Joy Behar to Teabag B.S.er: Where Was Tea Party During Bush Administration?

[The True Adonis]

Bear with me here, Last video.  This one comes from my Youtube channel.

My hero,
Huey P. Long, the Kingfish, illustrates the difference between Republicans and Democrats 80 years ago. Long`s words are just as relevant today as the same bark and tree are used to make the same medicine today. The ironic thing is, both "medicines" are snake oil. Classic Huey Long.

Couldn't have said it better myself.  Lets not forget that there was potentially 2.5 trillion in lost revenue from the bush tax cuts to a small number of Americans.  Not only that but we got into two wars, one because of lies and misinformation that has cost us not only financially (much more than Obama has ever done) but it destroyed the lives and families of thousands of Americans over lies from the president.  Yet we still didn't have this tea party then, nor did we have 333 crying for a civil war.  Lunacy.  

I just love how we refer to giving money back to the people who earned it as "costing" the government. Where would that money have gone if it had not gone to the people? It probably would have been wasted. The government was flooded with revenues later into the decade. What you are saying is atleast very close to a non sequiter.

[Soul Crusher]

Good point MMk.  Its not the damn govts money!

Where bush was wrong was the drug bill, no child left behind, amnesty for illegals, and not pushing harder for entitlement reform.

[MM2K]

Did Bush take over GM and Chrysler?Did Bush dictate what CEOs could make?Did Bush take over the health care system?Did Bush try to take over the financial system?Did Bush give billions and billions of our money to filthy unions?Did Bush try to take over the energy industry?I dont recall Bush doing any of that.

I challenge anyone to answer Billy 's question one item at a time. If no one can answer it, then Im going to assume you people dont have any arguments and are just mindless Obama zombies who are trying desperately to cling to the belief that your hero is the messiah and would fix alll things, but slowly, but surely, you are coming to the realization that he is a disaster of a president and you are just in denial.

There is no point to answer it since the Bailouts that Billy cited all happened under George Bush.  His question would be impossible to answer because its not based in fact correctly.

Exactly.

Bush LOANED money to GM. Obama BOUGHT shares in GM. Obama FIRED the CEO of GM. What is it that Billy is saying that is not fact?

[Dos Equis]

Not to mention all the talk about capping salaries.

That enables the public to make a return on their investment.  This is always protocol for Government Bailouts since 1970 and even before.

Take a look at this site.

http://www.propublica.org/special/government-bailouts

There is a tab labeled "What happened" for each bailout.  In that section there is a link you can click on that says "What happened after the Bailout".

You can then see that the purchasing of shares for later resale at a guaranteed tax payer profit is the norm.

I also do not mind posting these results, but I think it may have more impact if you are able to see it for yourself.

For instance, here is the result of the Government Bailout of Chrysler in 1980:

Chrysler   1980   By 1983, seven years earlier than the scheduled deadline, Chrysler had paid back its loan with the aid of the guarantees from the U.S. government. The corporation bought back the 14.4 million stock warrants  given to the government in exchange for the loan guarantee. Because Chrysler's finances had improved and its stock had bounced back -- it reported $1.7 billion in profits for the second quarter of 1984 -- the government netted a profit of more than $660 million from its bailout investment.

Bush did the EXACT same thing with the Airline Industry.

Airline Industry   2001   The Chrysler and airline bailout plans had a commonality: stock warrants. A provision inserted into the ATSS Act, which allowed the Treasury to purchase stock at below-market prices from any airline receiving a loan guarantee, allowed the Treasury to earn money. Reports varied on the total net profit, ranging from $141.7 million to $327 million. The loan guarantee program suffered one loss of about $23.2 million when ATA Airlines filed for bankruptcy protection.

Who gives a shit where the protesters were during the last 8 years?! Does anyone here really think the majority of Americans weren't pissed off during Bush last term? The anger was there as was evidenced by a Democrat victory with promises of a 180 degree turn from where the country was headed. Through that historic election outcome many people have been temporarily pacified because they think a black guy as president means everything has actually changed politically but in reality its more of the same shit and that is why you are seeing more vocalized anger than ever before.

KRS1 explained this in Fall of the Republic and it makes total sense. Joy needs to shut her hole, I cant wait till her show goes off the air.

