and HAVE made it work so far??? The evacuation plans apparently WORKED, and I was pleased to see Mayor Nagin being as forceful as he was!
Thank God for lessons learned!
Prayers and thoughts to all in that area, as well as the SE coast with Hurricane Hanna !

Why the Bush Bashing?
Your post is nothing more than that. Grow up, get a life that is filled with something other than hate.
why the bush bashing?
Spoken like a true conservative republican..if someone does not agree with you or live like you or vote like you or have the same beliefs or morals like you, you attack them personally, without any basis in fact for the attack. Get a life? Grow up? Things that have been posted here about Bush are the truth..PERIOD..yet, you turn around and attack personally, not knowing anything about the posters. I am grown up and do have a life, full of wonderful things and also full of politics and I will post and shout out and write editorials to the newspapers on this corrupt murderous administration any time I feel like it. Thank you very much. Now, why dont you go back to the Conservative Bush sheep section.
bashing bush
I do not see the media bashing Bush, honestly I still wonder why so Americans voted for him - so confusing our Country has never been in the Pearls it is in today, our poor troops!!!!!!
Thank you. I am sick of the Bush bashing too. Oh,

You can give up the Bush bashing...
guess what, your chosen one is fuck***g our country, just the way he has always wanted to. Blind the people with pretty speeches (Hitler), promise them free healthcare, free college, pat them on the as$ and tell them he will take care of them....bend over baby, you won't even get the satisfactin of KY Jelly!
Bush Bashing. Right now, I am more worried about

After all the Bush bashing this is refreshing....
just like Bush gave the left so much ammo, the great and powerful O is giving conservatives a lot of ammo...he's just gotta be him, and that is plenty of ammo. Good grief, with all due respect...he has only been in office 5 months and has completely turned is back on most of his campaign promises and is looking about as much like Bush as Bush...lol. He is Bush on steroids....we are only just realizing that Bush was Obama lite! What a hoot.
Distract from Obama's disaster by bashing Bush

Obama bashing versus Palin bashing... sm
Obama will be in the forefront for the next 4 years, assuming the electoral college pans out the way the popular vote did and providing his BC holds up in court.
Palin, on the other hand, has gone back to the frozen tundra. Whether she resurfaces in 2012 remains to be seen, but can't we just wait until then to start in on her?
Palin, the candidate that just keeps giving and giving...

Kudos to him!
Is that the same thing as a community organizer?
Kudos, Tammy!
You hit the nail right on the head! Just don't let the people who love to wallow in misery and live their lives in fear get to you. It seems they all came out of the woodwork to respond to your post.
Good for him! Kudos to Mr. Obama!

I am with you, MynaBird.Kudos to organizers.nm

Yes, DEFINITE kudos! Agree...
and yes, the difference in Ray Nagin this time and last time is night and day!
Was bashing her, was bashing his choice of
her. I said she was not the MOST qualified. Did not say she wasn't qualified. I said he picked because she would help with the base. That's actually a compliment.
Rather than attacking, try to understand the content.
What pulled us out of the
Great Depression was WW-II, which alleviated a lot of unemployment by sending guys overseas and boosted the manufacturing industry by demanding production of war materiel. Do we have to wait for him to get us into WW-III?
i pulled theme
words out of your post -- no context provided. Words for Obama include restore, rebuild, hope, inclusiveness, democracy, diplomacy, and last but not least arugula.
pulled out of any context
whatsoever to inflame prejudice. shameful, shameful behavior.
Of course she's not having her strings pulled...sm
By the religious right, she IS the religious right! She's a walking poster board for them.
But if she gets to WA, she's going to get her strings pulled by the puppet masters. It won't be like in Alaska where she can practice cronyism by appointing her unqualified high school friends to every position. She'll have to work with McCain's cronies.
It's already happening now during the campaign. She has to go along with the program if she wants to play. It's not her campaign. She's learning (from scratch) foreign policy from these people. She's parroting what they tell her to. You don't see that? Okay......
It's not garbage; I'm just not one pulled around by a

this is not right: When the Israelis pulled out of
Gaza in 2005, they destroyed all houses and everything that might be useful to the Palestinians. And now they are destroying the very livelhood of the Palestinians in the Westbank, their olive trees, their agriculture and their houses.
If they had pulled him from a picket line that would be different...sm
He was arrested for wearing a Veterans for Peace T-shirt.
McCain cronies pulled a man
from the Justice Department who was a lead terrorist prosecutor to fly to Alaska to squelch the investigation. What exactly are they hiding up there? It must be pretty serious to go that far. She lied - she said she welcomed the investigation and would cooperate fully in it. A shocking preview of what her time in office would be like if she were VP.
She has given no indication of having her strings pulled,....
by anyone in any of her previous public service. That is why she has so many political enemies. She makes decisions based on what is best for the people, not what is best for the politicians. I think we need to get BACK to that. WHat makes you think Obama won't be a puppet President with his strings being pulled by the DNC and George Soros? There is about as much evidence of that as there is of Palin having strings pulled by the religious right.
The clip has been pulled - imagine that!
They sure are trying their hardest to keep what it is they are about out of the news.
As the infamous Indiana Jones stated.....
"Nazi's.....I hate these guys."
How truly sad for you...... really! pulled by a nose ring..

I think it was yesterday they pulled Biden off the trail for a day...
or part of it anyway. At least that is what CNBC reported.
Oh..........I seriously doubt that! Pulled by a nose ring!

That's right.. Just keep that wool pulled real tight down over your eyes.

