Who deserves most of the blame? Congress or Bush?

[CHOPTALK]

????????

Regardless of what you may think, the best combo in the last 20 years is DEM pres, and REPUB congress.

If Obama gets in I hope we can at least get Nancy and all her buddies out of there.

Obama does not strike me as the type that is strong willed. I think he may cross the isle with the repubs as long as he gets the credit when things go well.

Thats what Billy did, and it worked.
Hopefully we can have that again if its not too late.

I'd say neither or both. The real fault is with people who put up with the system which is pretty much everyone.

BTW "isle" is another word for "island". The space between two sections of seats is an aisle. Not trying to be a jerk here, just sayin' ...

 

[Willie99]

We're all in this together

It's just easy to pretend it's somebody's fault. That way it's easy to believe it can be fixed by somebody else. Never ever take responsibility for you own life. After all, it's not your fault.

 

[roadreeler57]

Both

 

[Uno]

obviously both but you start at the very top.

 

[DarrylParsons]

Not sure about starting from the top when, in America, the top gets there via the collective will of the bottom and middle.

 

[Willie99]

and blame him for the failures at Freddie & Fannie, the root causes of all this evil?

 

[zeeman]

Bush needs to be blamed. He's made many obvious bad decisions. The trend started when he was Govenor of Texas. One of his most famous blunder's was when he allowed the execution of Carla Faye Tucker. This was a no brainer for any Governor. Carla Faye Tucker's life should have been spared, but Bush was too closed minded, inflexible and politically motivated to stay the execution. What a dumb ass he is!!!!!

How about the retarded american people who did this to THEMSELVES?
Im sick of stupid mother fuckers making BAD decisions then blaming it on the government. "Its all Bush's Fault" No its not you moron, its your fault for gettin into a 500,000$ house when you can afford a 150,000$ house. Not to mention the 3 SUVs you just needed to have. Its peoples stupid fault for not READING the papers the mortgage company gave them, telling them their payment would quadruple in 3 years.


But no, its all bushes and congress's fault....Im not sayin they did the best job, but THE AMERICAN PEOPLE need to take some fucking responsibility for their own actions sometimes

without a doubt they/we are on the list as well of those to blame. but it starts at the top.

 

[Redneckman]

Bullshit.

 

[cussin'it]

I voted Congress, though the blame is widespread, they had the ability to act much much sooner
