What could he possibly tell us at this point. I don't reall understand who want that position after him. Because they have alot of mess to clean up. And it looks like with Hilary & McCain they are going to do things the same. I don't know if Obama would be a great President or not but I am tired of the same ole same ole. Something has got to give. We cannot keep putting the same people in their repeatedly and then expecting something different. We can't keep doing that America just can't afford it.

Before the bashing begins, I would just like to say that I honor Pres. Bush's service to our country. I pray for the day when we can once again disagree without tearing each other down.

This is a joke, right? Bush neither knows nor cares about America's pocketbooks, except to the extent that he can steal from us. All the things Perino cites would not have happened were it not for Bush and his "terrorism" tactics and the sinkhole that is Iraq. Guess they can't, with all the troops and all the billions of OUR dollars, figure out how to use Iraq's oil to 1. Pay for this war and the reconstruction that should begin in oh, 50 years or 2. send some of it our way to ease prices. I have a thought on that too…CONSERVE! Wanna bet we never hear that word out of his mouth? Nope, keep driving behemoths, keep shopping, the Decider will save us.

Hopefully he will rebuke Clinton by saying that Americans should spend their stimulus checks on whatever we want. How can he say "Don't you dare pay down your debt or save it".

I really don't think there's too much Bush can do to make himself more popular, he is the least popular president in the last 70 years, maybe even all of history. His presidency started with a bang and will be going out with a fizzle, if that.

This guy has senioritis, for those of you who know what that means.

I was playing with the CNN Delegate Calculator and played the "what if game".

I sllid the calculator to Hillary winning all the remaining races by a 60/ 40 % margins, and also winning the super delegates by 65 /35 % she would win by a few votes. You and I both know that she isnt going to win by those margins, so why stay on the race?

Please Show that interactive on CNN! America needs to see it !

Thanks

Thats what we need. The Fox giving a helpfull speech to the Chickens. But on a more important note. If Tom Cruise and Scientology says that Hillary is inhabited by a Demon Spirit from a dead alien life form? Does that make them nuts, or her Demon inhabited, or both?

I wonder if this Mr. Bush is going to talk about the uncontrollable sky-rocketing oil prices?? I doubt it since he and Cheney are sleeping with big oil. Supposedly Bush didn't even know the price of a gallon of gasoline. The overwhelming majority of Americans are tired of him and his lies.

George… it's too late. The hoss is out of the barn.

Sensible and effective bills that continue to line the pockets of the oil industry and haliburton. What is he talking about? This is the same guy that keeps asking for a supplemental bill to fund a war that has been going on for six years! How is that one a surprise and two sensible.

Just more of the pot calling the kettle black, politics as usual.

GO OBAMA! You are on tract. Entertain no distraction either from the pastor or republicans.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz

Our economy is where it is right now because of this bufoon. Now he's got a plan to help? What a joke. Worst president in the history of the United States of America. A real disgrace to the American people.

Is it over yet???

The President still thinks this country is moving forward?! Where the hell has he been the last 3 years.

This country has been going backwards for quite some time, and under his watch. That 3 a.m. phone call regarding the sinking economy came a long time ago and was never answered

That speech should take about 10 minutes

Bush's contract ON America is almost up. We just have to hold on until this viper leaves our White House.

To All Republicans:
If you want to help this country, don't vote. You made a huge mistake twice, and we don't want you to make another stupid one.

Don't vote Republicans, you've done enough to hurt this country. If you think you're capable of voting, just look at our gas prices, and stay home on election day.

Oh Dear!

Bush economy = WE ALL PAY.

idiot…enough said

The Borrow and Spend policies of the GOP were finally given a real opportunity to prove they would work and - no surprise to sane people - they don't.

It's going to take a long time to dig ourselves out of the mess we're in and I don't envy whoever wins in the next election. We are so deep in debt to China that it's going to be very painful to extract ourselves from it. Supply side economics is exactly what President Bush #41 said it is: VooDoo Economics. $10 trillion in debt for the coming generation(s)

They are not going to thank us for being so gullible as to believe this fool and his gang of corporate thieves.

To Jeff & Jetty,

What in the world does this article have to do with NObama?

