Why congress as a whole? GOP has majority first 6 years of Bush/Cheney.

Bush/Cheney must be so proud.

[vsg4]

With 11 trillion internal debt(of which China owns 2 trillion in US treasury notes), 6 trillion trade deficit and never ending Iraq war, economy in doll drums, tax revenues falling, 1 trillion is only tip of the iceberg.

In contrast big 4 oil as well as defense suppliers raked 600 billions each group in profits. Gone are the days of 145 billions budget surplus and $15 per barrel crude oil when Bush came in. Where did money go , 1 trillion in tax cuts to rich and 2 trillions to you know who. Very great Bush legacy, we will remember it and it''s damages next decades to come if not life times.

The end of an empire brought to you but the family value party of god the GOP = Greed Over Principle.

Never again they need to remain in the wilderness for an eternity.
