Clinton’s final 6 years he had a GOP Congress. Bush’s final 2 years he had a liberal Democrat Congress. Look at when Clinton’s economy got on track, and when Bush’s went off track.[/QUOTE] Then how is the economy Obama’s fault?
Clinton is from Arkansas. You can all send me your thanks now. I take cash or credit. 
[QUOTE=MasterKiller;1130457]Then how is the economy Obama’s fault?[/QUOTE]
It’s not fully his fault. But the fact that it’s gotten worse his first two years is his fault. And he had a Democrat-controlled House and Senate for his first two years. And the Senate was filibuster-proof for over a year as well. And the laws he signed only made it worse, and drove up the deficit at the same time.
Democrat policies caused the 2007-2008 recession. Clinton’s deregulation created the housing bubble, and Democrats led by Barney Frank and Chris Dodd refused to open Fannie and Freddy’s books while swearing they were doing just fine. Bush and the GOP tried to institute MORE regulation in 2004 and were stopped by Congressional Democrats (who even resorted to using the race card to fight off new regulations).

Clinton’s success = 100% attributable to Regan’s legacy and then a Repub congress.
Bush’s failures = 100% attributable to Clinton’s legacy and a Democratic congress, even though Republicans were in the majority for the first 1/2 of his term.
Obama’s failures = 98% his, plus 2% goes to congress right up until Republicans gained more seats, then it’s 100% Obama after that.

I’m laughing at you once again putting words in my mouth. I never gave Reagan credit for Clinton’s policies. Never. Matter of fact, GHW Bush went away from some of them so they were not fully in effect by the time Clinton was President.
But he did change his economic policies after the 1994 elections. You do know what the term “triangulation” is, right?

I didn’t say that as you put it.
I said the housing bubble was caused by Democrat policies and Clinton’s deregulation. That is true. But Bush did spend too much, and I’ve blamed him for that in the past. And you know that. And that is his fault. FYI, I’m also against campaign finance reform law(s) he signed into law as well. You won’t see me say Bush was perfect, but the community organizer does make him look like an economic genuis.
And again, Bush was not a failure. 5% unemployment when you come into office facing a possible recession, then have 9/11 happen, is pretty good leadership if you ask me.

His failures are 100% his. Not ONE policy that he enacted those first two years was a success. Not one. Of course if I’m wrong, feel free to correct me.
As to the economy now, you can’t blame the GOP. Not one of their bills that passed the House was signed into law as they passed it. They were either vetoed by the community organizer, didn’t make it through the Senate, or were changed before being passing Congress and signed into law. So you can’t blame the Party that has one chamber of Congress when the other has the White House and the other chamber of Congress. If we get a Republican President and GOP control of both chambers of Congress and they make things worse, I’ll call them on it. I won’t sit here and make excuses for them for 2.5 years+.

Can we try and stay on topic?

Put my full quote up.
What does this have to do with Michelle Bachman’s revisionist history of how slavery brought blacks and whites together in a culture of mutual respect?
