When will the Democratic Party start giving George W. Bush recognition for helping America's Poor?

When will the Democratic Party start giving George W. Bush recognition for helping America's Poor?
For the last eight years while George W. Bush has been the President of the United States of America, he has poured out his heart in helping America’s Poor and yet, the Democratic Party has shown little to no recognition to what he has done for the poor. Instead, they accuse Bush on only helping The Rich and Upper Class. Since Bush has been president of the United States, I have noticed that he has done the following for the poor in America; 1. He provides the Poor with Tax Relief, that way they can save some money. 2. He makes sure that their children are getting a good education by making sure schools are using the No Child Left Behind Act. 3. He is getting the Poor OFF Welfare and back to work, that way they can make money on their on to support their family and not using welfare checks to get by. 4. I have noticed that poverty in my community and in the state I reside in is on the decline for the first time in years.

Bush for the ways he helps America's Poor.

they wont not now not ever.
2 :
That won't wok for them sorry, so never.
3 :
Not on your life would they admit anything positive. They can't see beyond their hatred.
4 :
They won't ever give him positive credit for anything. He could solve world hunger tomorrow and they would find fault with him -- he waited too long, the carrots are too small, the meat is too tough, he didn't observe religious dietary laws, etc. No matter what the man does liberals will always hate him.
5 :
In the long run, he's plunged more people into poverty! More and more people avery day are losing their houses, being refused bank accounts and having posessions reposessed. Had he maybe devoted more of his money on helping his country's poor, instead of on illegal wars and coseying up to big buisinesses, maybe America would be in a more comfertable position economically.
6 :
Median wages accounting for inflation have declined over the past 8 years. Unemployment was lower at the end of Clinton's term. The dollar has dropped to historic lows against other currency. Poor people in New Orleans didn't get Federal aid for 5 days after Katrina. No Child Left behind has been an underfunded disaster. Tell me again how Bush has helped the poor and middle class?
7 :
never Dems specialize in character assassination --- not in reality.
8 :
i couldnt agree more no child left behind and is probably the single most greatest achievment of the bush administration
9 :
by showing that poor intelligence is not a block to gettin a good job if daddy pays 1. the nominal savings are easten multifold by nonsense fule prices which bush is getin richer off. Almost all tax cuts went to uberich 2. I worked in schools it does more harm then good 3.Clinton reformed welfare/ Bush just sent the jobs to china 4. If correct thats probably due to sensable policy by local leaders lol acording to fixed news there are no poor except the lazy ones not born to oil fortunes
10 :
Okie dokey, but your sources do not fill me with confidence.
11 :
Bush help the poor? When he was gov of Texas he refused to sign a bill that would give 20000 children Medicaid. These were children who had NO health insurance. This country is in bad shape and it is getting worse. BTW have you seen New Orleans it is still a mess. And it was not Bush who changed the welfare laws it was Clinton. The homeless rate is higher where I live where is the help for them?
12 :
helping them do what? get even more poor??? or helping the rich to get even more rich??? until you live in a poor neighborhood with a poor paying job; dont ask questions you dont even know the answer to
13 :
again lies, no sources because you are full of it
14 :
1. He provides the Poor with Tax Relief, that way they can save some money. Poor have no money/income to have Tax Relief-He is taxing middle class 33 cents of every dollar made while the rich are taxed 20 cents of every dollar made. Trickle down economy remember? The stimulas check went right from the middle classes mailbox and into their gas tanks. Beware of the current "fuel cost drop"-the same thing happened from Labor Day 2006 until two days after the election. It rose from then untill two weeks ago. The Oil Producers don't want to see their friendly Republican support lose their Congressional Seats as they did in 2006 so they hope to lull the masses into thinking all is well since prices are dropping. Perhaps September was too late in 2006 so this time it began in July. 2. He makes sure that their children are getting a good education by making sure schools are using the No Child Left Behind Act. I am a tutor for the NCLB act. You have no clue what is and is not being done for the children. 3. He is getting the Poor OFF Welfare and back to work, that way they can make money on their on to support their family and not using welfare checks to get by. I have never been jobless or poor until 2004 thanks to the crappy economy not even a well experienced and highly educated person (B.S. Degree) can find decent jobs. Me-I can only find Self-Contracted/No Benifits/Part Time work under the NCLB program. 4. I have noticed that poverty in my community and in the state I reside in is on the decline for the first time in years. So glad to hear your community is doing well. My community is having record breaking numbers going to get food from the M.E.N.D. agancy here. (Meet Each Need With Dignity, Pacomia, California).

