If Obama "failed", what about Bush?
Republicans are saying that Obama failed, but the Bush admin. called the take-down of the 'shoebomber' by civilians a 'success', how is this different?

1. I don't believe Obama has failed.
I think everything is going exactly to the plan of the DLC.

4. Obama should have sat and made faces for 7 minutes...
...then high-tailed it to Omaha...then started a war. We do have an election year coming up, so Obama could still steal a page from the Bush/Cheney/Rove playbook and start a war.

6. Failure requires effort.
Obama can fail because he's trying. I'm not sure that * ever put in the slightest bit of effort.

7. bushcheney only let the terrorists attack on 9-11, so they didn't fail
What they wanted to happen happened. They are a fucking conservative success story cause the sheep remain scared for eight years.

8. So when an attack is foiled it is considered a failure but when
the largest terrorist attack on the USA in History happens it is considered Huge success...:crazy: They are so incompetent, even their attacks upon Democrats are incompetent..If I had to choose one word to describe Republicans over the last Decade, Incompetent, would be right up there..
