My biggest problem with the Bush years was the amount of money being spent. Everybody can use different metrics in grading a president, but by the one I use Obama is far worse. Its funny to me because I know people who told me they were voting for Obama so he'd get spending under control.

I've seen lots of seemingly conflicting charts n' graphs on this, but I've yet to see any numbers that don't show Obama hasn't spent more or at the very least is on a trajectory to spend much more.
Here's the other problem: wars, despite what the bumper stickers say, do have beginning and an end. Government programs not only don't end, they have annual escalators.
If you think the president started a war to make money, I can't really help you. Don't you think there are ways for the most powerful man in the world to make money without needing to go to war?

Deemed the OP's story the furthest thing from credible when, upon scrolling through the site, I see articles titled:
Arpaio investigation: Obama might be Kenyan
Look who wants to enact Islamic law
and
9 of 10 in poll: Time for impeachment [where the first sentence is: "An unscientific poll today revealed that nearly 9 in 10 respondents say it’s time now to move on impeachment proceedings for Barack Obama."]Ok.

Clinton didn't get congressional approval for the Kosovo campaign, and Obama didn't do it for Libya.
Under the War Powers Act, The President can pretty much attack anyone he wishes as long as its less than 60 days.
There is a long list of wars not approved by Congress before the War Powers Act was enacted.
If the US bombed Syria for 60 days, and then handed the operation over to NATO there isn't much you could impeach Obama for because that would be legal.

I feel you're saying contradictory things. On one hand he didn't take us to war to make money, on the other hand he took us to war knowing he'd make money. This is basically a distinction without a difference.
I mean, these guys were already mega rich to begin with, yet these things are on their mind? I feel this plays into the gigantic silly Bush "Chimphitlerburton" narratives we were beat over the head with for four years.
As for favoring contractors over soliders, don't you suppose the fact that nobody sheds a tear for a contractor vs. an 18 year old GI might be factored in there? Consider it a rhetorical question, no offense but I don't feel I'm going to get especially objective answers from you on any questions involving George W. Bush.

i would like to say, though...
whatever AG lacks in objectivity... he makes up in passion...
for real, though, on a real note... if you all were to meet him and know him, you would know he is a great guy, salt of the earth, shirt off the back kind of guy...
politically? we rarely see eye to eye, but he is, at least, a good enough guy that it never bothers our freindship.
so, while i do get that it is all in spirited debate, in reality, he reads a lot of this shit on everything and hears the pundits, and it pisses him off cuz he loves this country so much...

"his masters". Wow. Lost in this is that I'm certainly no fan of Bush, but with your type, saying anything other then "he stole the election and let dick cheney murder our children for oil" is implicit endorsement.
But its okay, as you're clearly an intellectual so I'm sure you're correct in these matters.

The problem with people who say stuff like this is they can't cite their sources or provide any detailed explanation of their opinion or belief.
I imagine you think he is awful because he "socialized Medicare" or because he is a Muslim.
