Do Americans feel guilty for voting for Bush now that there is a world recession

LOL, what the hell does bush have to do with your economy?! Bush barely has anything to do with the USAs economy... Its all congresses fault anyways, they havent done crap but sit in there chairs and get paid...

This is the most retarded thread ive ever seen

[QUOTE="Video_Game_King"]

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"][QUOTE="UnknownSniper65"]I actually blame congress more than Bush...if Iraq turns out alright I won't view his presidency as a complete failure.SylentButDeadly

Something we all know :P. Seriously, there was no proof of WMD's.

But there where WMDs...

I ate them all

I never voted for Bush, but I know people that did. On November 2nd, 2004, I asked her why she was going to vote for Bush after Iraq and everything and she said that it's because of how commited to religion he is. So basically what I got from that conversation was that anyone that is President in the United States can do whatever they want as long that in every speech they say "God bless America", "Jesus", ect.

People will continue to vote for the Republicans because people here see them as the party of god and that's all they need. Hopefully that has changed since 2004 and people will vote for the right guy, not the guy who says something about religion every speech.

No, I don't feel sorry for voting for Bush.

Furthermore, the US isn't in recession. If your country is in recession, I'm sorry to hear that. Tighten your belts and you'll pull through.

I apologize, I'm just so damn sick of this hypocrisy. I mean, when you guys actually do something relevant you all gather up around it, just look at world war 2. How many God damn times haven't I heard the phrase "we saved your arses in world war 2"...or "we invented "random thing"...but as soon as the **** hits the fan, it's no longer "we", instead there's a bunch of excuses.

What the ****?

You live in England; you guys get pissed when we do something right (who saved your ***es in WW1 and WW2, again?), and now you're pissed that the business cycle is down (which isn't even the government's fault).

You're pathetic. Just shut the hell up and grow some balls, you piece of crap. What have YOU done for the world, other than create us?

Hey, wait a minute! You didn't create us, we had to whoop your asses first, and then create ourselves! And I'm also guessing you (yourself) haven't done **** for the world (you just started a blatant anti-America topic on a gaming website, ffs), so you don't even get that merit.

So here's my question: Do you feel guilty for creating such a waste-of-internet topic, while the intelligent world is doing their best to get the economy moving again?

No? I didn't think so. This thread obviously proves you aren't part of the "intelligent world", so I wouldn't expect you to comprehend what the word "guilt" even means.

Goodbye.

Whicker89

WW1: When we joined, we ended the stalemate. We may not have singlehandedly "saved the world", but we pushed the western front back towards Germany, something you did NOT. Hey, you helped though, thanks for that.

WW2: When we joined, we CERTAINLY saved you, thought it's fairly likely Russia could've pushed to Berlin without the Normandy invasion. Great Britain was the last Allied country standing between Berlin and the Americas, so you were next in line to get blitzed. And also, if not for our involvement, even if Russia had taken Berlin you guys might be communist right now...

Not sure where bookclubs come into this...

Yea because after America joined the war magically ended a short time after with America having no part in it

Hmm, ignorance...it has a bitter taste.

In Europe, without U.S intervention, Britain would have held Germany at the Channel and had pushed Italy out of Eygpt. The Soviet Union had pushed Germany away from Moscow; and held them at a stalemate for the time being. Germany had no way of reaching across the Channel, and the airwar was moving in British favour from 1941 onwards - before U.S entry into it.

Britain would have to adapt quicker, but the facts all remain that Germany had no chance of taking Britain. The RAF was raiding Axis Europe by day and night before the famed "Mighty 8th" came on the scene. It wasn't all Britain; as we had our entire Empire to fall back on - which kept up supplies of man and machine all through the war.

The war would have been harder won, but it's obvious that Germany would have not had total victory. Obvious to anyone with a brain.

And to say that USA "saved the world" during WW1 is nonsense. During WWI both sides were equally bad/good, demonizing WWI Germans is purely the result of post WWII culture.

Poor? Its a little recession where going through. Its very natural and happens most often near election time. Trust me, America isnt going poor. Hell, this month my dad bought 300,000 dollars worth of cars already adding to the 200,000 we have right now.

This proves you know nothing about the state the US economy is in right now. People I know are losing jobs left and right and have to cut back majorly. This isn't just a "little recession we're going through." This is a much bigger one that has left a lot of people jobless and, well, poor. The fact that your father bought $300,000 worth of cars means that you are a rich republican who knows nothing about living with a tight budget or having to find job and work ridiculous hours so you can put food on the table...because that's what most Americans are doing right now. Seriously, just take a trip to the poor side of your community...You'll see how "little" this recession is.

And it hasn't got much to do with UK investors relying on American corporations...the global economic system is far more complicated than that. If the EU was the source, it would affect the US in the same way as the US affects the EU now.

I never claim you did. My point was that the American economy relies just as heavily on the Chinese and the EU economies, and that your argument can be used against the US as well.

We're capitalist here. The Gov doesnt control the economy. Your just looking for a scapegoat for your problems.

The topic should have ended with this post. The President doesn't even control the economy in America, let alone the rest of the world.
