Clinton also called it "my government" from time to time and even though they hated him with a passion the right wing loons didn't go nuts over it. Now they are. Why is that you suppose?
    There wasn't anything GWB did that didn't generate outrage around here. This place has never shown a fraction of the outrage toward Obama that went on during the Bush years. No matter what Bush did, people went nuts around here. Hadn't seen that toward any president before or since.

        It's always outrage when directed at one's own party and it's appropriate criticism when directed at the others. It allows one to be hypocritical without the guilt.

          It never ceases to amaze me how we have the time and money to pass laws but we have no time and money to enforce them.

            Is this really a surprise though?

            Look at this thread:
            board.uscho.com/showthread.php?98529-What-is-your-political-stance

            Of the 47 respondants, 28 were at least leaning left. The vast majority were also libertarians.

            Among those on the right, there was a total of what? Six or seven that regularly post in the politics threads?

                You must despise how Obama openly and regularly says he's not going to enforce various laws.

                    I'd be curious to find out if there's an updated version and whether anyone's (or even the average poster's) views have changed.

                      I still have the graph. Maybe I'll start a thread and compare the results.

                        Do you remember which posters had the "fake" results? I remember aparch (or was it ameherstblackbear?) tried to see if (s)he could get a certain score but later flagged it as such.

                              But I think he doesn't enforce them because he doesn't like the laws, but Congress, for whatever reason, chooses to not get rid of them.

                                So, we're not enforcing rape law because we don't like it? Oh, yeah, I forgot. The Women's body has ways to just shut that **** down.
