OBL's former allies the Mujageddin guard the passes into Pakistan... Somehow he escaped. So to make up for it, we invaded Iraq, a nation that had absolutely nothing to do with September 11.
In the process, He then went on to tell the press just six months after 9/11 that Bin Laden was not a top priority for his administration.
He significantly damaged America's credibility and standing overseas, and needlessly destabilized the Middle East in ways that we’re still seeing today. Including the creation and evolution of ISIS.
2) His policies caused the Great Recession
When Bush took office, he inherited a strong economy built by President Bill Clinton: unemployment had fallen from 7.3% to 4.2%, creating more than 22 million jobs in the process, and the median family income had increased by more than $6,000.
By comparison, the Bush presidency only managed to oversee the creation of 1.1 million jobs, by far the lowest of any president since Harry Truman, while income inequality expanded at staggering levels. The top 10 percent of American earners pulled in almost half of total wages, the most lopsided wealth distribution since 1917.
Although the economic stagnation became apparent very early in his first term, it didn’t turn into a full-fledged recession until the collapse of America’s financial industry in 2008, after which unemployment shot up from 6.2 percent in September (the month of the crash) to 7.7 percent in January (the end of Bush’s presidency). This was an average increase of 0.3% per month, finally ending in 2009 with a rate of over 10%!
When you Consider that Bush’s policy of Wall Street deregulation and hands off oversight was largely responsible for the reckless practices of the banks that brought the economy to its knees, it’s fair to say that this was one of the two most significant fiscal failures of his administration.
The other, of course, was his squandering of the Clinton budget surplus. When Clinton left office in January 2001, he bequeathed America with a projected $1.9 trillion surplus. By the time Bush handed the economy off to Obama in 2009, the Congressional Budget Office projected $1.9 trillion in debt, due largely to Bush’s $1.5 trillion in tax cuts to the wealthy, as well as the additional trillions spent on the aforementioned wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
3) His administration regressed American civil liberties to an unprecedented degree.
Peeling back the Bill of rights, creating "Free Speech zones" sometimes miles from the events being protested, brutally arresting journalists, vets and anyone not "Cleared" by th eparty attending speeches....
From torturing suspected terrorists in clear violation of the Geneva Convention to laying the groundwork for the NSA’s unprecedented domestic spying program, Bush’s post-9/11 legislative initiatives ultimately threatened American freedom more than Osama bin Laden’s schemes ever managed to do.
4) He bungled his response to Hurricane Katrina
Believe it or not, it isn’t that difficult for a president to effectively manage disaster relief after a hurricane: Lyndon Johnson famously mastered the aftermath of Hurricane Betsy in 1965, while Barack Obama’s response to Hurricane Sandy was so effective that it was erroneously credited for his reelection in 2012.
By contrast, Bush utterly failed when Hurricane Katrina wreaked havoc on the Gulf Coast in 2005—a subsequent report by the House of Representatives found that his administration disregarded numerous warnings of the threat to New Orleans, did not execute emergency plans, and neglected to share information between different departments that could have saved lives.
5) When it came to one of the biggest civil rights issue of his time, he placed himself on the wrong side of history
When future historians look back at the early 21st century, there is little question that they will view the campaign for LGBT equality as one of the major civil rights movements of the era. Yet not only did Bush fail to advocate on behalf of the LGBT community (despite his vice president having a lesbian daughter and his party being chaired by a closeted gay man, Ken Mehlman, during his second term), but he actively exploited anti-gay bigotry during his reelection campaign in 2004. This was particularly the case in states like Ohio, where its pull among so-called “value voters” played a considerable role (alongside racially based voter suppression, caging and outright fraud) in Bush’s winning that state—and with it, the general election.
None of this means that George W. Bush is a terrible or evil human being, or even that he set out to cause harm to the nation he professes to love. At the same time, no bounce in his approval rating can overshadow the damage that he did while in office. More Americans may like Bush than dislike him right now, but when his legacy is ultimately appraised, the final verdict will not be a kind one.

