Last two years? Dude, your memory sucks. Under Bush, over all, the economy was good. Obama has had almost 2nd a half years now to turn the ship...how long does it take? What is going to happen when the stimulus money runs out here in the near future? You can only blame Bush for so long. You complain about the wars, now we are in a third....that was your guy's doing. By the way, where are the war protesters now? Guess the war is ok now that Obama and their guy is backing it? You say change congress? This guy SIGNS the bills. So he holds the most blame...congress on any law recently passed could not over turn a veto...So it is Obama's deal. Oh and read up more, obviously you are confused on the current conservative Agenda.
Not far enough left? You got your healthcare ( how is that working out now), you got your huge spending bills, increases in social programs, what more do you want this guy to do? Ban oil and force every american to plant 6 trees in their yard? I am glad your boy took the birthers serious though....it shows he will capitulate to appease crazy people....but then again we already knew that..........

The economy overall was good under Bush? What planet have you been living on? Under Bush the U.S Gross Federal Debt as a Percentage of GDP went from around 55% when Bush came into office in 2001, to 85% when he left office in 2008. Bush had 8 years "to turn the ship". Which ship was he turning, the Titanic? I guess if you define lobbing a few Patriot Missles and having a few hundred troops supporting the flyover zone in Libya a "war", then you got me on that one. Bush popped Sadaam in less than a month after starting Gulf War II, yet here we are still funneling tax dollars to that effort 10 YEARS later. Not sure what media you've been watching the last six months, but every headline I've read pertaing to Boehner And The Boys is Planned parenthood, some pittance of "reducing the budget" bill, and trying to kill same-sex marriages. Your boys have had the majority in the House now for these last six months. Exactly where is their "Hopey Changey" thing?
