"... funny how you liberals always blame Bush even 5 years later."

46. Yes We Should

Yes we should be blaming Dubya five years after his departure. He ran up the deficit in a war of choice in Iraq, thoroughly bungled the war in Afghanistan, failed to take measures to either control the speculation that led to the housing bubble or lessen the effects when the bubble exploded and the country plunged into recession.

As to your right-wing sparring partner: I notice that whining wing-nuts were blaming former President Clinton for Dubya's messes all the way through Buckaroo Bush's time in the White House. Not only that, when the housing bubble exploded and the tide of evidence showing the links between Republican politicians, those politicians' and activists' policies and the financial melt-down came to light, did right-wingers take the time out for self-reflection and reappraisal of their crowd's actions? HELL NO! They went back and tried to put the blame on Jimmy Carter!

As far as I'm concerned, the Rethuglies and the Teabaggers deserve blame for their actions for at least the next twenty years and if global warming proves as bad as some say, the next several centuries.