Creationist still thinks World is 6000 Years old, even after finding 60 million year old fossil
Ahhh, nothing like dyed in the wool willful stupidity!
Imagine the situation of a confirmed creationist, secure enough in his comical delusions to put his money where his mouth is, actively supporting a "creation science museum" -- Canada's first, in Big Valley, Alberta (it opened in 2007), devoted to the "science" of the proposition that the earth is 6000 years old -- who while digging in a basement in Calgary stumbles across the fossilized remains of five fish a mere 60 million years old.
Calgary Sun caption: "An assemblage of fossilized fish was recently found during the excavation of a basement in a new development in northwest Calgary, Alta. Five fish were found in a block of sandstone in the Paskapoo Formation -- a roughly 60 million-year-old rock formation that underlies Calgary and much of the surrounding area. The discovery was made by Edgar Nernberg. Photo provided by the University of Calgary"
Actually, for Edgar Nernberg there doesn't appear to be any problem. The discovery "hasn't changed my mind," he's told the Calgary Sun. "We all have the same evidence, and it's just a matter of how you interpret it. There's no dates stamped on these things."
Which prompted this from the Washington Post's Rachel Feltman:
No sir, no dates. Just, you know, isotopic dating, basic geology, really shoddy stuff like that. To be fair, I'm not any more capable of figuring out when a particular fossil is from than Nernberg is. I'd be one sorry paleontologist, given the opportunity. I've never even found a fossil, so he's got me there. But the science of dating fossils is not shaky -- at least not on the order of tens of millions of years of error -- so this fossil and the rocks around it really do give new earth creationism the boot.
But this can go down as one of the best examples ever of why it's downright impossible to convince someone who's "opposed" to evolution that it's a basic fact: If you think the very tenets of science are misguided, pretty much any evidence presented to you can be written off as fabricated or misinterpreted.
Even if you dig that evidence up with your own hands.

Robert's proves that Citizens United is just wrong.
Chief Justice Roberts Accidentally Reveals Everything That’s Wrong With Citizens United In Four Sentences
A 5-4 Supreme Court held in Williams-Yulee v. Florida Bar that states may “prohibit judges and judicial candidates from personally soliciting funds for their campaigns.
It was a small but symbolically important victory for supporters of campaign finance laws, as it showed that there was actually some limit on the Roberts Court’s willingness to strike down laws limiting the influence of money in politics.
Chief Justice John Roberts’s opinion for the Court in Williams-Yulee is certainly better for campaign finance regulation than a decision striking down this limit on judicial candidates — had the case gone the other way, judges could have been given the right to solicit money from the very lawyers who practice before them. Yet Roberts also describes judges as if they are special snowflakes who must behave in a neutral and unbiased way that would simply be inappropriate for legislators, governors and presidents:
States may regulate judicial elections differently than they regulate political elections, because the role of judges differs from the role of politicians. Politicians are expected to be appropriately responsive to the preferences of their supporters. Indeed, such “responsiveness is key to the very concept of self-governance through elected officials.” The same is not true of judges. In deciding cases, a judge is not to follow the preferences of his supporters, or provide any special consideration to his campaign donors. A judge instead must “observe the utmost fairness,” striving to be “perfectly and completely independent, with nothing to influence or control him but God and his conscience.” As in White, therefore, our precedents applying the First Amendment to political elections have little bearing on the issues here.
Most Americans would undoubtedly agree that judges should not “follow the preferences” of their political supporters, as they would agree that judges should not “provide any special consideration to his campaign donors.” But the implication of the passage quoted above is that members of Congress, state lawmakers, governors and presidents should provide such consideration to their supporters and to their donors.
The President of the United States is the president of the entire United States. A member of Congress represents their entire constituency. Yet Roberts appears to believe that they should “follow the preferences” of their supporters and give “special consideration” to the disproportionately wealthy individuals who fund their election.
Seems legit.... :-/

