Here’s what George W. Bush left for Barack Obama:
– A AAA credit rating
– Gas for $1.61 a gallon
– 5.4% unemployment
– a national debt of $8 trillion, accumulated since 1776, and that was called “devastating”
Two and a half years later, here’s how Barack Obama squandered that inheritance:
– Our credit rating is downgraded to AA
– Gas prices have doubled
– Unemployment is at 9.1%
– And our debt “Ceiling” is now $17 Trillion.
I don’t know about you, but this is far from what I “hoped” for.
