Give me a break. Bush laid the foundation for all of this garbage. At least Obama pays attention to his constituents.

We had 6 years of complete R control, and Bush was democrat lite. We wouldn’t be in the position we are today if he would have pursued a sound fiscal policy and closed the borders.

Only a fool believes that there is any way to fully “close” a 2000 mile rustic border or seriously believes that “closing” a border with our second largest trading partner would be a good idea.

Wow. Congratulations on drinking the Obama kool-aid. You assert today’s economic crises is a result of President Bush’s fiscal and border policy? It’s obvious you have no idea or understanding of the key difference between FISCAL and MONETARY policy. You said fiscal policy. What a clown.

The financial mess was born primarily of Clinton’s Community Reinvestment Act which forced lenders to make risky loans to low-to-mod income people at high risk. Underwritten by Freddie and Fannie, (mortgage backed securities) these were loans that would not have otherwise ever been made available by private banks due to the risk.

Go ahead, love Obama. Obey him. Mindlessly agree with his every word. Gaze dreamy-eyed at him. You’re beyond a lost cause.
