The U.S. on the Precipice

WSBowles, it is frankly amazing to me that after eight years of a Bush-led White House - with Congress in tow - people like you want to assert that it is not the fault of the President and his party. Without a doubt Democrats in Congress own some of the blame but your assertion that Obama has anything to do with this frankly makes you look like an idiot.

I ask you. Which era did normal Americans do better 1992-2000 (Clinton) or 2000-2008 (Bush). I'm sure you'll assert the latter. Talk about blinded by politics. Vote Obama, he gives America a better chance than Grampa McSame and Falin.

How should Obama deal with this as our next Economist-in-Chief?
