It's all about opening doors though. If Bush opened the door further, than Obama is going to open it further, etc.
It's a trend that should not have been started and Bush bailing out started a lot of the ****.
That doesn't excuse Obama, but again a door opened means a door can be opened further.
I don't care who started it, I care who will do the right thing and close the door. Just because Bush spent less doesn't make his failure better because Obama spent more and it doesn't make the failure of the presidents before them that did the same thing any better.
It doesn't matter who started it, only matters who will end such idiotic spending. So far Democrats have proven themselves inadequate, and Republicans have proven themselves to be inadequate.
So what now? Elect a Republican again who will be just as irresponsible as the last? Or a Dem the same?
I find such uninformed bile comedic; the ONLY reason for all the spending done during Bush's Administration was primarily due to the catastrophic events of 9-11, fighting a war in Afghanistan, fighting a war in Iraq and the catastrophic events of New Orleans.
Yet even with ALL this spending, while Republicans were in charge the deficit which was caused primarily due to the above events and had reached a mere $300 billion at its peak, was actually going down and was below $200 billion when Democrats took over in 2006. The acceleration since then has been frightening to any with a brain.
But alas, let us not focus on the criminal irresponsibility of the Democrats; let us continue the asinine whining about George W. Bush; a man who dared to do what he said he would, a man who dared to have massive bi-partisan support in the congress and a man who dared to fight the asinine attempts of the DNC to disenfranchise the voters of Florida.
