What did we get?

"The national debt increased $4.9 trillion during the eight-year presidency of George W. Bush."

What did we get there?

Not that I'm defending any increase to the national debt, but Bush fought two wars (that Democrats voted for), the economy was much better, and it was over 8 years, vs 3.

Your turn.

What did we get in 3 years for $5 trillion?

It would be nice if the community organizer wouldn't take credit for Bush's accomplishments.

It's like a relief pitcher, coming in bottom of the inning with two outs, taking credit for winning the game.

Republicans pin all of Bush's failures on him too though.

Good analogy. But if he comes in with the bases are loaded when he gives up the homerun to the first batter. Those first 3 runs go to the pitcher that left the game.
