Bush should have used his veto powers on all the spending Congress wanted to do -- remember, the Democrats had control the last two years of his term.

I'm going to regret this.. how is he out to help the middle class, by making sure they cant get jobs, by helping to facilitate one of the largest home foreclosure records in history? By increasing the national debt more than all other presidents combined?
