Death of an Empire

It never ceases to amaze me how ignorant Americans are when it comes to the actions of their political parties. The Republicans are responsible for the market crash of 08(Thanks to Bush's deregulations, which made possible the Subprime loans & credit default swaps) and the continuing spiral into disaster in which it's currently caught in.

Take a good long look at the Debt number per US President to get an idea of who's done what to the US economy  This will take a bit of actual research on your part to confirm, but it’ll be worth it as it’ll give you facts to base an opinion on instead of blindly regurgitating someone else’s.

The Democrats:

~ Obama is the only Democrat to run a deficit since WWII. (This is understandable considering that the American economy was left in a complete shambles when he took office.)

~ Democrats are responsible for decreasing the US debt by a total of 66.7% (including Obama's numbers)

~ Major Wars (No CIA/black ops aggression included:

1950–53 – Korean War (Truman, Democrat)

2011 –Current – Libya. (Obama. Democrat)

The Republicans:

~ Truman (Roosevelt outgoing) & Nixon are the only Republicans who made a difference to the US debt’s.

~ The Republicans are responsible for a 42.4% increase to the US debt (The outgoing Bush was responsible for 27.8%(increase of 66%) all on his own.)

~ Major Wars (No CIA/black ops aggression included):

1959–75 – Vietnam War. (Eisenhower, Republican)

1991 –Current – Persian Gulf War. ( George Bush Sr. Republican)

2001 – Current – Afghanistan. (George Bush Jr. Republican)

2003 – Current- Iraq. (George Bush Jr. Republican)

My Conclusion:

Every Republican bases their vote on two things while seemingly ignoring what I’ve outlined. Gun Registration & Anti abortion. As long as the republicans leave those two items off of agenda, they have a legion of people to use as they see fit. The real tea party is the one going on at the expense of the American taxpayers to fund 3 ongoing wars as well as fill the coffers of corporations/lobbyists that support the Republican Party. The sooner people wake from the Terrorist fog used to manipulate them into a society based on fear, the sooner they can get angry about the liberties stolen and retake political destiny.
