...loathe to defend a conservative president...

OK, let's get this straight. George Bush was not a conservative. He did some conservative things, but he was not a conservative.

And no one needs to defend President Bush. He was a far better President than would have been Al Gore or John Kerry. Far, far better.

Still, we'd have been, and would be, better off if we really had a conservative President. Say, President Palin.

Let’s also get it straight that the CNN guy is WRONG and the Dems will keep blaming Bush for YEARS.

It’s what they do. It resonates with their core consituency, typified by the guy who tried to throw tomatos at Sarah Palin and hit a cop instead.

Look at that guy. He blames Bush so why shouldn’t Obama, Reid, Pelosi and the rest of them keep blaming Bush?

The Won needs to be pinned down to give us a date when he will assume responsibility for the economy and the war.

The era of 'blame Bush' for Obama is over

Uh Uh!!!! Only if one is in a drug, alcohol or groupie-syndrome induced stupor (ie. media who salivate merely at his name).

Obama will ride the "Blame Bush" horse until it dies and then he will sell the meat. The "Blame Bush" era will NEVER be over!

People can say what they want about Bush. They generally do anyway. But we always must remember, if it were not Bush it would have been Gore. It makes me nauseous to think about that possibility. Whether the man was a good president or not, whether he was a true conservative or not... Having him was absolutely better than having Gore.

Dear God, we’re in a mess now with Obama. Just think how bad it would be if we were just coming off Gore’s presidency. I shudder to think.

Giving banks billions in TARP funds? Dumb idea by Bush and Treasury Secretary Hank "Mr. Wall Street" Paulson.

Senator Barak Obama voted for TARP.

55555555555555555!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >> On Next President Palin.

But iffy on Bush. Bush (2nd Term) was a lameduck president. But he’s just a punching bag. He’s not the main culprit.

If the Dying Media just try to open its eyes:

1. Economy? Blame Barney Frank and the political correctness in housing market. TARP? Blame Pelosi, Reid, Obama, Krugmann (Ivy League idiotic elites) and their Dem friends who wanted it most - just ask the idiots in the Feds.

2. War? Bush was right. We would never survive Bin Laden+Adminadjab+Muslim Europe+Iran and Libya loving Russia+........+ the demonic Saddam Hussein in the 21st Century. US$700 Billion in 6 years is just a chicken compared to the Trillions of Obama’s first term and possibly Quadrillion, considering the impacts in the decades to come.

SO OBAMA SHOULD HAVE BLAMED HIMSELF AND HIS DEMOCRAT FRIENDS IN THE FIRST PLACE.

It’s like CNN asking Obama and his Dem minions to solve the problems they have created based on their own policies in the last 3 years. Now, they are cooking an “economic massacre”.

blame Bush for Obama

Wow. I know they blame Bush for everything, but blaming him for themselves?! That's a whole new level of Bush Derangement Syndrome.

I'm not so sure about that. Like it or not, Bush's legacy is the Obama administration and financial chaos, much as President Taft's legacy was Woody Wilson, though a strong case can be made that Woody was Roosevelt's fault for running 3rd party and splitting Republican votes.

Now if Bush had kept the campaign promises he made ...

I agree entirely. Bush was just the lesser of two evils. Two times America voted for the republican lesser of two evils. This election America voted for the greater of two evils because they were fed up voting for the lesser and hoped voting democrat would be better. The lesson here is that as long as the republicans and the democrats keep putting forward evil candidates America will suffer. If the republicans want to regain power they're going to have to give up the old strategy of trying to be the lesser of two evils. How about they pick a candidate that won't screw American for a change?

The new mantra I'm hearing from the Rats is 'But they do it too", and
"both sides are guilty". It's becoming childish.
