Do Americans feel guilty for voting for Bush now that there is a world recession

We're feeling it in England too. Most of our foreign investment goes to and comes from the United States. Our economy is messed up thanks to bad leadership decisions made by the Republican Party. So could you guys over the pond possibly do us Brits a favour and stop voting for them?

Thanks.

I actually blame congress more than Bush...if Iraq turns out alright I won't view his presidency as a complete failure.UnknownSniper65

We're capitalist here. The Gov doesnt control the economy. Your just looking for a scapegoat for your problems.

Taking out a dictator is bad? Lets not get into Iraq, this is about the world economy. Iraq has nothing to do with it.

But there where WMDs...

do foriegners feel stupid for incorrectly blaming the pres of the us for their problems?

do they feel sad that their econ is owned by america's? (if you believe its america's fault)

do they feel accepted by their peers for taking the common route and blaming america for their problems?

seriously anwser those and foriegners (non-americans) who dont feel that way dont take offense

The American recession has had repercussions worldwide, and the Government has quite a bit of influence over the economy.

We're feeling it in England too. Most of our foreign investment goes to and comes from the United States. Our economy is messed up thanks to bad leadership decisions made by the Republican Party. So could you guys over the pond possibly do us Brits a favour and stop voting for them?

No it didnt. Where do you think all the money for guns, tanks, ships, choppers, and aircrafts go to? We dont get everything form China you know.

Bush isn't doing as bad of a job as you guys like to think he is. You just want a scapegoat.

By your logic, Hoover caused the Great Depression.

The President does not (and should not) control the economy, anyway.

actually we technically arent capitalist. we have elements of capitalism in our economy but patents, government regulation, wealth redistrubution, protectionism take away the most crucial parts of real capitalism.

As much as I don't like Bush, people really need to stop blaming him for every single bad thing that happens to the economy. The president doesn't have that much power.GabuEx

I lulz at the problems now in the US, Looking tough while going poor.Whicker89

Poor? Its a little recession where going through. Its very natural and happens most often near election time. Trust me, America isnt going poor. Hell, this month my dad bought 300,000 dollars worth of cars already adding to the 200,000 we have right now.

His actions affect it, though.

You went around the question. Was the economy as a whole hurt in any significant way?

He did. I doesnt matter if you dont believe me. I know its true. Theres nothing to prove on a internet OT forum. Its just sad that you would make fun of me for no reason than to try and prove that your right.

PLEASE never use the word "lulz" again.

It isn't physically possible to "lulz" seeing as "lulz" is a noun and isn't in any way related to "lol".

It's created a billion dollar private security market. O_O Not to mention the fear is created back home... people started buying this andthat in preperation for war and terrorist attacks (gas masks, etc), not to mention all the TV shows and movies based on or around terrorism/Islamic extremeists. DigitalExile

In the past when there has been a war the economy rebounded from recessions/depressions. This is not the case here.

No; for using "lulz" as a verb WHEN IT'S A NOUN.

The world GDP has been in negative growth for the past two years? Did I miss something?

If this has happened, how exactly is this Bush's fault?

What does creating and indexing slang have to do with a bookclub?

What the ****?

You live in England; you guys get pissed when we do something right (who saved your ***es in WW1 and WW2, again?), and now you're pissed that the business cycle is down (which isn't even the government's fault).

You're pathetic. Just shut the hell up and grow some balls, you piece of crap. What have YOU done for the world, other than create us?

Hey, wait a minute! You didn't create us, we had to whoop your asses first, and then create ourselves! And I'm also guessing you (yourself) haven't done **** for the world (you just started a blatant anti-America topic on a gaming website, ffs), so you don't even get that merit.

So here's my question: Do you feel guilty for creating such a waste-of-internet topic, while the intelligent world is doing their best to get the economy moving again?

No? I didn't think so. This thread obviously proves you aren't part of the "intelligent world", so I wouldn't expect you to comprehend what the word "guilt" even means.

Goodbye.

EDIT: I'm in a patriotic mood.
