Obama continues with exact same policies as failed Bush administration

POSTED: Wednesday, November 24, 2010, 3:01 PM

Eight years of this nonsense under Bush and now two years of the same-old, same-old under Obama. You call this "change" and "transformation"? I'll bet even a McCain-Palin administration would have continued the same disastrous, turkey-coddling policies.

Have a great Thanksgiving, everybody.

    Will complains about constitutional rights being violated by warrantless wire tapping under Bush, yet remains silent as the Obama police state rolls onward over citizens in a way that affects many more people than wire tapping ever did. Why the silence will? Why do you fiddle while Rome burns?

    TSA agents harrasing a woman who didn't want her breast milk rayed. She complained and showed them their own alternate procedures, so they detained her until she missed her flight. http://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2010/11/our-new-safety-overlords/67079/

    ..................FACTS......According to polls — Pew Research Center, the National Science Foundation — and studies such as Arthur Brooks’s Gross National Happiness, conservative Americans are happier than liberal Americans.

    Liberals respond this way: “If we’re unhappier, it’s because we are more upset than conservatives over the plight of those less fortunate than ourselves.”

    But common sense and data suggest other explanations.
    For one thing, conservatives on the same socioeconomic level as liberals give more charity and volunteer more time than do liberals. And as regards the suffering of non-Americans, for at least half a century conservatives have been far more willing to sacrifice American treasure and American blood (often their own) for other nations’ liberty.

    Both of these facts refute the liberals-are-more-concerned-about-others explanation for liberal unhappiness.

    Bush is to blame for putting Obama in office? That is worse than invading Iraq.

    The big news today: Tom Delay found guilty of money laundering. Faces 5 to 99 years in a Texas prison. Justice has been served.

    TPS - stop lying for Thanksgiving - never said I don't read. You speak with too much fork-tongue. Check your holiday message vs mine - no hate, no vitriol in mine. Why can't you do the same? I suggest you read this http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/253768/why-unhappy-people-are-liberals-dennis-prager

    "Even Obama is Bush's fault." . . . . . LOL, how true! "Really more same old same old." . . . . . Yeah, the same old 'same old' we've been warning the Right about for decades. Heck, it was no big deal when they were spying on and infiltrating the long-hairs, the feminists, the uppity black activists, the ACLU, all on grounds of national security. Now they're coming for you, righty. As Ben Franklin might say, you deserve it.

    Happy Thanksgiving Will and TPS. I liked the President's line about his pardon preventing at least one shellacking in November. Glad it only worked this time.
