assign blame where is blame is due

It's time to stop Republican’s attempt to rewrite history and blame the deficit on Obama and the Democrats.  Posting the Bush TARP speech video here is to remind voters that the economy and the debt is the fault of Bush and the Republicans. The idea is to assign blame where blame is due. 

When Clinton was president we had a surplus. We were paying down the national debt. Then the Republicans seized power and the surplus quickly became a deficit. They cut taxes for the rich and started two expensive wars. The deregulated the financial markets and allowed the big banks to steal to the point of global economic collapse.

This video of Bush with his hat in his hand begging America to pony up almost a trillion dollars reminds us what really happened.
