While the last Democratic president, Bill Clinton, is on the campaign trail speaking at rallies on behalf of Barack Obama, the last Republican president, George W. Bush, has been missing in action totally this election. He surfaced today, however, in the Cayman Islands where he is delivering the keynote address at a private “investment” conference.
The press is locked out. A spokesman for the Cayman Alternative Investment Summit says the speech is totally closedto all journalists. Spokesman Dan Kneipp says he is not even permitted to discuss the subject of Bush's speech scheduled for Thursday evening at the Ritz-Carlton. Attendees are paying $4,000 each to get advice at this “investment” seminar. Sponsors include KPMG, a company that provides tax advisory services, and Deutsche Bank.

Here's A Thought!

In response to Mark Baumgardner's take on liberal vs. conservative- by Paul Ladniak

1: You’re irate over the president taking so many vacation days on the taxpayer’s dime (61 thus far), but you thought George W. Bush earned every minute of his leisure time (196 days at the same point in his presidency). This includes the ENTIRE month of August 2001, when on August 6th his Presidential Daily Briefing was entitled "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S."

I would be willing to say that Sean has not had Jesse back on his show since this interview but watching this sure did make my day and really should be a part of history.  (If for no other reason then to make us all smile and in some moments, laugh, cheer and clap!)-Mem

WMD LIES - Bush Cheney Rumsfeld etc. - THE ULTIMATE CLIP

I invite ALL Republicans and Tea Thugs to watch and listen. Especially if you had to send your husband, son, daughter or mother to Iraq. To those who lost a loved one in Iraq these are the people that should answer to this crime!-Mem

For the many who seem to be curious about George W. Bush on FB right now...

Many republicans realize that the Bush years were a failure for him and our Country. With the Tea Party taking over the republican party, sanity going out the window and the media only covering lies, hate and fear mongering some republicans are stepping up to the plate and saying enough! -Mem

A Message To The Obama Haters

You didn’t get mad when the Supreme Court stopped a legal recount and appointed a President.

You didn’t get mad when Cheney allowed Energy company officials to dictate energy policy.

You didn’t get mad when a covert CIA operative got outed.

You didn’t get mad when the Patriot Act got passed.

You didn’t get mad when we illegally invaded a country that posed no threat to us.

You didn’t get mad when we spent over 600 billion(and counting) on said illegal war.

You didn’t get mad when over 10 billion dollars just disappeared in Iraq.

You didn’t get mad when you found out we were torturing people.

You didn’t get mad when the government was illegally wiretapping Americans.

You didn’t get mad when we didn’t catch Bin Laden.

You didn’t get mad when you saw the horrible conditions at Walter Reed.

You didn’t get mad when we let a major US city drown.

You didn’t get mad when we gave a 900 billion tax break to the rich.

You didn’t get mad when, using reconciliation; a trillion dollars of our tax dollars were redirected to insurance companies for Medicare Advantage which cost over 20 percent more for basically the same services that Medicare provides.

You didn’t get mad when the deficit hit the trillion dollar mark, and our debt hit the thirteen trillion dollar mark.

(The above is a copy/paste of a nice rant about some of the many errors of the Bush admin. This rant has been making the rounds for awhile now and I don’t know where it originated. What follows is my addition.)

The following comments are from The Presidential Candidates

Yet you get mad at President Obama for what exactly?

Expanding health care coverage to over 30 million more Americans while making the worst health insurance industry abuses illegal and reducing the deficit? (source)

Credit card reform which protects consumers from credit card company abuses? (source)

Lowering taxes for 95% of working families? (source)

Being on target to cut Bush’s huge deficit in half within four years? (source)

The DOW going from 6500 to over 11000 during his Presidency? (source)

Is it because he signed expanded gun rights into law while not making any moves towards gun control? (source)

The recession reversing with job losses turning into job gains? (source)

Working to reform Wall Street Reform so we don’t experience another economic meltdown like what happened under Bush’s “leadership” in September 2008? (source)

Working to reduce loose nukes in order to decrease the chances of a nuclear attack on the US by terrorists? ( source )

***************************************************************

Notice those last two are “works in progress.” These are things Obama is trying to do but the Republicans are doing everything they can stop him from being successful on these fronts (similar to how they pulled out every trick in the book to try to stop health care reform.) They don’t seem to care that stopping Obama from getting “political victories” (their biggest concern it seems) may lead to a terrorist nuking a major US city or another economic meltdown.

