    Default Struggling to survive

    Because of George Bush, my parents are struggling to survive. My dad lost his weekly bonus at work and sometimes he's only able to work four days a week because of this recession.

    I give my parents some money once a month but they're still struggling. My mom is having to use the little spending money she has to pay bills. They're barely able to make it.

    If things get worse, my dad may be out of a job altogether and he may go under. Bush may have high hopes of getting us out of this recession but I have serious doubts.

    Bush got us into this recession and many people like my dad are suffering. I doubt that John McCain can end this recession either.

    Bush's dad also got us in a recession and it took a democrat to get us out of it. Republican Presidents tend to get us into recessions. Democrat Presidents don't.

    President Hoover was a republican and he was the President when the Great Depression began. At the moment George Bush is as popular as Hoover and that's not very popular.

    I doubt that McCain can do a better job than Bush. On November the 4th Obama is going to be my choice.

    We are not in a recession. I do not see how anyone can blame any President for their issues in life

    Obama tax and spend policies, and wanting the government to take over large parts of the private sector will give us a repeat of the Carter years. That was a bad economy

    And curiously the republican tools on this site repeat the same tiring wingnut mantras: Taxes, spending, liberals. To paraphrase Joe Biden, all the conservative tools need is a noun, a verb, and "taxes" and they have exhausted their thought power.



    "This is the Bush-McCain economy. Senator McCain may have forgotten, but President Bush already tried his economic policies and the results are not good. We have just been through a business cycle in which the wage of the typical worker and the typical working family fell. This is the first time that has ever happened."

    Fact - Obama wants over $2 trillion in new taxes

    Fact - Obama has proposed over $1 trillion in new spending

    Fact - Obama is the #1 rated liberal

    Obama is a tax and spend liberal

    Want some cheese with that whine?

    There is no recession. There are banks going belly up due to mismanagement. Has nothing to do with Bush.

    Maybe, and this may be a stretch, your parents should be held accountable for their own actions. Did they invest enough in the past? did they properly prepare for their future? Do they have a lifestyle that they can cut back on? How exactly is it the President's fault your dad lost his bonus? Did Bush call and tell his boss to stop giving it to him?

    I am so tired of the "it is Bush's fault" mantra being spouted. I teach my 15 and 12 year old that they, and only they, are accountable for what happens. It isn't the teachers fault, the coaches fault, and it sure isn't the President's fault.

    And this financial "crisis" we are going through is just as much the previous administration's responsibility, as well as congresses.

    Hey, I have not gotten a raise in nearly two years when I used to get annual raises. Our wages are frozen for now and there is no telling how long that will last, but that is not President Bush's fault. The economy moves in cycles which is something every 15 year old should know and understand. There is nothing any President can do about it... period.

    I don't know how old you are Randy, but I think you should give your accusations a rest until you can actually think about what you are saying rather than letting the Democrats think for you.

    It's a wise choice. Like everything else he's touched, Bush has made a disaster of the American economy. The unemployment rate is significantly higher than when he was inaugurated and we've lost hundreds of thousands of jobs. Real income has fallen and we can't even borrow to help with the rough spots.
