All the mess that was created under Bush. The mess in Iraq, destabilizing the Middle East, the economy, the disastrous and deficit creating Bush Tax Cuts, protecting BP and so on. What do Republicans take responsibility for? Anything? Why do they think they can blame everything, even Iraq, on Obama and the Democrats?
Spoken like a true brainwashed Liberal Socialist... WHERE do we begin?! Oh yeah....
1. The economy:
Liberals love to blame the bad economy on Bush, declaring that the last 2 years of the Bush administration is where the economy began to nose-dive. These are the same Liberals who agree that it is Congress that cotrols the purse strings, not the President, and thus the economy. What you will NEVER hear them admit AFTER this, though, is how the economy started to nose dive under DEMOCRATIC PARTY CONTROL. The DEMOCRATS controlled Congress, thus the purse strings / the economy, during the last 2 years of the Bush administration.
The 1st law that effected the US economy under Obama was the disasterous 'STIMULUS' Bill. This nearly $1 TRILLION dollar nightmare consisted of over 7,000 pieces of DNC-ONLY pork (despite Obama's promise to NOT allow pork into legislation he would sign). It contained failed spending like 'shovel-ready' construction projects - that Obama was forced to admit did not exist, the 'used-car' bomb, and the socialistic act of 'nationalizing' GM (resulting in a partial sell-off of the US-owned car maker to a foreign owner, violating US Bankruptcy law..), and the eventual LOSS of millions of tax dollars when the govt sold off MOST of their GM stock at a loss. In the end, the failed 'jobs bill' ended up cost tax payers over $774,000 PER JOB reported as 'created' / 'saved'. )It was also reported by many companies that in its final talley the govt was falsely claiming numbers of jobs created / saved. One company Obama claimed to have SAVED more jobs at his company than total people who actually worked there.)
Prior to becoming President, Obama call Bush 'UN-Patriotic' for adding $4 Trillion in debt over 8 years during 9/11/01, the economic shutdown that followed, and during 8 (EIGHT) years of war. Ironically, after becoming President, Obama added OVER $6 TRILLION in debt in over 4 (FOUR) years! Obama set new U.S. RECORDS for 'monthly', 'annual', and 'total' deficit-spending during that time. Not long after Obama was warned that if he did not accept some of the GOP's recommended budget cuts as a sign that he took his growing debt seriously the bank would down-grade the US Credit rating. Obama - not the Republicans - rejected the proposed budget cuts ... and as promised, the Bank initiated the 1st down-grade of the US Credit Rating in U.S. History. How did Obama react? He sent several govt agencies to audit, inspeact, and intimidate the bank that had the NERVE to do what they warned they would do.
More people are now on Food Stamps, Welfare, and use other government social programs than any any other time in US history. Over 93 MILLION Americans are out of work, full-time employment is at its lowest in decades, the unemployment rate for blacks is more than DOUBLE that of whites (which is higher than reported because Obama refuses to use the numer of 93+ millions out of work to calculate his unemployment rate...so it isn't so high)..... The Obama administration has also passes a RECORD number of highly-restrictive business-destroying regulations... And let's not forget Obama's own personal illegal invasion and his recently granting approx 11 million Illegals the authority to compete with the 93+ million Americans for available jobs AND the massive finacial burden of supporting the millions of illegals Obama is responsible for having illegally brought / allowed into this country.
Hmmm....so WHY would the Liberals, who have been in control of the US Economy since the beginning of the last 2 years of Bush's last term in office, be blamed for the failing economy?
