John of John and Ken fame in Los Angeles was railing on Bush this evening. He admitted that the Democrats were hip deep in this too, but he acknowledged that Bush had been President for eight years and had a majority Congress for a good part of that time.
I can’t rail on Bush alone. If there’s any railing to be done, it needs to cover the complicity of both parties. And Janet Reno and the Dems were hip deep in it’s inception.
What bothered me about John’s comments, is that he said that everyone was telling Bush what was about to happen, and he did nothing. Actually Bush and company were saying quite a bit about it in the last year or two, but they didn’t take action. Congress didn’t either.
Truth is, every elected official in Washington needs to be voted out. They were all complicit in this calamity. And Obama played right along, just like everyone else.
Now, can’t we do better than to let these chumps rail on the auto industry leaders. Even Toyota posted a loss this year, the first one in decades. Our leaders in Washington, D.C. really screwed this nation into the dirt over the last twenty years or so.
I never would have believed what we have done with Reagan’s legacy, if I hadn’t see it with my own eyes.
The worst thing Reagan ever did was to pick papa Bush to be his VP.
That was a far better summation than Denny Crane could ever have done! You had brilliant things to say and you said them quite well!!! Bravo!!! Encore!!!
If Gore had been POTUS for 8 years he would have taken the blame for this mess. Now I wonder how many years it will take to elect a republican, let alone conservative, POTUS or congress.
