Reflecting back on 8 years of Dubya

Things Mr. Bush was responsible for:

2 wars (1 necessary, 1 not so necessary)
Countless problems with security.
Continued loss of personal freedoms thanks to the Patriot Act
The lowest approval rating ever

I don't feel that Dubya deserves the blame for the economy.  We've got the Democratic and Republican led Congresses for the economic problems.  I've seen far too many people point the finger directly at Bush for the economy and frankly, he doesn't deserve that.  Nancy Pelosi and her Democratic Friends deserve as much of the blame for that as the Republican leadership in the House and the Senate.  As an avowed Libertarian, I'll remind my readers again that Democrats and Republicans got us into all the messes that we're in right now, not just President Bush.  I don't like Bush and haven't liked him for quite some time.  If you look back over the course of this blog, you'll see that, so don't take me as a Bush Supporter or a Bush apologist.  I'm as glad as anyone to see him go.  I just don't feel that he deserves the blame for the economic state of the nation.  

Goodbye Mr. Bush and Good luck Mr. Obama.