All the NObama supporters blog, blog, blog under any headline or topic simply to see the "President wannabes" name in print.

Know, follow and stick to the issues…

Everything is not about NObama!!!

Counting the days!!!!!!!! I feel so sorry for Barbara Bush, how can such a fine lady raise such an imbecile?

Congress will not help him as long as he does not help Congress- period

This country is suffering and Bush is solely responsible. We entrusted him with our country in spite of the way he was elected, or perhaps stole the election, and look what he has done.

I think anyone who voted for him owes the country an apology, and should just vote for differently this year to make amends.

Bush and anyone who voted for him is guilty. Our country is suffering. The money that we are spending in Iraq is money that our children will never benefit from–Bush's administration was a disaster.

Our country is NOT better off today.

Blame Bush blame Bush blame Bush…..

That's all we have heard for 7 years. Well it is funny then how our economy went into the tank starting in January 07 when the Democrats took over both houses. They were more concerned about indicting Bush & Cheney for nothing then they were about writing bills to help us and the economy.

And we want to give these people the keys to the Oval Office?

what will boy blunder possibly tell me??????? i would still like to have a beer with dubya but i don't want him to tell me anything.

The only person to make Bushs 8 yrs look good, is Obama president for 1 yr,
I would like to keep the American flag flying over the whitehouse!

country first–party second—no obama.

What can he actually tell us when the next pink slip is comming, you're be evicted. No jobs, no homes, can't fill your car up what, what ,what can he tell us except his pockets is full with the oil money both he and Chaney.

I am sure his dancing did the good people of New Orleans a world good since they still do no have a home to go to and Fema is putting them out of the trailers good job Mr. President.

President Bush, we, the American citizens are hurting. Please help US!

America wake up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Peter Paul Vs. Clintons, $800,000 columbian deal, NAFTA……. we cannot backslide and a vote for the Clintons would be just that. We need enlightenment, progression not the same old, same old. COME ON AMERICA!!!

Just like Bush, to expect congress to do all the work, instead of showing leadership…..But wait. Maybe that is a GOOD thing, since he and his incompetent sycophants have all but destroyed everything they have authority over. WORST president and goon squad in American history! The Peter Principle run amok best describes our current situation at home and in the world.

Thanks, Uncle Sam! It's about time someone said it. No one takes people like Ron seriously. If you can't have a disagreement/debate robustly or honestly or intelligentlyor substantively, IT'S YOU who can do the world a favor and stay home November 4.

Question for Republicans:

Was this man worth your vote?

People were laughing at the Dems counting chads in Florida, but if I had known we'd be paying $4.00 a gallon for gas, I'd go back and count chads as well.

I'm ashamed that he has been in office so long. When will we learn? The Republicans NEVER have a plan, so they have to attack their opponents and scare Americans. When will we learn?

I'm concerned about where this country is going and every time I have to look at that idiot Bush, his no substance wife, and those stupid girls, my heart aches.

Wake up America, this is our country, take it back.

January 20, 2009 - I can't wait.

This is funny. He is going to speak to Americans again because we are not in a recession, but a slow down. Yet, his buddies at the FED save Bears Stern, and he throw over 500,000 families out into the cold because they brought this on themselves. Give me a break, Hooverville is alive and well with Bush. This guy lives in denial about everything. I think he lives in Alice in Wonderland.

Oh JJ, their was nothing substanitive about the debates in 2000, and 2004. That is why we're in the mess we're in. If you and Uncle Sam insist on voting for McSame, do us a favor, suit up and go fight his war.

Come back and let us know if that works for ya. We'll be paying $6.00 a gallon for gas before you hit Iraqi soil.

You smucks.

"Blame Bush blame Bush blame Bush…." Yep! Bush hero Harry Truman had a sign that said "the buck stops here."

The Democrats have resisted indicting Bush/Cheney for high crimes an treason.

The sensible bills written by Democrats die in the Senate where they don't have the 60 votes needed to end a GOP filibuster or over come the veto pen Bush only used after 2006.

The GOP brags about being the party of "personal responsibility" but will be defined as the party of "mistakes were made" or "I don't recall."
The GOP is leaving a huge mess: 34 GOP seats up for grabs as the rats abandon what they think is a sinking ship. Not as much fun knowing you will be in the minority and less able to line your pockets.