the won't give him any credit for anything. six our of the last two years was an economic, historical success, and the last two years have been under the Democratically controlled Congress so it is no coincident. among his numerous accomplishment are: Changed the tone in the White House, restoring HONOR and DIGNITY to the presidency. Has reintroduced the mention of God and faith into public discourse. Signed the No Child Left Behind Act, delivering the most dramatic education reforms in a generation (challenging the soft bigotry of low expectations). The very liberal California Teachers union ran radio ads against the accountability provisions of this Act. Announced "Jobs for the 21st Century," a comprehensive plan to better prepare workers for jobs in the new millennium by strengthening post-secondary education and job training, and by improving high school education. worked to provide vouchers to low-income students in persistently failing schools to help with costs of attending private schools. (Blocked in the Senate.) Established a $2.4 billion fund to help states implement teacher accountability systems. Increased funding for the Troops-to-Teachers program, which recruits former military personnel to become teachers Killed the Kyoto Global Warming Treaty. Established a $10 million grant program to promote private conservation initiatives. Significantly eased field-testing controls of genetically engineered crops Successfully executed two wars in the aftermath of 9/11/01: Afghanistan and Iraq. 50 million people who had lived under tyrannical regimes now live in freedom. and faced natural disasters unprescedent in any other Presidency. Saddam Hussein is now dead. His two murderous sons are dead. All but a handful of the regime's senior members were killed or captured and the surge has worked. for a complete list, see link provided: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1163304/posts has tripled direct humanitarian and development aid to the world's most impoverished continent since taking office http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/12/30/AR2006123000941.html
16 :
Good Lord, start watching something less biased than FOX. Come on, you don't even sound like you're remotely in touch with reality.
17 :
If they did not know it before Bush became President, the poor certainly knew it after he became President. And I would safely guess a lot more middle class people became poor too.
18 :
I praise him all the time: when I go thru the daily grocery ads PRAYING the hot dogs are on sale so I will have something to eat this week and when I see that homeless person that USE TO HAVE A JOB and a house but is now living on the street with his kids. I praise him when I go to get gas and it's at $5.00 a gallon or when I go to the MD and they tell me it will take a year and a half's pay checks just to pay for needed medical treatment. which soon won't matter cause I will be dead.. I appreciate ALL he's done for us.

Who is responsible for the Economy situation today?

Who is responsible for the Economy situation today?
The current financial crisis facing the United States of America and the world began with the US home ownership debacle and President William Jefferson Clinton. In 1994, Clinton signed a bill to promote low-income home ownership that Business Week calls "one that argues for creative measures to promote homeownership" for those applicants who did not qualify for fixed mortgages. And these applicants came in droves and were almost always approved - no matter their credit histories or ability to pay. Said "creative ownership" began the heavy distribution of ARMs (Adjustable Rate Mortgages) that ensued. These ARMs began low but, are based on the market. As the market changed, the rates - and subsequent monthly payments for homeowners - rose to rates that the homeowners could no longer afford. Foreclosures on the ARM properties began and, like Dominos cascading onto one another, the current financial meltdown began. Both Fannie Mae and Freddie MAC were essentially and quietly taken over by the Clinton Administration and his operatives and supporters - including Franklin Raines who ran Fannie Mae and ended up with over $6M his first year - raided both corporations which had become their personal slush funds. From his days of running Fannie Mae, Franklin Raines is reported to have accumulated a personal net worth of over $100M. Another Clintonian buddy - Jamie Gorelick (remember her from the CIA/FBI fiasco?) - is also said to be personally worth in excess of $100M. It appears that some in government service CAN achieve wealth beyond the wildest dreams of most of us! They just have to sell their souls to the highest bidder and be willing to betray their fellow Americans. This fortune was accumulated during her years (1997-2003) as Vice Chairman of Fannie Mae. The fraudulent accounting scheme which apparently allowed for Democrats Raines, Gorelick and other Clinton supporters to achieve vast fortunes in a very short period of time was brought to light in 2004. As mortgage firms and investment banks heavily leveraged by ARM mortgages started to be adversely affected by the number of foreclosures, the current financial crisis began in earnest. Democrats Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) also the Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee - of all things - and Democrat presidential Candidate Barack Obama (who is reported to be the 3rd largest recipient of Fannie Mae political contributions - said to be over $100K in less than 4 years) have also benefited greatly from these Democrats' personal slush funds. However, in the worst cut to We the People from the knife of corruption, the very people who created this problem will now be in charge of "correcting" it! Does this make any sense to anyone except those who have received and continue to receive funds from these institutions?????????? If we really want to get rid of these corruptions we have to vote these sleazes out of office. That requires courage. The only question remaining is: Do we have the internal fortitude to do it? If the answer is "No," you can kiss your money and your country good bye and prepare for an inevitable serfdom. http://www.businessweek.com/the_thread/hotproperty/archives/2008/02/ clintons_drive.html http://www.allbusiness.com/finance-insurance/993847-1.html http://www.dollarsandsense.org/archives/2007/0507karger.html http://volokh.com/posts/1216060102.shtml http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_091808/content/ 01125107.guest.html http://americantaxpayer.wordpress.com/2008/09/18/barney-frankchuck- schumer-role-in-failure-of-fannie-maefreddie-mac/ People wake up stop listing to your liberal bias media and get the facts!!!

