That's why I said Bush II had his finger in the cookie jar too. 
 
All I was saying is that presidents are not SOLELY responsible, unlike the 
claims of some people who we often hear cry "It's all Bush's fault", and 
before that others in the other camp cried, "It's all Clinton's fault", and 
so on..........
 
I don't let GWB off easy.  Personally I think he had the look of a 
schizophrenic in his eyes last time I saw him on TV............    :-)

Not to get off on a tangent about GWB, and with you and Bev, I will agree that
the congress, bankers, moneychangers and such are all responsible for the
economy; but, we can't let GWB off the hook so easily -- or at least, I
won't.  

He pushed a war in Iraq (with the compliance of congress) and didn't wage
it effectively.  He pushed through (with the compliance of congress) what
started under Clinton, but was made into full oppressive law in his tenure --
H*mel*nd S*curity, P*triot A*t, F*SA, and much more.
GWB (with the compliance of congress) has diminished our personal liberties 
and
out freedoms -- that cannot be forgotten

Lisa said yesterday she had been waiting to see this documenatary.  It 
started about sixty seconds ago on CNN for anyone interested.  I know that 
many on this list do not have or watch television, but some do........
