On blaming Bush we just have to agree to disagree. Your anger at Bush is blinding you to the truth about Obama (you are not alone in my view). You will lose him in January 2009 as a focal point of your anger although let me make a prediction and we'll see if you have the temerity to acknowledge at some point that I was right.

If Obama wins then anything negative that happens during his administration will be blamed on either 1) the legacy of Bush; 2) Republicans in Congress; or 3) both. Let's see how eager you will be to blame Obama for ANYTHING or whether your "man at the top gets the blame" philosophy gets tossed aside casually. And the media will provide you all the cover you need because they are part of his campaign and wil do anything to protect themselves from accepting blame for their role in the election process.

I find it ironic that the debate about the media being liberal is finally over (after 20 years of inane denial). They have given up all pretense of objectivity in favor of an unknown chralatan that I believe has the potential to be a disaster for this country. I hope to be proven wrong about how he will be if he wins the White House but I seriously doubt it.

I am going to be just like every other small business owner and plan for retraction due to even higher taxes and regulation by government. The sad part is I will do OK but the middle calss people that work for me (and by the way I have gone from 10 to 200 employees during the allegedly "disasterous" Bush years) are the ones that will lose their jobs. Americans never seem to be able to grasp that we tried this with Jimmy Carter and got stagflation and a national malaise.
