    Lets all forget what Bush and the Republicans did to this country and put 100% blame on Obama.

    I have to think real hard to find the last Republican President to not damage this country in more ways than one.

    Hmm.....

    Let's also remember that Obama failed to focus on job creation in his administration. But yeah, blaming Bush is so much easier.

    Eisenhower, maybe?

    You only have to go back a half-century to find a decent republican president.

    I didn't realize each administration starts from a clean slate. What Bush/Republicans left Obama to "fix" is impossible.

    Well, maybe Hank Williams Jr. could fix this. :lol:

    again, Obama failed to make job creation and the economy his #1 priority. But there we go with "impossible to fix" again. So might as well just rack up more debt without doing anything.

    If it's impossible to fix, we may as well elect the guy who hasn't added $7 trillion to the US debt, and given us $1 trillion yearly deficits, in three years of being in office.

    A budget that his own party would pass would be nice, too.

    But it's Bush's fault...

    You can't polish a turd.

    The Bush/Republican consequences of that administration will linger for years.

    According to Obama, our economic system hasn't worked for over 200 years, and needs to be changed right now, with government getting more control over who gets money, and being able to decide where money should be redistributed. So, it's really is George's fault.

    Washington, not Bush.

    Knowing what their party did to this country and how badly Bush fucked up this country, kinda odd that they didn't invite these people to their convention:

    *George W. Bush and most of his staff.
    *Their last vice presidential candidate, Mrs. Palin.

    But keep drinking that kool-aid. I'm not going to stop you.

    Well, they are quite unpopular. I mean is this all you can come up with. "the guy before fucked it up, but I can't defend my guy at all so I'll just say Bush and Palin until the economy is better".

    and I'm the one drinking the Kool Aid.

    PS.

    OBAMA IS A MUSLIM!!

    Btw, did anyone convert to Islam since he was elected? The tea-party warned the country of this.

    Lowest common denominator.

    Either "Bush's fault" will work for Obama, or it won't. If it does, he wins. If it doesn't, then I actually have some semblance of respect for the average American voter.

    Obama didn't once include the GOP in meetings while discussing his failed "Stimulus" plan. "I won", remember? Now Obama still cries about Bush.

    What a pussy. Man up and accept some responsibility for your own failures.

    You're conveniently sliding what the republicans and Bush did to this country under the rug.

    You'd certainly have a point had Obama started from a clean slate. :lol:

    I'm not sliding anything under anything. I'm stating that Obama's #1 priority was not job creation and the economy so this news shouldn't be shocking nor the lack of progress.
