What a joke!!! This member is a new member today and this is the only post. I didn't think you could advertise on this site. If you go to the site all the posts are good posts. No idea what it costs, or what is involved, other than supplying an email address.

Your gig is up - go elsewhere and quit preying on innocent people. This has SCAM written all over it.

Sorry, but right after I posted, the original post was removed.

Bush and his band of criminals did this, own this and should be prosecuted.

as a symbol of ReTHUG folly and punishment for war crimes

Hooray for Ed, and Happy Father's Day to both of them.

Not only is Mr. Reich spot on, he is feisty as well. Love it!

Huge K&R

said it from the beginning. And he is right about Bush and Reagan. They were both stupid as fence posts.

Their purpose was to fuck us all over to enrich the top 1%ers. In that, they succeeded brilliantly.

Yes, he and his cronies are, and it can't be said too often.

Obama is like that poor bastard in the circus, coming behind that continuously shitting elephant with the bucket and shovel.

"...The same can be said about politics."

should be inscribed on a bronze plaque!

Experience speaks.

K and R!

Way to go - Happy Father's Day!

to pretend that Obama has been 'cleaning it up' is beyond misleading.

The "Wars on Terror" gave us the Patriot Act, Homeland Security, NSA mass spying on Americans, secret laws, secret courts, the murder of due process and multiple Constitutional amendments, and the war on journalism, whistleblowers, and dissent.

Obama declined to punish the perpetrators and has been complicit in defending and vigorously extending all of these.

And Iran tried to help by getting Bin Laden before Iraq. Obama can return to this place, and set up peace talks in the northern Middle East. Atroscities cause by Bush are still occurring, which adds up to, there is no way this is Obama's fault. The World is still compling the list to Bush's Watch. Let Obama and the peace talks procede, which may be part of keeping the elected govrenment in tack in Baghdad.

That's EXACTLY how it went, and EXACTLY what happened. This dad oughta know, with a frame of time-reference like that. I can remember back as far as Kennedy. I was an Eisenhower baby but way too young to remember much of that at all, except there'd be news stories about some old dude who used to be somebody who kept having heart attacks. But I was a KID. Just completely unaware with no context or anything. Too young to remember anything besides what Mom fixed me for breakfast. Had no idea who or what Ike was til I studied about him later. And I don't remember a LOT about Kennedy either, except how he brought a new youth to the White House after the Grandpa/Grandma era in there had ended. THIS new President had kids who not only lived in the White House but were LITTLE kids, kinda like me. And their mom had brown (not gray) hair and no wrinkles and was young and fashionable and smart-looking like my mom was. I could relate to that, personally. And I did. I now have lived during the administrations of 11 presidents, and remember 10 of them.

Our elders sometimes have eyesight (and memory) that fades. THIS dad still sees (and remembers) things VERY clearly.

Are we going to get someone even worse than Bush?

as a sign to go hard right.

Then in 2016 when the Millennials show up to the polls and for the first time outnumber boomers at voting the legitimate rape party will get the every loving shit slapped out of them.

If you aren't a lib why are you even here?

Yes INDEED

Happy Father's Day, Mr. Reich.

eom

Heez goin' ta hayulll anyway.

Don't tred um mee! Wee hoo!




Please note this is complete sarcasm. Robert Reich has done a fantastic job of getting the word out about income inequality.

bush and President Obama.

"Obama has spent his entire administration cleaning up Bush's shit"

what i like about our elders who are more elder than myself is there is no hesitancy to say it as one sees it and not mince words. no time for bullshit.

Lexicon, hopemountain.

If you don't follow Robert on fb yet, I highly recommend it

Hopefully this story will spread

I too believe in damage done, Dubya was the worst and Reagan a close second

Wasn't Bush's evidence the same thing that led President Clinton to also condemn Iraq and Saddam? Didn't Hillary vote for military action after receiving the same intel? Wasn't it Saddam who lied and covered up in part to avoid looking weak to the Iranians? Iraq lost the Persian Gulf war and wasn't abiding by any of the stipulations in the agreement they made General Schwartzkopf? I'm sincerely wondering here.

dimson over phoney intel they trumped up. Lots of people died, lots of neocons made lots of money. No one else actually started a war and it was all about the oil. Lots of info on DU using that search button up on top.
And welcome to DU.

We know now that Saddam Hussein was doing a lot of bluffing and obfuscating when it came to possible WMD in order to keep the Iranians from sensing weakness. After September 11 the US had to take threats more seriously than before. The Iraqi military had been targeting US and Allied flights that were enforcing the no fly zone from the Persian Gulf War. Also Hussein was fomenting terrorism by doing things like paying families of suicide bombers that targeted Israelis. Of course the Strategic interest of the US relates to oil as our economy depends heavily on oil as a component of our energy costs. These energy costs relate directly to GDP growth which in turn impacts lives all over our country..

Are you claiming Iraq didn't destroy their WMD chemical stock? Bush's "evidence" related, among other things, to Iraq developing nuclear weapons and long range missiles. Bush's "evidence", in part, related to Al Qaeda presence in Iraq. Etc. All false.

In short, not the same as Bill Clinton.

Hillary voted based on the Intel that filtered through the Bush administration, not the raw data.

I too am wondering here.

I replied to both of the replies to me in the post above.

That Iraq did in fact do so is an important part of any discussion of the Bush administration's misleading the world into invading Iraq. The same applies to an atomic weapons program and long range delivery systems.

The misinformation about them, creating a fiction wherein they existed, trace back to the Bush administration. It sounded like you don't agree with that.

Saw a conservatives response to this quote from Reich On FB and it was full of crazy. Basically still believes that Saddam hid WMD in Syria and that this whole mess is the presidents for withdrawing and releasing the five top terrorists in the entire world for Bergdahl. There are some seriously delusional fox fed nutcases out there folks. Be careful!

Robert Reich's father is spot on. We were lied into Iraq.

Reagan was the worst president until George W came along where I believed he stole the title of worst president.
-Airplane

He paved the way with Ideas for both Regan and BUSH! All there should have their graves violated!

I couldn't agree more. And, thanks for sharing.

Well, if he does decide to run, I may consider registering as a Dem, rather than an Independent so that I could actually vote in MD's primaries.
