   BirishB Let’s not forget that Democrats have controlled congress since 2006. Both parties share in accountability for where we are today. It wasn’t just Bush and the Repubs who got us into Iraq, nor was it just the election of Bush that produced the current economic collapse. Conversely, Obama will enjoy a strong Democratic majority in congress and a supportive media. One could easily conclude from statements in his acceptance speech that Obama is already trying to dramatically lower expectations. If things don’t improve fairly quickly, how long can Obama and the Democrats blame Bush’s policies before it gets stale? I pray Obama is truly as intelligent as his supporters believe him to be and that he will make decisions that are best for America.
