Now that Obama is in, he's giving to everyone Bush missed. Obama/Congress won't even reinstate the estate tax for 2010. I'd feel better about the guy if he would let some air out of the bubble. Especially wall street.

CLINTON should have paid down the debt, but AG told him it might be BAD to reduce the debt "too fast"! Instead, he handed it to W.

"The minute bush was elected he took Clinton's surpluses and instead of using it to pay down the debt, he gave it to the rich." Wait a minute. Is Congress without fault? You could blame everything you want on Bush, and I think you do, but how is it he is so responsible for all this when Congress was/is controlled by another party? You could even go so far as to say that Bush got all he wanted, but Congress still had to approve much of, if not most of that. Gee, and isn't that the same group of folks who control Congress now? And ain't they doin' a fine job!

Bush was facing the same Depression. He just did whatever he had to to pass it off on the next guy. After Saddam THE 911 WMD IMMINENT THREAT TERRORIST was gone, STRONG ECONOMY was the new mantra EVERYTHING that Bush said and did was TOTAL BS centered around feeding his BUSH'S NEVER FAIL ego He was a mentally ill person.

You are correct. I'm not completely giving up on obama yet either. If the democrats let bush's tax cuts expire....it's a big step in correcting bush sins. But....so far....there has been no change and nothing is fixed. And obama was handed a gift....and real opportunity to become one of the best presidents ever.....and look at his approval rating. Duh....obama....figure it out....the stock market went up 70% and your approval rating plummeted faster than any president in history. The stock market is not the economy.....that was a bush lie. What's good for wall street is bad for main street. And what's good for main street is bad for wall street. Choose one obama. obamageddon or real change that americans voted for. And, I don't care what celente says about obama....I can think for myself....obama was handed the biggest pile of bush !@#$ ever....and bush turned the country over to fascism in Sept. 2008. obama has to choose. If they're going to let bush tax cuts expire....I'm voting all democrats in November.
