I don't really agree with Bush's bailouts either. But it's been a year and a half since Bush left and it's way past time for Obama to stop blaming Bush.
I've read that significant amounts of the money in Bush's programs was repaid. Obama's programs gave away money with no expectation of getting it back. Cash for Clunkers anyone? $8000 credit for buying a house anyone? Maybe I should have been a less than honorable borrower too so Obama could bail out my mortgage. Obama's $750 billion stimulus supposedly saving 3 million jobs at a mere $250,000 in taxpayer money for each job 'saved'? What a bargain.
As far as Iraq, in hindsight maybe we shouldn't have gone there. However, the *bipartisan* screaming to do something about Saddam in 2002 and 2003 was pretty loud and clear.
