Sweetlou
Hey Faux News.. Wheres the Priceless ad for Bush?
Tickets to a Rangers Game $500
Cost of the Iraq War? 4500 US SOLDIERS LIVES and BILLIONS OF DOLLARS
Having ur fellow crooks rig an election? Priceless
My Mission
@Sweetlou----are you a member of the Obama youth program? Do you carry the Swastika banner and beat the Drum? Will you fight to the death for your Fuehrer? These are questions you will have to answer if you blindly follow?
Anonymous
Wow, so because Sweetlou raises issues you can't easily compartmentalise you just attack the man/woman senselessly with an ad hominem. While logical fallacies and non-sequitor arguments are abundant in American discourse, your response is even baser and more vile than the status quo.
You also reveal how reactionary you are and betray a lack of any critical self-examination; "Yeah, the Iraq War was fine, bring it up and you're a fascist!" Do you not have any introspection? None at all sir, do you not see how genuinely authoritarian that is?
Programs for education in civil and community service are incomparable to the Hitler Youth, if you can't appreciate the difference, I just don't know how I can convince someone other than a reasonable person vaguely familar with the historical record and basic observational and evidence gathering ability.
Also the left is far less uniform in support of Obama, the disagreements over policies in the Middle East and domestic issues for one.
Will
@My Mission --- has it dawned on you yet that the far-right conservative base resembles fascism far more than the left? How so, you ask? Well, you demand obedience to Judeo-Christianity. You all attack 'education' as liberal indoctrination. You demand nationalism and traditionalism, all while marginalizing minorities and those who disagree with you.

How many Americans are going to perish due to the anti-Christ exposing our defense systems, our intelligence gathering methods, our resources being converted into National Parks, etc.?
Put things into perspective, sweetie!

Sweetloe: I guess you missed Obama's 2009 Supplemental Appropriation's for Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan?
Obama keeps spending and spending and spending....Now China is going to cut up his credit card....but he keeps right on spending?? Has anyone told him the bill goes to the US taxpayer?? Well the Teaparties did and they keep telling him until he finally gets it....IF he ever gets it!....We need a GROWN-UP in the Whitehouse?? See you in 2010 :)
Jamie
Sweetlou, you're a comedian right? I'd laugh, but you just weren't that funny...
RICKinSanAntonio
Sorry, Sweetlou.
Obummer beat bush in every category (save the war, but give him some time)
Still believing that anyone rigged the election?
that's PRICELESS!
Ken
Once again, all of you are arbitrarily mad. Can someone tell me why there were no "Tea parties" for Bush's overspending? Why Fox News was DOWN PLAYING the deficits he was running up? Why Fox News would say "Oh well Clinton's surplus was bad because that means the government took too much money". But no, there was NONE OF IT. There were no protests, no tea parties, none of this venom from Fox News. So you know what? Take your "Dont Tread On Me" and "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death" platitudes and shove them up your ass. You dont care about "fiscal conservatism" until a democrat is on office. Every ONE of you are hypocrites.
Carol in MA
Ken: There was a Teaparty over President Bush's spending....That's why the Dems control Congress and the Senate...but that will change in 2010....a year to remember that ...it will be the year we FINALLY stop Obama and his sidekicks spending spree.and gave the power back to the people where it belongs!! :)
Chris4304
Ken - do you have a calculator? Oh wait..democrats can't add...that's right I forgot that. Odumbo will have outspent every OTHER PRESIDENT COMBINED. But hey you left wing whack jobs think that is okay!! Wake up dude...get off the kool-aid. Pretty soon when Odumbo is done you won't be able to afford that 30 cent package of koolaid!!! hahaahaha..Democrats are done!! Pelosi is making sure of that!!
RICKinSanAntonio
Ken, you MUST be figuring out, after calling people moron's and idiots, you're not looking so swift, yourself.
Unlike paid-for ACORN "spontanious" demonstrations (Obama's bailout gave them $8 billion), the Tea Parties were grass roots, and took time to materialize.
And they could have been avoided if Obama had actually spend less than W. Instead Obama's spending coined the phrase,
"Trillion, the new billion!"
--- --- ---
Yeah, Ken. We're pretty pissed, just like anyone would be at anyone who is going to double again nthe national debt.
--- --- ---
We wanted change; but what we got was more of the same, and the worst of the worst.
RICKinSanAntonio
Simple. Obama has outspent Bush by trillions.
--- but don't get me wrong: Bush was wrong to do the first bailout. But BHO has taken it to a whole new level.
BHO is the new "The Donald".
To the GM CEO: "Your fired!!!"
You really must not watch Fox, because the Tea Party is angry at the Bush bailout, too.
Ken
Yeah they were so "pissed" at Bush's overspending on Iraq that they organized tea parties right? Then they were so pissed at his giving 350 billion away, they organized ANOTHER tea party right? Or did they come up with excuses like "Well democrats passed it in Congress and The House and spending whatever you want on war is ok." You are either a fiscal conservative or you arent. And guess what, there was NO PROTESTING under Bush, despite the fact that he had spent more than anyone before him. Why was that? Because the right cant stop apologizing for him enough, its f*cking disgusting.
Carol in MA

