Obama Blaming Bush For Economic Is Prove Obama Does Not Know How To Fix It

Very true. The point to the WTC and NY being targets on 9/11 was to strike at America's financial centers. The point was to try to collapse our economy, or at least cause some damage. Sometimes it seems that our president has the same goal, and that is worrisome.

Great point! how about instead of blaming Bush, we blame the idiots that hit our buildings!

Just like the men that led us into this mess in the first place. Just because people lead do not mean they are good at it. Really all you need to do to become a leader in this world is to manipulate people and bully people. Some do it the right way but many of them do it the wrong way and that is what I see in Romney and many in the Republican Party. I am coming to figure out its not about doing the right thing with many of these people but its how you can manipulate people into thinking its the right thing. The problem is that seems to win out more times than not.

And President Obama is leading us in the right direction? Someone out against what he is doing and they get called in on the carpet and bullied into changing their story. That is leadership Chicago style. You are with them or you will be destroyed. Try to stop them and they will destroy you. Just look at the attacks on Gov. Romney, out right lies and when one does not work they create another and another. President Obama is doing a great job leading isn't he?

OK Bob if you say so. There is a between difference Between What Obama has had to deal with and Governor Romney has to deal with in his time in office. I first would refer you to go look up at the ways Romney made Bain so successful, from things like manipulating the government and his bank investors out of million so he could save Bain and give his top managers Bonuses when the company was sinking. He has also sent many of jobs overseas to the country he likes to talk so much smack about. He also seems like he wants American laborers to be paid the way China abuses their laborers. Just watch the whole 47 percent thing on YouTube. Its in there. He also has offshore bank accounts and a 100 million dollar trust fund to avoid paying taxes. Not to mention the many years of taxes Romney refuses to show. Yet he likes to attack half the country for not paying income taxes. All this Obama failed to mention last night or if he did, it as vague where you barely caught it. Which by the way are facts not lies. There is proof for all those things I mentioned above. The reason Romney had any kind of bipartisan success in Massachusetts was because he was working with so many Democrats. When you are that out numbered it does not take a rocket scientist to figure out what needs to be done. Here this is what Paul Ryan had to say right before he joined the ticket. http://www.theonion.com/articles/ryan-begins-attacking-romneys-record-as-massachuse,29179/ All what he mentioned was in line with Democratic views. So yes when your party is outnumbered so bad and you are Governor you are going to make concessions. Can't fault him but can't give him much credit either. The funny thing is that there is not much love for him in Massachusetts. So that might tell you something right there. Here is another about Romney's job record as Governor. It seemed very fair for both sides of the argument. http://www.wbur.org/2011/12/15/romney-jobs

"Bush had major economic growth until banking industry collapse" Bush had major economic growth BECAUSE of the housing market, and it's collapse was brought on by the banking industry. " Obama "fixes" did not work." Really? Are we still losing 700,000 jobs a month? Have we had to bail out the banks again? How about the auto industry? We actually are creating jobs. "Banks aren''t loaning. Businesses are afraid to borrow." Are you living in 2008? Banks are loaning money, and companies are borrowing. Why would you spend your own money today, when you can borrow money for basically nothing? "Costs to business have increased significantly, which is one thing that you should be well aware of." Cost if cost go up, then why haven't we seen inflation go up dramatically?

So have you been living under a rock since 2009. Obama's policies are not working. Obama, like Bush is spending us into major - major debt. I can't support either one of them. Bush had major economic growth until banking industry collapse, which we still can argue democrat or republican fault or both - this admid 9/11. Obama "fixes" did not work. Banks aren''t loaning. Businesses are afraid to borrow. Costs to business have increased significantly, which is one thing that you should be well aware of. Obama's policies are not working.

If you create more jobs and improve the economy the tax revenue will increase. If they can cut spending and increase revenue they could balance the budget sooner that that.

I would like to see a balanced budget next year and a real plan how to pay down our debt in a realistic time frame. I don't see why the government can't stop spending more than it takes in NOW.

How does it cut into the budget by 2045 when Romney has not even explained how is going to pay for his tax plan and his increased defense spending. To me his plans do not make sense. Part of the problem is we keep raising defense spending and we can never cut it.

But Obama is over spending just like Bush. Obama is not helping. He is, just like Bush, digging us in a big hole that we may never be able to dig ourselves out of. Obama has not had a budget passed. Romney wants to eliminate wasteful spending, where as Obama, in his first 2 years pretty much encouraged it. That is why the country took back the house in hopes to stop Obama. So how can any approve of what Obama is doing? How?
