Full-page ad in our local paper today blames Carter, Clinton, Frank and Obama for economy.
Said Obama ruined the economy and that it was socialism - not capitalism - that gave us what we have today?

You see, Pres. Obama is just so powerful, he ruined an economy even before he became president!

And that Carter? Well he's still ruining things even 30 years after leaving office.

No discussion, of course, about Bush and Reagan and the right.

:rofl:

2. The evil Muslin Kenyan ruined it when he was born.
Its so obvious. And Carter...I was 5 when Carter became President. Most people under 35 barely remember Carter.

3. Not Carter...it was the Clenis! Before that, nobody except the marrieds knew what sex was.
Certainly not the children!

5. Unfortunately.
Someone needs to counter with a simple ad of Bush's ugly mug and what the deficit & stock market was BEFORE he took office and where it was the day he LEFT office.

7. Yes, that's all it would take..a
moment's refresher course.

Perhaps a suggestion to moveon.org?

6. The same pile of shit was in the Pittsburgh Post Gazette last week
This group was out of Ohio. I have it in the recycle bin, but as far as I was concerned, they helped the PPG pay the bills, and little more.

You would have thought every Democrat since Jimmy Carter was to blame for the economic disaster.

Truly stunning piece. It should fit perfectly under anyones bird cage.

12. It's perfectly sensible to keep the sheep in line
That's the relationship between authoritarian leaders and followers.

13. When it is a KNOWN fact, an indisputable FACT...
That over 76% of the total deficit is the responsibility of THREE Presidents...

St. Ronnie, The Monkeys Dad, and The Monkey himself.

OVER SEVENTY SIX PERCENT.

Lying, filthy, scumbags.

And the SHEEP read this and say...

"Baaahhhhh! Baahhhh!"

Assholes.

14. And on WHAT?
WASTE. That's all it ever was - WASTE.

Nothing that helped ONE American citizen.

There was no occupation they started that could be deemed a "defense".

The premise behind saving the rich a ton of tax booty (to create jobs) . . . never happened.

They bailed out the Savings and Loans THEY deregulated and looted . . . with OUR money.

They bailed out the financial institutions THEY deregulated and pillaged . . . with OUR money.

It was all about WASTE and CRONYISM. And THEY stuck us with the check.

Bastards.

15. It is astounding that this is the level of debate among right wingers
Do other countries have as many people that are this stupid?
