Indeed. If fact, Bush did what no president in history did to my knowledge. He lowered taxes for the rich as he waged war, thereby raising the national debt both substantially and irresponsibly. And as Obama picks his way through the rubble trying to put the pieces back together again, you have the audacity to point your finger at him. As for health care reform that the Republicans are now all talking about, where were they during the Bush years when Bush was lowering taxes for the rich? Lowering taxes that increased the national debt your children will have to pay for, all the while encouraging increased consumer spending as Americans sunk further into personal debt. Meanwhile, more and more Americans were steadily losing their health care coverage for one reason or another and gradually facing financial ruin. As I recall, Bush is your hero, right?

Not sure about that. A bunch of white wingnuts (what, 150K people?) Protesting. If mainstreet hated him you would see millions standing in front of the white house last week. How many were out there protesting?
It's called a government debt bubble. They are probably celebrating that a lot of it is phased in later, but in any event it's monumentally stupid to equate a few days of market activity now with what may happen in 5 years
Stock market down >10% since Obama care was passed. Wallstreet sure loves Obama care! This is what happens when you get a commie dipshit for a president who is intent on getting his agenda rammed through, and doesnt care about private sector job creation during one of the worst economies in history.
