Conservative govt was a failure in *every* sense of that word.

Baloney. We had at or near full employment through the years of 2001-2007. Accounting for the tech bubble and 9/11, we had at or near full employment for 80% of Bush’s two terms, with a budget deficit 1/10 of what it is this year in 2007 – the year before a real estate collapse. Corporate profits reached record levels in mid 2007, and the S&P 500 reached its height during Oct. 2007.

You libs can spin this financial fiasco all you want around Bush’s neck, but the fact of the matter is, the real estate collapse was set in stone years before Bush even became President.

Fannie and Freddie are tied to the hip of the Democratic party. And let’s not forget, your man Obama campaigned promised to halve the deficit during his first term. How’s that working for you lying sacks?