If people want w/ gas prices, the President can implement John McCain's suggestion to eliminate the federaI gas tax. That alone will cut avg. of 50 cents /gallon, and it's something Congress can do immediately. (I don't think Hillary and Obama's suggestion to tax oil companies even more will cause the price per gallon to go down).

He needs to just go to Crawford and vacation for the rest of his term. He has done enough damage already, especially to the economy.

George Bush a Disney character without Fur. A cartoon! He is going to talk about the economy ? Is this a joke. W you are the worst president Ever!

Jobs Jobs Jobs , universal heathcare Go Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!08

what does George knows about economy? he knows how to ruin it!!!

The best news for America from Bush this morning would be two words:

I resign.

I just don't think the Rose garden is the place for Bush to talk about the economy. Does he think people will interpret his words about the economy as inspirational or hopeful. I know he's going to make some comment about his no good, not thoroughly thought -out stimulus package

Does this mean he is finally willing to admit we are in a Recession?

The real thing……not just "Hard Times'?

Hillary 08

I really love ready all the comments by the various factions out there. You one telling republicans not to vote an another that says Bush expects congress to do all the work. Who are you kidding. Expecting congress to do all the work is like using waterlogged wood to build a fire. Ain't gonna happen.

As far as no voting well I intend to vote and it won't be fo HilObama as probably neither one will make it to the convention with enough votes unless that primadona John Dean steps in an annoints one of them.

I hope that the Democratic convention is in such upheaval that they will pick a compromise candidate, that individuals from both parties would be comfortable with.

A little "talk" should really help our "recession" ….. oop's, make that a "slowdown", not a recession.

The wolf is knocking at the door, and we are answering with "doublespeak".

I am watching this stupid man on tv right now and of course he blames everyone but himself. Criminal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No one can take people like JJ and that moron uncle sam seriously.They should be in orange jumpsuits along with the rest of the treasonous scum.

Andy to paraphrase a former President Bush the economy for the first four years of any presidency is more a reflection on the previous administration.. " the same goes for the Congress the disaster we are in is NOT because we elected Democrats a year or so ago it is because for the previous years we ahd a "rubber stamp" congress that simply agreed to everything the resident wanted. Our failures in Iraq, Afganistan and now our economy are ZMOSAT definately the fault of the "rubber stampers" not the current Congress. As a final note you must remember that while the Dems have a slight majority they cannot override a veto so the idiot in charge STILL controls the direction fo this Congress.

That said I must now go on to agree with Uncle Sam, while I have disagreed with MANY of the current residents policies there have been a few I HAVE agreed with and am more than willing to listen to him but based on past comments I believe he is going to say things alike Congress should vote to keep the tax cuts for the wealthy permananet, that we should cut capital gains taxes and other, in my opinion, misguided ideas like that. What he should say is we should start charging Iraq a weekly maintenance and training fee… but lets see.

And just because I cannot let you get away with a "misspeaking" like and I quote " They were more concerned about indicting Bush & Cheney for nothing then they were about writing bills to help us and the economy. " I would add if they had really wanted to push impeachment charges against Bush and Cheney they could ahve but they decided to take the higher road and not do that but to look at specific areas where they could try to fix some of the problems caused by b&c without destroying the entire country like the republicans did with Bill Clinton.

re: Andy April 29th, 2008 9:58 am ET

Wow, that must be some strong kool-aid. Either that, or you're an idiot for thinking the past 7 years of Republicans in Congress AND the WH had nothing to do with our current economic woes, but rather the past year with Dems in Congress with a 51% majority.

Clueless Doofus.

I hope the next Prez will hold this criminal and his cronies all responsible for high crimes!!!!

wonder if he knows that gas is about to hit $4…..talk about out of touch…

Someone should check congress for a pulse.

Polticians are the scum of society. All of them.

Wall Street and CNBC said the John McCain and Hillary Clinton's no tax on the gas pump is a stupid and no-brainer plan. Because this 'no tax' plan changes the gas supply and demand equation, it only makes the oil crisis worse and worse.

