Do you think perhaps Our President-elect's overwhelming victory and the Democratic Congress might have sent a message to George W. Bush and the Republican party that perhaps they've been screwing up the country for quite a while??

You better believe it.

I know that they have turned a LOT of federal agencies into running them like a business...that's not necessarily good..

Actually, it was the democrats who caused the financial crisis in the Clinton era with the Financial Market Modernization Act of 1999 which deregulated the financial market. Also, the democrats in the senate filibustered all three attempts by the republicans to repair the damage. Bush tried in 2004 and McCain sponsored a bill in 2005. Democrat senator Ted Kennedy said that the republicans were “fear mongering” and the “financial market is fine”.

By the way, change is not always for the better.

like the ones sent to the dem in what was it 02 or was it o no




and the dems had control of congress already

the republicans have not been in control

that is the propaganda talking

just the way it is

if the dems are really for the people they will repeal the anti terrorist act and the patriot act for stsrters

one from each party there

and you think the dems care about you

neither of them do

they impower the federal reserve they are the ones really in power (guess whos father was on the original fed res board [hint he used to be president] and guess who's grandfather was on the first fed res board)

wake up wake up

as lita would say

this is your wake up call

Now how is it that THIS 21 yr-old actually knows what's behind all the media hype? I'm doing my best to be optomistic, but when the s__t hits the fan, all you misled followers of the "Obamanation" will get to hear the rest of us say "told you so."

When everything is complete s h *t, shouldn't change be more than welcomed?

Guess who loves deregulation? McCain.


Also, remember Keating 5?

Hmmm....I thought the last time that the Dems had control was in 94.

Republicans became the majority party after the 1994 elections. They've remained the majority party since then.

Well lets see..Republicans had control of congress from 1994 to 2006!!! So they are not beyond blame!!! I guess if you really wanted to blame someone it would be the Republican congress..Hmmmmmm

the 55 and half million people that voted republican says otherwise.....Obama got 62 and half million votes. A nation still divided...

This is the first time in decades that a presidential candidate obtained both the popular vote AND electoral vote.

I don't see that as being so divided.

How could it get any worse? Who authored that piece of legestlation u speek of? Oh, none othere than Mc2olds Crony, Former Sen. Phil Gramm!!

so it looks like we had about a 60% voter turnout. Obama got a little better than half of that.

so about 30% of the country voted for Obama

interesting

This is the first time in decades that a presidential candidate obtained both the popular vote AND electoral vote.

That says something!!

With the bills that bush and mccain presented, what else were they trying to push through on the backs of them? I garuntee they tried to get something else pushed through in the same bill that caused it to get overturned.

for example, would you approve a bill that required all our troops to be brought home within six months to a year, if that same bill also required a mandatory 10% income tax increase?

It does! I am extremely happy about the outcome.

Aye does say someting...

However 52% vs 48% is NOT an overwhelming victory.

Overwhelming victory is 2/3rds or better. Ain't no one got that in a long time.

Tells me they is all the same...

Considering that a large number of people in that 48% did not vote for Obama because he's black (and, yeah, I know some), it is a great victory, IMO.
