Withstanding the Worst

So, Bush and those evil Republicans are blamed for being in charge when the worst financial crisis since 1930 hits, from being in charge when the worst hurricanes since 1900 hit, from being in charge when the worst attack on us since 1940 hits... and they get blamed for it. Here is another take- they should be praised, because we've been hit with a lot of worsts, and still the economy is strong.

Now, these things have taken a toll, and Bush and the Republicans in Congress did some things wrong, but think about it- what might have happened if Obama had been in charge these last 7 years? How would he have responded to the series of crisis? By making government bigger, more active, more intrusive, more bloated, more inefficient, etc- all while making our country, weaker, poorer, and worse off.

Instead of thinking 'Bush was in charge for the worst financial crisis since 1930'- think 'Bush was in charge during the worst financial crisis since 1930, and it really wasn't that bad.'
