    As long as there is a problem the obama crew will point the finger at W.

    Your right obama needs to put on his big girl pants and admit his promises were all lies and that he cant fix this problem because he doesn't have a clue.

    Source(s): Common sense.

    According to most economists, recessions last on average about 2-3 years. This would be the most objective way to look at it. Granted, Bush is old news by now, and the more pressing issue is what the current president is doing for people now, and in the future. I don't like blaming Bush for anything, but we need to be objective while evaluating Obama's performance and at least not blame Obama for anything that isn't his fault.

    BTW have a look at this chart which shows that Obama has already reversed the trend of job losses.

    If you look at the graph of the recession carefully, it is amazing how it started just at the time it was clear that Obama was going to beat McCain. Smart businessmen always take action based on what they anticipate is going to happen. The real trigger of this recession was when the financial sector saw the handwriting on the wall. This recession is totally caused by Obama's Marxist leanings. All the smart money went off and hid from his confiscatory policies to come. Only an idiot would wait for the hammer to fall before moving his head.

    Until the next Republican president takes office. Then he will be to blame for everything immediately when he lifts his hand from the Bible on Inauguration Day.

    Rules don't apply to Democrats. Ever.

    Everything is the Republicans' fault. Always.

    If you're married, this should sound familiar...

    Everybody remembers that Bush was blamed for 9/11, only 8 months after he took office. But the liberals now say a president shouldn't be blamed even 18 months after he took office, when the president is a Democrat.

    The double standards are so blatant, it's laughable.

    At this point blaming Bush is like kicking a dead horse. President Obama should focus on fixing what needs to be fixed and stop blaming Bush for the mess.

  • Until something good happens, then it will be because of Obama. Unless something bad happens, then it will go back to Bush.

    Come on, that's not fair. If you and your pals spent $800+ billion on a stimulus that didn't work and were super heroes in the art of job killing, wouldn't you want to blame someone else?
