Maxed out credit cards are Bush's fault, too?

Question

According to Barack Obama tonight, they are a result of "The failed policies of George Bush".

Answer 1

Of course.  Liberals have no sense of personal responsibility, so they must blame someone else.

Answer 2

As a conservative who thinks bankruptcy is horrible I think the congress should be hung for allowing the Credit Card Companies to write the new Bankruptcy laws. And Bush should've vetoed the law. It may have slowed the housing collapse.

The laws that should have been written should've made it impossible to increase rates without an unmitigated cause.

Answer 3

Did George Bush hold a gun to everyone's head that has a maxed out credit card telling them to do this? No. Quit the blame game. George Bush is just the representative of the country. True policy change comes from the senate and congress. Blame those guys. But our mortgage and credit problems come from the mortgage companies and the credit card companies.

Answer 4

lol yep...

didnt you know...that its the presidents fault for you spending more then you can afford. like duh what where u thinking... the president should tell you when you shouldnt buy something... why would you be responsible for your on actions???

haha

Answer 5

Yes, according to the messiah, anything bad is George Bush's fault. Milk went bad in your fridge before you could drink it? Yep, Bush's fault. You doing an impulse buy on a credit card? The direct fault of Bush.

Now conversely, anything that happens that is GOOD is NOT Bush's doing: The GDP grew at 3% last quarter, not Bush's doing, but the messiah's. PEPFAR, I know the liberals will have to look this up. I dare a liberal to explain what PEPFAR is. This is not Bush's doing, but instead it is Obama's.