Yeah, after Pres. Bush spending like a drunken sailor, I guess we all should forget that, right?
RICKinSanAntonio
Hey, at least drunken sailors are spending their own money. And the Tea Parties were a grass roots effort, and they took time. BHO's taking over banks and insurance companies, and Chrysler and GM and firing the GM CEO --- gotta admit... prrrrretty extreme!
RICKinSanAntonio
Obama increased the debt more in 100 days than Bush did in 8 years.
Lenny
So, in your logic, Bush 'tortured, so Obama should torture 4 times as much. That I'd agree to.
JB
We know that, but is that a sufficient justification/argument for the historic spending spree that's now taking place? Move on. Bush did it, so Obama can do it. That sounds like the type of argument a child would use. Stop watching the media and think for yourself.
Independent
Agreed. He spent way too much. Now, Obama is spending more in just 100 days than Bush spent in 8 years!!!! Who cares if it is Bush or Obama?! It is our future and our country. Forget about left or right and start telling them to stop the spending!

"But Bush..."
Not excuses --- you got:
(1.) Presidency
(2.) Senate

===> You have to explain your OWN president; your own always-looking-back approach just makes you look like you have zero ideas and no excuses.
Frequent problem: Explorer often can't open FN video
FOXNATION WEBMASTER! When you attach a video like on this page, about 50% of the time I get this mesage: "Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site http://thefoxnation.com/politics/2009/05/15/priceless-ad" Is anyone else experiencing this? It happens almost daily, and I am on a high-speed line. I finally got though now, after about 10 tries, There is no way to contact the webmaster, so I am trying this.

Get a new computer. My Mac works great everytime. Maybe you could get Obama to get you a new one. Ha!

I bet your mac wouldn't do so well if I took a baseball bat to it. Just saying.

