Why not? Your claim can't hold water. He got ObamaCare passed with not 1 repub vote in either House. If he could do that he could have done a LOT of other things.

Excuses, excuses, excuses!

Maybe this crucial fact has eluded your attention, but in just a few short months there will be an opportunity for everyone to decide how to hold President Obama accuontable for the conduct of his presidency.

It's always easier to blame the person before you rather than take the blame yourself. No one ever wants to admit that they did something wrong or are not living up to their potential. If they have someone that performed the job before them, they will blame and blame that person. Even though, by this point, the previous person has no effect on the current state of the job.

Or decide that the Koch Bros. aka "Mitt Romney" is a *&$#@ choice for this country.

Obviously, you remain clueless. What was in "ObamaCare" as of June 2009? Let us start there.

Isn't that convenient. You're saying that Obama isn't accountable for ANYTHING until he will have been out of office for at least two years.

Unbelievable.

Do any of the leftists on this forum have even a single shred of integrity?

An ability to execute and inspire others is equally important...that is called Leadership

Ok. So let's be adults about this and create a mutually agreed upon time table for Obama and Democrat's to take any responsibility whatsoever at the disasterous state of our nation. I would like to say Obama gets about 2 years to be held accountable. Anyone else?

Regardless of blame.....

Compromise for the Left means give in - a little bit at a time. This equals more spending and more dependency on the Democratic Party. Vote for them - free French Fries with your meal. Or something like that.

If Democrats give in to Republicans, it means a balance in spending or no spending at all.

This is unacceptable to Lefties. So where and when is compromise possible?
