Obama wore a tan suit once and the Fox News goons had aneurysms for a solid week

You guys remember "terrorist fist jab"? That one was the one that pissed me off the most.

Remember that time Bush got us into two wars because of 9/11, but it wasn’t until Obama that the guy who caused it was killed. I member. Turns out the Republicans didn’t care about justice, they just cared about using the crisis to make some oil money for their VP and President.

Remember also that the Bush Administration ignored a brief titled "Bin Ladin Determined To Strike in US" on August 6, 2001; 36 days before 9/11.

Republicans never even cared about national security. They've been acting exclusively in bad faith for over half a century now and exploited 9/11 to set us on the path that has led directly to our current state of affairs.
