It's a bit amazing how the tide has turned in just such short order. Everything that happened in the world from the day of his first inauguration was the fault of the evil Bush. Market down 10, it's his fault. Here were are into the Obama regime and it's still all Bush's fault. This guy has hung with more slime then GW did in his entire life and yet none of it matters. At some point though blaming the Obama depression on Bush is going to not fly anymore and the shit is going to stick to the great orator who doesn't seem to know how to do anything but campaign.

Heritage Org's chart showing all Federal Deficits by recent Presidents: (Heritage.org's figures are taken from the exact same official source that I took mine from when I posted the "REAL national debt" numbers for every post WW II Presidency --- measured as the "percentage of GNP". Source: Deficits from FY 2009 Historical Tables, Budget of the United States Government, Table 1.2. Same as I, (although Heritage failed to post the very good Truman and Eisenhower records that I did...), their chart makes EXTREMELY CLEAR that the WORST federal deficits were rung-up by: Reagan, Bush I, Ford, and Bush II.... with Bill Clinton posting the best deficit record since the 1950s: Average Federal Deficit as a Percentage of GDP, by Administration (Truman and Eisenhower actually net paid down deficits... while Clinton nearly did, posting only a tiny 0.1 increase over his full eight years. But Reagan and Bush I and Ford and Bush II were the biggest budget-busters of all.) PS --- Bush II's deficit numbers are likely to inch a little higher still... I understand that his last year's number (2008) is still inferred, not yet final. Likely to be revised upward when final revisions are made. author.heritage.org

Allen Stanford may have been used by Obama to send cash and KFC to his lover in Martinique. "Obama Affair! Vera Baker Found! Exiled to Carribean by Michelle Obama - Located in Martinique Who is Vera Baker? Some people in Chicago claim she was Obama’s Finance Director for his 2004 Senate campaign. FEC Senate campaign records show she was paid a pretty penny as “Finance Director”. However, people familiar with Obama’s 2004 Senate campaign say Claire Serdiuk was Obama’s Finance Director. Looking through everything we can see online for that 2004 campaign, Claire Serdiuk is consistently listed as the Finance Director - because that’s what she was. There’s no mention of Vera Baker…but Vera Baker was paid as the “Finance Director” too. And then, suddenly, Vera Baker was relocated to New York. Right around the time Michelle Obama got incredibly angry about something. We know it was hard to tell, because Michelle’s angry about something on a good day…but this was EXTRA angry. And then, even more suddenly, Vera Baker was relocated to the island of Martinique, where she remains." seanhannityfox.blogspot.com
