Seems the Republicans were quick to blame Obama for all of Americas problems before he was even inaugurated and they'll continue to blame him for every American problem for the next 20 years or more by using him as a scapegoat to absolve any future Republican leadership of its own incompetence.

Acutally, it would be "jefferson clinton" and "walker bush". Make sure to use all lower case, it's more disrespectful.

And you guys think Obama's actions have been drastic?
Obama quadrupled down on everything you are complaining about. Until you speak out against that, you are nothing more than a braindead parrot.

Kind of like Obama constantly blaming Bush for his own inaction and screwups? Man, you people are so biased and blind it is disgusting. Our country is in real trouble with people who think like this.

It makes sense that Obama voted the way he did. Of course, by saying 'OBAMA HATES BABBBBBIIIESSSS' they get people all wound up by misrepresenting facts.
Could be those people don't believe that it made sense for Obama to vote that way. Besides anything that starts our with the word "accuse", I don't care to read it. But thanks any way.

I thought Obama was quite reserved in his blaming the Bush administration for the mess he inherited,as far as us people being biased and blind the current crop of whining hysterical Republicans have taken those virtues to a whole new level that i havent seen the likes of in 60 years.

....The result, with Republican politicians cowed into moving ever farther to the right by pundits like Fox News host Glenn Beck, talk radio’s Rush Limbaugh, and activists from so-called “Patriot” groups and the burgeoning Tea Party movement, has been toxic rhetoric and rabid polarization in Washington, divisions arguably even more marked than under George W. Bush. “In terms of partisan conflict, we’ve never really seen anything like this and it’s really shocking for a country that by and large has hung its hat on moderation—compromise between conservatives and liberals,”
Blah blah blah...Soothsayers had been predicting the end of the U.S. since the U.S. was founded...Meanwhile, we are consistently one of the most stable and uncorrupt democracies on the planet.

Isn't Canada far closer to "tearing itself apart"? I remember something about a narrowly-missed referendum on the independence of Quebec just a few years ago...That would've left Canada with a large, conspicuous, & massive hole right in the middle of the country.