Thank you!! I thought my computer was going bonkers. I am still on dial up..can't get it in this "conservative redneck" (not calling anyone but me this name) part of california..so everything takes longer anyway!!
zlats
After never having a problem on any of our three computers, all three began choking on opening Attachments, video pop-ups, etc. I finally figured it out - in my case I had "upgraded" all 3 machines to Internet Explorer 8. Turns out Microsoft apparently knows all about this, even has an official "Fix It" utility (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/957700) which returns your machine to IE7. When I did that, oila!, all was well. Hopefully your issues are this easy.
Vinny Miletti
lol thats funny!
Ken
So when Bush spends more than any president before him, thats ok? Because I dont seem to remember any tea parties then. All I remember is people who didnt think we should be going to Iraq being called unamerican and all of those other mindless platitudes people on the right come up with. Why dont you take your own advice and love it or leave it.
HarleyDays
Yeah, but it took Bush 8 years to spend what it took Obama to do in 100 days....
Another first for the messiah.
Abu Bahkir
The fact remains that the Obama administration, within its first 100 days, has outspent all previous administrations COMBINED. That is reckless in any book.
jandrewj
simply a lie haha
Dumb Redneck
Ken, I have read what you say, the responses, and then your rebuttals. Bush's plan could not have passed without the Congress (led by the Democrats) approving it. Everyone was scrambling for political gain at the time. And now, they are spending like drunken sailors with the blessing of the new president. I went to a tea party on April 15'th, and I also watched several of the other tea parties and their open forums on youtube. Frankly, people WERE upset with Bush there, along with Obama, but the main focus of the protest was our Congress. People were fed up with both Republicans and Democrats playing their narcissistic political games. The tea party I went to was filled with people of all colors, cultural backgrounds, and race. It wasn't about hating anyone or even protesting, it was the first step for a lot of people who have never been involved in politics to get a taste for peaceful assembly and an opportunity to form a network for REAL and meaningful change.
Dumb Redneck
jandrewj,
The massive spending started with a Democrat president and a Democrat president, continued until we had a Democrat President and a Republican congress, continued on as we had a Republican President and a Republican Congress, then REALLY took a leap after the shift you described in 2006 when we had a Republican President and a Democrat congress. The greatest amount of spending happened with DEMOCRATS in the congress. Now, that the Democrats have it all, they have put together a plan for spending that outdoes ALL of the previous administrations combined, and that DOES include what Bush spent. Yeah, it pissed me and others off when bush offered the bailout plan, and that is when the grass roots movement for the tea parties started. We were talking about it even before Obama was elected, but it would have been foolish not to see who the next president would be, or what he would do before we acted, wouldn't it?
RICKinSanAntonio
Redneck,
You're making tons of sense. I was there on April 15, too. If Bush had been spending like this, and taking over sompanies, we'd've been after him and his congress. But the man at the top is BHO --- and his Congress.
--- --- ---
BOH and company doesn't have to explain Bush's spending, but they do have to explain their own, and the census grab, and the corporate power grabs.
--- --- ---
The voters don't like it. People are wondering WHO will be taken over next.
jandrewj
The congressional shift wasn't until 2006 and after that it was a fight for Congres and the President to agree on anything. But that aside the massive spending started with a Republican Congress and a Republican President.
J. Mezo
But Bush, But Bush, But Bush, But Bush, But Bush, But Bush, But Bush, But Bush, But Bush, But Bush, But Bush, But Bush, It's getting old already, this was all there when Obama applied for the job. It's his butt NOW.
CHIP THE DOG
I MADE A LOT MORE MONEY UNDER BUSH THAN UNDER CLINTON AND NOW I HAVE VERY LITTLE WITH OBAMA S0 WAS I GREEDY OR JUST MAKEN A OK LIFE FOR MY KIDS 12 AND 16 YRS OF AGE. NO HOME SALES NO LIFE . SO WHAT HAPPEN IF NO HOMES SELL I LOSE THANKS BARNEY FRANK AND THE DEMS. THANK YOU OBAMA AND CLINTON AND CARTER. JUST MOVE TO CHINA AND WORK FOR GM I GEUSS.

Bush's added national debt was a big problem (and frankly, there should have been more revolt). During Obama's campaign, he promised to reverse the debt. Instead, he has turned our national debt into a huge joke, adding trillions in less than 6 months with trillions more in debt to come.
One of the reasons people are turning against Obama, his taxation, his debt and his agenda is because he is proving to be a Marxist. His anti-capitalism agenda is motivating people who love what this country has stood for... individual feedom, which they believe is at stake.
One last note, could he be any deeper in the unions pockets?
RICKinSanAntonio
...and don't forget ACORN!

Ken,
So you agree that what Obama is doing is not alright?
Vinny Miletti
First of all, there were outcries about Bush in September 2008. I clearly remember arguments from other conservatives saying things like "I didn't vote for this", do you know how many of us didn't want those bailouts! Second, if you look at the vote of the senate, Resolution H.J. Res. 114- authorizing the use of force in Iraq.. it was 77 yea to 23 nea, with an awful lot of democrats on there.. so remember, the dem's wanted to go in Iraq too. 3rd, the timing was right for the tea parties, Obama spent more in the first quarter of 2009 then the entire middle east conflict.. which stands at about 600 bil.-- had he not done that, there wouldn't have been this uprising for the tea parties. It's funny because when you libs bring up Bush in your arguments, you evade the fundamental question of why the spending caused an outrage. Feel free to reply to Vinnydabod@aol.com.
independent
Well...Considering that Obama in his short time in office has pledged to spend more than Bush ever did in his eight years....wait, more than Bush and Clinton combined.....wait, more than Bush Clinton and the previous Bush combined.....wait more than Bush, Clinton, the Previous Bush, Reagan....all the way to George Washington combined, I would say yes, it is time to start telling him to stop. Yes, he has pledged to spend more than what all the previous presidents combined managed to spent. That is how big 10 trillion dollars is!!! Besides, the fact that people did not complain when Bush was spending is no reason for us not to complain now, especially since Obama himself has declared that our debt is unsustainable.
Anonymous
What? That doesn't even make sense. You said that Zionists launched communists revolutions all over the world in some Zionist plot to I'm not sure what, I pointed out that communists were virulently anti-zionist for the most part, at which point you quoted a dubious Churchill article from the 20s that doesn't have outside verification. Again, what is that supposed to... oops, wrong comment thread, bye
