makeithappen40 0 #76 June 24, 2009 >I don't recall anyone here claiming that he inherited a perfect economy from Bush - did you have a point with that, or are you just setting up a strawman? Yes, I do have a point. That is-both sides are responsible, just like the "roll call" results below show: http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2008/roll674.xml Also, I am not setting up a straw-man. (Do you even know what a straw-man is? Just kidding...) My point hasen't waivered in my posts, and I am still on topic. Thank you. Actually, part of my objection to your statements also involved pointing out situations where a person both blamed Bush for the 2001 recession and did not blame Obama for the 2008-09 recession. How are you doing with that search? Could it be that your waivering from making that point undoubtedly true and attacking a different argument is a straw-man? Maybe it is a red-herring. (Come over here and let's talk about what THAT is... Just kidding! Hah! This is fun) Great. It was a Democrat controlled congress from then on. Does that mean the democrats are entirely to blame? No. Does that mean the republicans are? No. Does that mean that the bailouts are a disaster created by both parties? Yes. Are you done yet? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