I can't believe the poeple are still blaming Clinton for the mess that Bush has created over the last eight years. Clinton created a surplus. Bush started a war, spent money like a drunken sailor and turned that surplus into a huge deficit.
11 :
Republicans caused it. Phil Gramm stripped away all regulations on the banking and housing industries. Without his actions, clinton's would have been totally innoculous. If Bush had been able to stop vacationing long enough to read the brief about OBL's attack being imminent, he could have done what every previous president did --- and kept the country safe. If that had happened we don't invade Afganistan and we might not even invade Iraq. That is a ton of debt not incurred that would not devalue our dollar and spike the cost of oil (cost of oil moved as the dollar devalued). All Republican ideas.
12 :
The problem isn't the fact that they make loans. Its the fact that nobody was watching, nobody was there to say, "NO" when they made loans to people that didn't have a down payment or the means to repay the loan. Personally I find it amazingly wrong that they were making those loans simply because those people were minorities.

can anyone tell me if this article about the end of america is true?

can anyone tell me if this article about the end of america is true?
"In the last few days, it’s become more and more obvious that the country is headed straight for a war with North Korea. There really isn’t much we can do to stop it now, aside from nuking the whole place and calling it a day, which we cannot and should not do. When the United States military began conducting joint military operations with South Korea, it stood as a confirmation that should North Korea act against South Korea (which at this point is inevitable), we’re going to back the South Koreans. That’s great and noble and all, but the fact is that we cannot afford it. We already have such a high debt to China that we’ll never be able to pay it off. Even if we try, we cannot possibly grasp how long it will take. With the way our country is headed, spending money like crazy, we will never pay it off, meaning we owe China and we can’t deliver. Just a few weeks ago, the government announced that it had purchased an additional 600 billion dollars worth of bonds from the Chinese government. This alone serves to weaken the value of the dollar 10% over night, and up to 25-30% within months. This means that if you have $100 in the bank, it’ll be worth $70-75 in a matter of months. When China says no the next time we ask for money, we’re pretty much fucked. If our number one loan source refuses to pay for our wars or problems any longer, where will we turn? Other countries will see that China is refusing and they won’t loan money to us either. Our dollar will be useless, meaning you can’t use it to buy food or clothes or pay for the things you take for granted every single day. We’ll be in a worse position than we were in during the Great Depression. And on top of it all, we’ll still have two wars on our plate. So, at this point, our money is worthless and we can’t pay to fight the nuclear and chemical opposition coming from North Korea. It would make sense that we turn to our allies, right? In case you haven’t heard, Wikileaks released an absolutely MASSIVE collection of documents today regarding the relationships that the United States has with its allies. Earlier this week, the government warned Canada that it would damage relationships with our allies and lead to “countless deaths.” (If we need to warn Canada that they’re going to be angry with us, what are other countries going to think?) Basically, we’ll have no one to back us up, no money, and a country with nuclear weapons (I don’t care what the media says, North Korea has nuclear capabilities) fighting against us. So we turn to the UN, right? Wrong. The Wikileaks documents also reveal that Hillary Clinton ordered U.S. diplomats to spy on UN leaders, meaning they’re going to be less than happy about helping us. (Good job, Hillary.) In essence, America is fucked. We’re going to face rougher times in the next few years than any of us could have even imagined. Our safety is at stake. Our lives are at stake. It’s not only possible, but probable that this could be the end of the United States of America as we know it. I don’t think people understand the magnitude of this situation. It means that we might be looking at the end of an empire. We could be a third-world country in a matter of months. So what do we do? Prepare for it. Know how to survive if everything goes wrong. Think about what you’d need to do if an emergency arises. Most of all, ORDER A PASSPORT THIS WEEK IF YOU DON’T ALREADY HAVE ONE. If you need to make a run for it, you’re going to need a passport to get into a different country. I can’t express the amount of urgency of the situation. America is at a time right now that our country could very easily cease to exist. Please try to understand that and act upon it. I care about you all enough to not want to see anything bad happen to you, but at this point, it’s virtually inevitable. Most of all, prepare yourselves. America is in a bad state of affairs right now it’s not going to get any better any time soon." i really don't know what to think, can anyone tell me if it's true or not?

I think you're assessment of the situation is somewhat accurate unfortunately. It might be a little fatalistic to assume that in 2 months these things will come to pass, but unless a there is a significant change the future looks very bleak. I can't help but get the impression that this war scenario has been in the works for awhile though. When the economy is falling it seems to be the typical response that war is inevitable. (ie ww2) I haven't heard about this Wiki Leaks stuff but it definitely isn't going to be doing our nation any favors.
2 :
Some information may be right but i'd like to know who the author is. I do not think we will ever be a third world nation because we have too many skills and a local and national infrastructure. We have lots of fertile land that would be better after they quit growing one kind of potato and using such heavy doses of pesticides and herbicides. We have plenty of trees, pure water (except for the greed exploits of industry). If we get into a war with N Korea, it'll probably go nuke and you many as well stay put, because we'll all go up in flames. If we go down, unfortunately there will be a lot who'll go down with us. Sounds like a drama queen to me. I'm not running, so I may be the only left. Wow all that purple majesty would be mine - if its not all burnt up.
