Is this getting old or what? He has nothing, so he blames Europe and George Bush. He doesn't have a clue as to what to do. He's like a ship without a rudder, circling in the ocean.
What a loser.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Monday he inherited many of the country's problems with high debt and deficits when he entered the White House, sounding a theme likely to dominate his 2012 re-election campaign.
Speaking at a Democratic fundraiser, where families paid $15,000 to get a picture with him, Obama defended his economic record and noted that problems in Europe were affecting the United States.
"We do have a serious problem in terms of debt and deficit, and much of it I inherited," Obama said. The financial crisis, he said, made the problem worse.
wow, so how do you remember things were Bush? Are you saying that 8 years of annihilating our economy can be fixed in just 2.5 years. I did not elect Jesus Christ or Zeus, I elected a human being that I believe has the right attitude and leadership to start turning things around. Am I happy with him right now? NO, but do I beleive he can eventually turn this sinking ship into a buoyant sustainable economy?..yes I do.

Obama is not fixing it he's making it worse by expanding the government.

So how did Obama's stimulus bill spending (which was absurdly high), his healthcare bill, and his buyout and loss on private companies help the issue?
What was the debt at before he got into office? What is it at now? Explain to me how that spending helped any at all? I mean, especially if we are going to blame bush for running up the bills, how did Obama's spending help resolve the issue?
There is no doubt in most people's mind that things are worse since Obama. Even if he inherited all these problems, he is just making it worse. What troubles the markets is he won't even own up to the problems so there is no confidence he knows how to fix it. He is not capable of admitting failure.

WW2 ended 66 years ago.
We still blame Hitler.
Vietnam ended almost 40 years ago.
We still blame LBJ.
Time for conservos to face reality. And the reality is that 1000 years from now, the things Bush fouled up will still be Bush's fault.
Just the way the cookie crumbles. Life's tough that way.

You're right. George Bush was a big spender. Obama is continuing his spending, and then some. While blaming spending on him...
