    If you say so. I thought the Tea Party wanted to see a change in our Country. Why on Earth would they support Bush #2, Perry?

    Certainly not true. Did you hear all the boos he got at the first ever "Tea Party" GOP debate?

    Good for you mello. Too bad there are so many others that aren't in your position and will toss the Democrats and possibly Obama to the curb with the rest of the rubbish.

    Few things are more baffling...or maddeningly frustrating... than mental gymnastics presented by the True Believer.

    Yeah, kind of sounds like the GOP and the last president. What is amazing is that at least we have progressives actively challenging Obama and yet there are still Republicans wanting to throw every liberal under the bus. Where was the GOP dissent in 2004? Any Republicans care to answer?

    Liberals blamed everything on Bush. So, why can't we blame Obama?

    Since when was the tea party a group that stated its our fault we were attacked on 9/11? The tea party does support paul on a number of issues, they don't have to support him on all.

    I certainly can't blame one Republican that does this. However, don't pretend that the 8 years between Clinton and Obama didn't exists. Don't deny facts. It's perfectly fine to say Obama record speaks for itself and whatever he was trying to accomplish didn't work. But at least be honest and realize Bush squandered the projected surplus left to him by Clinton and Obama inherited the crap left by Bush.

    I don't care about Bush I didn't vote for him either time. You need to be honest as well. Bush inherited 9/11 from Clinton and the recession that followed those attacks.

    Oh, so now you want to offer excuses. I'm assuming it wasn't until 5 minutes ago that you even know he was booed since you had no recollection of it. Now you want to offer why? And for the record, Paul didn't say it was our fault that we were attacked on 9/11, he said our occupation of al qaeda's holy land is what fuels the hatred for America that a lot of these muslims have. Seems foreign policy would be a biggie to me as far as the importance of issues are concerned with the POTUS.

    because youve spent 40 years blaming the failures...

    now you want to both blame obama, and blame the failures at once?

    Listen to what you are saying. He inherited 9/11? So 9/11 was sort of in a bottle and just exploded 9 months after Bush took office? Bush had intel that terrorist might hijack planes. And what about the recession? That is Clinton's fault as well? This is what I'm talking about when I say at least be honest about the debate. I guess next you'll be saying we should pay homage to daddy Bush for giving us the 20 million jobs created under Clinton. Or maybe Lord Reagan.

    America should use enhanced interrogation techniqes on corporate criminals. That would get better information than any dog and pony show senate hearing.

    THE USA needs to interrogate the heads of Haliburtian and BP for their corporate crimes and all the head bankers of the mortague fraud era. As they are the real threat to national security. They are worst than terrorist, they are the ones that brought the USA to it's economic collapse.

    I'm sure the information we get out of them will be exactly what we want to hear. Not accurate, but great for sensational broadcast news.

    Gitmo will again be front and center in January, 2012....about 30 minutes after the inauguration of a right leaning president.
