If it wasn't for Gingrich controlling Wild Bill's spending Bill's legacy would be comparable to Obama's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, compare Trump's bankruptcies to how much Obama's Solyndra investment cost us. Who bankrupted the country. Our deficit is lower than it has been under Bush.

What will Trump accomplish? He can't even verbalize his plans. Oh, I forgot. He will make Amerikka great again and He will build a very large wall.

stevenash Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 As I said multiple times, I am fully tired of verbalizers that cant accomplish anything. I know plenty of people who are not great orators but are extremely productive. Perhaps we, as a country, ought to try someone like that. Here are some eloquent "verbalizations" from recent history- " My stimulus plan will provide shovel ready jobs" - " I am drawing a red line in the sand"- If you like your doctor/healthcare plan, you can keep it" " My Affordable Healthcare Act will reduce the average annual family premium by 25%"-" I will build a 21st Century VA" - "ISIS is the JV"- "Change you can believe in" Frankly, I have had more than my fill of great verbal abilities. Don't want a coach who is good at pep talks but doesn't know the difference between a man to man and a zone. Hagar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the republicans had a president in office and a majority in the house and Senate what did they accomplish during Bush's years in office? Bush 2 The Republicans never had a super majority during G.W.'s administration. During his tenure, it took 60 votes to pass anything in the senate (until Harry Reid arbitrarily changed the rules during Obama's term). Although the Republicans held both houses, they were by slim margins. And everything was going okay until the Democrats took over both houses in '07. I'm sure you remember the "crash" in '07. Obama and the Democrats have sure referred to it hundreds of thousands of times over the course of his administration. But they somehow fail to mention that this is when to Democrats took full control of both houses. One thing Bush and the Republicans did not do...they did not bankrupt the country. And if you throw out the "Yeah right" quote, I must assume you disagree with my statement. So how about a rebuttal since you obviously disagree with it. You have on numerous occasions misused the "deflection" argument. You have accused posters of "deflecting" when all they were doing was using examples or analogies to bolster their point. But here you are trying to deflect away from the Clinton topic to a whole other topic. Next time you try and claim someone is deflecting, come back to your post to remind yourself of real deflection.

And there should have been because of so many being lost during the crash. You can give credit to the cyclicality of the economy. You are simply trying to state that Steph Curry "poured" in 38 points in the 4th game of the finals while LeBron James averaged " only 29" per game. Both are facts, but the comparison is very faulty.