We are all dumber for listening to this man~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am so disheartened by the apparently blind eyes of so many in this country. Or is it just plain old ignorance? Bush's statements are all about blaming Congress …it's not his fault! He's the president for goodness sakes … he campaigned on bringing people together and getting things done as never before. 8 years have shown his ability to divide and conquer … including our economy. We're not in this condition all of a sudden people!!! You can't give billions of dollars away to the effort in Iraq and cut jobs sending them overseas for 7 years and expect this country to flourish and thrive. A wise 90 year old told me when Bush was elected she didn't know if our country would survive him. She was very astute.

I'm listening to Bush now and he's talking about technology of the future. What are we going to do about gas prices now?

Bush is an idiot. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Is the man.

It is never too late for Bush to do something short term about the economy if he gets good advice. Anyway, I forgive the president because he did not understand economics in school or the current economy. I wonder what grade he gets in school for economics. I am guessing a low C.

There's only one thing I want to hear this clown say:

"Dick Cheney and I resign. Effective immediately."

HELP YOURSELVES.

Some talk has come up concerning our country building more oil refineries. Why should our government build them when the oil companies are making record breaking $40 - $45 billion in profit!! Make them re-invest their own profits!
Now, a better idea.
Instead of more refineries, develop better and less expensive to the consumer, solar and wind energy alternatives!!
We need more "normal, everyday people" in power, not millionaires who don't fill their own tanks with fuel, buy their own groceries, etc. because they have soooo much of their own money, they don't have to! I'm sick to death of having to choose between food and gas.

The best thing he could do for our nation is to resign along with Cheney of course.

the President did just say in his news conference that he'd be open to the moratorium on federal gas tax for the immediate future. Why would any American say "no, we wouldnt want Washington to have to go without their 50 cents out of every gallon"?

Uncle Sam, your a tard.

What a joke Bush- He blames Congress and everyone else for the lousy mess he put us in. Talk about lack of leadership! This guy has nothing to say about how he's going to help America with the economy and gas prices. Give me a break- a $600.00 check is only going to help me pay for the high gas and food prices. He is a disgrace to America.

Way to go Martha, you stood up to an idiot and won. Get tough reporters, he's hurting America.

Don't let him play the exclusive game on you, so what, he gave you an exclusive. You are still doing the people's business by asking him the tough questions. He's a moron.

Way to go gal, you rock.

Martha, on America's side.

THROW THE BOOK AT HIM AND HIS CRONNIES. HE'S AN IDIOT, AND HAS DONE IRREPARABLE HARM TO THIS COUNTRY. WE NEED SMART PEOPLE IN THE WHITE HOUSE. THE BUSH EXPERIMENT DID NOT WORK. HE'S AN IDIOT. LET'S TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK.

Sigh….America. Don't be stupid 3 times in a row and nominate or put the wrong person in office.

HILLARY 08

Sounds like he's getting ready to authorize congress–to throw more money @ the countries social and economic problems.

Using money that we don't have–to bolster an economy that isn't growing–only increases everyone's risk. Some things need to run their course.

A Rose Garden talk about the Economy. Isn't that special???

Too bad Bush won't be giving this speech in front of a gas pump, or a foreclosure sign, or a grocery store, or a food bank line, or on the sidewalk along the empty and abandoned storefronts all across this nation.

What nerve. How out of touch can one person possibly be??

President Bush, until you actually say the word "recession" I can not put credibliltiy into anything you say about the economy. Why not be a man and live up to your actions and decisions which have helped to put our economy in this mess? The fact that you won't is most disappointing to me as a citizen of the US.

Our pitiful 110th liberal Congress has been holding the American purse strings for two years now.. The very same time the economy began to tank. What are they doing for us??

And please tell me, how is spending more of my tax dollars on pie in the sky green research going to help me fill my gas tank tomorrow CNN??

Watched some of this, had to turn it off, couldn't listen to such angry nonsense. If he had a point, it wasn't heard because of his incessant haranguing at the press and congress. No point taken.

Give me a break Mr. President.

Yada, yada, yada. Blah, blah, blah.

This economy is broken since we have exported the good jobs. To make it worse, there are no more USA companies–they are global with no interest in the USA, save there bottom line. Bush and Congress cannot fix this without some seroious changes. They do not have the anatomy to do this.

