To quote republicans in congress now "well he is the president"
Bush expanded us debt growth more then any president before him. He sold Iraq on the threat of a nuclear weapon that didn't exist. He expanded government in Medicare and education while removing consumer protections from investment banks and all but ignored the coming housing bubble that he helped create.
That isn't rewriting history its an acknowledgement of reality.
What has Obama done in the last 3 1/2 years? Increased the debt more than any president in history, has maintained over 8% unemployment for all years, family incomes have fallen, home prices have fallen, retirement investments have taken a beating, and the economy continues its skid. Super job,...but, one that Obama said would necessitate a one term proposition.
How conveniently you decided to dismiss/not address the link provided. How does that crow taste?
Jobs.....Freedom.....Safety......Cheap gas......Family values.....the good old days....
Jobs
The job loss started due to the recession which started during Bush. Granted Obama hasn't done a stellar job creating jobs but the unemployment rate has been slowly dropping.
Freedom
The largest loss of freedom the American people have ever endured happened during Bush. The Patriot Act. What freedoms have you lost because of Obama? If anything we're more free now. Just ask any gay serviceman or woman.
Safety
Why are you less safe now? Have we been attacked due to Obama's carelessness? BTW Bin Laden is gone as is Kadafi.
Gas
Crude oil prices went from $25.00 to almost $100.00 per barrel under Bush. Also the highest average price ever was seen under Bush $4.11. The average price of gas is no higher or lower under Obama than it was under Bush. (none of these things are really under any Presidents control.)
Values
There has not been a shift in the values of average Americans over the last 4 years. This is just more unfounded Republican rhetoric.

BUUSSHHhhhhhhDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!
As one of the Republican candidates stated,......"Obama assumed office nearly four years ago,......wonder when he will start assuming RESPONSIBILITY?????

Did you read the OP? This thread is about missing one of the worst if not the worst President this nation has ever had. Sure Obama has his shortcomings but he's far better than the prior President. Which I was pointing out in my post. And I'd vote Republican if not for their oppressive social stances towards gays and women.

Did you read my post regarding Obama taking responsibility for his own actions?
If Obama is elected for four more years he'll still be blaming Bush for all his failures,....and people in the democrat party will be following him like a bunch of rats behind the Pied Piper.
I used to vote for the democrats,...but then I learned to read and write.
Bush never had an addiction to cocaine, it was alcohol.
Obama was the coke/crack head. Just look at him.
Everyone has their battles.
A person who can deliver a great speech and clean up an economic mess is a crackhead in your mind but the guy who went to war with a random country, can barely mumble a coherent sentence and thinks evolution is pretend is crack-free? Riiiiiiiight
The Bushs are transplants to Texas from Conn. That's right son, they're yankees.
Aw,....now you have burst their little bubbles. Although, I'd take either Bush as a Texan before Obama.
