"Michigan is hardly the only state in a recession. Tell that to people in Ohio and Pennsyvania. Bush's policies favor big corporations who's CEO's get multi-million dollar salaries then complain the workers need to take 50% paycuts to stay competitive. Bush sent troops with much needed aid to help Georgia after Russia pulled out faster then he sent aid to Katrina! His policies have created a multi-trillion dollar national debt that is making our dollar worthless which is helping the specualtors push the proce of oil to records highs. But that's ok cuz the oil companies are getting rich off our sweat......."

You sound like a liberal cliche machine, seriously.

Why would only a few states be affected by a recession and not others? Think about it, if the recession in Michigan was only because of Bush, then why isn't the whole country affected?

I'm sorry, American corporations are getting SCREWED, America has one of the highest corporate tax rates in the western world. There is an estimated 10 trillion dollars overseas because of our stupid tax system. Want to see that money come back? Then drop the income tax system in favor of a retail tax.

Bush sent the worthless FEMA only after Nagin failed miserably. The mayor of New Orleans is the first line of defense in a disaster, not the President. The order is: city, county, state, THEN federal. City county and state failed miserably and that's Bush's fault? Bullshit.

Our dollar sucks because government spending is out of control (a real criticism of Bush), we import over 75% of our oil (which contributes to almost all of our trade imbalance), and our tax system is retarded.

Your statements on speculators and oil companies show that you don't even have a basic understanding of either.

Oil is not expensive because the dollar is low, that's the dumbest shit I've ever heard, it's a supply and demand issue. Do you really think America controls the price of oil? In case you haven't heard, EVERYBODY is paying a lot for gasoline these days, not just the US. American oil companies control about 3% of the oil industry, they couldn't bring down the price of oil if they wanted.
