If a GOP President had killed bin Laden, doubled the Dow, saved the auto industry, and

[scheming daemons]

..pulled us out of an economic tailspin in which the GDP was shrinking at -9% and we were hemorrhaging 800,000 jobs per month...

.... they'd be carving his bust into Mount Rushmore as we speak.

[cilla4progress]

1. So true!

[jsr]

2. A white GOP president

Gotta be the right color...

[whopis01]

10. Isn't that a redundant statement? n/t

[quaker bill]

3. True, but a GOP President will never accomplish that

so no worries at Mt. Rushmore.

[InsultComicDog]

4. I heard a line like this earlier this week

only the end was "they'd be naming airports after him."

[GETTINGTIRED]

5. with a golden chisel.....

[Cha]

6. The whole country would know about it..there wouldn't be lies

turning the victories into defeats. but, it would never happen anyway.. the gop was too busy tanking the economy, starting a war with Iraq, and shouting to all as loud as their big mouths would let them that.. DETROIT SHOULD GO BANKRUPT.

7. Exactly. They're two-faced about everything. What if Chelsea Clinton had been pregnant...

... with some punk's baby when Clinton was running, like Palin's daughter was? Can you imagine the outrage from the Right? But no, they acted like (whatever her name is - I try to pay ZERO attention to the Palins) was some kind of Holy Vessel.

8. A limited edition coin, a monument next to Lincoln's, and a national holiday in his name to boot. n/

9. +1

[Auntie Bush]

11. I think he should be carved on Mt. Rushmore...there's still room.

He should be carved there for being the first Black President and for all the other things mentioned by the OP. I've believed this for a long time.

[Fornit_Some_Fornus]

12. If a GOP President did all that

...would you vote for him/her?

[scheming daemons]

13. Yes... but a GOP President would never do all of that

The last Republican president with the temperment and belief system to accomplish things like that was Eisenhower.


And his whole family is voting for Obama.

[Fornit_Some_Fornus]

14. Good point. NT

[ck4829]

15. They'd declare Christianity dead and him the new God

[Canuckistanian]

16. AND did it all with an obstructive Congress

AND a Senate that's invoked filibusters on almost every bill put forward by the president....

Yes, they would be praising him.

[hughee99]

17. And we'd be fighting to get rid of him. n/t
