I wouldn't blame him. No president has ever been so criticized, scrutinized and just plain disrespected as Obama.

Plain and simple...you go on the View to campaign. Once you are the President you give speeches from the Oval Office and quit campaigning!!!!
Yes, Obama has been criticized, scrutinized and just plain disrespected. And in every speech he makes he blames every problem that he has (as our current president) On Bush. And I don't know where you get your news but Bush never had it easy. He is blamed for the wars that congress passed. He is blamed for the economy that was caused by a Democrat congress. He is blamed for WMD that weren't found but the intellegence agencies and world leaders ALL believed were there.
Obama has been the most polarizing president of my lifetime. He says he wants to work with republicans but hides everything behind closed doors. He signs pay-go then blames republicans when they want UI paid for. Political grandstanding at it's finest.
He crammed a healthcare bill down our throats that will invade our privacy and cost us a fortune. He did that with ALL the dems. Dems will have to own this when all the details come out. People are already learning that BMI will be a part of our medical charts. Wait until people with STDs are told who they can sleep with. People that think this is going to HELP them are no better than the lady waiting for Obama to fill her gas tank and pay her mortgage.
Obama called for Tony of BP to be fired and it takes him 6 weeks to get it done. He tells people to go south on vacation to help their economy yet he goes north. I really wonder what the British think of our president telling a British company who they should employ.
But then when it comes to sealing our border, Obama can't do that because it would upset Calderone. Dems actually gave Calderone a standing ovation!
Our economy is in the toilet and unemployment is rampant but we're letting anyone and everyone come in and take our jobs and use our services. He's SELLING the American people for the votes of illegals and felons.
Yes I feel sorry for Obama. He is being criticized, scrutinized and just plain disrespected. But maybe if he would treat the people of the United States with as much respect as he treats those from other countries that wouldn't be the case. Maybe if he would grow past his experience of a community organizer (campaigner) and decide to BE the President people would respect him. Does he realize the election is over and he needs to address things like unemployment and the economy? Or does he think just blaming Bush will make everything go away?
His election was unprecidented and I love the fact that a racial barrier was torn down. But he is polarizing and race has taken a step backwards IMO.
That makes me sad as I am from a mixed race family.
Democrats are going to have to own all of this before long. I can only hope that his second 2 years are not a repeat of the first two.
