“GW Bush overcame it quite well”
GW Bush is entirely responsible for the catastrophe of Obama, and the very idea of re-invoking his image for our superficial voting majority is sheer insanity.
Bush has a mixed legacy. He and the rest of the neo-cons are really big government types. You are right that he let us down, and paved the path to Obama and where we are now. I love Dick Cheney, but he should have stepped down in the second term & let someone take his place that could have run for president.
I think Cheney says he tried to do that, but Bush wouldn't hear of it - it has had a devastating impact.
Why can't the stupid party get down the simple talking point that the DEMOCRAT CONGRESS elected in 2006 purposefully, in Cloward-Piven fashion, trashed the economy and hung it around the neck of W in order to win the 2008 election? I do blame Bush, however, for not constantly pointing it out at the time.
Why that's as ridiculous as saying McCain threw the election, and that the RATaganda "media" are responsible for the Obama victory.
Oh wait...
That is factless poppycock.
The historic truth has been stated repeatedly on this forum. Learn what really happened, and work on getting rid of the derangement that drives you.
And of course it had nothing to do with the totally RAT anti-American, job-killing Congress in place since 2006.
(that's what I'm saying)
