Obama: Bush Is “John McCain’s President”

• August 19, 2008

Of all the tiresome rhetoric the left throws around about Bush this has got to be among the most loathsome.

I don’t think any American has to like a given President. Certainly I wouldn’t like a President Obama. But I do think that if you love this country, and you love our system of government, you have to at least acknowledge that the national leader that system put into power.
You cannot say “I am an American” and then say that Bush isn’t your President. Bush is your President, through the workings of the very system of government that makes America what it is. For Obama to say that Bush is not his President but rather just John McCain’s President is to spit on the very democratic process Obama hopes will make him President.
It’s dangerous to have political figures as high of profile as Obama saying such things. Our nation is held together only by our mutual consensus that our system of government is legitimate. Even we become too flippant about the legitimacy of our leaders we shake the very foundations of our government.
Obama should apologize for this.

I think most of us probably would agree that NOBAMA is arrogant, out of touch, an elitist, condescending, and basically a self serving moron. The only thing I see out of him is fancy speeches and questionable friends. I will not vote for him because he is a blither Marxist/socialist. I can’t not figure out how anyone can fawn over this clown, he is more unimpressive than Goron and Lurch. How NOBAMA got this far is a head scratching and puzzling.

Obama also said that we have endured “8 years of a horrible economy” under Bush.

Excuse me? 6 years of sub-5% unemployment and +3% GDP was “horrible”? And what, Mr Obama, did Bush do to single-handedly cause the current difficult times?

Did he cause the banking crisis? No. Did he cause the housing bubble? No. Did he cause high gas prices? No. Exactlt WHICH of Bush’s pilicies have wrecked the American Economy?

Why hasn’t the public noticed when all the bad news started bubbling up from the MSM? It seems all that bad stuff started happening when the country elected to both houses a democrat majority. Is there a connection there? Or were the dems and the MSM just getting in the election mode. Can anyone still remember when President Bush said we had to do something about Social Security and the dems said there wasn’t a problem. Now who is beating their breasts about Social Security. I wonder how a non crisis has now turned into a crisis?

Bill Mitchell,

You ask entirely too many pertinent questions. This is the point in the discussion where the response you’ll get is likely to be yet another ill-informed, adolescent diatribe against Bush and Cheney, another reminder how “great” the economy was (NOT!) under Bill Clinton, or another set of pointless pictures from the economics-illiterati.

There is simply no indication anywhere that Obama has a clue about economics and tax policy, or that reality is any sort of a consideration.

Clinton was NOT my choice, but he was my POTUS, even if I did not like it.

Barry is going down a spiral and it is fun to watch.

actually think Obama’s “economic disaster” claim is almost (but not quite) as bad as his claim that Bush isn’t his President.

They were talking about Obama’s economic vision for the country on Fox news this weekend and they have some buisness experts basically say that Obama would be a diaster for this country.

If an unemployment rate that’s hovering around 5%, and a GDP rate of growth that hasn’t recessed despite media claims that it would, is Obama’s idea of economic disaster he’s a fool.

But then, we knew that already.
