Isn't it funny that when there is a republican in the white house its his fault when the economy is bad?

    No No No..........read your Fox crib sheet again.-......

    that's suppose to read "WHEN THE ECONOMY IS BAD, IT'S BECAUSE OF THE DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS, BUT WHEN THE CONGRESS IS REPUBLICAN, THEN ITS TOTALLY THE FAULT OF THE DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT. "

    what I like about republicans, is that can mix that up anyway they want, to always suit their needs, to blame anything and everything on democrats.

    Which I guess at the end of the day means, that republicans, really dont control or influence ANYTHING. .....since its ALWAYS the democrats fault.

    HUH.........well, if only that were TRUE skippy,.. but it's NOT.

    Fact is, time and time again, it's a democrat who has to either come in and clean UP, or gets stuck holding the BAG, for a ruinous run of republican "leadership"

    Carter paid for 12 years of Nixon and Ford, and now you want to hang Obama for the 8 year reign of error that was BUSH.

    NO SALE. Take that bag of fertilizer elsewhere.

    The economy wasn't just bad under Bush. It crashed. President Obama was handed a disaster. Bush didn't want to regulate Wall Street. Look at what happened. Republicans suffer from memory loss.

    i do no longer comprehend why anybody might think of that Bush's numbers are greater useful than Clinton's, because of the fact economists checklist that no longer only under Clinton, yet under Democratic presidency the U. S. financial equipment grows faster, the dollar is superior, and all around each physique does greater useful....properly, each physique different than approximately 2% of rich people, who do practically the comparable! the reason the financial equipment is lots greater useful under democratic presidency is with the help of the fact there is greater concentration on important different and little ones subjects, there are greater jobs created, and the tax payers making decrease than a $200k according to twelve months get a tax destroy which permits them to spend that money on different issues, stimulating the ecomony. greater money on your pocket = greater belongings you will purchase = greater money for the businesses = greater taxes being paid by potential of the businesses = much less money persons would desire to pay in income tax = greater money on your pocket....you notice the place this is going? somewhat it makes a great style of expertise once you destroy it down.

    Republicans gave President Bush high approval ratings throughout his entire 2 terms in Office.

    After he rammed TARP through Congress, they even went UP.

    So either they thought the economy was great or they weren't blaming Bush. Either of those prove Republicans are delusional.

    The last time the economy was bad when a Republican was president: Herbert Hoover. Then FDR came along and made things worse.

    Pffft. Name me ONE Republican who ever took responsibility for their bad economy. And yet, it is undeniably true that it has been the REPUBLICAN administrations who ruined America's economy. Over and over and over.

    And it has been the Democratic administrations who have had to go in and clean it up. Except that THIS time, it's much more difficult to clean up a global meltdown.

    It's about "who" did "what, and "when".

    You don't get it at all.

    You'd blame firemen for not putting out your house fire in time.
