		<description><![CDATA[One problem with your statement &quot;the first 9 1/2 trillion in debt your team rang up&quot; in the fact that the country had a deficit of 6 trillion before Bush took office.  Thats 3.5 trillion over 8 years, or less than 0.5 trillion per year.  The deficit ran up during President Obama&#039;s first year will be 2.5 trillion :  1.5 trillion for the budget deficit and 1 trillion for the &quot;bailout&quot; spending (765 billion for the new bailout plan, and 350 billion that he spent from the first bailout that was never spent, all of which is not included in the budget).

		<description><![CDATA[Oh, we are happy. But your comment is implying that it isn&#039;t Bush&#039;s fault that the economy is not failing now, but Obama&#039;s. I know it is getting old to hear, but how can a president of less than 3 months be the cause of years of deregulation of big businesses and lowered taxes of the wealthy causing an economic recession? If we were in such great shape, how come the Bush administration needed loans from China and Japan? And how can you not forget the trillions of dollars spent on the Iraq war? I have said this several times, but instead of increasing taxes to fund the war, the Bush administration &lt;i&gt; decreased&lt;/i&gt; them for the groups that would would supply the most. And seeing as the Congress was dominated by the Republicans from 2000-2007 [link], these tax breaks were most likely influenced by them.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yes, blaming a political party is the answer.  Because blame solves everything.

Besides you couldn&#039;t possibly blame the entire government for screwing up, it must be the &quot;enemy&quot; party.

I agree, Democrats in congress made it difficult for a republican president to get things passed, and that is a jerkwad thing to do.  However, one would think that the republicans would have been able to find a middle ground with the democrats where both parties could agree to get done what needed to be done.]]></description>
