George W Bush did something amazing as a lame duck, and he might have saved America doing it!!

He knew that the 700B "bailout" was a bad idea and it would only kill the economy.
but he did it anyway

we were all so angry at him, but OMG don't you see it now?

he did it on purpose!!!!!

Here is what he knew:
0) the american sheeple do what the media tells them to
1) the media hates him (bush)
2) whatever he will do will be "bad" even if he really does something bad
3) a "stimulous plan" is bad. it will ruin the economy
4) Obama will try to pass many many stimulous plans and bailouts when he takes office
5)the media will cheer him on whatever he does
6) bailouts are terrible for the economy

so what did he do?

1) he tried to pass a bailout bill which he did
2) it didnt work - as expected
3) the media was all over him = what a bad idea it was
6) the sheeple listened to the media and wrote letters to their congress etc

now

as stupid as the sheeple are, their memories are not that short, and now that its Obama trying to pass all those bailouts... heh heh heh...

what do you think?

I know. If it was Obama trying to do it back then it would have been ok. But with Bush doing it, it was soooooooo wrong.

Bring in the socialist because giving away our tax money is what he does good.

President Bush was not nearly this smart and lets not forget that this bailout was passed by a majority Democratic congress. Both parties to blame. Both parties are socialist in nature. The last 8 years have been almost as socialist as the days of Jimmy Carter. One camp just feels its cool to give it to non-tax paying flunkies and the other thinks its cool to give it to elitist a-holes who take the money and go on vacations, buy private jets and 28 million dollar apartments on Park Ave.

true, but not entirely so. Bush was less of a sociolist than carter. tax rates are much lower today and middle class got great cuts.
everything started falling on the face later on, when the housing markets started booming because of the ninja law.
since then, when the economy suddenly needed "fixing", instead of fixing whats broken, the threw money at it

Clinton and company were small time pranksters, they only took the "W"'s off keyboards. Bush & Co. delivered the coup de grâce on the destruction of the economy upon their exit.

Agreed.

I was hoping that Obama would be a President for the people (like JFK) but so far it looks like he's another puppet controlled by the globalist elite that control America.

I have about 25% faith left in him already. I should've voted for Ron Paul.
