Record foreclosures were caused largely by people buying homes they couldn’t afford in the first place not to mention the total mismanagement of Freddie and Fannie (run by Democrats) forcing banks to make bad loans. Watch the hearings on YouTube, it’s all there.

For most normal people you can't buy a $500,000 home at market peek that sold for half of that a few years earlier with 100% financing, interest only payments and double the property tax and expect to keep the house.

Gas prices sky rocket - The President doesn't control gas prices. Who blocks drilling for new oil and building new gas refineries? Democrats

Katrina mismanagement - Katrina was mismanaged before, during and after by their own state also run by Democrats.

Enron (Bush's pals) - oh please.

Abu Graib - I agree, holding terrorists that want to kill Americans is a bad thing.

Largest federal deficit in history - Totally Bush's fault for sure, no question about that.....and Obama wants to make it even larger.

Don't forget the Jimmy Carter years of double digit inflation, unemployment, gas lines, etc. You remember? Democrats had the majority in congress congress for 30 + straight years.

My point has always been, Government generally makes a mess of things Republican or Democrat.

I don’t trust them with my money anymore and now they want another trillion. I’d feel the same way if Bush, McCain or anyone else was President.
