Can someone give me a list of the McCain/Bush achievements?

Question

(please no links to Fox News)

I already know about our record deficit

Record debt to China

Hated all over the world for fake wars and lies

The recession

Dead American soldiers

9/11 happened on their watch

A gaffe-prone president who exemplifies moron

and I certainly do already know that the Repubs politicized the justice department, exposed CIA agents and didn't catch Bin Laden

Answer 1

is that all ya got~?!

come on now, have yourself a Red Bull Energy Drink and i am sure you can come up with a lot more than that~!

Answer 2

McCain and Bush achievements

Recession

Higher cost of living

Making things great for wealthy people

High GAS prices

Ridiculously high food price.

McCain's achievement: Hugging up to a someone who accused him of fathering a black child in the 2000 primaries(priceless)

"The republican party": "Anywhere you don't want to be unless you own an OIL company"

Answer 3

Bush has been President for about 8 years and McCain has been a U.S. Senator for about 20 years.

They are not the same people, have not been, and will not be the same administration.

Record Deficit:   As a share of the economy, the 2009 deficit would be 3% to 4%, below the post-World War II record of 6% set in 1983.  It's like saying that a person who makes $150,000 a year has to worry about a $10,000 loan the same as someone who only makes $75,000/year.

Record debt to China -- Talk to Bill / Hillary Clinton about China

World Opinion  -- Like we care what the French, German's, and Russians think of us -- you obviously do.

The Recession -- no recession yet as defined by 2 consecutive declining quarters of GDP -- But keep wishing maybe you'll get it when Obama wins!

Dead American Soldiers -- we mourn them and salute their bravery.  Imagine, every one of them has volunteered to protect this great nation!  They put themselves in harm's way to protect you and me.

Regarding 9/11 on "their watch"

From Osama Bin Laden's own mouth -- after the U.S. ran from Somalia (with it's tail between its legs during Clinton's watch), Osama said he "knew" he could make a bold strike again on our soil -- yes, AGAIN -- because the 1st attack happened in 1992 during Clinton's first term when Al-Qaeda bombed the World Trade center using explosives in a truck in the basement.  The goal was to topple one building into the other one and destroy many others in the process.

So when Bush has kept us safe for over 2,500 days since 9/11/01, I put that very high on my list of accomplishments.  And when McCain had the foresight to know that the surge was what we needed to move the Iraq war towards a better outcome, I value that type of judgment.

Your last one must keep you up at night -- how did such a moron beat the "Superior Intellegence of the Left" . . . twice!

Obama has (actually) served in the Senate for about 143 days -- Before that, he was an IL State Senator where he managed to vote "present" 130 times.

Stick with hope and change -- you don't want to start trying to match up with McCain over actual achievements.

Answer 4

Interesting that YOU use the word "moron" in your question.  I do not recall a McCain/Bush administration -  

Maybe you can give us a list of the many Obama/Biden achievements since they have collectively been in government for more than 30 years.

Answer 5

He has given himself "unchecked power" to conduct a lot of political business Without the input of Congress, Senate or anyone else. The level of "unchecked power" he has given himself is unprecedented.

He has made himself the "expert" in every field including the medical field when he interferes with labeling medical areas such as Stem Cell Research "morally wrong" when this isn't even a field he should put his .02 in

etc. etc.

Answer 6

NO, they CAN NOT

Answer 7

There or more than the following, but no room. I couldn't come up with any of Obama's achievements, but kicking his dope addiction should count for something.

Character & Conduct as President

Changed the tone in the White House, restoring HONOR and DIGNITY to the presidency.

Has reintroduced the mention of God and faith into public discourse.

Handled himself with enormous courage, dignity, grace, determination, and leadership in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 hijackings and anthrax attacks. He almost single-handedly held this country together during those searing days:

Just three days after the attacks, in his address at the National Cathedral, the President reassured the nation when he said: "War has been waged against us by stealth and deceit and murder. This nation is peaceful, but fierce when stirred to anger. This conflict was begun on the timing and terms of others. It will end in a way, and at an hour, of our choosing."

On Friday, September 14, 2001, President Bush visited Ground Zero. Standing on a crushed and burned fire engine atop the smoldering pile at Ground Zero, he put his arm around a retired firefighter who had volunteered to help, and began speaking to the crowd. Rescue workers shouted that they could not hear him. Someone handed him a small American flag and bullhorn. The President spontaneously shouted: "I can hear you. The rest of the world hears you. And the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon." The crowd roared with cheers and chants of "USA! USA! USA!" Then he raised that American flag and rallied a nation:



Education & Employment Training

Signed the No Child Left Behind Act, delivering the most dramatic education reforms in a generation (challenging the soft bigotry of low expectations). The very liberal California Teachers union is currently running radio ads against the accountability provisions of this Act.

McCain - getting his military records sealed.

Bush - getting out of serving and still being in the service.

Answer 9

hum-mm

Well the deficit started with Clinton

the Debt to other nations started with Kennedy he took all the Social Security. monies for the governments use . Jimmy Carter started trade with China and started borrowing on their notes .

The World has hated the U.S ever since its inception after its seperation from England . Everyone hates and is jealous of Freedom and democracy especially the Muslim nations and Communists  agenda's.

The recession began at the last term of Bill Clinton . And got worse with a Democratic Congress who refuses to vote in policies and laws for help this nation and instead of our enemies !!

And American soldiers have died for the Freedom of this country for decades . And 9/11 was a result of the Clintons Presidency and his lack of foreign policies and his Order to Bomb Afghanastan and the Taliban .( Not Bush) Bush has had to clean up a Clinton mess , much like the media did with the Lawinsky shame .

And speak of a Moron (Read last sentence)Its pretty obvious who the true moron was !!

And this CIA scandel is just a rhetoric for the Dems and she was not what everyone thinks and ALL will soon find this out .(well as soon as the media quits drooling over Obama long enough to report the Truth )

And no one knows Bin Laden could be dead and or as always Hidding and allowing the enemy to destroy itself with , and gee Your falling right into their hands with your rhetoric.............Hummmm
