Don't Blame Bush

Don't blame Bush


October 5, 2010

The article this link leads to in the Washington Examiner is saying the very things I've been prodding the talk show commentators to get across to their listeners about from the first time I heard Obama blaming Bush for about the economy. Maybe we'll be getting an additional message out about something that is as equally important. Hasn't anyone paid any attention to what the assault on our economy - and the world's - the oil producing countries did in 2008 when they drove the price of their oil to the peak of $147 a barrel? This broke the budget of every household that was already living on the edge. It also put a strain on every industry - most directly the trucking and airline companies. Our economy was moving along very nicely until then. Who do we have to blame for not being energy independent when we could have been? Not the Republicans.
