Bush takes swipes at Obama policies

Well, it's going to get interesting now! It's a good thing that he put some distance between his term and these statements. You can't deny the things he said other than his interrogation defense

I was pretty frustrated with W, but O scares the heck out of me. If you can't see the "change" to our lives he's making, then you must be a whole lot younger than I am

Poor George. Someone needs to remind him that all of these bailouts started on his watch.

I find it absolutely hysterical (and ironic) that Obama is starting to make GW look........(dare I say it...).....better? ROTFL~ This is how bad it's gotten. What a sad, sad, sad state of affairs!

Well at least "W" was an American, lol

I'd give you 100 stars for being able to make me laugh about the crazy state of affairs

I think ol' George should keep his trap shut for a few years yet, and concentrate on doing up his house in Paraguay.

And they were magnified 100 fold by Obama. And even made worse, if that's possible.

Obama spends money like a drunken Sailor on liberty. That's his answer to any problem that comes down the pike.

you are absolutely correct. And the fact the Obama is continuing the spending spree, it only furthers the idea that there is not partisan issues on the inside. Just on the news. SSDG (G is guy, you get the rest)

When will this end?

As long as we're all playing the blame game, let's break it down:

www.nytimes.com...

The fact is, we went from a surplus to a deficit in ten years. We didn't just have one President during that time and control of Congress has changed hands as well.

Even better

I found a place where you can purchase bumper stickers that say:

Don't blame me, I voted for the American

BTW, the "o" in the word "voted" is Obama's campaign symbol.

And let's also keep in mind that it is congress that actually spends the money. Now, when did congress become controlled by the democrats again?

ROTF! No kidding right? I mean, I just don't even comprehend how all this happened! ...and yes I threw my vote away by voting for Nader (also an American!) but I stand by that dammit!

Carter and Clinton first, OK?

Remember that until Carter and Clinton started flapping their jaws, it used to be part of presidential protocol (for over 200 years!) that ex-presidents did not publicly criticize current presidents.

Now Carter is obviously a senile, old fool, but what's Clinton's excuse?

True that! Now I have always believed that the foundation for the STHF was laid down by Clinton (for a variety of reasons, international p-whipping being a biggie). Cleary GW ran with it, fell over, crapped his pants, etc. but there have been alot of players in this degredation of the system. Can't just blame one 100%. Politicians have not done a good job for quite some time now. The last one I remember being truly in good favor was Regan and I was just a lil whippersnapper then.....

How long will it be before the Democrats stop pointing fingers and start accepting responsibility for running the Country?
One of Bush's biggest mistakes was believing he could actually work with the Democrat controlled congress on a bi partisan level.

We can all sit around pointing fingers but that's not going to feed someones family.

What? You don't like a naturally born Kenyan living in the White House?

I know it........who would have ever thought that we'd refer to the 1980's as our 'golden age'. How sad is that? I was just a little kid then but I remember things being distinctly more pleasant. People were nicer, more relaxed. Despite the terrible interest rates at the time, I cannot remember anyone being particularly disturbed by it. The vibe was completely different, and we're only talking 20-25 years here.
I think I'm going to tease my hair and put on some rubber bracelets :p

Pardon Me? I thought the point of the OP is that W is pointing fingers? After spending trillions on his own watch.

I'm just setting the record straight as to who has spent what...
