Why is Bush blaming the rise in the federal deficit on a sagging economy and the economic stimulus pkg?

Question

...will the man ever admit to a wrong?He failed to do a good job as President-does complicating it more than that just offer a cloud for he and his friends to hide behind?

Answer 1

Because he blew our money on the war and didn't get a return as soon as he expected, its very inappropriate that he blames that on anything else, also he is to much into paralyzing and selling fear then making our country strong which is the complete utter opposite of fear, he didn't look at the people and really try to get down to the grit(like what kind of jobs do we need for americas future) he looked at other countries and said what can I get, foreign diplomacy went out the window, racism increased at home,and homeland security offering credit to illegals to justify THE ENEMY ALSO, to secure our border needlessly while stirring **** in our homeland kettle, can anyone say fiasco, this is gross mismanagement of our country.

Answer 2

He's actually quite correct. Tax collections come largely from taxes on individual and corporate income. When those stop rising, what do you think happens to revenues? Now, Congress could offset that by spending reductions, but (wait, I can't stop laughing).
