I like how Obama continually and conveniently ignores the fact that he was a member of congress prior to his presidency.
What changes did he ever try to effect?
He was then and is much more now,part of the problem.

No one is blaming him for the explosion, just his incompetent response to the aftermath. 52 days of proven incompetence.

Well, if he can use this disaster to further his agenda items, like banning oil drilling, raising more taxes and passing his version of a cap & tax program, then a few sacrifices have to be made.

The meaning behind Rahm's words below, are really becoming clear now.

He was in the senate, and he voted for every spending bill, every bailout and he not only voted for TARP his Treasury Sec played a major roll in writing it. Sometimes I think he wants us to believe he was living on Mars before he was sworn in as president.

Keep blaming Bush and the Republicans to get consensus thought.
Then everyone will forget.

This guy is a total loser. I've stepped up my rhetoric against him because he is completely caught up in the Credibility Trap. He has NO credibility whatsoever. Therefore, the President is no longer relevant to me. I can only take so much finger pointing from people I encounter in my daily course of life, much less from someone who's supposed to be the "leader" of the Free World.

Barack Obama is a loser. Period. I'm embarrassed for the people who voted for him. I really am.

AND the Tea Party people - don't forget them.

This man-child has no shame. What a petty, petulant, vindictive, immature piece of work.
