"I see him a bit like Barack Obama in so far as he inherited a nightmare situation from his predecessor"

When Nancy Pelosi's Democrats took Congress away from Republicans in January 2007, unemployment was at 4.5%, the deficit had been cut in half to $180 billion, taxes were low, and the Dow Jones was about 14 thousand.

Some nightmare.

All due blame to the Dems but the Pubs were hardly blameless. And then in the last play of the game, Bush through a Hail Mary pass right into a crowd of the opposite uniforms. Can anyone explain that?

Same way Richard the Lionheart was a disaster!

This article assumes people don’t know history...Bush as Richard I, one of the most beloved Kings of all time? I’ll take it!
