People may find this hard to believe, but all true conservatives were
against the Bush bailout--and look at the result.... Just what we
predicted. You don't solve these issues by throwing somebody else's
money at it. Government has one option at this point that will truly
work.

That is absolute fiscal responsibility. They need to do what private
citizens are expected to do--tighten their belt, control spending. End
welfare (which is nothing more than a form of slavery. All good
socialists ought to be opposed to slavery--and welfare is the _worst_
kind), and then, slash taxes. Government has one constitutional task,
and that's national defense. Everything else is icing, and not
constitutional (at least in the US). Guaranteed, if this were to
happen, the recession (as it is being called) would end most quickly,
and more so, the sloppy accounting practices and business practices
would be wiped out, because such companies would cease to exist. Wages
would normalize, thanks to the plentiful labor, illegal immigration
would cease to exist, and people would be much happier, as consumerism
would also "cease". Does it sound "mean" or "brutal"? Well, which is
worse? That, or a decade of depression, with millions out of work,
living in dependency, hunger, malaise and a continuing downward
spiral, like we had in the 30? or a short-term shock that relatively
rights itself? All government intervention can do is prolong the
misery.

And this shows who has _truly_ lied, and who has believed their lies!
I can't believe that people still trot this bull hockey out. Tell me
one, solid lie that Bush told. Or better yet, produce evidence that
any weapons were actually destroyed in sufficient quantity that can
prove that the weapons, which existed, no longer exist. Until you can
give me convincing evidence of their destruction, all you have is a
bunch of media hype and lies _about_ Bush and the Bush administration.

But let's go one step further. Bush has _admitted_ that he was wrong
about wmd, that he was as deceived as Clinton, the UN, and everybody
else. Are you going to do the Christian thing, and forgive him? Or are
you going to simply continue to accuse him of lying? It's funny how we
tend to want to believe certain people (such as Obama), and accept all
sorts of fault, lies, etc. Yet others, who have only ever shown
themselves to be honest, we treat as liars. What Bush was hated most
for (especially by Europeans) was that he always said what he was
going to do, and did what he said--none of that political
double-speak. I remember reading news reports, and watching EuroNews,
and was amazed at the vitriol that Euro diplomats had for him for this
very reason.

In other words, Bush was honest to a fault. More so, he expended every
last bit of his political capital--leaving office despised by most
people--because he tried to keep his country safe. By the most
important measure--no more attacks on American soil--he was
successful. He knew he would be treated as a disgrace from the start.
Yet he did it. Let's see a Clinton or Obama be willing to do this. You
hate Bush all you want, but I believe a good Christian would respect
him for who he was and what he did. The problem is that, unlike most
presidents, he didn't toot his own horn, or try to play the publicity
game, and manipulate people to make himself look good. So, go ahead
and hate the man.
