The last is the most ironic. Donlald Luskin is an interesting critter:

Having spent his entire career in the banking and investment industry his
comment above is either a self-serving lie or shows that he is irreparably
out of touch with reality.

Let's see on war....for the last century..

WWI - started and resolved by Dem(Wilson) with no direct attack on USA.
Failed leadership in Versailles Treaty considered direct cause for Hitler's
rise and WWII and allit's consequences.
WWII - started Dem(Roosevelt), resolved by Dem(Truman) largely because of VP
succession and more than two terms allowed
Korea - started Dem (Truman), resolved by Rep(Eisenhower)
Vietnam - started Dem(Kennedy, Johnson), resolved by Rep(Nixon)
Iran Hostage - started Dem(Carter), resolved by Rep(Reagan) left radical
Islamic leadership(see Iraq)
Grenada - started and resolved by Rep(Reagan) in less than a week
Cold War - started by Dem(Truman, see Churchhill Iron Curtain speech),
resolved by Rep(Reagan/Bush)
Panama - started and resolved by Rep(Bush) in less than a week
Kuwait - started and resolved by Rep(Bush), invaded country freed in less
than six months with strong NATO alliance
Somalia - started by Rep(Bush); a year later left by Dem(Clinton) unresolved
mess still present, leading to current haven for pirates situation
Haiti -started and sort of resolved by Dem(Clinton) troops, unresolved mess
still present
Assorted Terroist Attacks against US interests, Suadia Arabia, Kenya, USS
Cole, WTC(1993) - Dem(Clinton) in charge, left unresolved except for cruise
missle attack on baby food factory in Sudan.
Bosnia - started by Dem(Clinton), with limp wristed NATO help. Unresolved,
troops still present.
Afghanistan - started by Rep(Bush), terrorist Islamic leadership toppled,
government democratically elected for first time in 30 years, not resolved
yet.
Iraq - started by Rep(Bush), dictator toppled, democratically elected
government for first time in 40 plus years, unresolved. Outside assistance
from Islamic neighbors(see Iran above) aided forces wanting to topple
democratic leadership.

So if you take actual body counts(how else do you want to judge this??), I
do feel the Democrats take the award on American lives lost in battles they
started.

Massive Social Entitlement programs started by Roosevelt(Social Security)
and Johnson(Medicare, Great Society and a host of other programs) that led
to massive deficit spending that noone has the guts to resolve and will sink
USA as a nation even after the current economic cycle turns up, as they
always do.

Many feel the entitlement nation started by Roosevelt and piled on by
Johnson, started deficit spending and drove it into overdirve. While
military spending can and has been adjusted over time these entitlements
only go one way..UP and noone will ever kill them. It was a genie that
should never have been let out of the bottle.

Flame on!

True..the ones they treated worse were all dead and had very little to say
on the topic! The Germans that got captured by Russians and sent to Siberia,
the return ratio was about 15%.

Good thing the Internet will have only 100% factual information on
it...nothing made up on it at all!
I understand that's what they used at the Nuremburg Trials, Web Sites and
Blogger posts! Who needs solid evidence in a court of law??

And the beginning of the Democrats taking "plundering" to a whole new
level!

Ah, the old "Evilist of Two Lessors" argument misportraying the
opposition.

Oh gee, a personal insult from a fringe-lefty. Why am I not surprised
that your type immediately degrades to such. It must be instinctual for
you like a bite from a cornered animal. I pity you.

Projection and erroneous assumptions are what got America mired in Iraq,
do you support that invasion too? If so then why are you not in Iraq?

How about the "Patriot Act"?

Was "plundering" the clue?

Some people are just clueless...


Its the fault of Corporate Media. They wernt doing their jobs.
THis will make Chimpy & Friends face the music:

After watching this last night, my dad, a WW2 vet & POW for 6 months in a
GERMAN PRISION CAMP said,"even the nazi's didn't treat me that badly".

Now thats saying something.


True..the ones they treated worse were all dead and had very little to say
on the topic!


So we're the equvalent of the Nazi's?
Interesting point.

The Germans that got captured by Russians and sent to Siberia,
the return ratio was about 15%.

I hear its very cold up there...


Good thing the Internet will have only 100% factual information on
it...nothing made up on it at all!


I'm a beautiful magic wolf!

I understand that's what they used at the Nuremburg Trials,


Magic, or pesky facts?

Web Sites and
Blogger posts! Who needs solid evidence in a court of law??

The gloves *still* don't fit, baby.
