George W. Bush looks like FDR compared to all of the lunatics in the GOP presidential race.
Edited on Fri Aug-12-11 08:43 PM by boxman15
Honestly, I am terrified of what would happen to this country should any of them win. The GOP has gone completely off the deep end. It's absolutely ridiculous. I'd vote for 8 more years of Dubya over 1 month of Bachmann or Perry and a Tea Party Congress. And I think Bush was the worst president of all-time. The thought of a completely Teabagged Washington makes me shutter.

2012 is hugely important. We must reelect Obama and fill Congress with liberal Democrats. It's our only shot to get ourselves out of this mess.

1. But Bachmann looked so "presidential" in her shiny gray suit.
So someone said here.

Sounded like a Tweety tingle moment.

2. You won't get any argument from me.
Please don't misunderstand. Any "Miss me yet?" caption under under Dubya's gets a resounding "No" from me. But compared with the GOP hopefuls this time out, he appears downright moderate.

6. Good point
Edited on Fri Aug-12-11 09:51 PM by fujiyama
They look like they are enthusiastically determined to drive this country over a cliff. Bush looked like an idiot puppet that neither had the interest or the intellectual curiosity of being there.

I've been watching these republican primary debates since '00 and the candidates are crazier and crazier. I thought Bush, Buchanan, and Keyes were bad...and then there was Giuliani and Romney...but this Romney 2.0 is crazier than ever and this time we have Santorum and Ginrich? And Bachmann? God, The fact that she isn't laughed off stage is incredible. Instead she's called presidential by the media? :wtf:

5. I see no difference between the Tea Partiers, the GOP pigs running for offices....
Edited on Fri Aug-12-11 09:28 PM by Sarah Ibarruri
and the GOP pigs like Cheney, Newt, etc. Really, it's the reason our country is dying. 31 years of GOP and a GOP trend has killed it off.

8. Oh and the thought of one of them picking a Supreme Court Justice.
Scary.

10. Your headline is the best thing we have going right now.
Edited on Sat Aug-13-11 08:55 AM by shayes51
President Obama's best chances of being re-elected are his (and our) enemies.
