If the Repubs had nominated someone competent in 2000, someone who didn't think it was a good idea to invade Iraq, someone who was a fiscal conservative and didn't think the taxpayers' money was his personal mad money, they'd still be in power today.

George Bush spent the country to the brink of bankruptcy and he spent the GOP right out of power.
Republicans took the wrong turn when they became as arrogrant as liberals and ignored Reagan conservatism

If Iraq was such a msitake, where are the Dems and liberal media on the issue. the fact is the US has won in Iraq - much to the dismay of the left

Look at the Dow since Obama won - it is down 15%. Obama and Dems will still raise taxes, increase spending, try to shut down conservative talk radio, expand government, and maybe take away of 401K's

Now there is talk about investagations of Pres Bush AFTER he leaves office

Yes, GW Dems are going to do the saem thing they alwasy do when they have power - they will let it go tot heir heads
