The Dumbest Bumper Sticker Ever...

I was walking through a parking lot, when I noticed a bumper sticker on a truck that read:

When Bush Entered Office, Gas Was $1.46

Wow... I am so impressed by how ignorant we are and we want to blame everything that goes wrong on the president, especially the one that's being replaced in a few months.

Now, do I think Bush is blameless? No, our system is way too screwed. Really, our whole government is to blame. But remember, the government is run by people... People like us... People who are apt to stupidity...

But blaming Bush for gas... Stupid. It's because of (risks sounding like a prick Republican) 9/11. Because of that, we had to take a guess who was responsible. Maybe some presumptuous decisions were made, but I seriously can't blame anyone for making them. Our nation was attacked, we had to take action. Even though some bad decisions were made, even though too many people were killed, we had to do the responsible thing.

So, a president had to make a decision and we all pay the consequences. It's happened before, and it's happening now.

So, we pay extra at the gas pump. It could be worse...
