Don't any of you remember what happened in 2008?
There is no "horrible Bush years" for the economy. The economy kicked ass and unemployment was super low.
What killed the economy was the collapse of the housing market. Nothing else.
Why everyone has a hard on and thinks that Bush tax cuts caused the recession is just ridiculous. And remember...Pres. Obama insisted that they be KEPT his entire presidency too.
Tax cuts have nothing to do with the economy collapsing and neither did Bush. The housing market collapse did it at the end of 2008.
And that was caused by Republican and DEMOCRAT politicians in the House and Senate who were busy funneling money back to the big banks who contribute to their campaigns.
And those same Democrat & Republican Senators and House Congressman who voted for that stuff are still in power and talking shit trying to fool you into thinking they didn't do anything wrong so they can keep their career politician jobs.
What Bush did was take away a big chunk of our freedom and privacy. And get us involved in stupid wars.
But the economy?
When Obama said in his speech that it took "decades" to create the mess and he can't clean it up in 4 years (though he pledged to do so at the beginning of his term. lol)...that was a lie.
The economy was roaring up until the housing crash.
Fix that, and you fix the economy.
