well let's see...did he suspend habeas corpus? nope. bush did.

When was that? You have said it several times.

why not read the controversy about his AG, gonzalez who wrote a memo
saying it was legal for the president to suspend habeas corpus

Did they actually do it?

try reading up on jose padilla. oh. you right wingers dont pay
attention if americans are tortured by right wing american presidents
'cuz that's done in the name of 'national security'.

uh huh.

You will have to talk to the 2d US district court of appeals on that
one.

did he extend unemployment benefits that the GOP wanted to cut off?
yep.

Every president since Eisenhower has extended unemployment during a
recession

funny that the GOP opposed it on 'moral hazard' theory grounds,
thinking the middle class is too lazy to work.

But Bush did extend unemployment during his recession

did he start to re-impose banking regulations that the GOP gutted?
yep.

Read the legislation, there were plenty of democrats involved with
this deregulation.

read the legislation. it was written by phil gramm, a texas
republican, and his wife, a sr. VP at enron. and we know how the GOP
loved enron. another chance to fleece the middle class.

Look at the votes on Gramm-Leach-Bliley.
155 house democrats and 38 democratic senators voted for it
Bill Clinton signed it into law

did he fire the general bush had running the afghan war? yep.

How many generals have there been in the 18 years of the crusade?
Clinton and Bush fired some too

exactly my point. bush fired the generals, like shinseki, who would
have won the wars, because he listened, like the puppet he was, to
rumsfeld

There is NO WINNING this cluster****

No, it's just a talking point... Gets pretty old huh?