From the USA industry to the USA citizen…SCREW YOU.

Bush has no clue about anything. worst president ever!

This guy has been "out of touch" his entire life.

What has the Harry and Nancy show accomplished over the last two years anyways? Ethical reforms?? Pleeeeease….

And how can anyone have lower approval numbers than Bush? The 110th Congress is a joke! A bad joke on America!!

In the landmark civil fraud case against Bill Clinton in Los Angeles, where the former President is charged with defrauding a Hollywood dot com millionaire to help Hillary Clinton obtain more than $1.2 million from him for her 2000 Senate campaign, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Aurelio Munoz ruled on Friday, April 25 that Hillary Clinton would not be required to testify in a sworn deposition as a material witness in the case until AFTER the November election!

Why wont CNN be fair… hillary clintons pastor just was charged with child molestion for touching a 7 year old girl her pastor name is Rev. William Procanick …. and why isnt cnn reporting the peter paul vs.. clinton case…. 17 million dollar law suit that they have aginst them…. in cally…..

HILLARY WILL GO IN AND START TO CLEAN UP BUSH'S MESS!!!!!!!!

SHE HAS SOLUTIONS TODAY!!!!!!!!

RISE HILLARY RISE!!!!!!!!

2 years with a democrat led congress and we have record gas prices and are on our way into a recession or worse.

Don't say we didn't warn you!!

It seems every time he opens his mouth it makes me want to shake him so that he wakes up from whatever dream world he is experiencing.

He can't even be consistent in his claims for the duration of a single press conference. Additional oil in the supply coming from drilling in ANWAR will cause gas prices to drop but additional oil in the supply from suspending strategic reserve purchases won't? It would be comical if it weren't so sad and there weren't millions of people swallowing it wholesale.

this is the same guy ,who has destroyed our economy.he knows nothing about the problems of average americans.he makes me sick.

I guess people truely don't know that the president is just a puppet. Look who controls the houses. They could over throw him at any time they only want themselves to look good. Wait until we get a Democrat President. We really will be hurting.

Clintons=G.Bush The Third

WHo the least educated leader of the free world……

The US President Bush. He really thinks everyones happy…..

lol xtina - 50 cents/gallon?? The federal gas tax is nowhere near that. Try 20 cents/gallon. Also try avoiding the potholes in the roads that start showing up, since that money is used for highway maintenance. In the end it will cost you more for car repairs from bad roads than it would in gas tax you save.

Can you believe this guy , after destroying the economy. Now he pretends to care. But in reality he can afford the gas prices , because we pay for it. We pay for his food and his traveling , and even for is clothes. This is by far the most insincere president ever to breathe air. Its republicans fault that we as normal people have to endure this mess of a government.

Lets see, Bush said BLAH,BLAH, BLAH, UGH, BLAH BLAH BLAH, AND UGH, BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!!! THE ECONOMY IS GOOD FOR ME AND CHENEY AND THE REST OF US OIL MEN!!!!! Its congresses fault, not mine. Well Mr. President its not all of congress, just the idiot republicans.

xtina in chicago,

The Federal Gas Tax is nowhere near 50 cents! Try 18.4 Cents.
Buy 10 Gallons and you save a whopping $1.84. You could buy a box of Rice-a-Roni!!

Reality King you fail to mention that the approval rating of the Republican portion of Congress is even lower that than of the Democratic portion. Without a 60 vote majority the Democrats are
unable to overide a veto by Bush, but you knew that didn't you? Please go ahead and continue to polish this turd and call it a diamond.

It is your fault that the economy is in the Shi_ _ y state it's in now. You need to give up your Oil money and Salary to the people of America to make up for the mess that you've put us in. You really should step down now! Before the new President gets in because I'm sure that you and your Administration will be brought up on Charges and you and them have a lot of charges to be brought up on.

Cinta

IMPEACH!

What now? sheesh! Pres. Bush, why don't you just sit back and relax until your term is up? My goodness, I see you more now in the news than ever! Now, you want to talk about what's really going wrong in this country and try to fix it? OMG this guy is unbelievable, please Bush spare me!!!

