Obama Blames Bush Again….Surprised?

Yesterday I started a post with “Dude….seriously?” when I wrote about Obama being his narcissistic self. I could most definitely start this one with the same exclamation.

I mean come on, your seriously blaming Bush still? (h/t Gateway Pundit)

Faced with mounting national opposition to his party’s platform, the president reminded voters the real reason the trillion-dollar stimulus package still hasn’t reduced unemployment to 8 percent as promised: Bush did it, and it’ll take a lot of time to undo it.

“The country cannot return to the “dereliction of duty that helped deliver this recession,” Obama said. He added that the previous administration’s role in the economic meltdown was the “real outrage.”

Recall Jake Tapper asking the White House mouthpiece…isn’t it time for Obama to man-up and quite whining:

But he hasn’t, and he won’t.

It’s everyone else’s fault.

    @aDCBeast

    Bush may have added to the debt(a fact many of us conservatives bemoan), but he didn’t force the next president to spend even more wildly and at a much greater rate, did he? Obama has added almost as much to the debt that Bush did in a quarter of the time, with much more coming.

    @aDCBeast:
    The Bush-did-it trolls are out in force. At some point the buck would have to stop somewhere, but with these people, it is their savior we’re talking about. Like muslims, democrats get infuriated at the thought of their savior being drawn in a bad light. Infuriated is the wrong word – violent is better. But hey, lets make a t.v. show with JC as the main figure, and it is good family fun.
    Plus, preaching socialism on american soil isn’t a republican value, its a socialist value. This is telling coming from someone on the left. Please feel free to move to another country that is alive and well with your politic of choice. The only place it is alive and well here in the states, is in academia and the classroom. Socialism is stillborn in the real world.
    Plus, great argument about slavery. If it wasn’t for republicans, we would still be living in it. Just ask a couple republicans if you doubt me: my friend Abraham Lincoln and Dr. Martin Luther King. They have my back. Oh wait, here comes the great role reversal: republicans were democrats and democrats were republican. Yeah, go for it Dc – you can do it!

    Interesting isn’t it…since somebody ELSE mention “slavery” and getting away from it…. it was the REPUBLICANS who FORCED the Civil Rights act thru, over the fighting and objections of the DEMOCRATS!! But, then how could it be the Democrats are the “party of the Poor/Blacks” today?? The Civil Rights Act went thru Circa 1964…. the SAME time LBJ THEN decided to launch “The great Society”.. where upon the GOV starting “giving away” to said poor/blacks etc.. Welfare, Food stamps,Medicaid etc etc…. if you cannot control them Via “Jim Crow” laws and intimidation…. you control them “Fiscally”…. and the Democrats have been doing it ever since. BUYING votes, with out Tax cash… how lovely. That’s yer boys there ADCBeasty…. STILL keeping em on the “Handout” Plantation… still in Control!! If these people had some DIGNITY about them, they’d be APPALLED!! Democrats STILL got you guys “enslaved”… to THEM! Sick isn’t it…. even Sicker they don’t see it!

    Gee, contradict yourself much?

    Of course we would never expect a Liberal to be honest or to be consistent in their (ahem) logic, so we are not surprised by your idiotic self contradictions. And I’m sure you wont be surprised either, albeit for entirely different reasons.

    As for your insanely ignorant comment about the party of “know”,,, only a complete imbecile like you would think that a victim should cooperate with a thief.

    The Budget of the United States Government is the President’s proposal
    ((( note it’s a “proposal”)))
    to the U.S. Congress which recommends
    ((( Note WHO RECOMMENDS???)))
    funding levels for the next fiscal year, beginning October 1. Congressional decisions
    ((( Note WHO DECIDES???)))
    are governed by rules and legislation regarding the federal budget process. Budget committees set spending limits for the House and Senate committees and for Appropriations subcommittees, which then approve individual appropriations bills to allocate funding to various federal programs.
    After Congress approves an appropriations bill,
    (((WHO Approves the Appropriation??)))
    it is sent to the President, who may sign it into law, or may veto it.
    ((( The POTUS can ACCEPT it, or Not)))
    A vetoed bill is sent back to Congress, which can pass it into law with a two-thirds majority in each chamber.
    ((( Thus it’s CONGRESS that has the FINAL SAY, NOT the Potus)))
    Congress
    (( NOT the POTUS)))
    may also combine all or some appropriations bills into an omnibus reconciliation bill. In addition, the president may request and the Congress
    (((NOT the POTUS)))
    may pass supplemental appropriations bills or emergency supplemental appropriations bills.

