Why does the President get blamed for our failing economy? Outside of the wars..what other spending did Bush create? Was it Bush who tacked on billions in pet projects to war funding bills? NO. Did Bush create the housing crisis or the bailout necessary? NO. The fucking Congresses and previous president did. Yes its more complicated than that but its the easiest way to explain the macro of the situation.
This Congress is predominantly to blame. Now we have given Pelosi & Reid a mandate to spend like fucking crazy.
BTW..anyone see already how the Democrats are worried that Obama will live by his campaign promise and not allow lobbyists to participate in his cabinet?
If he stands by that promise and doesn't bow to Pelosi & Reid's pressure I will have better faith he was the leader we needed.
