President Ronald Reagan went on national TV over 20 times to speak directly to the American people about important issues, and was able to get major legislation over the opposition of the Democrat-controlled Congress. How many times did President Bush ever go on national TV and explain in a few sentences how the economic policies (e.g. Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, CRA) were set by the Democrats and he needed our help to get them to fix those economic distortions?
I don’t believe he ever did it. And that’s the problem. He should have done it within a year of becoming president. We all know he was busy around that time, but you don’t allow your nation to be destroyed economically, just because you need to prevent it from being destroyed externally.
This guy wanted to be president. It was his responsibility to make sure this never happened. And now it will be reported ad nausium that it happened on a Conservative’s watch, as if!
