This is one thing that should have happened years ago. Now Obama is fixing Bush's mess.

You honest to god think what he is saying is actually going to happen?

Since everything was supposedly Bush's fault, why the fuck have the Democrats who were in power of Senate and House since 2007 not fixed stuff already.  They have had 4 years already!!!!  If people are going to continue fucking blaming the republicans and bush for wreaking everything, then fucking fix it.  You have had 4 years, and have shown you do not have the ability to fix it either.

Do you know how big the defecit is? Do you really think it will take ONE term for the economy to be back on it's feet again? It took around three terms to ruin the economy, so it will take more to fix it. It's not ike the democrats sit around and do nothing.

Oh, I'm not saying at all that the deficit should be fixed just like that.  As the comment below mine says, I am trying to get at how it has actually simply gotten worse since the democrats have held congress, not better.  They have done absolutely nothing to fix the situation, and now they somehow have some magical solution they say will work...I feel like I'm told this crap all the time by politicians, but it has yet to actually happen.
