BUSH on the recession

[lamboguy]

i have no problem with him blaming clinton for the problems that led up to the 2008 recession, but this man don't care who he blames, he just blamed his dad today in an interview with charles gibson. he said the countr's problems started over 10 years ago, right when his daddy was president.

in the last 8 years there has been a government of who to blame. this one takes the cake.

[ddog]

let it go , he has.

I listen to the interview, I didn't get that he was blaming his dad who was President 20 not 10 years ago. He simply stated that decisions made prior to his taking office led the the economic problems of today.

[lamboguy]

i worded it wrong delay, he said 10 years before he was president
that would have made his dad the president

[delayjf]

Then perhaps I miss understood him. What I heard him say was that decisions were made 10 years ago, before he was president which would be different than saying 10 years before I was president.

[ddog]

pointless and foolish, so if we have a derpression OR a wild recovery in 7 years who gets the credit/blame for that.

Pointless and without any understanding.

Most people couldn't tell you two actual hard facts about Bush or Clinton that proved to affect the economy of then or now with a trace of doubt.

Typical talk show banter , Mac "the laddy" and crew type patter, fine enough but without much substance.

Typical talk show banter

True enough, I'm sure Obermann will have a stroke with the Bush interview just like he did when Bush made the giving up golf comment.

The last gasp of a disgraced, rejected embarassment.

Hopefully, he won't speak again in public.

Thought his wife made more common sense last week with Brokaw.
