"President Obama told the Republican lawmakers that "you can't
just
listen to
Rush Limbaugh and get things done.""

Perhaps Rush's wish for America to fail had something to do with
it.
OTOH That seems to have been repub & neocon policy for 8+ years
...


I heard some commentator says that the Bush Admin welcomed the
tanking
economy because it would prevent Obama from implementing some sort
of
national health insurance program. And spending the country into
near-oblivion was one of the tactics of the Reagan administration,
too,
with the Reaganites thinking there would be no funds available for
needed social programs.

I don't know that the Bush comment is accurate, but there have to be
some reasons why his administration screwed up just about
everything.

Did they "screw up"?

Didn't they, and their friends, prosper? Didn't they further their
agenda? Their only "screw up" was to injure our country so badly that
they've been so widely repudiated. For a long time they had the
middle
class brainwashed into believing their propaganda all the while
eradicating and pillaging the nation's wealth.

Follow the money.

Plus during bad economic times military recruitment goes way up.
So the military industrial complex benefits.

That was enlightening.
