The Bushes made me do it!

Does anyone remember the Flip Wilson show? "The devil made me do it!" Well, we're living it now. I believe that the corrupt business officials involved in the financial crisis need to be accountable. But to blame the Bush administration because one could not have the common sense to not make a purchase is completely asinine. Low income/middle income Americans are purchasing items (include myself) that strain our already taxed budgets but it's the fault of someone else because we could not be financially responsible. I have seen to many lower income individuals with big screen televisions, awesome entertainment systems and no more than five (5) books about the home and three (3) of the five (5) were Bibles. If we want the government to cut irresponsible spending (which truly needs to happen), what about the average American? What's good for the gander is good for the goose!
