Now that there's going to be a new President ....?

Do you think it's time congress started looking into the former president George Bush's' (shall we say "doings" for lack of a better word) for his past actions?

    Although there is no question Bush has exercised Presidential authority to an extreme level, and some would say abusive level, there's really not much anyone can do.

    What past actions? The Congress had the same information and the voted for going to war with Islamic terrorism. They also had the power to stop anything they didn't 100% agree with.

    The problem is, they knew what we did was right, but that it would hurt their reelection chances, so they say it's all the Republican's fault.

    Democrats have been in control of both houses for a few years now. All they've done is bring down banks and cause unemployment by raising the minimum wage.

    Yes, let's look at the "doings" of Congress instead.

    There should be some investigations into Obama's dealings with Tony Rezko, William Ayers and ACORN. Bush and his legislative actions protected this country from terrorist attacks for 7 years. He also had a good record on the economy until the Congress and Senate became a Democrat majority nearly 2 years ago.

    If they were to look into Bush's, they'd have to look into each president's doings prior to his watch...in all fairness.

    I'm not glorifying the man and I certainly don't agree with everything he's done; but people tend to lay the blame for all our present day problems on him ~ and I don't believe that's fair.

    If you're going to take a picture, take a panoramic shot...not one with tunnel vision.

    What would be the point? He had the authority to do what he did as President of the United States.

    NOPE...he ain't guilty..you are badly mistaken..and that is typical for a democrat. You just aren't happy are you? You all run around yelilng the sky is falling...the sky is falling....blaming everyone..never taking responsibility for YOUR party's failures...

    Typical childish democrats. We are taking the responsiblity for CLINTON and Carter's BIGGEST fiasco's now...even though it wasn't us.
