The cause of the downturn happened due to the Congress at this time and Bush will still be blamed for a bad economy in the future. If the ecomomy turns around when Romney takes over, will the left say it is from what Obama put in place? Of course they will cause ignorance is bliss.

Three and a half years after Bush left office and the left is still blaming him for the sad state of the economy! Let's talk about the failure of the $800 billion Obama stimulus package to jump start the economy. Didn't he say unemployment would be below 6% by now? Latest official figure is 8.3%. Obama has had plenty of time to turn it around and is incapable of doing in another 4 years. His policies are just making things worse and hindering a recovery. "Iraq War Cost: 4 Trillion Dollars falls into Obama’s “budget”." Say what? “all caused by the CATASTROPHIC Bush Administration.”

Maybe instead of limited health care or procedures to seniors, they should just pass out quarts of white lightening to everyone over 65. At least you won't care about the pain for awhile. :smile: You got a smile out of me, HE, which seems to be a rarity as of late.

Blame Bush not Obama." Ashburner, you really should take a look at the CBO deficit projections for 2013. If all the Bush tax cuts (not just the ones for the wealthy) expire, it will only bring in about $300 billion a year in extra revenue and the 2012 deficit is projected to be $1.2 trillion. So you see, letting the tax cuts for the wealthy (which was really just a rollback of the Clinton tax increases) expire will not even come close to balancing the budget, even though Obama would have you believe that. See for yourself @ http://www.cbo.gov This country cannot afford 4 more years of Obama's reckless spending. “No Bush tax cuts = no debt. Blame Bush not Obama.”

Speaking of lies and Tim Geithner!!! As with Fast and Furious, if proof needs to be given by Romney then let them have the last ten years of his taxes with everything but his name and taxes paid blacked out. After all, the real object isn't to see how much money Romney made nor what breaks he legitimately received by law but to satisfy the accusation that he did pay taxes.
