That’s precisely the other phenomenon that will occur over the coming years. No matter how far BO runs us into the ditch, the media will always blame Bush. I can hear the quotes now. “Well, BO tried to fix it but Bush had things so screwed up there was no way it could be fixed. It was way worse than anyone ever told us.”

If you really take a hard honest look at the last 6 years, the economy was actually very strong even though we are fighting two wars. The FACT is, things started to turn when the Democrats took control of congress and we all know that congress are ones that control the purse strings not the president.

The second FACT is that the failure of Freddie and Fannie was the direct result of Democrats blocking regulation to fix the problem. You can’t ignore the facts; the Freddie and Fannie live congressional hearings are on YouTube for everyone to watch. During those, the Democrats even accused the Republicans of being on a witch hunt when they tried to fix Freddie and Fannie. What happened two years later? They both failed in a big way and the Republicans got blamed. How does that work?

BO made it abundantly clear every single night what he intends to do with our tax code. It WILL kill business and crush the economy. But it will somehow always be the Republicans fault no matter what he does.

I'll sign off now and stop commenting. We'll see where we end up.
