From a blog comment on a Drudge link:

Congratulations to the Democrats and Young People! You now own it and you can't blame Bush.

The next terrorist attack, you own it.

Can't get a job after graduation, you own it.

Sky rocketing energy prices due to Obama's EPA shutting down the energy producing states, you own it.

A nuclear Iran, you own it.

Bowing to Russia, you own it.

Another severe recession, you own it.

A volatile border with Mexico, you own it.

Trouble getting good health care, you own it.

Higher health insurance costs and health care costs, you own it.

No budget, you own it.

Our allies mistrust, you own it.

Another trillion of debt, you own it.

More Benghazi situations, you own it.

No one willing to join the military, you own it.

Trouble getting a loan to buy a home, you own it.

More dependency on food stamps, you own it.

Trouble finding good employment, you own it.

Several part time jobs instead of a good job, you own it.

A World Government, you own it.

The UN governing the United States instead of ourselves, you own it.

A Senate that will not bring any legislation to the table even if it is "Dead on Arrival", you own it.

China controlling our world trade trampling all over us, you own it.

Loss of our freedoms as we have known it in the past, you own it.

A dictatorship instead of a democracy that follows the Constitution, you own it.

Less take home pay and higher living costs, you own it.

Driving a car that looks like a toy, you own it.

More government corruption and lies, you own it.

More toleration of extreme and fanatical Islamists, you own it.

Terrorist attacks called work place incidents, you own it.

Your revenge instead of love of country, you own it.

President George Bush is out of it now, and there is not another good man for you to vilify and lie about.

In a way I am relieved that another good man will not be blamed when it was impossible to clean up this mess you voted for.

Have a good day. God bless the United States! God is our hope now.

Dems don’t own anything.

According to exit polls, 50% of voters blamed Bush for the bad economy.

Good luck fighting that....

Unfortunatly they don’t own anything. They will simply deflect, blame conservatives the media will comply

...Yet again to an alarming degree of success.

Yes they can and probably will. The mantra: Obama tried valiantly but Bush just dug us into too deep a hole. Worked in 2012 and will work in 2016 given the IQ of the average Obamanite.

It is not obama’s fault, it is the 50.6% who voted for him. Remind them: high unemployment courtesy of obama voters, they voted for it! I do it on facebook and other forums.

I am sorry to say it, but I now giggle every time I hear that a company is reducing hours to avoid Obamacare. That is all I am left with. Sad isn't it? Elections have consequences and the majority of the group that is getting reduced hours voted for Obama! I live in the county where the college is reducing hours to 25 to avoid Obamacare. How many of those employees do you think voted for Obama?

TOTUS told his followers on election night to “remain calm”. Which was zero speak for “the fix is in”. Just sayin’

He may have been saying that, because at that point, they weren't totally sure they could steal the election.

I hear there was real weeping in the Dem camp on the night they 'won'. That indicated to me that they were stressed beyond belief about the outcome.

They get away with this because the OWN the media. They can flood the zone with “news documentaries” and Hollywood movies based on fabricated fantasies. The next thing you know, Vietnam was Nixon’s fault.

I am not on Facebook, but my relatives who are tell me that if you post anything anti-Obama on there it gets pulled faster than you can say KosKids.

This was my sons first election. Of course he voted straight republican ticket, but he was disappointed to see claims of voter fraud. My concern is it may disenfranchise our younger early 20 somethings next time around to just say F*%$ it!
He is just entering college next year so he’ll be in the job market in 5 years...if there is a job market for him besides McDonalds.

What you’re forgetting is that being a Democrat means never owning up to one’s mistakes. It’s always somebody elses fault if things go bad. When things go wrong, Dems have a tremendous capacity for looking in the mirror, and seeing someone else staring back at them.

Not so. I am on FB, and I post all kinds of anti-obama posts there. The only thing that has happened is that I am challenged by “friends”.

When the food stamps, welfare social security and disability checks stop coming and there is no food to be had then they will own it

By the way, the cows in the meadow never wonder why the nice farmer brings them free hay every day. By the time they find out, it’s too late.

Let’s face the facts on Bush. He does deserve considerable blame for the mess we are in but not necessarily for the reasons given by the Democrats.

1) He inherited a balanced budget from Clinton and then proceeded to double the deficit accumulated since the founding of the Republic.
2) Like LBJ he tried to have both guns and butter the nation could not afford. He fought two wars overseas plus greatly expanded federal social spending (education and Medicare prescription drugs). He had no plan to fund these huge increases in spending.
3) He failed to use his veto power to reign in both the freespending Republican Congress and later a freespending Democrat Congress. If he had been serious, he’d have used the veto.
4) Other than giving a couple of speeches no one heard about Fannie and Freddie, he did nothing to reign them in. Why didn’t he use the bully pulpit, criss crossing the country the way Obama does on taxing the rich, if he truly thought it was a problem? Why didn’t he ask Congress to defund Fannie and Freddie or privatize them? The truth is the Bush Treasury department was run by Wall Street insiders and let Wall Street run wild.
5) Despite his role as leader of the nation, he went AWOL during the financial crisis of 2008 allowing former Goldman Sachs CEO Henry Paulson, Ben Bernanke, and Timothy Geithner to save the big Wall Street banks on the back of the taxpayer. He was responsible for TARP.
6) He may have been the recipient of vicious and unfair attacks from the Left but he never fought back. When conservative ideals were under attack he played the role of punching bag, turning the other cheek instead of engaging a real debate about the future of the country. His credibility as a leader was lost because of his own inaction. I must conclude the self described “compassionate conservative” president was really a liberal statist because he never used the power of the office to promote conservative principles and ideals, much less push back against the growth of the socialist state.

Bush enabled the rise of Obama. He lost the respect of the American people, and his party, because he failed to articulate and fight for an alternative to the welfare state. He failed to use his veto power to preserve the balanced budget he inherited. He failed to lead the country against the onslaught of the social left and its media allies. Bush will be blamed for decades by the left because his poor leadership allowed them to define him. Had he been a strong leader like Reagan, going around the media to the people with a powerful message, his legacy would be much different.

George W. Bush failed as a leader. We conservatives need to stop apologizing for him and own up to the facts, just as the Democrats repudiated Lyndon Johnson for his failures and sent Jimmy Carter into exile for years for his failures. Until we repudiate the Bush openly as a traitor to conservatism, the Democrats will continue to wrap that boat anchor around our necks.

So wrong in so many ways. Lets start with #1....Gingrich had more to do with the balanced budget than Clinton.......your next five points are so full of errors that it would take a book to correct them. Bush had nothing to do with the “rise of Obama.” There is nothing Bush could have done in his second term, the media ate him alive everyday, EVERDAY, no matter what be did. There was a hurricane he had nothing to do with, waterboarding and Gitmo were the daily talking points. If you are still confused, ask yourself this, when was the last time you heard the daily body count from Afghanistan since Obama has been in office? Incidentally, the Democrats wrap an anchor around our necks regardless of who is in office with the help of uninformed people.......