The conservative lie and wealth protection
"The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest excuses in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness."
--John Kenneth Galbraith
Galbraith nailed it. This rapaciousness is at the heart of everything a right-winger holds sacred. Just listen to Republican mouthpiece Rush Limbaugh ranting about how Obama's stimulus package is ruining initiative and punishing producers. He sees America as a place where it's every man for himself. We are not our brother's keepers (even though the Bible says we are and fundamentalist preachers pound the Bible at their congregations every week). And if businesses fail, workers get fired, families are foreclosed, people go bankrupt, and the nation falls into financial ruin...so what. It doesn't affect Rush and other wealthy Americans.
They have theirs; let others fend for themselves.
Who are these people Limbaugh calls "producers"?
They're not the rank-and-file workers because he hates blue collar laborers, especially unionists.
They're not the middle class which nearly got legislated into oblivion by Bush's tax cuts for the wealthy.
They're not the richest of the rich...most have inherited their wealth...or got lucky or have simply used their existing wealth to buy and sell enterprises and workers as if they were cattle; enriching themselves further at the expense of those workers, they have in fact produced nothing.
"Producers" is just an empty phrase used by the wealthy and their mouth pieces obfuscating the fact that all they are doing is trying to protect their own wealth.
In fact, that is the central motivation of all conservatives--protect what I have--.
That's why the wealthy want those who do not posess wealth to remain uninformed, divided, without representation, diverted by gadgetry, and sedated by religion. It makes the masses more pliable. And the idea that conservatives have convinced themselves that they are in fact, temporarily embarrassed millionaires makes the delusion complete.
Yet in their heart of hearts, conservatives are evolutionists. They know it's a jungle out there and only the wealthy survive. It's always been dog-eat-dog and every man for himself in American conservative dogma.
That's its ultimate hypocrisy. The conservatives who claim God is at the center of the American dream are the same conservatives who practice Darwinism in their daily lives.
All while ignoring or simply refusing to acknowledge the help, the support and the infrastructure they enjoy from the community and the society they are pretending not to be a part of.

Look at Obama Now...
Just as everyone finished putting Barack Obama out to pasture after Nov. 3rd...his ratings started to climb, people are looking at the economy in a different light, the troops are coming home...and a new vacation spot is coming soon, 90 miles away! Forbes Magazine named Barack Obama, "Greatest Economic President of Modern Times" And now? "The most admired man in the world" !...for the 7th year in a row!!
The GOP can take over Congress, Gerrymander their asses off, suppress voters, cut off health and/or welfare assistance to the poor...and then blame every ill in the world on the "Black Guy".
It's part their continuous Party standards of lifelong personal smear campaigns...a la Kennedy and Clinton Families....they'll call him whatever they want, depict him in the most derogatory manners, disrespect him publicly and privately. In fact Republicans and their pundits have organized the most massive Political Propaganda campaign of lies, hate, and distortions in American history!
Low Poll Ratings?
High unemployment?
Economy in ashes?
Forget the past decade, all of this began the day the Black Guy (TM) took office.
Republicans are currently in a political 7th Heaven...They keep crowing about their massive wins, even though it was the lowest voter turnout since World War 2, but just can't understand why no one really likes them.
The one thing they'll never understand...just like they've never understood the popularity of a Kennedy a Roosevelt or a Clinton...why does Barack Obama remain so damn popular?!?!
For 70 years, the Gallup organization has been putting out this Poll. 2014 was a sweep for Liberals and Progressives...Pope Francis placed 2nd, and Bill Clinton showed up at 3rd. On the Women's side, Hillary Clinton took top honors for the 17th time in the last 18 years, she was followed by Oprah, and rounded out by Malala Yousafza, the Pakistani girl shot for the heinous crime of attending school while female.
For those looking forward to another round of clown car elections...Hillary has been admired by more people and for more years than any other female in history...19 times!... 6 more than Eleanor Roosevelt!
Republicans, naturally will find every excuse in the world why the Gallup Poll came out with those results... From trying to discredit th enumbers, to declaring that long standing metrics are not valid for "THIS" president, plus you'll hear and see all these right-wing nutjobs looking for scandals or conspiracies under every rock. Including making them up out of whole cloth.
They'll continue their insults till he retires, and then some. Hate and ignorance go hand in hand...and they'll never understand why people like and admire a Kennedy, a Roosevelt, a Clinton or an Obama, who will always remain close to the hearts of so many Americans...while there's not a single Republican president since Eisenhower that is revered by the general populace..."Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton...the most admired Man and Woman in the World"?
Republicans hate that!
And that makes me giggle a little.

