"Obama Blames"

[AgeOfEnlightenmentSCP]

Best Google search ever. Just do it. Pages and pages and pages of Obama blames fill in the blank.

Leadership is about taking responsibility. Obama just blames, and blames, and blames.

[privateinvestor]

Are you refering to the speech he gave yesterday about the S&P rating?? He didn't do much to appease the markets who were hung on each and every word he said but what did you expect?? Did you want Obama to say the buck stops with me and I am going to do all I can to fix this debt crisis?? And then outline his ideas how to fix this crisis??

Fun.

Now try "Bush blames".

That comes up with pages and pages as well. I don't have the time to look at them all these results.

Slow day today Paul?

Obama reminds me of a child who spilled his milk and then says it was not my fault you put the glass to close to my plate.

Very interesting. Now putting in "Bush blames" could encompass both GW Bush and GHW Bush.....but the results are as follows:

Per Google:
Bush blames: About 6,080,000 results
Obama Blames: About 10,500,000 results

So, even if we are just going with 'Dubya' that is still 4,420,000 results more for Obama in 3 years as Pres as opposed to 8 years.

Interesting.

Musn't leave Reagan out of the action.Read his second State of The Union Address.After 2 years, he was still blaming the previous administration.

Like many of the people here that are still blaming Bush......3 years after?

But Clinton left us all these surpluses , I thought? Or was that just an: "If, then, maybe" scenario?

[ugonow]

Well Bush said the surpluses were proof taxes were too high and argued for his tax cuts over them.

Can't argue that one.

I'll say that the problem is it's all a political game by both sides. Neither side is worried about what's best for the country....they are worried about what's best for themselves. It's also why you have individuals saying: "Yeah you should cut <whatever>, but don't touch my <whatever>!"

[ugonow]

Very true.

I don't have a clue what Palin is up to. Ya wanna know why? I don't care about Palin. Why do you care so much about Palin?

[weltschmerz]

I don't care about Palin. The thought of her running, and winning, scares the crap out of me.

Well, he said in his speech yesterday in 2 weeks he'll have a plan.
When he starting speaking, the stock market was -400 points, as he continued toward the end it dropped -200 more points . He looked weak, non-engaged as usual, eyes darting from side to side and blamed everything and anything that came to mind, related or non-related. Maybe Reid's fig trees and rose bushes had dried up in Vegas and that was the reason for the downgrade? I did see the water level at Hoover Dam going down quite a bit. Naw, your excuses don't cut it anymore Mr. President. You are the face of America and not taking responsiblity is making you look even weaker. You should be calling Congress back from their vacation and work on a budget and get yourself involved this time. Your Saul Alinsky method isn't working here. Grow a backbone.

"Grow a backbone. "


Maybe he can grow it in his imaginary house in Sweden.

I had a crappy childhood. I could spend the rest of my life flailing and failing and blaming my guardians. It would even be true to a certain extent. But at some point you pick yourself up, say these are the cards I was dealt and figure out what to do with them.

Out of curiosity, since you lived in Russia, and now Canada, are you still a U.S citizen?

[weltschmerz]

No, I'm not.

Is Obama showing enough leadership in Financial Crisis?? If you think he is then what can I say but that I disagree but maybe those who support Obama during this debt crisis may be wrong IMHO
