I find it hard to believe that one man destroyed the global economy.
You give Obama too much credit. Then again, that is one of the conspiracy theories I've seen floating around lately. It's all part of the "plan."

I can just see a whole bunch of libs on their deathbeds, and their last words will be, "Bush did it".

But guess what? Obama owns this mess, baby. It's all his.
