A Liberal is someone who has read Marx and admires him. A Conservative is someone who has read Marx and understands him.

*** Bush's college GPA was much higher than that of John F. Kerry. And Bush has managed to make the Democratic controlled congress look like mere rookies when it comes to political strategery. Okay Pelosi, give me $60 billion more to fund the war in Iraq. Not so fast pres Bush, I promised my congressional constituents that we Democrats will stop the war by refusing the funds for our military. Woops mr. pres, I changed my mind--I don't have the backbone or support to follow through with our Democratic plan...here's the money, just don't tell anyone I gave in to you, okay? I need to save face, afterall I'm the first ever female House Speaker in our nation's history.

Pelosi is just as poor an excuse for a leader as GW.

Media Matters - Fox News -- but he did

Summary: On Studio B, after Dan Gerstein noted that Sen. John McCain "confused Sunni and Shia," Shepard Smith asserted, "[i]t's not as if he misspoke three times about the exact same thing, about gunfire in Bosnia." In fact, McCain made the admittedly false claim that Iranian operatives were training Al Qaeda for fighting in Iraq three times over the course of two days.

Want a list instead?

DNC The William Holmes Blog

1. McCain doesn’t even know who is in charge in Iran.
2. Iraq/Iran, Sunni/Shia: McCain doesn’t know the difference.
3. McCain still thinks Czechoslovakia (which split into two countries in 1993) exists.
4. McCain wrongly claimed that Baghdad was mostly normal.
5. McCain called Baghdad market safe.
6. McCain can’t even remember how little he knows about the economy.
7. McCain falsely claimed he never requested pork.
8. McCain falsely claimed that tax cuts increased government revenues.
9. McCain’s claim to be untainted by special interest money is false.
10. McCain wrongly claimed he never supported amnesty.

How about statements where McCain was flat out wrong?

403 Forbidden

How would American troops be greeted?: "I believe… that the Iraqi people will greet us as liberators." (March 20, 2003)

Did Saddam Hussein have a nuclear program that posed an imminent threat to the United States?: "Saddam Hussein is on a crash course to construct a nuclear weapon." (October 10, 2002)

Will a war with Iraq be long or short?: "This conflict is… going to be relatively short." (March 23, 2003)

How is the war going?: "I would argue that the next three to six months will be critical." (September 10, 2003)

How is it going (almost two months later, from the war's "greatest critic")? "I think the initial phases of [the war] were so spectacularly successful that it took us all by surprise." (October 31, 2003)

Is this war really necessary?: "Only the most deluded of us could doubt the necessity of this war." (August 30, 2004)

How is it going? (Recurring question for the war's "greatest critic"): "We will probably see significant progress in the next six months to a year." (December 4, 2005)

Will the President's "surge" of troops into Baghdad and surrounding areas that the senator had been calling for finally make the difference?: "We can know fairly well [whether the surge is working] in a few months." (February 4, 2007)

And don't forget, McCain tells us he's an expert....

So you count the few times Obama has misspoke, and we'll weigh all the dozens of mistakes McCain't has made.

Yeah, but how many people have lost their lives due to Pelosi? How many millions are refugees are their in the world due to Pelose invading a country that had nothing at all to do with 9/11? Did she start and maintain GITMO? Does she still torture people? How many trillions of dollars has she spent on Iraq, medicare drug benefits, etc...

Maybe it is a factor of her not having that opportunity, but that is no excuse for Bush.

And that does not mean I really support Pelosi.

And yet Kerry appears so much smarter than Bush.

Kerry, Bush GPAs At Yale Similar, Report: John Kerry's Yale Grades Similar To President's - CBS News

(AP) Sen. John F. Kerry's grade average at Yale University was virtually identical to President Bush's record there, despite repeated portrayals of Kerry as the more intellectual candidate during the 2004 presidential campaign.

Now how smart are you for getting that wrong?

Hahahahahahahahaha....so when Bush and the republicans block everything he's your hero and then you turn around and blame the democrats because they can't stop the mess...talk about passive agressive.

She voted for the 'authorization to use force' and is just as guilty Michael. She violated the LoN in doing so and should be held accountable.

There can be no excuse for Bush. His signing statements alone are acts of sedition.
