Barack Obama to admit mistakes in first State of the Union address

[ColdCase]

Is where you live on the planet earth?

So one dimensional of you......a shame, really!

not one dimensional, realistic.

[ColdCase]

not one dimensional, realistic.

So you say. I'm happy you have convinced yourself, but what's realistic is that expecting to repair eight years of irresponsible
governance in one year with a Republican party hell bent on obstructing his every move ( for dubious reasons ) is one dimensional in my book.

But hey, you're brimming with self confidence, so I won't try to burst your bubble too too much.

[bluffmanxx]

first of all, you can't blame all the problems on 8 years of GWB. to do so results in a loss of credibility. at least be a bit more accurate and say that the problems had built up over several past administrations (both democrat and republican)

fyi, bush tried to pass legislation to change regulations that impacted the financial crisis but was "obstructed" by democrats, so how do you place blame on him and give obama a pass because of obstructionist republicans??

The Bush bashing is just plain fuckin old news. Bush made his share of mistakes, as did Clinton, as did Bush Sr., as did...as did...as did...as did...The Dem-Dummies tie up the Re-Pukes, The Re-Pukes tie up the Dem_Dummies, it'll never change. The radical right hates the ALL the left, the radical left hates ALL the right.

I have decided to become an equal opportunity political hater!

But some here, if they unable to blame Bush, go into Lewis Carroll mode.

The United States Of America is in better shape now then it was a year ago..... take your blinders off....it might help.

Only one dimensional minds do not consider 'history' as a component of the whole.

Just because people have short memories or like to go directly into 'denial' phase doesn't change things.

Here's a comparison: It's going to take 2 years to clean up Haiti before starting to rebuild.

The Bush debacle ( ok we'll take it back to Reagan's Trickle Down bull pookey) is the eathquake. Obama and his peeps is the clean-up crew.

Sit back....zip it...and give it another year at least before puffing up with all this self righteous poopomondo!

Ummmmm...yup, the banks are handing out bonuses like it was Christmas day, car dealers are back on their feet a bit, as are the manufacturers...and why is that, ohhh yeah, my taxes are up and my pay is down 40%, my house is worth 75 k less than a year ago...yup, that's just a fanfuckintastic recovery.

All of what has happened is not the fault of any Dem-Dummie or Re-Puke Prez, congress or senate, but a collective fault of us for putting them in office and not voting them out, and them for taking advantage of a system that lends itself to no accountability except getting re-elected.

A RECOVERY (of this magnitude.....U WERE ON THE BRINK OF FINANCIAL RUIN) takes time.......A year.... a fookin' year is not enough time to start bellyaching!!
