Excuse Obama? Me? I actually did the exact opposite. This was my first post in the thread:



Thank you for showing everybody who reads this thread what I already know: you base all of your statements on an imaginary reality where you replace what people have actually done and said with what you want them to have done and said.

for anything negative that is said about Obama's performance as POTUS.


Obama hasn't done crap to help the economy. it's Bush's fault

Seems to me that anyone who blames either of them would be extremely misguided to begin with. What is the point of discussing those people?

Bush did send us to Iraq, correct? And Obama is slowly bringing our troops home. 1

Who blames Bush for Obama not closing Gitmo? That seems asinine.

every criticism of Obama is met by squeals of "it's not his fault, he inherited that problem from Bush"

The only criticism you brought up that made any sense had to do with Iraq, and Bush did start the Iraq war.

Let's run this down:

You accused people of making arguments they don't make. I called you out for it. Then, butthurt, you accused me of doing something I don't do. I then pointed to the first post I made in this thread where I did the exact opposite of what you accused me of doing. And now, butthurt again, you're bringing out another distraction to accuse me of something I don't do.

I think we have all been around long enough to be unshocked.

you blame Obama for deficits that were increasing as of January 21st, 2009?

No less from the same folks who excused Bush of any negligence in protecting America from a terrorist attack because it occurred only 8 months into hiis presidency -- not enough time for him to take any action against a potential terrorist attack.

Really so you when you accused me of excusing Obama even though my first post in this thread was holding Obama responsible for being ineffective, that was a lie? Okaayyyy. :lol:

Note: Whenever you call someone a liar, you're projecting. It's pathetic.

I have to agree with him. Most of your premises are false. I do not think many blame Bush for much of what you said.

If you actually read people's comments instead of replacing their actual words with what you want them to have said, then you would agree too. :)

Eh, I read people's comments pretty well and if I make a mistake, I admit it and move on. I don't accuse all conservatives of being X and Y in response to my mistake though, so...

Maybe. And some people think aliens visit them at night and probe their anus. That doesn't mean I care or that it represents anything of importance. If you are going to talk about what "us liberals" blame Bush for, maybe try getting it right.

bolded: the part you should read.

I blame Bush for everything he is responsible for:

1. the failure to prevent 9-11.
2. the stupid 2003 tax-cuts.
3. The invasion of Iraq & Afghanistan.
4. allowing Big Oil to author our environmental policy.
5. letting the Housing Bubble-burst the way it did.
6. more to come...

I don't know if anyone would have prevented that given the time line that unfolded previously. Essentially this was a low probability thing, even though I believe law enforcement agencies had heard some rumor of it. It was just something that was never seen before on State soil. Even if we knew about it, less we KNEW about it (implying that we had definitive proof), it would have been ruled low probability. Everything he did after the attack can be critiqued, for he did some dumbass **** in response. Including this decade plus war we find ourselves in now.

Now I want you to tell me how Bush could have stopped this after being president for 8 months?
