You are right on. For the past (almost) eight years, Conservatives have been blaming Clinton for every economical, financial, national security, etc., problem our nation has seen during the Bush regime. Today, Mr. Rush Limbaugh–you know that fuzzy little Goddddd's gift to humanity–blamed the November jobs loss, and in fact the Bush recession, on…..yes, you guessed it, Barack Obama's election.

Here's another do-over we (or at least the rational amongst us) could dream of: the 2000 election. Only 47 more days of this complete moron. Today's great news: 533,000 jobs lost in November, but I am sure this was because of decisions made before Bush became President – please just go away and fast!

kritt, you might want to wait until he actually isn't President anymore before making declarations about a lack of “good deeds.”

The do-over will only take effect when we're all long dead and gone- because no one that's living today will ever forget what really took place.

Notice that rather than reworking the legacy through good deeds like Carter, Clinton and even Daddy Bush, 43 chooses to use a PR team create his own reality and hope that it sticks with historians. He may realize now that he's made serious mistakes, but is taking the easy way out as he has all of his life.

I saw an interview with Rove where when asked about what went wrong, Turdblossom replied “Lets talk about what went right”- and went into the schpiel about how lucky Iraq is that we liberated them. Instead of the “Mission Accomplished” banner – Bush should stand under one that says “Freed 50 million”- and let historians figure it out.
