You think that Bush was elected as a 'fiscal conservative'? ...twice? So...apparently, because of Bush, there is no need for 'fiscal conservancy' within our government now?....am I understanding you correctly?
So, you blame Bush for building up the massive deficits? What were the fiscal conservatives within the majority doing? Where were they? More importantly, if Bush was a terrible idea, nobody but republicans ought to look in the mirror.
But hey, they haven't had credibility in my eyes for a long time.

I blame Bush for a lot. He is gone now - time to move on. Our present government is looking at more than doubling what Bush created in government debt - do you deny that?
It is fairly easy to see. Ask for PayGo, and you may not find a single republican to vote for it.
Vs those Democrats who voted for it, and now want to ignore it for numerous spending requests while whining because Bunning is supporting the very same paygo requirements established by Democrats..
btw, all of this ignores the fact that when Democrats took over Congress in 2007, the debt was $8T.. now its $12T.. DEMOCRATS increased the debt 50% in ONLY 3 years.. Not Republicans..
Republicans would rather loan their money to the government than sent it in taxes so that is what they have arranged starting with Nixon and peaking with Raygun. The rest of us exist to make the 0.1% ever more wealthy.
The fact that he didnt vote for it, is irrelevant.. ITS THE LAW.. Do you think you can avoid the law because you didnt vote for it?
It is indeed the law, but I hate hypocrites. Let the law hold, and I'm sure it will. Have the nutcase that is Bunning challenge if it doesn't, instead of being an arm chair tiger.

Does that mean, if Obama loses in 2012, we can blame whoever takes office for the mess that had been in the making since the 1980s (if not the 1970s)?

You dont seem to be upset at all with the hypocrites. That would be those who created the law, but now want to ignore it..
Those who are upholding the law, even though they dont agree with it are no where close to being hypocrites.
