why do guys always bring things back to bush?? obama is president now, bush already did his damage......now obama is doing his. [/quote]

Maybe for the same reason the R's bring everything back to Clinton. Do you really think each administration gets a "clean slate" and that the actions of the administration before have nothing to do with current conditions? Bush's "damage" as you say, likely has much, or more, to do with our current problems as anything Obama has done. I may not like everything an administration has done, but I think it is unrealistic to blame the current administration for everything.
