Oil UP UP UP!
Bread up 100%
Milk up 100%
Everything else UP UP UP!
-
MILLIONS of houses being repossed.
-
Chinese products endangering Americans health from babys to adults.
-
Americans chosing between eating or putting gas in their vehicles to go to work.
-
American schools at their worse while BILLIONS of $$$ are being spent to build new schools for the Iraqi people.
-
Americans bearing the brunt of our National Guards men being in Iraq instead of here in the States where they are needed during our National crisis like Katrina, other Hurricanes, Tornados and backing up our firefighters in their time of need with the many, many wildfires we have had. killing many Americans and leaving them homeless without any water while bush is providing water to the Iraqi people at the expense of our Troops lives.
-
Our injured Troops comming home to find many of the V.A. hospitals abandoned and the ones open with many workers and doctors sent packing.
-
Our Troops comming home after many dutys in Iraq only to find that there was a 'clause' in their promise to get a college education and they are screwed, rooded and tatooded. Yes the clause that they didn't tell our Brave men joining stated 'IF QUALIFIED'.
-
bush leaving Americans with nothing but BAD TIMES AHEAD for YEARS to come.
-
bush leaving the next President with nothing but problems that may take 10 presidencys to recover from.
-
bush leaving America with a weakened Military.
-
Pluss many, many, many more of bushs screwups that will take me days to posts on here.
-
bush turned many of our millionares into BILLIONARES and companys like Haliburton and Exon-Mobil making the LARGEST profits ever recorded while Americans try not to let their kids starve to death from all the prices of food going up so high.
-
I just erased what I had to say about this. I decided to let the OIL$$$$PRICES and everything else going up in price to where we are today with thousands of our dead and wounded Troops verses where we were back when Clinton was in office speak for themselves.
You're giving Bush too much credit. We do have a Congress, also. They happen to be a majority Democratic.

Clinton had a Republican majority in Congress.

People also have a responsibility to make sound choices and not get in over their heads with mortgages they can't afford. Then when they do make bad choices the government is supposed to bail them out? Our society is just way too spoiled.

MHO they've all had their hands in the pie. It's a screwed up world no matter who the President is.
