I don't know of anyone who blamed Obama for this mess, however, as he CONSTANTLY refers to BUSH, he has doubled down on spending. The spending that was so bad under Bush with a Democratic held congress the last 2 years apparently is needed to fix this mess.. Also, Obama has FAILED to pass a budget in 3 fucking years.... Again, take the lead....
And you evaded the question once again. WHAT PROBLEMS???? You want Obama to take responsibility for Republican failures. Nobody is that stupid. Almost nobody.
How many times has Obama referred to Bush since taking office? He blamed Bush for a lot on the campaign trail. That's what all candidates do to incumbents, just watch the Mormon. But what exactly has he done since taking office that he has blamed on Bush?
“We inherited a financial crisis unlike any that we’ve seen in our time. This crisis crippled private capital markets and forced us to take steps in our financial system — and with our auto companies — that we would not have otherwise even considered.” - June 1, 2009 “We inherited the worst recession since the Great Depression, a banking system on the verge of meltdown. We had lost 4 million jobs by the time I was sworn in and would then lose another 4 million in the few months right after I was sworn in before our economic policies had a chance to take root.” - May 10, 2011 “Look, we do have a serious problem in terms of debt and deficit, and much of it I inherited when I showed up.” - August 8, 2011 “When I first walked through the door, the deficit stood at $1.3 trillion, with projected deficits of $8 trillion over the next decade. If we had taken office during ordinary times, we would have started bringing down these deficits immediately.” - February 1, 2010 “We thought that it was entirely appropriate for our governments and our agencies to try to root out waste, large and small, in a systematic way. Obviously, this is even more important given the deficits that we’ve inherited and that have grown as a consequence of this recession.” - November 9, 2011 “We’ve made sure to do everything we can to dig ourselves out of this incredible hole that I inherited.” - February 23, 2012
Dude, he didn't mention Bush one time. And then he made 6 absolutely true statements regarding the conditions at the start of his presidency that he inherited, without doubt. Nothing wrong with that. What HE DID NOT DO is to shirk responsibility for addressing the problems that he inherited. What he DID NOT DO is blame Bush for anything that Obama has done since taking office. Why do you refuse to acknowledge that Obama had to deal with a huge fiscal mess that he was presented with and had nothing to do with? Why do you refuse to acknowledge the improvements in GDP, the stock market, the war on terror, foreign policy, health care, etc., etc.?
Because I have been under leaders who have taken over shit squadrons with all there issues and taken full responsibiliy. Because I have been and am apart of units where leadership reigns supreme. It's not about Obama coming into this mess, it has everything to do with him taking on the RESPONSIBILITY of the leader of the FREE WORLD... Stop saying how bad shit was and fucking fix it, or put everything you have into fixing this shitbag of a government. He has done a God damn thing except bitch and moan and blame the GOP. The improvements in GDP are shit, he has the same growth numbers as Bush when Bush was under 4% unemployment... The stock market sucks. The war on terror is still a political fucking mess. Foreign policy is shit and NO AMERICAN PRESIDENT SHOULD EVER BOW. Health care is a fucking mess, etc, etc.
Your ignorance of the situation is not my problem. Hate is your problem. More of the same. GDP has nothing to do with unemployment. GDP measures whether we are in recession or not and we haven't been since summer of 2009. Man, do you ever read the news? The stock market has recovered and is doing fine. People are making money. ??? Is bin Ladin Dead? Is al Awlaki dead? Are we hitting al Qaeda if Aghanistan, Pakistan, Sudan, and Yemen? Yep. Health care is a fucking mess, etc, etc.[/quote]You simply have no awareness of the real world. Health care is not a mess. Foreign policy has recovered from the Bush-Era estrangement of our allies. And Presidents do bow.
Red, your ass is leaking again. More that that Liberal bullshit that if you appose Obama you either hate him or are a racist. Worst recovery of all time is what this president has given us. Failed hope in a black president and change in the form of who wrote the fucking check.

To compare leading a squadron to being the leader of the free world is such a poor analogy that I was hesitant to even dignify this with a reply. Secondly, you have been apart of squadrons where leadership reigns supreme because the alternative is called insubordination and is punishable by court marshal and, again, comparing this to the Presidency is like comparing an apple to an orange seed. Third, why in the world would he take responsibility for something he didn't cause? To insinuate that he should is foolish. I realize that conservatives do not like it when the President says that he inherited a bad situation but it is the truth. The economy was shedding jobs by the hundreds of thousands when he took office. How should he take responsibility for that? The ONLY time when unemployment was 4% under GWB was the day he was sworn into office. In fact he was handed 4% unemployment, a budget surplus and a nation respected and admired around the world and in his eight years unemployment went from 4% to 9%, that budget surplus was squandered on tax breaks and our reputation around the world was shit. The stock market has recovered very well. You must not have money in the market or you would know this too. The war on terror has made a remarkable turn around under this President. In fact, they mocked Bush but they fear Obama. Foreign policy is better than it has been in years and this crap about the President bowing is indicative of your own ignorance. Bowing is akin to shaking hands in many countries and when you travel abroad it is generally considered customary to stay within the customs and traditions of the host country. Heath care IS a fucking mess......what has your party done to try and help? You are entitled to your own opinion but not your own facts.
