My question still stands....

Who else would be to blame? You cannot just put all the blame on Clinton after all the price of housing shot through the roof in 2005.

Don't worry Roger, it'll tank again after the commercial sector gathers steam.

Hope My A$$

You think whatever you need to think to feel better about it all, Roger.......I'm reminded of a Jethro Tull song here: "Living In The Past".....

I'm more concerned about digging out of the mess we're in, not creating NEW messes like BHO is obsessed with doing....PLEASE tell me where I'm wrong....PLEASE!!!!!!!

Ahhh, it must be Obama's fault. I knew we could put the blame somewhere.

You also have the option to tell me I'm WRONG...are you saying I'm not??? Who's driving the truck now, Roger? Who gave $2 billion to BRAZIL? Who is bound and determined to grind the automobile industry into the ground? Who wants us to all pay $8 for a gallon of gas and triple our electric utility costs? Who wants us ALL to have to wait for WEEKS/MONTHS to see a doctor???????

PLEASE don't say Bush 43....that would be disingenuous for even you....

You asked about the auto industry. The auto industry was in deep trouble during the bush administration. Do you remember the auto executives that flew into Washington DC on their private jets?

You're saying BHO is "responsible" for the "ray of hope" (damn thin ray, that...) that the auto industry's PR flacks are sending out? How do you like spending YOUR tax dollars so that someone else can buy a "fuel efficient" car that they will now drive MORE since it gets better gas mileage, thus rendering any fuel efficiency ineffective? $3 BILLION worth, Roger....but what's a billion or three among victims???

US automakers have been in trouble since Jimmy Carter was President, Roger....this TOO is not Bush 43's fault....sorry....

My neighbor just traded in for a new car under CFC. They have a new baby girl, decent jobs, and can afford the new car. It has the newer straps for baby seats, and all the new safety features. I am happy for them. I'm also glad to see my tax dollars going to help GOOD people, rather than Iraqi infrastructure, Haliburton executives, or AIG luxury retreats. I'm also glad for the 1300 workers who have been recalled to GM, and may not lose their houses for now. I don't mind helping my fellow Americans out of a tough spot. I asked WWJD, and it was "help your neighbor".

And how much can you help them now that "Clunkers" is over with again? They're already out of money, the dealers aren't getting paid, and the auto workers are going to be laid off again because new car sales will now tank again. Nice plan. It has "Democrat" written all over it...and we tax payers are out another 3 billion dollars.

Thumb in the dyke regards...

Ummmm....that would be "dike," Evan........and I agree totally....
