Needlessto say that after 8 years of listening to people call Bush every name in the book, this is turnabout fair play. I don't agree with the name calling as no matter how much I dislike his politics and what he is doing (quickly I might add) to take a bad situation Bush left us in and turning it into a far worse one; The office of the president still deserves our respect. (No matter how much the man in the office does to take that respected office and destroy it)
On another note, did anyone read the article on msn.com asking if CLinton caused the banking company?

Ron,
I am on the list of those who are not fond of GW Bush (though I am not fond of Obama or Clinton either), but even when Bush was in office there were just not that many threads that started out as attacks on him or his policies. Sure, we had plenty of threads that turned into a debate (and some were pretty heated) and others that were just name-calling-fests. And during the run-up to the election we were treated to almost daily anti DNC/Obama posts many of which were just propaganda, but very few that attacked McCain or the GOP.
We've all called political figures names, but it really just seems over the top for the last few months.
And I think it is very interesting that some posters (myself included) were told by others on this forum that to disagree with Bush was unpatriotic during a time of war. Many of those same people are the ones now calling Obama names and (gasp!) disagreeing with him. We still have troops fighting overseas...
Oh, and I think that Clinton, Frank and other DNC'ers and the GOP lead Congress of the day set the trigger for a lot of this mess.