THIS is who's voice was heard because Democrats could not be bothered to vote
This is the level of intellect that chose out government because 68% of eligible voters could not be bothered.
This exchange took place on Nov. 5th:
David Bennett5:26 PM
The healthcare in the USA is Now rated 79th in the US.... Africa has better health care, the Government has bought so many bullets and hand guns that there's still a shortage of Ammo you can't find 9mm, ammo cause the IRS. Bought them all, the Obama care is so good the IRS is in charge of it, that's like having you're health care plan run by your local police department.
Gideon Money5:34 PM+1
+David Bennett Your tinfoil hat is on too tight. I buy 9mm ammo in bulk from several places as needed. There was a shortage about two years ago, but that is over.
You keep repeating the same crazy nonsense over and over again... No matter how many times you declare it, it will still be wrong.
Bill Polhemus5:46 PM
+David Bennett Think we can depend on Africa to come help us if the Ebola breakout happens?
Gideon Money5:48 PM
The Ebola breakout her in the US is over... Now that there is no reason to scare no info voters.
Scott Goins5:50 PM+1
Democratic propaganda! Don't fall for this junk.
Gideon Money5:53 PM+1
NO active cases of Ebola in the US +Scott Goins in what way is that "Democratic propaganda"?
David Bennett5:54 PM+1
+Gideon Money and you keep repeating you're bullshit, the only people that listens to you are the same morons that Gruber called stupid voters, you have you're opinion and I have mind, mine makes more sense since I have many friends, and there health care cost has skyrocketed a mother of one is paying almost 900.00 a month for one example.... 90,000 people alone in Florida lost their health care, go peddle you're bullshit with someone else, I'm not like this idiots who voted for a piece of shit! PS. Straighten you're Democratic TinFoil hat.
Gideon Money5:57 PM+1
Says the guy that believes the IRS bought all the ammunition in the world so they could enforce Obamacare.... Seems that EVERY single case of "My rates skyrocketed" has been a lie. Not a Democrat you ignorant twit!
Here is some data, which you will obviously ignore.

Aaron Joyner6:04 PM
Wow. I lost count as to how many times I have heard the ACA being referred to as government run health care. I also lost count as to how many times freedom is referenced when talking about the for profit health care.
David Bennett6:06 PM
Says the guy that believes the IRS bought all the ammunition in the world so they could enforce Obamacare.... Seems that EVERY single case of "My rates skyrocketed" has been a lie. Not a Democrat you ignorant twit!

Gideon Money6:09 PM
+David Bennett Why? are you cruising for a piece of ass? I don't swing that way, but props for being brave enough to come out on this forum.
David Bennett6:12 PM

Gideon Money6:16 PM
Does your wife know you like men? You should tell her, so you don't end up hurting her.
I forget, using proper English is threatening to you under educated yokels. When you guys lose an argument, you ALWAYS turn to name calling... You are so predictable.

I guess Grinders is a gay site, right, of course how else would you know. People know who's the real fag here, you're single that says he "likes women" if you love them so much why are single and Jerking off, at least I have a pussy to do that for me.
Gideon Money7:47 PM
+David Bennett I am not single. I have a wife and children, I do not want to hear about your mechanical sex toys. I am not into men. I'm sorry. I know about grinder because I do not live in a cave.

The healthcare in the USA is Now rated 79th in the US.... Africa has better health care, the Government has bought so many bullets and hand guns that there's still a shortage of Ammo you can't find 9mm, ammo cause the IRS. Bought them all, the Obama care is so good the IRS is in charge of it, that's like having you're health care plan run by your local police department.
Gideon Money5:34 PM+1
+David Bennett Your tinfoil hat is on too tight. I buy 9mm ammo in bulk from several places as needed. There was a shortage about two years ago, but that is over.
You keep repeating the same crazy nonsense over and over again... No matter how many times you declare it, it will still be wrong.

PS. Straighten you're Democratic TinFoil hat.
Gideon Money5:57 PM+1
Says the guy that believes the IRS bought all the ammunition in the world so they could enforce Obamacare.... Seems that EVERY single case of "My rates skyrocketed" has been a lie. Not a Democrat you ignorant twit!

Wow. I lost count as to how many times I have heard the ACA being referred to as government run health care. I also lost count as to how many times freedom is referenced when talking about the for profit health care.
