Wow. I don't mean to play devil's advocate here (well, ok, I do) but wouldn't this be more legit if there were links to references? Where the compiler got this information. I won't confirm, deny, or debate its veracity, but if I were a Republican-just bear w/ me-I would find this incredibly biased. And a few of these are attacks more on his acquaintances than himself. Granted there's a saying "Show me your friends, and I will know you" but I would be willing to cut him *some* slack for having sketchy friends.
Yes the economy went to hell over the past few years. No denying that. But how much of that was the Administration and how much was inevitable, we really can't tell. I definitely do not agree w/ his spending in the midst of such an economic crisis. I definitely do not agree w/ the Dept. of Homeland Security. I feel he does take too many vacations and does very little in addressing his constituents. Did I vote for him? Yes. Will I again? No way. I gave him the chance and he failed me (among millions of others). That's politics.

Again, what a joke.

I guess folks who have no idea at all about economics or business would believe those aspects and US/Bush hating folks would just believe the rest.

About as useful and truthful as the "middle class misery index".

Nothing like a few "near truths" to make us "think."

One the other hand, they aren't much worse than some of the TV spots and internet photos posted by the other side.

This campaign will make a fine research paper for some Poly Sci Doctoral type.

Just a few observations after looking at the site and reading the "accomplishments":

* boy the saying "throw everything against the wall to see what sticks" has to be Terry McAuliffe's personal motto.

* I don't know how to do this, but I am sure that those who have expertise can link this site back to a Democratic operative or a left-wing group.

* George Bush was apparently pretty busy convincing all those folks to file for bankruptcy. Never mind that he doesn't file, they do.

* So George was all about Enron? What about the minor fact that they gave more money over time to Democratic office holders? And no mention of Global Crossing at all? Good work, McAuliffe! You stole money from GC and it NEVER got in the papers!

* 71% of Europe disapproves of George? Wait a minute - that's a positive!

Oh, the heck with it. Bottom line, I'm shocked to see this site linked on this board, one that is by definition one frequented by people who are college educated, discerning, and "supposedly" intelligent people.
I do remember when I was in college. I knew so much when I really knew so little.

So if you disagree with certain views, the people that believe in those views are unintelligent? You know everything so any other view than yours is unintelligent? Everyone learns something from college but obviously you didn't learn humility.
From what I seen is very few people on either side bother to take the time to disprove the propaganda or prove their own views. I admit I don't usually give sources to back everything I post, but I also don't call other people's views other than mine unitelligent.

These are opinions and views except you're trying to pass them off as fact. It's not just you, there are others. Whenever anyone says anything to these people and you it seems you use the old "I'm allowed to have my view".

Alot of stuff I post is propaganda. I never claim it to be true I just post it. People just assume since I post it I think its true, which may or may not be the case. It's up to the individual to believe it or not.

Propaganda isn't true usually. Don't be too offended then when people challenge it and call it uneducated.

Right once again. Democrats and Republicans are going to think the other is uneducated in some cases anyways. I just will have the class not to call someone educated even if I think they are.
