Reply #7: Bush seems to gotten just about every fucking thing he asks for except Social Security 'reform'.

[FormerDittoHead]

The 'theme' for the past 7 years 11 months has been, Bush wants this, Bush get it.

Even now, in his 11th hour, we're hearing about unilateral (ie: without the Congress) (de)regulations which Obama won't be able to quickly reverse. (I know the issues of review, blaw, blaw, but stay with my main point, please).

Bush gets everything done even with a Democratic Congress.

So the point is that Obama doesn't need the support of those who oppose him, because they will continue to oppose him on anything except those very, exact things which they want, which is what we DON'T want. There is NO middle ground with our loyal opposition, there's only WINNING.

Bush was the most unpopular President in my lifetime, but he got things done while pissing people off from the left AND the right. Who likes BUSH? When the hell did HE ever "reach out" and make even the MIDDLE happy?

Unless Obama starts talking about Gay marriage bans and banning abortion and closing public schools and government financing of Sunday school and elimination of taxes for the wealthy will Evangelicals and the right not continue to fight him and his administration tooth and nail for every foot on the political gridiron.
