Bush Reconsidered ......

Yet, as with all presidents, with time and a successor come perspective. So it is not hard to see why the out-of-office Bush’s likability ratings are slowly inching back up — most recently to 46 percent. For reflection on Bush’s eight years in office, take a look back at the six aspects of his presidency that harmed his popularity most — Iraq and its attendant controversies, the federal response to Hurricane Katrina, the so-called Bush-Cheney anti-terrorism protocols, the September 2008 financial meltdown, the chronic budget deficits, and the general impression that Bush was singularly inarticulate and prone to embarrassing gaffes.

CBS Praises Obama for Post-Sandy Visit, Attacked Bush for Same with Katrina......

Drive-by Media double standard...nooooo.....REALLY?!
 CBS News aired a segment full of praise for President Obama's visit to Staten Island in the wake of Hurricane Sandy Friday. But this positive spin is in stark contrast to the scolding the network gave President Bush when he visited the Gulf Coast after Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005.

Father of fallen Marine upset by president's letter....

Young said that it appears Obama's predecessor, George W. Bush, wrote more personal, individualized, sometimes hand-written notes to the families of soldiers.

Obama's Re-Election Case Rests On 5 Phony Claims....

 Excellent Read! Pass it on!

That argument appears to be working. More people continue to blame Bush than Obama for the current poor state of affairs, and some surveys show that consumer confidence has recently increased.

But each part of Obama's argument is based on claims that are not accurate:

Top Obama Fundraiser To Release Bin Laden Film 2 Days Before Election....

Not TOO desperate are we?
 Imagine this were a Republican doing this...Imagine the howls!
I believe all the ground work was done by the MILITARY...
I believe Bin Laden was taken care of by the MILITARY......
I believe ALOT of the ground work had been done for the previous...7 plus years under GWB after 9/11.....
Heck....didn't I hear they had to pull Obama off the golf course for this?

A film dramatizing the death of Osama bin Laden is set to debut next month on the National Geographic Channel, two days before the presidential election.

“Seal Team Six: The Raid on Osama bin Laden,” from The Weinstein Co. and Voltage Pictures, will air Sunday, Nov. 4, the channel said Thursday. President Barack Obama faces Republican challenger Mitt Romney at the polls two days later.

Washington Post Fact Checker Awards Three Pinocchios to Obama ‘Econ Patriotism’ Ad.....

Blame Bush....Blame Bush....blah...blah...Blah!!!!

But let‘s put aside the specifics of Romney’s tax plan (what little there are) and his stance on Wall Street reform and focus on the notion that tax cuts and deregulation caused the Great Recession.

Did the Bush-era tax cuts lead to the meltdown? To put it bluntly, there is nothing to support this claim.

FCC Chair Defends Regulations, Calls FCC a ‘Cop on the Beat’ .....

Just another power grab where Government can once again try to pick the winners and losers.....can anyone say Solyndra and Evergreen.... 

Now, imagine if you will, the headline if this were GWB...

"Bush's FCC CHAIR TO RULE the Internet World with MONSTROUS POWER GRAB - the FIRST AMENDMENT is shredded!"

And what do we get right now on the News broadcasts..?.....crickets chirping...


Critics point to the lack of disputes between companies and Internet providers, noting that no provider has ever shut an Internet-based company out of the market or deliberately limited bandwidth. Critics also point out that the only case in which a bandwidth dispute has arisen – between Verizon and a music-sharing website – the two companies came to an agreement without the need of government involvement.

The 10% President......

Quit trying to place the blame - FIX it!

A question raised by President Obama's immortal line on CBS's "60 Minutes" on Sunday—"I think that, you know, as President, I bear responsibility for everything, to some degree"—is what that degree really is. Maybe 70% or 80% of the buck stops with him? Or is it halfsies?

Nope. Now we know: It turns out the figure is 10%. The other 90% is somebody else's fault.
