Well now to be fair they don't quite blame him for everything. Whenever it turns out that the people running a multimillion dollar don't know what they're doing and the company goes belly up they blame the union

Why not? Obama blames everything on either Bush, FOXNEWS or Rush, Hannity, etc., and even those who work under him.

This is totally spot on - good post!

I think it's fair to hold conservatives to a higher standard than liberals in regards to personal responsibility, since it's kind of a foreign concept to the latter group (the idea of liberalism is based on blaming others.) So if conservatives believe in personal responsibility, they are going to need to deal with it and hold themselves accountable when things go awry.
