Please, Obama’s term is nearly up, and he’s still trying to complain about how his inability to fix things is all the fault of his predecessor. Great men lead, weak men make excuses.

I think Bush deserves some blame, but 0bama deserves most of the blame.

May 2009, he felt that analysts expecting the U.S. economy to rebound in the third and fourth quarter were "too optimistic. But in fact, the US economy started to grow in mid 2009 just like the optimistic analysts forecasted.
Now go away

Nonsense. Eighty years of liberalism as the dominant political philosophy caused our financial problem. Along with the moral decay of our people and politicians.

I guess it’s Bush’s fault for adding another $5 Trillion to the US debt in the last years too - from his ranch in Texas.

Yes, because the market takes eight years to react to economic policy. </sarc>

Another America-hating foreigner heard from...taking U.S. investors’ money for bilge like this, of course.

I think Bush deserves some blame, but 0bama deserves most of the blame.I agree. Without Bush and his policies we would not have an Obama.
But. Getting FReepers to look past the "R" next to his name is pretty hard.

O’Bummer is an absolute disaster, of course. One of the worst presidents in history. And that’s saying a lot.
But Bush’s complicity in big government grows more clear every day. Look at his awful education law. Obama is now using the hugely powerful Department of Education to stop school kids from bullying — just wait until the Department forces our neighborhood school to put homosexual students on a pedestal. And look at how the Atlanta teachers are breaking the law to help students cheat on the Bush tests.
All because Bush came up with his big government bureaucratic law. With the the compassionate fascist slogan of No Child Left Behind. Really? No child? No child anywhere? Thanks for Big Brother Bush, the education of all children are the now responsibility of the federal government!
