History will show Bush wasn't that bad

It's hard to believe that Russell Crom in his recent letter is naive enough to believe that the George W. Bush administration is entirely responsible for the financial crisis we now face.

I'm sure his infamous predecessor, Congress, and a multitude of greedy chief executives of various government agencies and private entities had an enormous part in this debacle.

I wish Barack Obama good fortune in his endeavors to resolve this problem. I only hope the old adage "talk is cheap" does not come back to haunt him.

I also believe history will prove that George W. Bush was not as bad a president as the news media would have us believe.
