Bush lll really beat up President Obama in his speech and tied Hillary to him...

[DemocratSinceBirth]

I watched the entire speech...

It takes chutzpah to criticize President Obama after the ditch his brother left us in.

[H2O Man]

1. Respectfully disagree.

He attempted to "really beat up President Obama in his speech," but that is less likely to happen, than Pee Wee Herman beating up Mike Tyson.

7. Maybe, but it's red meat to his base

Beating up the Black guy in the Whitehouse will be a Republican staple for the next year.

[H2O Man]

8. Big deal.

His base is meaningless.

[pscot]

12. Oh. Well then

[DemocratSinceBirth]

13. His base isn't big enough. He has to expand it to win.

All we need to do is turn our base out.

[pscot]

15. I know we can't lose, but I'd feel more confident if the Republicans didn't control the Congress

the Judiciary, the Media and 2/3rd of the states.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

16. We can lose...Overconfidence is dangerous...

But I suspect any gambler whose only interest is the outcome would say they would rather have our hand than theirs...

[pscot]

17. You got me there

2. that will hurt in the regular election

even if it helps in the R primary

[Thinkingabout]

3. To think we forgot so quickly, of course it fits the FOX set.

I don't think Hillary has difficulty being tied to Obama. Guess Hillary will have to point out the condition Bill left the nation in and where Bush was leaving the crap on Obama. Yes we could talk about failures of W time, Iraq invaded without cause and the big deficit Obama had.

4. Let's compare them, shall we!

Bush: born to wealth, has not worked one day in his life...has had everything handed to him, is the epitome of white privilege and every single action taken by him as an adult has been to enrich himself regardless of the harm to others.

Obama: born poor, worked his ass off in school and as a community organizer. Achieved everything the legal and proper way, not the way rich pampered pukes do it. Has been easily one if the 5 best presidents of all time.

So, bush, if I was you, i would shut the fuck up.

Like Carlin said, we dont even capitalize your family name anymore, you dont deserve it.

5. I look forward to HRC defending the Obama legacy.

6. + 1 million

9. What part of outsider campaign are you missing?

This is like campaigning 101...

but hey, whatever.

[applegrove]

10. The GOP'S favorite son is already building his narrative

on bull****. Obama is in no way responsible for the long recession and did everything possible to fix W's mess, and he was stopped at every turn by the GOP.

11. sorry, i meant to start a post with this.

14. His speech was directed at a small....

Group who already don't like him. He is going after a group of very conservative and active voters. They love the red meat as we often do. It is how he plans on winning their primary. Compassionate conservative Bush will show up if he wins.

Most people haven't forgotten. It really was amazingly fucked up when Bush left office. People who never cared about government other than paying taxes all of the sudden cared and we're watching. Even those who supported the bailout were sickened by it. Multiple wars with little thought in direction or care. An economy in ruins. The list goes on.

Now here is Obama. While the economy hasn't been fundamentally changed, the broke system is night and day better than when Bush left office. The expansion of civil rights in the federal government, elsewhere, and a voice for positive change at the highest level of government that had been missing completely. Millions more Americans have health care, exchanges available in places, additional regulation on the industry; all saving Americans lives.

I truly think Americans overall haven't forgot where we were. We, as a whole, have done a good job of making sure that mans name will always be linked with those times. All of our candidates would be proud to be tied to Obama.

18. The populace of this country has shown itself to be pretty damned dumb

but I can't believe it is dumb enough to put another member of the Bush Crime Family into the WH.