    Several government agencies provide budget data and analysis. These include the Government Accountability Office (GAO), Congressional Budget Office, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the U.S. Treasury Department. These agencies have reported that the federal government is facing a series of important financing challenges. In the short-run, tax revenues have declined significantly due to a severe recession and expenditures have expanded dramatically for stimulus and bailout measures. In the long-run, expenditures related to entitlement programs such as Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid are growing considerably faster than the economy overall, as the population matures.[1][2]

    ((( So, ADCBeasty…. CONGRESS has the FINAL SAY in spending, as it has all along. So, WHO is the Stupid Clueless Liberal Idiot here?? Look in the Mirror, I’ll send you a Bill later, for the EDUCATION lesson. Any time…. Dumbass…..)))

    @aDCBeast:

    Someone is not remembering Mitchell/Foley/Rostenkowski routinely declaring Bush 41′s budgets DOA and joked about shoving his budgets in a drawer as they wrote their own.

    Another for instance, how about Bush 43′s final budget the dems held over, they added an across the board 8% increase and cluttered it up with all kinds of giveaways.

    President Obama signed that one into law without fanfare unlike some of the other spending in the spree during the first months of his reign.

    Democrats deceptively wanted the “American people” to have the perception that it was Bush 43′s spending when it was the democrats that owned that spending.

    Your posts are sheer comedy. :roll:

    Republicans killed their incorrect slogan of “Party of Spending” for democrats with their massive spending.

    Obama’s spending is proving CORRECT because the recession technically ended already and the economy has turned around.

    PS ….. Glenn Beck is a MORON. PERIOD.

    aDCBeast #12: No one blamed Bush for anything in this video.

    aDCBeast #17: Can one of you conspiracy theorists point out where in the video Obama or his spokesperson blamed Bush for anything ?

    Psssssttt …. You can just say “it isn’t in the video” and the original post is wrong.

    aDCBeast #39: ….Beck is a MORON

    Speaking of morons… ahem… Curt did not say the video showed Obama (or Gibbs) blaming Bush. Now I know you like your news in pictures, but for that aspect, you’d actually have to click on the linked story in the 2nd paragraphe and read. Had you done that, then Curt reminding you of Tapper trying to corner Gibbs and the O’admin into a cease fire on whining, would have made sense.

    @aDCBeast: ilovebeeswarzone ….
    President Bush blamed Clinton for 9-11
    NEXT !

    Suggest you post the statement text and/or video proving that one, bucko. Other that that, it’s hard to hear you when you’re shouting propaganda and libel from your posterior.

    @aDCBeast: Congress just passes the president’s spending requests. nothing more.

    I see that, in additional to being deprived of adequate reading skills by your Ayer’s era public curriculum, you’ve also been denied basic civics. The Exec admin, with the aid of the OMB, submits what he wants (documented) for any proposed spending. There are only three requirements he provide:

    The condition of the Treasury at the end of the last completed fiscal year. The estimated condition of the Treasury at the end of the current fiscal year. The estimated condition of the Treasury at the end of the next fiscal year if the budget proposals are carried out.

    Congress is is no way obligated to pass that budget as is, without any change or addition it wants. A POTUS can either sign, or not sign. The Constitution designates power of the nation’s purse strings ONLY to Congress. History is filled with budgets delayed, held hostage… Clinton was royally PO’d with Congress not addressing the budget in 2000 after the election.

    Nor are omnibus appropriations the sole source of Congressional spending and the nation’s debt. You may want to pinch yourself as a reminder that the ARRA, sundry housing programs that aren’t working, and O’healthcare are examples of the latest spending outside of the planned budget and increasing the debt. Pay’go is nothing but a slogan with that group… You might want to add unauthorized uses of the TARP I, and stealth TARP II. Since Congressional hold on both chambers since 2007, spending has skyrocketed. And unimaginably so this past year.

    And those Clinton years everyone loves to cite? GOP held Congress. Albeit a far more disciplined group than we’ve seen the past years. But then, I’m an equal opportunity disdain person for all Congress members, regardless of that little letter behind their name.

    To not see any correlation is either blind devotion to partisan propaganda, or sheer stupidity.

    Keep making excuses for Republicans and Bush. Voters still blame Republicans and Bush.

    The bill’s passage comes almost halfway through the fiscal year it was intended to fund, and it was crafted by legislators in the last session of Congress. The government had been running on an emergency measure that was due to expire on Friday.

    The bill increases federal government spending by $31.23bn, or 8%, and provoked howls of protest from the Republican party. At every turn, Republican legislators sought to stymie the bill’s progress and have complained bitterly about it. But with their diminished numbers, they were unable to block the bill or to alter the text of the legislation offered by House Democrats.

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/mar/11/obama-omnibus-spending-bill-congress

    “Voters still blame Republicans…”

    Only the ignorant and uninformed, like…..you.

    BTW, the Repubs were tossed out because of spending, the democrats have proven themselves to be much worse and are obviously going to face the wrath this time around.
