7. REAL PEOPLE DIED ON 9-11. And America went Bankrupt because of it

Thu Mar 7, 2013, 01:13 PM

Mar 2013

Don't like Bush?
Don't vote for Jeb or anyone but the democratic nominee(who probably will be Hillary) in 2016.

it really is that simple.

This isn't a college debate.

Ask all the people who were directly affected by the death or loss of business of 9-11.

And if people would have voted for Gore instead of their inane protest,
none of it would have happeened.

But of course, it is easier to opine like a grade school park yard debate, then realize that the only thing that a stupid protest does is elect Jeb Bush in 2016.

Which is constitionally allowed, but why anyone wants to hand the ball from President Obama to Jeb Bush is beyond me, especially when they blame W for 9-11
