Here's some information along these lines. It was sent to me as a
group mailing and I would like some honest, straight forward comments.

Subject: DO YOU REMEMBER JANUARY 3, 2007?
ALL AMERICANS SHOULD READ THIS AND UNDERSTAND HOW WE GOT TO WHERE WE
ARE NOW.....
REMEMBER JANUARY 3, 2007
This tell us why many think Bush was so bad at the end of his term.
Don't just skim over this, it's not very long, read it slowly and let
it sink in. If in doubt, check it out!!!
The day the democrats took over was not January 22nd 2009, it was
actually January 3rd 2007 the day the Democrats took over the House of
Representatives and the Senate, at the very start of the 110th
Congress. The Democrat Party controlled a majority in both chambers
for the first time since the end of the 103rd Congress in 1995.
For those who are listening to the liberals propagating the fallacy
that everything is "Bush's Fault" think about this: January 3rd, 2007
was the day the Democrats took over the Senate and the Congress. At
that time: The DOW Jones closed at 12,621.77 - The GDP for the
previous quarter was 3.5% - The Unemployment rate was 4.6% - George
Bush's Economic policies SET A RECORD of 52 CONSECUTIVE MONTHS of JOB
GROWTH
Remember the day: January 3rd, 2007 was the day that Barney Frank took
over the House Financial Services Committee and Chris Dodd took over
the Senate Banking Committee. The economic meltdown that happened 15
months later was in what part of the economy? The BANKING AND
FINANCIAL SERVICES!
Unemployment: They added to this CRISIS by (among MANY other things)
dumping 5-6 TRILLION Dollars of toxic loans on the economy from YOUR
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac FIASCOES! Starting in 2001, Bush asked
Congress 17 TIMES to stop Fannie & Freddie, because it was financially
risky for the US economy.
And who took the THIRD highest pay-off from Fannie Mae AND Freddie
Mac? OBAMA!!
And who fought against reform of Fannie and Freddie? OBAMA and the
Democrat Congress
So when someone tries to blame Bush. REMEMBER JANUARY 3rd, 2007....
THE DAY THE DEMOCRATS TOOK OVER!"
Budgets do not come from the White House. They come from Congress and
the party that controlled Congress since January 2007 is the Democrat
Party. Furthermore, the Democrats controlled the budget process for
2008 & 2009 as well as 2010 & 2011. In that first year, they had to
contend with George Bush, which caused them to compromise on spending,
when Bush somewhat belatedly got tough on spending increases.
For 2009 though, Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid bypassed George Bush
entirely, passing continuing resolutions to keep government running
until Barack Obama could take office. At that time, they passed a
massive omnibus spending bill to complete the 2009 budgets. And where
was Barack Obama during this time? He was a member of that very
Congress that passed all of these massive spending bills, and he
signed the omnibus bill as President to complete 2009. If the
Democrats inherited any deficit, it was the 2007 deficit, the last of
the Republican budgets. That deficit was the lowest in five years, and
the fourth straight decline in deficit spending.
After that, Democrats in Congress took control of spending, and that
includes Barack Obama, who voted for the budgets. If Obama inherited
anything, he inherited it from himself. In a nutshell, what Obama is
saying is I inherited a deficit that I voted for and then I voted to
expand that deficit four-fold since January 20th. There is no way this
will be widely publicized, unless each of us sends it on!
