is it me or do the republicans act like the bush years never happened? Bush came into office with a economic surplus and left with 11+ trillion dollars in debt... Bush policies left this country damn near on its knees breathing for air but you never hear republicans say anything about it. They blame President Obama For everything that is happening in this country and forget that they were the ones who who screwed up this country. I have yet to hear anything positive about the president since he been in office from republicans. if he cured cancer they still would have something negative to say. Yes things are still currently not where it should be and could be better, BUT we are WAY better off than we were 3 years ago. Before the president took office we were losing almost 800K jobs a month!! because of bush policies.

They just like to harken back to the brave white guy who liked starting wars.

(67,190 posts)Well, you can't blame Bush and support Republicans because they don't differ. Romney is Bush on steroids. $5T in tax cuts on top of Bush's, slashing environmental and financial regulations, and eagerness to invade Iran (much tough opponent than Iraq).
