Good lord, "Dont_Tread," the phrase "it's Bush's fault" is an ironic joke -- a poke in the proverbial eye of those who blame GWB for almost everything that goes bad in the country. It may be tired, but it's a joke nevertheless. You really do need to lighten up some.
It is tired.
Why not use this stupid phrase for something very bad, like Hurricane Katrina where the RATs blame him for a natural disaster. That would get some giggles from some here. Or, use it for something very good, like John Bolton hinting the UN is becoming dysfunctional and the RATs are acting like this is a disaster. In those two cases, the snicker value is enough to cause a reading on the power gauge. But in this case, Bush could not have caused a good or bad industrial production report, so this stale phrase falls flat.