I have posted that clip many times and it was it still to me the best commentary yet on this situation.

QUIT MAKING SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Someone send that video to that annoying cow, please!

[George Whorewell]

I'm sorry- If your challenge to the tea parties involves anything connected to something that came out of Joy Behars mouth, you unintentionally owned yourself and should consider meeting with a psychiatrist.

[quadzilla456]

Where were the teabaggers? They were not yet mobilized because the extent of damage done by republicans and democrats alike were not yet known by many people.

Where was the USA and Britain in the early 1930s when Churchill warned against Hitler?? They were on the sidelines watching and not aware of what was developing. Same goes for the tea party movement.

Bush certainly fucked up nobody is excusing him but people only realized the magnitude by 2008. It was a gradual tsunami of fuckups. And now Obama is adding to it. And let's just make it clear it is not really Obama and Bush that's responsible. It's their puppet masters. They are the actors that impliment their masters' wishes. I guess they are responsible but not the masterminds.

In the 30s the United States citizenry knew full well of Hitler and what he was doing.  It was all over the Radio and the Newspapers.  The Public and government was largely isolationist and did not support any involvement in helping Britain whatsoever, although Roosevelt was secretly providing aid to Britain at the time.  Some Historians argue that Roosevelt was put in a position to where he had to wait for a direct attack, Pearl Harbor, in order to get the public behind the war because at the time over 90 percent did not want to enter any conflict overseas.

Exactly they did not want to enter conflict life was still too good (even though it was a depression at least it was still not yet involvement in war). Then when things took a shit turn for the worst (Pearl Harbor) and their hands were forced they had no choice but to enter the war. And it was easy because now the public wanted revenge!

Same for tea party movement. Things were still looking good for those that did not look under the surface from 2000-2007. Then people became more aware about outsourcing, falling wages, corruption in DC, pyramid schemes, fake wars, etc. The list just goes on one steaming stinking pile of shit upon shit.

Then you reach the tipping point.

"Not to mention all the talk about capping salaries.  "

Any CEO who needs OUR TAX DOLLARS to keep a company afloat, and keep getting a fat salary SHOULD have some limitations to how much he can earn.

it's akin to a welfare mother REFUSING to accept a $600 check cause she thinks she deserves $1000.  Insane. 

it's a fvcking handout - if you don't like the terms of it, try running the company your own way (um bankruptcy).

[MCWAY]

When McCain supported TARP and said the "fundamentals of the economy" were strong, he lost the election right there

mccain lost the election when he picked the retard for vp

Wrong again!! In fact, the only time McCain surged ahead of Obama in the polls was AFTER he picked Palin. Before the economic collapse, he was ahead of Obama, with Palin bringing out supporters to his campaign stops, by the thousands.

[LurkerNoMore]

As soon as Palin opened her mouth, McCain's chances fell apart completely.  Each week it was another episode of the idiot having a train wreck.  Once the nation got a daily remind and refresher course on how big an idiot she is with her words and actions, it only pushed the moderates, independents and some Republicans over to the Obama side.

But then again that is what happens when you are foolish enough to try to capture the Hillary vote with a poor copy. 

[BM OUT]

Once again idiot libs posting.The banks have paid back the money[or are on the way to paying it back].The government has made 50 billion on the TARP bailout.How much have we made on the GM deal,the assinine stimulus deal?GM was taken over by Obama.Bush bailed them out,ObAMA RUNS IT!!!He dictates who the CEOS are ,what cars they can make.Its the governments company now and they have not paid back the money,they have paid back 13% of the money.This is more lib/union/democrat lies.Ford,which didnt take Obamas money,is kicking the shit out of GM ,which isnt a surprise when a community organiser tries to run a company.

Fannie and Freddy failed for one reason.DEMOCRATS!!!Bush tried to do something about it,the democrats stymied him,led by fag Frank Chris Dodd and Racist Maxine Waters.

Now,Obama is bailing ot idiots who took loans and cant pay them back,took over the student loan program,is in the process of taking over the financial industry,he has taken over the health care industry,and will soon try to take over the energy industry.All this from a little community agitator who has no expieriance in anything but rabble rousing.The future looks bright indeed.
