When do radio stations/people start playing Christmas music / putting up Christmas decorations?
Banning books, requiring the 10 Commandments in classrooms, attempting to force schools to make the Bible part of the curriculum is “shoving that shit down our throats”.

In other news Hitler wasn’t an anti semite, and said he loved all Jews.China denied involvement, stating it opposes hacking in all forms.

Wasn't LBJ's war on poverty declared an epic failure, as well as his decision to escalate the Vietnam War? Middle of the road is a highly optimistic reading of LBJ's presidency.

As for Biden, we were already moving on from COVID when he took office. His actions extended it far beyond what it should've been in terms of economic policy and impact, and he implemented one of the worst, self-owned inflation periods in our country's history. Real wages were down over the 4 years of his Presidency, something we haven't seen in a very long time. Couple that with his disastrous actions on the global scene (chaotic withdraw from Afghanistan, failure to deter Russia's invasion of Ukraine, failure to seriously put a dent in Russia's economy after the invasion by refusing to touch Russia's petroleum exports, and failure to address Iran's growing ambitions in the Middle East (although he got a huge assist he didn't work for when Israel confronted Hamas and Hezbollah and when Sryian rebels rose up there). And we found out near the end of his administration that the orchestrations played behind the scenes to limit free speech and to censor opposing opinions would've made Orwell blush. Biden's administration has been a colossal failure, and capped off with a return of the regime that preceded him and left in disgrace only puts a cherry on top of how bad his Presidency was. He wasn't as bad as Buchanan, but Biden will forever be in the lower realms of Presidential rankings.
Isn't that a self-inflicted "obstacle"? It was LBJ who ramped up the military spending in Vietnam, it's not like it was done to him. If he didn't have enough funding for his social programs because of the military build-up that's a self-own on his part.kalm wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2025 8:03 amLBJ’s war on poverty and Great Society programs were also considered a success by many despite the political obstacles faced and limiting factors (like war spending) and political support after he left office.GannonFan wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2025 7:41 am

Medicare and medicaid alone pulled millions out of poverty.
Not perfect but they helped ordinary folks which seems to be a continuing hang up for the economic right who have been trying to dismantle them as similar to New Deal programs since their inception. For what? Lower taxes and more billionaires?![]()
Sigh…we’ve been through this before. You know who took credit for and loved Biden’s spending on nothing? Every Republican rep whose district received checks for infrastructure and manufacturing expansion as a result.GannonFan wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2025 8:14 amIsn't that a self-inflicted "obstacle"?

LBJ is better than Biden - yes, Medicare and Medicaid are significant achievements. Vietnam was an epic disaster, hence LBJ's limited standing. Biden's profligate spending on really nothing substantial while recklessly letting loose damaging inflation will be something we're paying for for decades long after Biden's gone. Biden was a small man who didn't rise to the occasion and the country is poorer for it. That's a bad President.
Shhh…quiet….Caribbean Hen wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2025 8:39 am Biden was horrible and had no voice of reason to talk him out of bad decisions, this might be for a few reasons though:
1) he was to belligerent and stubborn and senile to listen and understand good advice (I doubt there was much)
2) he wasn't really the one running things, Biden wasn't always a progressive radical like he was as President. I'm sure the radicals saw empty headed Biden as a dream come true.
One of the biggest crimes of the administration is trying to push Biden through his 4 years knowing full well he was in decline; this is reckless and very selfish behavior..... even criminal given the duties and responsibilities of a President to protect and serve all Americans
He's the worst President you could ever imagine but I'll do some research on James Buchanon![]()
