mudrose is a big time lair and has been since he started spreading his cr*ap around in here. He has even less credibility then Karl Rove.

This fellow is dishonest.

If the Clinton years had been an economic disaster, mudrose would be blaming Clinton"s policies, and only Clinton"s policies, for it. Period. Case closed.

Alan Greenspan, lifelong Republican, credits Clinton" deficit-fighting economic policy for much of the success he enjoyed, calling that policy "an act of political courage."

It"s bettter to pimp Iranian nukes as a pretext for another useless war ?

[mudrose-2009]

Unless there"s a nuclear war, the world stock market will allmost ccertinly make seady progress upwards, even if Michael Jackson is President.

It"s higher under Bush than it was under Clinton, and it was higher under Clinton than it was under Reagan.

It does help matters along when a Bill Clinton is President, and gives us the first post-WWII budget surplus.

Surplus accumulated all on its own with the dot.com and faded all of its own with the dot.com bubble bust. Clintoid was the benefactor of Regan/Bush. And After Clintoid, Bush was the benefactor of Clinton recession and 9/11.

Hillarygrl,

We maintained those precences you mentioned after ceasefires were achieved, after hostilities had ended, and only after we had secured a decisive military advantage in the theater which created the conditionds necessary for reconstruction to occur and for the governments and economies to be rebuilt. Those conditions have never existed in Iraq and won''t so long as we are there in a combat role.

Iraq is a guerilla war, the others aren''t. Secondly, to say that we have a presence in Japan that''s any more substantial than the continued role which Democrats are proposing for Iraq is not credible.

Most of our troops in that theater are in Okinawa, not the mainland of Japan. Obama is proposing taking troops out of combat in Iraq and redeploying to Afghanistan and Kuwait. That''s still in theater but not in direct combat.

The Iraq mission and the planning were flawed from the start by the civilian leadership and there''s nothing nobile or patriotic about continuing to send our young men and women into a meat grinder for which there was never any planning or true national crisis involved.

Whne we could no longer see the light of day in Korea and Lebanon, Eisenhower & Regan had the sense to pull back. When we couldn''t accomplish our goals in Desert Storm by continuing to Baghdad, Bush #41 had the good sense to listen to Colin Powell and pull back.

McCain, like Bush, does not have the same good sense.

Seady indeed, and steady too.

Unless there"s a nuclear war, the world stock market will almost certinly make steady progress upwards, even if Michael Jackson is President.

Magna C*um Laude -- top 5th of the class academically.

(It"s annoying that a perfectly good Latin word has to be edited like that to avoid the censors.)

"If you can prove that his "magna c*um laude" honors when he graduated from Harvard Law School..."

[mudrose-2009]

Wall Street began the second quarter with a big rally Tuesday as investors rushed back into stocks amid optimism that the worst of the credit crisis has passed and that the economy is faring better than expected. The Dow Jones industrials surged more than 300 points.

Oops another Surge that''s working!

"Barack Obama got where he is by having people hand him things on a silver platter. There are a lot of people as smart as Obama who were never offered the things Obama has been offered."

That"s a lie and you know it.

If you can prove that his "magna c*um honors" when he graduated from Harvard Law School were fraudulent, that some higher-ups doctored his academic record, you will win a Pulitzer Prize.

But it isn"t true.

Just gettting admitted to Harvard Law School is a distinguished honor, when you don"t have any relatives in positions of power.

"Hillary''''''''s heroic liberation of Bosnia"

Typical, just like Obama, his supporters change what actually happened when they speak.

You saw it too. Wasn''t it historic. I believe 60 minutes covered it. She was brave. She was virile. And Chelsea-girl Amazing.

McCains age is not an issue. His senility is.

Oreo''s age is not an issue either. His inexperience is.

[smiley676]

Barack Obama rose to high academic distinctions by the sweat of his own brow, not by his pedigree.

Hillarygrl,

It isn''t Obmaa''s claim that McCain wants to stay in Iraq 100 years, it''s McCain''s claim. He said it. It was in the news. It''s on videotape just like Hillary''s heroic liberation of Bosnia.

Secondly, do you really think that someone running for President keeps up with what their Preacher is writing in the newspaper? Why should he care? Is he the Preacher''s caretaker?

I care what the candidate''s say and what people authorized to speak for the candidates say.

McCain had his hateful Preacher appear at a political rally to attack Catholics then refused to apologize for him. Obama has not invited Wright to speak at any rallies and has condmened his remarks.

He did the right thing while McCain has not. So where''s the outrage with McCain?

"Bill Clinton, after all his egregious scandals, ended his second term with a 65% approval rating. The best in modern times. Look it up if you don"t believe me.

The American people know what the bottom line is."

The only reply of the Right is to invoke their Eleventh and Twelvth Commandments:

XI: Thou shalt attribute all bad things that happen under a Democratic President like Jimmy Carter, to his own policies.

XII: Thou shalt attribute all good things that happen under a Democratic President like Bill Clinton, to other factors and circumstances he had nothig to do with.

That"s right. I"d probably support the candidacy of a Clint Eastwood.

And McCain was fairly dumb as a young man too.

If his father and grandfather hadn"t been Admirals, he would only have gotten into Annapolis as a dining hall cook.

"Jeremish"

That"s the third or fourth time I"ve made that typo.
