Largely do to the trillion dollar deficit,2 wars and depression he came into office with Its not like Obama came into office with a balanced budget,no wars and a decent economy and turned it into 5 trillion in debt and a trillion dollar deficit...that does sound familiar though
Are you referring to The NATO mission with no ground troops ? While that is war it is a NATO mission and The US is obligated to support NATO missions. Its much different then the Iraq war which will cost over 4 trillion,took the lives of 4500 Americans and over 100,000 civilian Iraqis and wounded 30,000 Americans that Obama just ended
Bernanke is off the hook. All he has to do is remind us is that he had Obama, Reid and Pelosi to work with. The Big Brains in the govenment! ha ha LOL.

http://articles.cnn.com/2002-01-14/...zel-vital-signs-white-house?_s=PM:ALLPOLITICS Bush on fainting episode: 'Chew your food' Bush lost consciousness for a brief time in the White House on Sunday evening while eating a pretzel and watching a professional football game on television. He fell from his couch and has a scrape and large bruise on his left cheekbone, plus a bruise on his lower lip, to show for his troubles. His glasses cut the side of his face. "I hit the deck," is how Bush described the mishap as he left the White House for his current two-day trip, which is focusing on economic issues during stops in Illinois, Missouri and Louisiana.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn/A7372-2004Feb2?language=printer Bush's Guard Service In Question Questions about Bush's Guard service first surfaced during the 2000 presidential race, when he ran against Vice President Al Gore, a Vietnam veteran. A review of Bush's military records shows that Bush enjoyed preferential treatment as the son of a then-congressman, when he walked into a Texas Guard unit in Houston two weeks before his 1968 graduation from Yale and was moved to the top of a long waiting list. It was an era when service in the Guard was a coveted assignment, often associated with efforts to avoid active duty in Vietnam. Bush was accepted for pilot training after having scored only 25 percent on the pilot's aptitude test, the lowest acceptable grade. In 2000, the Boston Globe examined a period from May 1972 to May 1973 and found no record that Bush performed any Guard duties, either in Alabama or Houston, although he was still enlisted. According to military records obtained by The Washington Post, Bush first requested and received permission in May 1972 to be transferred to the Alabama National Guard so he could work on a U.S. Senate campaign. After he was in Alabama, he received notice from the Guard personnel center that he was "ineligible" for the Air Reserve Squadron he requested. In August 1972, Bush was suspended from flying because he failed to complete an annual medical exam. A month later, Bush requested to be assigned to a different unit in Alabama and was approved. Although he was required to attend periodic drills in Alabama, there is no official record in his file that he did.
Is it possible for you to answer my post in one of your posts? You shouldn't kid yourself on the roll the US played. Regardless of ground troops or not, the $$ is where the issue is here. As for the deficit, you're right. Blame the situation he inherited. But Hopey McChange didn't do anything to right any of the wrongs, he just kept on spendin' through it. At any rate, when voters go to the polls next November, they won't be thinking "Bush bush bush" like you do.
