Bush's war on terrorism hurt the economy but I supported going after those mofos that were responsible for 911 so it is what it is. The economy has taken a huge nosedive since Obama has taken over though and that can't he blamed on bush. Neither can the gas prices that have skyrocketed.
We can go back and forth all day on this but its already covered in another thread so ill quit screwing this thread up.