"IMPEACH BUSH NOW"

it is hard to believe that they still allow him to speack but what is more hard to believe is that he still has an audience.

IMPEACH! PLEASE SOME ONE IMPEACH THIS FOOL. HE MAKES ME THROUGH UP.

Great place to talk about the Economy since he thinks its all roses.

I guess whenever one sees Bush, uneducated, stupid and idot should come up.

Did you hear him today…" We are fighting people who will strap a bomb to themselves and blow innocent people up" - idiot, didn't you know this before you went into Iraq… oh, I forgot you had never traveled outside of the US before becoming President and you do not like to read….

America, we need someone who is educated and can be level headed when dealing with situations. Barack Obama is that person////

Obama '08 and '12

Get rid of Bush, McCain and Hillary or we will have the same thing we have always had.

Quack, quack, quack…the chatter of a lame (oh how lame) duck.

Thats right Obama is a wannabe

"Listen here economy, I'm the decider…and I decide that you are not allowed to go into a recession."

Problem solved.

"I am George Bush your president. The economy is in the can because mkduud ftrooemda bpos bnmltweaas Bill Clinton klswaqq bccg tyyoo sdde Al Queda mndyiisddf bludtrnbc mmsndy unpatriotic democratic congress mcnrtoopsdg bcyt akpq. If you don't believe me, just look at Foxnews; they know everything. If you still don't believe me, you are unpatriotic, and don't deserve to own a house or have a good American job — we can have a cell reserved just for you down in gitmo. Thank you. And God bless Amer-ca"

As much as you would like to BLAME this man for the economy. Sure, the war in Iraq and a lowering of taxes caused us to borrow money, but Obama, Clinton, or McCain dont' know how to solve it either.

The Congress should stop spending so much money, and the Fed needs to stop giving Congress "invisible" money by stop priting billions to pay off spending deficits. Hard to stop spending money when you promise free health care when our current government setup has no business running SS and medicare right now (not without a revamp of it).

A bunch of you have no idea what you are talking about now other than hate. Please just do some research and figure it out for yourself. Until then, about 90% of the Obama, Clinton, and McCain supporters will just stay ignorant.

I'm with you fantasy land. I'm not sure what reality he is supposed to be king of. The 28% true-believers have been polishing their brown bush nugget so long all of their hands are brown, as well as their noses. The stench permeates America. I think the nonsense we hear from these [R] neo-nuggets can be summed up with one statement: "no brain, no pain".

Get rid of about 10 more [R] senators and 30 more [R] reps, and just watch the approval rating of congress shoot up!

George Bush will use this as just another opportunity to shove you know what up our you know what. There is no quick fix for this mess our country is in and since when did he care, after all we're just in a "slow down". He's a baffoon and so is John McCain.

This coward, deserter, war criminal should be in prison along with his handler- Cheney. He is a moron who cannot put two words together without displaying the intellgence void he lives in. If he is not connected to a teleprompter or reading from a script he cannot function.

Now that he has caused the death of thousands of Americans and Iranians, put our economy in the trash and made his buddies in the oil companies (including papa Cheney) richer, he has the nerve to tell congress what it should do. And this is the man that we are suppost to call Mr. President. Go back to the rock you crawled out from under .

Bush, the imbecile that he is, of course, is "trying" to talking economics now?!!!! It's too little, too late!!! He has spent the last 8 years flying all over the world and has managed to put this country into a recession, which will probably lead us into another Great Depression. He has been far too incompetent to every have been "president"! Good riddance, Bush!

Bush and Economy: No relation at all.
Does he know how to spell Economy-Least of all to deal with it.

Bush is a disgrace to American history. The only thing he has done is perpetuate genocide and lies. All we know is what he wants to know. But hopefully Americans this time around are smarter enough not to be fooled by him or McCain.

\We can do so much better
Yes we Can,

Obama for President

Bush is a disgrace to American history. The only thing he has done is perpetuate genocide and lies. All we know is what he wants us to know. But hopefully Americans this time around are smarter enough not to be fooled by him or McCain.

We can do so much better
Yes we Can,

Bush should jump in the Rose Garden.

