Lets not forget Republican filibusterss killing bills non stop that would have helped the ecconomy.

1) Yes, 2008 would be when the economic crash happened. That has nothing to do with George Bush. The recovery always starts eventually, and there's nothing to suggest that Obama caused it.
2) Though I agree that House Republicans are dreadful, the 2007-2009 congress was Democrat and still got nothing done. In general, the house is useless.
3) That would be because most of his income comes from capital gains, and I don't really see how it's a bad thing. You could increase capital gains taxes overall, but then the investing teacher is punished too.
Consider, instead, that Romney paid a little over $3 million in tax, and the teacher paid $10,000.
