Well, they don't help themselves by making their leaders dress like the
bad guys in science fiction movies, do they? The church hierarchy's
continued presumption of moral authority in the wake of revelations that
the Church enables paedophilia, promotes AIDS and shelters terrorist
suspects is disgraceful. In the 19th Century, when Western Europe and
America were busy creating modern secular democracy, the Papal States
were still literally burning heretics in Italy. Nobody should have been
surprised that they were so amenable to the Nazis. The good news is that
the Church no longer has any meaningful claims to secular authority
outside their own little Mussolini-endorsed tinpot theocracy. If they
did, the poor bastards under their control would no doubt still be
living in a thirteenth century nightmare state.

Even the ultra conservative, Obama is going to destroy us and take everything away from us, guy I work with now and again admitted to me that there was no real difference between the two.

That, of course, was contingent on the GOP nominating someone
electable to run against him. Too bad.

Did FDR have the economy fixed three years into his first term?

Fixed - from all the damage Bush did to it.
When can we expect the hiring surge from
all those tax cuts for the wealthy he signed?

And he is right.
Whoever wins in November we can count on:
More bailouts
More military adventurism
More secret Gitmo trials
More Patriot Act travesties
More TSA travesties
More more tweeking of the tax code
More federal raids on MJ clinics
More Cuban Embargo
More military spending
More "too big to fail" mergers
More Corporate welfare
More subsidies to "faith based" institutions
More tax breaks for exporting jobs

Try again numbnuts
The Mortgage meltdown was a process started by the Democrats, and exacerbated by the Democrats over decades
Bush just happened to be in the White House when the meltdown occurred

There you go being stupid again
The tax cuts applied to ALL
You just demonstrated twice in a row that
1) you are ignorant
2) you are ideologically driven
3) wrong premises lead to bad conclusions

I always loved that right wing whine. Carter did it, and everyone paid their mortgages for TWENTY-NINE YEARS before suddenly deciding to default.

And Clinton.
After all, both had their hands in the pie.
Though to give Bush credit he repeatedly warned Congress of the looming danger when they may have been able to head it off.
They chose to ignore him. Republicans and Democrats alike.
Turns out he was right in issuing his warnings....so why should we blame him alone?

Who was president when the economy collapsed?
What president destroyed the budget SURPLUS?
Where are those WMD's we went to war over?
And who is still paying for that war?

The Bush Administration directed Fannie and Freddie to CUT their reserves just as the housing market was melting down.
NY Times, Mar 20 2008
By reducing the extra cushion of capital the two companies have been required to hold since 2004, the regulator, the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight, is enabling the companies to invest $200 billion more in home loans. In essence, the companies are being allowed to take billions of dollars that had been used as a reserve against possible further losses and invest that money now in the housing market.
But critics said that if the housing market continued to decline, the move could put the two companies on a less sure footing and ultimately require a huge taxpayer bailout.
"I think it's very dangerous and it's a sign that people are very frightened," said Thomas H. Stanton, an expert on the two companies who teaches a course on credit risk at Johns Hopkins University. "At a time in which finance companies are holding questionable assets and facing losses, regulators typically require more capital, not less."

Hello, McFly, those were the excuses used by the incompetent buffoon
to elected the first time.
The incompetent buffoon had his chance. He failed and continues to
fail miserably. He makes Jimmy Carter look like Einstein.

Religion has also driven men to create institutions such as libraries, schools, hospitals, hospices, great art and music.
Science has also given us great evil

That's as stupid a claim as blaming Bush for 9/11 a project started LONG BEFORE he became president
Just like the economy collapse was started LONG BEFORE he became President
Such childish arguments are worthy of.. well children..
> What president destroyed the budget SURPLUS?
What "budget surplus"
The false one claimed by Clintonistas ?
And how much economic damage was caused by 9/11, while you're at it
The shock and economic damage, both direct and indirect lasted much longer than the actual attacks

Get yourself educated

Everyone
Just like everyone pays for all the other wars before or since

Which means he promised he was going to.
Can't be held accountable for something you didn't promise.
