Just so I have this one straight. . .?

If the president lies you into a war, sleepwalks through national security until the largest terrorist attack in history hits our shores, destroys the economy, and surrounds himself with corruption that would shame Grant it is high treason to question him

-but-

it's perfectly fine to hope out loud that the president elected in a landslide to clean up the mess fails, no matter what the country looks like after the hypothetical failure. That's not shallow partisanship at all, it's "straight shooting."

I guess the question is who really hates America?

Update:

Bow-wow: Always good to see that the 20%ers are completely harmless. Way to come up with your own thoughts and actually answer my question. What a smart guy!

Update 2:

Bwana: <sigh> Guess I'm one of the "whiners." Have fun out there on the margin.

Update 3:

Mike: We had a budget surplus and a screaming economy on Bush's first day, and now. . .

If Obama gets a memo entitled "Bin Laden Determined to attack inside US" I hope he acts on it.

We had the DC sniper, the Anthrax powder and attacks in Bali and the UK since 9/11. If that's "0," then Every president from Truman to Clinton also had "0." Why does Bush get credit for the attack happening on his watch? Why couldn't he keep us safe that day?

    Yes, that's pretty much it in a nutshell. But don't forget that now President Obama, not even in office a week, should be brought up on War Crimes... while totally ignoring that these strikes were going on in Pakistan during the Bush presidency and that the UN is calling on the US to prosecute Bush and Rumsfeld (others too?) on War Crimes:

    -- UN body wants Bush tried for torture

    http://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/1005717/UN-body...

    -- U.N. special rapporteur on torture calls on U.S. to prosecute Bush and Rumsfeld.

    http://thinkprogress.org/2009/01/21/un-bush-rumsfe...

    Yes, who would have thought that making excuses for war criminals, illegal practices violating the US Constitution and hoping for the failure of a new president would be the hallmarks of 'patriotism'.

    Lets debunk the LIES you SPEWED...

    1) GW did not lie us into war...he used the EXACT same Intel that had your Hero Clinton gave to us.

    2) The largest terror attack was planned and trained for UNDER CLINTON...Gw DID NOT have any specifics on it happening

    3) The economy did not tank until the DEMS GOT ELECTED AND DID IT DELIBERATELY to get theiir SOCIALISTIC plans into office.

    4) The "corruption" was no where near what your saying....Clinton was far worse and Osama Obama is NOT starting off to well....

    We are HOPING that the SOCIALIST PROGRAMS THAT YOUR MESSIAH IMPLEMENTS will FAIL as we know they will leave the nation crippled if theydon'tt...

    BUT HEY..don't let FACTS interrupt your fantasy land where you can drool all over yourself as you worship the water you think that Snake Oil Salesman you elected walks on....

    As you can see from the response of Bow Down

    There is no logic to the far right, they're like poor souls in the insane asylum, the reality the see is not one the "sane" people share

    are you saying bush was responsible for 9/11? thats an absolute lie and slap in the face to america. bush did a great job of handling 9/11, how many terrorist attacks have we had since then? 0. everyone was scared sh!tless after 9/11 that we were gonna have another terrorist attack, and now that bush protected us its easy to talk tough and say it was his fault. well, i guess bush did destroy the economy, he allowed fannie and freddie to give all those loans to people who couldnt afford them...oh wait, that was clinton.

    People have different definitions of "America." Rush Limbaugh and his followers believe that the only real Americans are white church-goers. A lot of politically correct liberals think that the only real Americans are everyone EXCEPT white males, although they're willing to accept white males who express the appropriate amount of guilt at having been born white and male.

    Actually whats more funny is this:

    Bush was called a 'war criminal' for killing civilians in Iraq.

    Obama killed Pakistani civilians with a rocket attack...and the Left goes silent.

    Your complaints about Bush are complete lies and fabrications.

    No wonder I have no respect for the drooling simps that elected Obama.
