Blame the Democrats in Congress

Although I haven't been thrilled with all of Mr. Bush's decisions in the last eight years, we all need to remember that we have a Democrat-controlled Congress. Much of what has happened can be blamed on the Democrat-controlled Congress. As Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama and the rest of the Democrats blame Bush and say that John McCain will be a continuation of the Bush administration, remember the Bush administration has been battling a Democrat-controlled Congress.

Further, the Democrats have regularly worked with McCain over the years and called it bipartisan politics, but now they want to sell him as Bush III.

McCain's own party has criticized him for reaching across the aisle to the Democrats and not sticking to the party line at all times. So as you listen to the Democrats complain, when they talk about the economy, remember, the Democrats have been in control.
