Republicans want to see Obama fail. They don't want to cooperate on anything with democrats. So bah humbug to the republicans. Obama needs to become more partisan to increase majorities in a democratic congress. Republicans don't have a chance in 2012 when the truth is told.

Bush was not a conservative. He was just right center, not much better than McCain. Though RINO republicans helped get the spending started, when the Democrats took over congress in 2006 Bush began to spend like the liberal he was at heart. Without a Republican controlled congress he was free to allow his social liberal tendencies to shine.
It was that economic ignorance of foolhardy spending along with the Fanny Mae/ Freddy Mac fiasco which took us down a road of destruction. Instead of reversing the ignorance, Obama, being the far left liberal that he is, more than quadrupled Bush's spending! His policies involve the spending of more of our money than all presidents before him from Washington till now combined.
In an attempt to keep this in perspective: Consider a stack of $1000 bills. Bush spent a stack about 3' tall. Obama has spent a stack 332,640' tall! That's 63 MILES people!!!
Obama is a globalist who does not have our nation's best interests at heart. I am ashamed of our current president. He is the most divisive president ever to sit in the sacred oval office. Hopefully, we are not too late and can begin to reverse the ignorance come November. Obama's policies must fail in order for the country to succeed.
