I am sure that in the halls of the WH there is much whining and crying at the too early "successes", like the forcing of Bloomberg to not throw that rabble out of the park they consider their home. Those people in the WH just weren't ready for all this to happen so soon.

Maybe it has gotten out of control, to quick and they were not expecting this to happen, the magnitude that it has so fast. Unprepared maybe.

Some believe this is part of Obama's Master Plan, i have known acquaintainces who really feel this way.

While I agree to an extent it would be congress and the former president to blame for tanking the economy from the false war in Iraq, massive tax cuts to the rich, handouts to big oil, giving wall street and the big banks massive bailouts etc,..However wall street and the other big business cronies are the real puppet masters giving millions and millions to their campaigns and other "back scratching" to get them into office, which let to all this cronyism and colossal spending on them, leading to the economic collapse.

I thought I heard him (Obama) playing his flute again. I guess I'm immune to the effects.

Another poll...more bad news for obama and the dems, who are trying to "harness" the negative energy.

Poll: Washington to blame more than Wall Street for economy

Poll: Washington to blame more than Wall Street for economy

Quote:
When asked whom they blame more for the poor economy, 64% of Americans name the federal government and 30% say big financial institutions.
Go ahead champ, give them your wholehearted support.

When the OWS lefties strated begging for 'volunteers' to 'donate' their time to provide medical & dental services (as well as tons of other entitlements), the rest of us knew that they were merely shills of the Democratic Party, aka the Free Lunch Party.

Too bad the people posting on this thread have poor reading comprehension. Blaming someone MORE does not mean you don't blame them, as the title of the OP suggests.
