Waaaaaah-Waaaaaah!
Democrats, Republicans, they're both stupid, but republicans are definetly the lesser of the two evils. Stop whining, because Bush is more than likely going to be around another four years.
Reviews for "Bush Bash 2"
Way too liberal...
Ok, first off in response to your last comment -- there never was, nor will there ever be a $5 trillion budget surplus. The amount of money taken in by the Federal Government is right now only approximately $2 trillion and was somewhere between $1.7 and $1.8 trillion under President Clinton. I would like to know how the former President spent the sum of -$3,300,000,000,000 in any of his 8 years (which felt like 80) in office. In addition, here's another bit of news for you: While there was a budget surplus, the deficit kept growing because of interest charges and nothing from the surplus was put towards the debt. Clinton rolled over the surplus shooting for a higher surplus.
As for this flash: I had a tough time understanding the sound near the end. You've heard this complaint before but it does need to be cleaned up. I'm giving you style points because a lot of media outlets have a liberal, borderline socialist bias. NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, and NPR, just to name a few, and you caught that accurately.
You told one of the earlier reviewers that you're so open-minded. Ok, I challenge you then. Make a flash about Governor Gray Davis and the horrible damage he did to the state of California. How he and the overwhelmingly Democratic legislature singlehandedly turned an $11 billion surplus into a $38.2 billion deficit in just 4 years, how he underinflated the deficit by a factor of 4 just a week before the election, and how the man has the lowest approval rating of ANY public official, ever -- 21%. That's lower than Nixon had when he resigned. Make a Gray Davis flash because the Governor of California has horribly failed as a public official.
And before you dismiss that to economic downturn, I got three numbers for you -- 21, 25, 40.
Population + Inflation increased by 21% between 1999-2003.
Revenues between 1999 - 2003: Increased by 25%.
The Governor's spending between 1999 - 2003: Increased by 40% in four years!
Accounting is complicated, I will admit but I think most people will concede that a 40% increase in spending is way more than a 25% increase in revenues. He spent the money and now he tripled the car tax -- that's obscene! You don't spend like a drunken sailor and then say "Oh by the way, I need more money to pay for this stuff."
That's my challenge to you -- if you make an anti-Davis flash and it's good enough to pass judgment, I will consider you as very open-minded.

Thank you for your review.
The 5 trillion number is accurate, if our government quoted the right number on the news last night. (and no, I don't believe everything the TV or our government says.)
Now, in fairness, please do not assume that I am a simp! I am fully aware that there is no "true surplus." WE ARE IN MASSIVE DEBT! At least Mr. Clinton was turning in a balanced budget. Our country's debt issues started with Nixon and were exacerbated by Reagan(who wanted to spend the Russians into submission). Although devestating to our economy, it did work!
As far as the Gray Davis flash, you won't see one from me. I do think that he is doing a horrible job, but I live about 2000 miles from California and have very limited exposure to many of the specifics of the problems there. I don't have enough first hand knowledge to do the flash for him. Heck, I don't even know what the guy looks like.
Gray Davis needs to go and Richard Riodan(hope I spelled that right) seems to be the best choice (from what I hear).
As far as the drunken sailor comment, that applies to Mr. Bush as well. He is "spending" government revenues by paying it to the public (twice now), while at the same time issuing unfunded mandates to the states for his homeland security initiatives. He is breaking both the federal and state governments!!!
Americans are so afraid, or greedy, when it comes to taxes that we forget that WE ARE THE LEAST TAXED WESTERN NATION in the world... but this is a conversation we will not have without a pitcher of beer of beer in front of us.
I do agree with you that the car tax is WAY out of line and a desperate attempt to cover Davis' bad decisions in the past.
A tad better
What does someones age or in my case, what you believe my profesion to be have to do with how we feel about our country and its leadership. Using personal info in a reply is kind of a low blow. I may not like your flash movies or your political views but I would still like to respect you as a fellow American. At least this time you gave Bush a thumbs up.
TheOtherTruth responds:
Thank you for your review.
If you think that using personal info is kind of a low blow, consider the fact the you said:
"Pack up your shit and head home. That was worthless and tasteless. Have fun bangin Hilary tonight."
