Vick, Bush is "the boy"... pushed into power by a political family that has been in power somewhere in the US for most of the last 25 years.

Blaming him for what is wrong? Well, taking the current low dollar thing as an example, I would say that YES, his EXACT policies have lead to the dollar's free fall against other currencies. It is a clear reflection of policies of high debt, low taxes, and low interest rates. The blame comes and sits directly on his doorstep on this one.

Bush makes choices, and leads the country down certain paths. When the problems appear as a result of those choices, well, yes, they are his problem.

Vick, as for money, let's just say that I didn't have a rich daddy to BUY me a bunch of companies so that I could fail but still syphon off a ton of money before they failed. I wasn't in the position to buy a ML baseball team, get the public to pay for a stadium, and then sell my interest in the team at a huge profit. I didn't start out 90% of the way down the track to wealth, so everything I get I EARNED. No gimmies.

He can tie his own shoes. I wouldn't want to appear to be bowing down to the boy king.
