Bush is a Republican. Congress is mostly Democrats. Or are both parties messing up right now?

Seeing how Congress is doing nothing I will go with them.

Congress is not "mostly Democrats". It will take another election to get the 2/3 majority needed to accomplish things in spite of Republicans, and by then Bush will be gone anyway.

Bush is doing plenty. The problem with him becomes a question of whether what he is doing is in our best interests.. Congress is doing nothing. I mean name one meaningful thing that this Congress has accomplished. Ultimately I think the answer would be both. I personally don't see either branch working towards the best interests of the nation as a whole.

Congress is 51 % Democratic not mostly. Not enough to vote down a veto from our Republican president. Neither party is doing too much to impress me.

Well, since I believe President Bush is been doing an outstanding job, I'd have to say Congress could do better.

Both parties cannot seem to get out of their own way.....this election is truly coming down to the lesser of two evils, and it is becoming more and more difficult to tell who that is. I am not a Bush fan, but think Congress has been self-serving also.

Unemployment January 2007 (Democrats take over Congress) = 4.6%. Unemployment November 2007 (0bama elected) = 6.7% Unemployment January 2009 (0bama takes workplace) = 7.6% (now with a great larger Democrat majority in Congress). Unemployment September 2010 = 9.6% (after 0bama informed us the stimulus could shop it under 8%).

Bush is the Decider. He decided to leave Afghanistan when the job wasn't done and go to Iraq. He decided to leave the Southern Border wide open and allow millions of immigrants to take American jobs. He decided to allow Cheney and Energy Barons to decide our energy policies. He decided to allow torture of prisoners. He decided to hold prisoners forever with no charges, no representation. He decided to muck things up in Iraq. He decided to loot our treasury with his idea of Iraqi Reconstruction. He decided to hire and rehire the same corrupt corporations to handle this reconstruction. He decided to ignore the desperate people after Katrina. He decided to continue the Iraq War even after a clear mandate from the people.
He decided, and continues to decide, the guy who leaves nothing "off the table," calls nuclear weapons "Divine," and now wants to hand $20 billion in arms to Saudi Arabia, the Homeland of 15 of the l9 terrorists that caused 9/11.
The Bush Rubber Stampers in the Republican Congress are still backing up their boy. This renders the Democrats useless, since they can't get the 60 votes needed to pass anything making sense.
Who is the worst of the worst? The Decider, of course!

Bush is running the executive branch. Congress is running the Spanish Inquisition.

They both suck. How does that saying go...oh yeah. Republicans are the party of bad ideas; Democrats are the party of no ideas. Well they are both living up to that right now.