Think about that. “Country First”? Hardly. The Republican Party of today seems to exist only to further it’s own existence. They will stop at nothing to defeat Obama politically. They don’t care how many lies they have to tell or what the long term consequences are for average Americans.

It’s because of this that I think it’s of very much importance for the future of the United States that the “Republican Tea Party” be defeated this November. Do your part. Make sure you are registered to vote and get to the polls to vote against all Republican Tea Party candidates.

George W Bush, Republicans

Just A Little Reminder For Those Who Want Bushed Again!

Today in the world of Internet the Repubs can post anything they want. Just like their favorite reality show "faux", they say it and people believe it. Recently I have seen repubs posting all over FB how Bush had the highest record for employment in 20 years when in reality he had the worst record for job growth. Under Bush those that made a profit were the banks, loan companies, oil companies, wall street, the wealthy from tax cuts and big corporations. This is where the Repubs funding comes from during the elections and they are not doing this for the "little peoples" benefit!

President Obama has done more in his 2 years then most Presidents had done in their full terms but it is hardly being noticed because of media lies, the vast lies on the Internet and advertisements from the Chamber Of Commerce. According to local news last night they spend 3 million dollars a week in ads to fight the Presidents "Agenda".

America should be ashamed of themselves. We have people starving, out of jobs, living on the streets and we have the Chamber Of Commerce spending millions a week to fight our President. The right is succeeding in destroying this Country just to make sure it LOOKS like President Obama is failing. This is disgusting and it is up to us to make sure the truth gets out there and that this behavior is recorded and remembered by future generations. ~Mem

Here's some facts.
Job growth under Bush was worst since WWII
Jacksonville Business Journal - by G. Scott Thomas
This was an article from January 20, 2009

President George W. Bush will leave office Tuesday with the worst employment-growth record of any president since World War II, according to a new analysis by Bizjournals.

The nation’s job base grew at an annual rate of 0.28 percent during Bush’s eight years as president – by far the slowest pace for any of the 11 presidents in the postwar era, according to Bizjournals. Bizjournals is the online media arm of American City Business Journals, The Business Review's parent company.

The previous low had been set by Bush’s father, George H.W. Bush, with an annual job-growth rate of 0.59 percent. The elder Bush served between 1989 and 1993.

Bizjournals used seasonally adjusted data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics to calculate employment-growth rates for the administrations of all presidents since Harry Truman. Each president’s record was based on a comparison of job totals in the final full month served by his predecessor and his own final month. George W. Bush’s span ran from December 2000, when nonfarm employment totaled 132.5 million, to December 2008, when it reached 135.5 million.

The administration with the strongest growth rate since World War II was that of Lyndon Johnson, who served between November 1963 and January 1969. Employment increased at an annual pace of 3.74 percent during that period.

Bizjournals also looked at five subsets of job growth, with the younger President Bush finishing last in four of those categories – private-sector, manufacturing, retail-trade and government employment. The exception was construction employment, where Bush ranked ninth with an annual growth rate of 0.08 percent. The nation suffered losses of construction jobs under two presidents: Gerald Ford (down 3.75 percent per year between 1974 and 1977) and George H.W. Bush (down 3.22 percent per year).

Johnson was the top-rated president in three of the subsets – private-sector, manufacturing and government employment. Harry Truman, who was president from 1945 to 1953, led the other two – construction and retail-trade employment.

Annual employment-growth rates for all 11 postwar presidents are listed below:
Total employment
1. Lyndon Johnson (1963-69), 3.74%
2. Jimmy Carter (1977-81), 3.11%
3. Bill Clinton (1993-2001), 2.42%
4. Harry Truman (1945-53), 2.38%
5. Richard Nixon (1969-74), 2.30%
6. John Kennedy (1961-63), 2.28%
7. Ronald Reagan (1981-89), 2.04%
8. Gerald Ford (1974-77), 0.95%
9. Dwight Eisenhower (1953-61), 0.87%
10. George H.W. Bush (1989-93), 0.59%
11. George W. Bush (2001-09), 0.28%
