An 'unmitigated disaster'?
 "I think he [Obama] has been an unmitigated disaster to the country.”

Do you know what an unmitigated disaster is?  When George W. Bush and Dick Cheney took office we had a $150 billion budget surplus and in very first month when they took office the CBO projected that we would have a $889 surplus by 2011. But of course, Bush and Cheney left us with a $1.2 trillion DEFICIT!  That's a disaster.

When Bush and Cheney took office in January 2001, the unemployment rate was 4.2%, and as everyone knows, when they left the unemployment rate was 7.8% and we were losing 800,000 jobs a month and they left us in the middle of the worst recession in 70 years.

Dick Cheney lied us into needlessly invading Iraq.  I wonder if the parents, brothers, sisters and spouses of the 4,500 Americans who died needlessly because of their lies don't think Dick Cheney is an 'unmitigated disaster'?  I'm sure they must.  Any American who isn't either an America-hating teabagger, or an absolute moron, surely does.
