President Obama and the Democrats say the we could have a catastrophe if the debt ceiling is not raised. With an emergency on hand, the President called a press conference yesterday to whine that the Republicans weren’t “leading”.

Now think back to 2008…when we really did have a financial emergency. President Bush went right to work. He sat down with leaders from both parties, he listened and he persuaded. In the end, he got TARP passed in a very short time.

Now you may have not liked TARP, but you can’t say that Bush didn’t show leadership. Bush knew how to lead. Obama can’t even fake it.
