Hell, Chimp/Cheney were too close to Adolph for my own tastes and the far right thinks they were too liberal. Granted, it's a gross exageration, but the ideal candidate for the wingnuts wouldn't be far on the political spectrum from those who instigated the Beer Hall Putsch.

Yep. I sometimes think that the only thing that saved us from Chimpy/Cheney was their magnificent incompetence.

Possibly. If he is it's because the Republicans were successful in preventing him from making significant progress toward repairing the damage they've done to this country. They're quite delighted to continue and increase the misery of the American people for political gain.

Yes, yes, we know all about how the Democrat majority couldn't do anything
Hitler, all ww2 deaths: 50 mil. Stalin + Mao, 20 + 40, 60 mil. And Japan and Italy is included in Hitler. These are considered middle ground estimates.
Of course, they are all fruit from the same poisonous tree, the distictions are generally exagrerated and mostly meaningless imho. It all comes from people who are convinced they know better than us, what is good for us.

So, I guess what we really need it leaders who are utterly clueless.
Pete, this entire post is unworthy of you, really lame.

you do know the economy was done (not effectively) and that is why we had to invest so much?
