Keep in mind that 8 years of nothingness was better than 1 year of going downhill at somewhere past the speed of sound. . . . . thats my 2 cents.

What is the reason for my rant? I am truly disappointed about the time/place/reason for the Iraq invasion. This really put a huge dent in the priority of the Afghan Invasion, which I was 100% for from the start! But I was poking the stick at Fox News, (not Bush nor the Republican party), and only quoted what was said, whole quotes, not chopped. I even put some stuff about CNN and Courik (who I only watched once). Then I get 50 replies calling me a liberal (I don't even know what that really is any more), ass****e, and what really pissed me off, 'UN-AMERICAN' And was told I was spewing rhetoric. Even if it was a simple statement of fact. Now, to wrap up, just so you know, Because I have mentioned this many times before: I HATE, AND DO NOT TRUST EITHER PARTY! Hillary scares the ever loving crap out of me. And I am very worried that she will make it to the Oval Office one day. I would much rather have Bush again, than her at all!

However, let's not forget that Obama inherited an economy that was in the meltdown phase. Just like Bush pretty much inherited 9/11. Bush and Greenspan allowed housing to get way out of control, but that might have also been what got him re-elected. In 2004, when we bought this townhouse at $333K, the housing market was on fire. The following year, this place was worth $395K and we were able to refinance it and get rid of our second mortgage. Now, this place is worth $305K. People that were using their homes as ATM's during Bush's Presidency can no longer do so. Hence, the huge drop in consumer spending. Also, keep in mind that Bush and Paulson was pushing for the first bailout package. Essentially, all of our politicians suck and are a bunch of do nothing fat cats that are looking out for corporate America. On the flip side, Americans are a bunch of greedy people that want everything now and don't want to work hard for it and save for a rainy day. Not saying that applies directly to people on this board, but to the majority of Americans out there.