Bush telling Congress to fix the economy is like a small child destroying toys with a tantrum, and then telling the parents to fix what was just broken. What a crying shame…

Bush is a failure as a president as so will McCain be if this country makes the HUGE mistake of voting him into office.

Bush's policies are so out of touch as is his counterpart McCain. It's being reported that McCain tried to call Sen. obama out of touch on economic issues. Isn't this up for laughs being that he knows NOTHING on the issue. McCain is absolutely in no position to label anybody as being "insensitive to poor people and out of touch on economic issues," because that tag solely belongs to him.

He is the one who flip-flop on giving tax cuts to the wealthy - first saying he was against it and now is embracing it. Additionally, he admitted he knows nothing about economics and therefore connected himself with the failed Bush policies.

So having said all of this he's trying convince the voters differently. Old man please just go away ! You are not qualified to lead this country in the direction of REAL change that the American people so desperately need.

It's time for REAL change in Washington, it's time for Barack Obama for president !

As much as I would like to see gas prices go down, taking away the federal tax will only create another problem and more expensive than this. That is where we get the money to keep our roads up. Don't worry, if they do this, they will get the money from some place else. The one thing you can count on is that we will pay for it one way or another.

anyone that agrees with the republicans is a turd polisher

Pulllllllllllleeez stop talking GW………………………

Bush wants to drill in the province, why, so he can sell that oil to Britan as he did the Alaskan pipeline? We really benefited from that drilling! Americans probably don't know that the Alaskan pipeline oil is going to China, not USA! But Bushy loves us. I just hope that he can be brought up on war crimes, all of them, and that the world can see that America is back.

If the problems were as singular as Jorge Bush then there would be hope. Reality is that even with out jorge things will not change.

Oil prices are due a lot to devaluation of the US$. Check the euros per barrel and the increase is a lot samller than for US$ per barrel.

Food prices…we are burning our food to power cars at no net energy benefit.

Now we outsource to the French (how bad are things?) military equipment supply. Maybe we should outsource our defense to the Chinese—lot cheaper than doing it ourself.

So as bad as Jorge Bush is, don't expect any real change. Bottom line is the USA has blown it's fortune like a drunken sailor on shore leave.

UNCLE SAM. YOU ARE RIGHT. BUSH JUST TOLD US HOW HARD IT IS TO GET ISSUES PAST CONGRESS. O.B. THINKS HE CAN JUST CHANGE WASHINGTON. HE KEEPS SAYING HE ISNT LIKE WASHINGTON. GIVE ME A BREAK. HE IS JUST LIKE ANY OTHER POLITICIAN IF NOT WORST. WHERE DOES HE THINK HE WOULD BE IF ELECTED.(WASHINGTON) O.B. IS SUCH A BIG JOKE. HRC IS THE ONLY ONE THAN KNOWS HOW TO GET AROUND THE WASHINGTON POLITICS. IF HRC LOOSES WE LOOSE. GO HRC.

It speaks volumes about our current culture that those who plead for civility are insulted as well. We see it not only in our politics, but throughout our society. Nobility of character is no small thing and its effects are far-reaching. If we really desire a societal transformation we must be willing to open our hearts. No president can do that for us.

Bush has a given freedom to oil companies to make as much profit as possible before the end of his presidency. As a result of which the oil companies are making record profits and he is not even willing to investigate this outright crime being committed by these oil companies. He doesn't realize that a major chunk of the tax rebates received by the tax payers will again end up with the already rich oil companies - A Win Win Situation for them.

Bush says to everyone, "I am a fool and am proud of the fact"

There is an ungoing truth about the Republicans and the Democrats.

The Republicans when they are elected and have the majority run the country into excessive debt.

Then the Democrats, especially Bill Clinton era after eight years of serving America, left the White House and the government of American with a surplus of money and a good economy.

Now, G.W. Bush, and the Republicans are leaving the White House and the government of American in a debt of TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS

Thus, once again the Democrats will regain the White House and hopefully in eight years bring the democratic government will bring the economy and reduce the debt created by the Republicans back into a manageable debt or get rid of it once again.

And Hillary R. Clinton will be the best candidate to restore our economy back to its, glory days when it was under the guide of President Bill Clinton

Hillary R. Clinton, P.O.T.U.S. 2009-2016 GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

President Who?
