    Bush Bashing!

    Interesting read:

    http://news.yahoo.com/s/politico/200...politico/25885

    I don't blame Obama and his admin for continuing to blame Bush for all our woes. It's an old political tactic. But, it's not working too well anymore. Obama's popularity numbers have dropped a bunch. Last night CNN had a show where the media and Obama were graded, by members of a panel and nationwide vote (over 360K people voted too).

    Here's the bottom line, if you're a passenger on a ship that is sinking, the new captain might be able to say, hey, when I took command the ship was already taking on water. And, that would be true. But, if the ship is still sinking, or worse, taking on water even faster, as a passenger you might say, "shut up about the previous captain, what are you doing now to right the ship!?"

    I'll take that as an admission that GWB ran the Ship of State straight into a well marked reef.

    Are you serious?

    Don't you remember Bush and his Sec of Treasury demanding that Congress pass the $700 billion bailout of Wall Street in 48 hours or else the USA was going to hell in a hand basket?

    And then a few weeks later Bush wanting a bailout of the auto industry?

    Heck man, the boat was on the reef and sinking!

    Explain to me again how this economy is GWB's doing? ....given that fannie and freddie were instructed by the 1st african american president to guarantee loans to a greater percentage of high-risk borrowers. By far, the largest investment most americans will make is purchasing a home. If 5-7% of homeowners stop paying their mortgage, I guess that will have zero bearing on the economy. Remember, republican/conservatives were too heartless to pull people of their roofs in NOLA, now its GWB's fault for loaning money to those who shouldn't have been approved. Libs need to make up their mind.

    Obama was not prez when the mortgage disaster occurred, but he did endorse the plan as a senator in 2004.

    We've had this discussion on the board in great detail. It's on a thread(s) somewhere in the archives.

    I believe he meant the first black president, Bill Clinton. And yes Bush steered us away from capitalism to try and salvage his presidency.
