The war never should have been started in the first place. Bush started his illegal war, Obama is dealing with the mess.

Economic collapse was well underway under GW. Bush took us from
surplus to the
chains of debt. Giving the rich those tax cuts did nothing to help anyone except the rich. It will take several presidents to dig our way out of the giant Guatemala sized hole that GW put us in.

Under Obama, it got worse and the only sector hiring is government, by over 25% in growth, who pays for that? Taxpayers? Not if they aren't working

Again, economic collapse was initiated under GW. Millions of jobs vanishing are part & parcel with the economic meltdown. GW owns it entirely.

Unconstitutional panic legislation is not a solution. Obama is a lawyer's lawyer. I have confidence in that and will side with the government on this one.

Interesting. It has had zero effect for me whatsoever so far. I didn't have health insurance before, and I still don't. Your buddy should count his blessings.... not only does he have health insurance, he has a fucking job. Tell him to stop whining.

Versus letting the banks continue to run wild and rape the public? I'll take any regulations they want to slap down on the fucking bankers.