Same reasons I pulled straight democrat ticket.
make it through the House and Senate. No more shrub veto.
what are you giving up?
What are some things that you and/or your family are giving up due to the high price of gas and now the rise in food prices? My family - just me and my husband now - buy 2 large packs of water at Sam's every 2 weeks and drink this, sometimes getting some crystal light or something to put in it. We eat a meal once a week and that's it. Needless to say - we are both losing weight. But to fill up his truck - that's $100 a week - even though he only works 3 days a week now - and I work at home - so I only go out twice a month - to a dr. appointment and then the second time to get the water.
I'm giving up
It is so hard to have a positive outlook on society anymore. I think I should have been born about 100 years ago. This country has no more morals, all people care about is political correctness and not stepping on anyone's toes. The God of this nation has been pushed out, and people want to know why kids are shooting each other. We have become so pompous we think we can take care of ourselves. I want to live in a time when women respected their bodies and didn't just give it up to anyone. Where rapist were few and far between because they would be hanged if caught. They couldn't wiggle their way out of the judicial system on a technicality. Where we didn't need welfare because neighbor helped neighbor and everyone worked hard and worked together. Where there wasn't an obesity problem because kids played outside from after school until "the street lamp came on". Where people knew God and had a relationship with him. Where "love thy neighbor" was not just a commandment, but an action.
At 22 years old, I wonder if there will be an USA when I'm 40? Is it possible for our nation to survive at the rapid rate of decline we are experiencing for 18 more years? I used to pray to Jesus to wait to come, knowing it was selfish, because I knew so many people who didn't know his love and were not saved, including my own parents, and it killed me to think that we may be separated eternally because of that. Now I just can't help but to pray that He comes soon. All these movies about a post apocalyptic United States don't seem so far fetched now, minus all the zombies that is. We have to wake up. We need to fall to our knees and beg God for forgiveness and beg him to come back to our nation. If you don't believe in Him or want to scoff at me for saying this, I am so sorry. I am so sorry that you do not know the love of Christ. I just hope you get to know Him before it's to late.
God help us.
Not particularly.....just giving
the board a good lookover before I go lie down.
Too many with no b*lls giving in to a few who believe

Nobody's bashing you
Just because someone questions you it does not a bash make.
Who was bashing? sm
Someone pointed out, actually THREE someones, that a link was not working and you freaked out. Now, who is overreacting here? I tried to point out, nicely I might add, that the link was not working and you started with the only liberals could see it conversation. At least have the good graces to admit that this whole thing is blown way out of proportion. The link does not work. It just doesn't. If it works for you, I am surprised as all get out, because it just does not work for me. Settle down. Take a chill pill. No one is bashing you for Pete's sake.
What is bashing?
Thank you for your post, however, I do not need you to clarify what is a bashing post and what is not. Calling someone ignorant is not needed, debating is. I have participated in many debates both in college and within the internet and honestly debating can be done without disparaging another. Calling someone ignorant is a bash. However, you see the world one way, others see it another. Is not that reason enough to keep all posts and debates as kind as can be?
no bashing here, you are so right!
McCain is the man to lead right now. Palin is a great woman too. Obama is a good guy in many respects, but not to lead this country. He does NOT have the judgment, the depth of character or the right morality IMO. He is really a politician at heart, and its not a 'new kind of politics'... i think the senate is the best place for him.
Not bashing at all....I just wonder, though....sm
how many of you Obama supporters will even bother to admit if and when Obama does not live up to your expectations.
I noticed how no one on this board today, could even be bothered about the one issue I raised in my post, of Obama's lack of discretion, and outright disdain for our current president, by leaking their private conversation, and then lying about it. And then coming out and admitting he lied about it (or rather, his campaign supposedly said all these things and leaked them, etc...but he was the one in the oval office, not his campaign, and thus it came from him....).
Not a word from you on that subject.
No bashing here, BWT........ sm
I agree with you on all points. But the point I was making is now is the time to buy cheap and hope for an increase on your money in the future....and it will be WAY in the future.
We're all in the same boat sinking at the same time, and you're right, there is nothing Obama can do about it. Greed has gotten us to where we are, and not just the greed of the filthy rich either. I think we have about run our course here in America and the next years are going to be hard ones. I'll share my refrigerator box with ya!
You are giving her credit for something
she will NEVER do. She will never unite the party. She will only go on and on and on until it is impossible for a democrat to win this year, making McCain the president. All she wants is to be president, and if Obama gets in there, she will have to wait until 2016 when she'll be going on age 68. She doesn't care about the country or the democratic party. All she cares about is power, not about anything but HER and Bill. Sad, but the truth.
Um, excuse me, since when did giving
intelligent, well thought-out replies and giving one's opinion constitute bullying?
Gimme a break. Sam has every right to be here and she brings a lot to this board. Maybe if those who bash follow her lead in effective posting, the atmosphere here would be shall I say more of a good debate than a circus?
No, he's just giving them HOPE. Something that
Get used to it. She's the story that just keeps on giving
there will be plenty more where that comes from.
Why are you being so mean to everyone giving the O in Obama a bad name!
nm
I am giving him a chance and I
know that this isn't a quick fix. I'm realistic enough to know Obama cannot wave a magic wand and make this all go away. I'm just saying that for a man who hasnt' been pres for a whole week......he has made a lot of promises already with 2 already broken. I'm not trying to get a lynching mob together. I just want to stay informed of what my president and the government is doing because I refuse to just assume they are making the right decisions. Holy crap people.....seriously! Xanax....try some.
You mean too many with brains giving in.
There is a big difference between intelligence and lack of cahones.
I was just giving figures from what they said.
Dont' burn me for that.
