Why do people blame Bush for this stimulus bill when this is due to the bad mortgages and CEO bad spending?

Also, please note, Bush is not the reason all this pork is in the bill. There are literally BILLIONS of dollars in this bill that WILL NOT produce jobs. And lets not forget, McCain tried warning democrats the mortgages needed monitored and dealt with YEARS ago, and they laughed at him. You can thank the new president for this.Why do people blame Bush for this stimulus bill when this is due to the bad mortgages and CEO bad spending?
The liberals blame Bush for a hurricane.They will blame him for the next 100 years.Why do people blame Bush for this stimulus bill when this is due to the bad mortgages and CEO bad spending?
I think that all of this mess started with the Bush Administration. We can not. I mean can not blame this on the new President. All we have to do now is to give the man a chance. There is a lot of pressure on him now. Bush did what he wanted to do. There has to be some strong body that can go in there and do the job. President Obama is now trying to put things back in order. This is what we have needed for thae last 8 years, I mean 8 years. Just sit back and think about it. I am sure that you can put the pieces together.
Actually we can thank Carter for the mortgage debacle. It was during his reign that it was decided that people that were neither citizens of this country or even had a job that afforded them the ability to pay for a mortgage should be allowed to have homes. Because, of course, that is the American Dream.


It was Bush and McCain that called for oversight on Fannie and Freddie (not just once either but several times) but it was good ole Barney that insisted that there was no problem with them..it was all good.


History will show that George Bush while not a GREAT president, definitely was a good one. he kept this country safe after 9/11. Bullies don't like it when someone stands up to them. Up until 9/11 America had not stood up to Bin Laden or his ilk.


We now have another appeaser in the office and the bullies (terrorists) love it. They have already perceived him as ';weak';, who knows what will happen next.
I agree with what you're saying, but it's because Bush was the leader at that time, so unfortunately, the blame falls on him. He should've spoken out more about the mortgage doom. He should make a huge case about it and cry about it to the media until they're sick of it. Just so the media can know that he tried his best.





Yes, Barney Frank is an idiot.
The buck stops with the president, Bush was the president
