The war includes soldiers that lost their lives and those that are injured and need medical attention for the rest of their lives. And then there is the emotional and psyschology aspects of war. Don't think so simple okay. It's not just $$$$.

He will get his own chapter in the history books.....

Obamaphones..up 476% in 3 years
Food Stamps..up over 200% in 3 years

Probably record number of part time job workers in America too.

He's going to beat FDR for government program enrollments.

Of course it is all Bush's fault. And after the next four years it will still be Bush's fault. Maybe into the next century. Damn that Bush.

Did you notice Mitt not talking about our soldiers or thanking them for their services at the GOP convention? Why?

Bush did hold office for 8 years. That's a long time. Almost a decade. You expect things to be fixed in 4 years? If Obama don't improve the economy more by the end of his 8th year I will blame him.