THAT was equally low, or worse! If you were to read other negative reviews written to me you would realize that I respect any negative commentary as long as it is not pejorative.
Once you get nasty, I am more than willing to go there.
There are also several people with whom I did not get along with well at all because of hostile commentary, but who I now consider friendly.
Hopefully, this is what will happen with you.

One thing I love about Newgrounds...
Is the fact that I can't respond to any of your responses to my reviews. This gives people the image that, and I quote, "Wolvie's response:
OMG! You so took him to school! Good work and thanks for the <3" Most of my reviews of your work have spawned out of irritation for the almost endless hate again Bush which I still believe to be unfounded. Okay saying that, I wouldn't mind ignoring all of my previous posts. On thing irritated me about your "educated" responses. Since I am 15 I am unable to have an educated opinion on a matter? And I also find it interesting that you would take such an active interest in me to not only include me in one of your other responses but also to look in my profile to find information to flame me back with.
Edited review of Bush Bash 7:
Your movie is poorly animated with poor sound and it lacks humor and interest. The subject is overly done. Your definition of liberal is very broad. I'm a republican yet I'm open to new ideas, tolerant of others. And you say that all liberals are free from bigotry? That's a flat out lie. You aren't as free to new ideas as you say.
This is just a cut and paste really of the things I still support without all the flame.
Review of Bush Bash 2:
I won't go into the meat of the article because that would most certainly give you room to contradict me so I will just review the flash. It is, as before, poorly animated, lacking interest with an overly done subject, and without humor.
I will most likely respond to your response in Bush Bash 3 and I might include anything I forgot.
TheOtherTruth responds:
Thank you for your review.
I'm going to bite my tongue as best I can.
First, don't flatter yourself! When I respond to any negative commentary I check your bio. I do this to find out if you beaten or molested as a child, put under any undo stress, your are heavily medicated, raised in this country (or by wolves), etc. If there is some valid reason for the grossly inapropriate behavior expressed in the review, I try to be forgiving. However, your bio didn't have any of this stuff.
Let me remind you that you called me a "flaming homosexual queer,and a cock sucking bastard" in your review of Bush Bash 7
These are the words of the ignorant (and homophobic). (or is this how all republicans speak?)
Then in your review of BB2, you tell me "I really hate you" Again, more ignorance.
In both of these situations I can only look at your bio and say, "he's young and stupid and doesn't know how to comport himself yet.
Then, for BB2, you write something that is very articulate for somebody your age. Now, I start thinking "what an ass!" He actually has the capability to respond intelligently, but it was his 2nd choice (not his first). Pathetic. Why choose to be 2nd best when you know that you are better?
You want respect and don't want to be flamed, but look at how your actions shaped the tone of this entire discussion. HIPOCRISY! You got what you deserved. I don't desire to beat people up, I only do it when attacked personally.
Now, to your commentary.
I don't recall saying "liberals are free from bigotry." I challenge you to find that without drawing a conclusion from an assumption.
Liberal??? That is a word with very little meaning that the right likes to throw around like a dirty word. It isn't. If you watch Bush Bash 3, and I hope you did, George Bush is truly a liberal. (but again, that is just a word)
I'm not free to new ideas? You don't know me! You can't say that with authority. Anybody who knows me personally would tell you otherwise.
Finally, as far as:
"poorly animated, lacking interest with an overly done subject, and without humor"
Well, that is only your opinion. It's a subject you have no interest in, so you don't find the value.
As I have mentioned before, when I make these I show them to all of my friends (both Democrats and Republicans). I can't tell you how many times that they laughed so hard that they were crying.
Humor is subjective. Anything that makes your Boy George (he he) look bad isn't going to appeal to you and you won't find it funny.
Conversely, If you look at some of the Anti Bill and Hillary stuff that I have reviewed, you will see positive reviews from me!
Funny is Funny, and I don't care who it is directed at.
You need to lighten up, write more reviews like your last one, and QUESTION GEORGE AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY!
Because, in spite of what you think, he is an evil moron. The facts, do indeed, back this up.
You know im tired of this
I am not even gonna watch any more of this repetitive boring Bush Bash clips. So blah blah the whole time...
