If Obama fails at fixing the financial crisis, will conservatives be happy?

... since conservatives seem to be OK with Rush wishing for Obama's policies to fail, does that mean they will be happy if the economy gets worse or the recession is prolonged?If Obama fails at fixing the financial crisis, will conservatives be happy?
This is a good example why we are in the crisis in the first place

We are so selfish, and we live so much blindfolded in our own bubbles, that seeing our "enemies" fail make us happy even if our own country suffers, and we suffer with it.

This selfish egocentric nature brought us to the crisis.

This nature is in all of us.

What is compounding the situation is the global nature of the world, now we are so interconnected, that we cannot even move a finger without affecting everybody else.

So our selfish behavior is causing more harm than before, and threatens to destroy the whole system we live in.

The only way out is a global, united human society, where we elevate the interest and the well being of the whole society above our individual interests, whether it is personal, or country level.

There is no other way out.

All the best.
As happy as Liberals were every time there was bad news about the war in Iraq.If Obama fails at fixing the financial crisis, will conservatives be happy?
If conditions get worse the conservatives will say that they're disappointed then go home and high-five each other that Obama failed....
NoIf Obama fails at fixing the financial crisis, will conservatives be happy?
they will be dancing in the streets. in fact republicans are so invested in Obama's failure that if Obama's plans do work the republican party is done. for a long long time.
I, for one, am big enough to admit when I'm wrong, and yes, I'll be happy if Obama has some small part in "fixing" the financial crisis. I just flat don't think I'm wrong here, though.



I still stand by my original statement, which is, the economy has its ups and downs regardless of what political party is in power. It is easy to blame the President, so people do, just because he's handy. He has little power to do anything to affect an economic model that is DESIGNED to have ups and downs.



Frankly, having lived through the Carter years and seeing an exact carbon-copy repeat of the first of them here, I already know how this movie ends. We are not going to come out of this any different than we came out of the Carter years, and most of us know this from experience.



EDIT: Hey Les! While you're accusing Bush of spending trillions that we don't have, why don't you go take a look at Obama's spending plan.
Frankly, somebody needs to talk some sense into him before not only he fails, but the rest of the country. Who in their right mind spends trillions of $ that they don't have? Its insane.
Conservatives care more about their own political agenda than the welfare of the country, so I would say, "Yes".



"Who in their right mind spends trillions of $ that they don't have? Its insane." = Bush would.
IF, IF! He is failing, and badly, and no I'm not happy about it! But obviously, what we taxpayers think means nothing to his Excellency!
