1. Isn't the President responsible for everything bad?

it doesn't matter whether he was in office or not, he will be blamed for everything that the Bush Criminal enterprise did.

2. Obama also failed to stop our involvement in the Vietnam Nam war. /nt

[livetohike]

3. Maybe he should have retroactively stopped it!

[Botany]

11. Obama and his time machine have done much damage .....

..... first the birth certificate thing, then the Vietnam war,

6. He's also responsible

for the black plague and not preventing the attack on Pearl Harbor.

10. And he's probably to blame for RMoney's missing tax returns too and

the info contained therein.

[bayareaboy]

7. Why does Ryan ...

And most RePUGs hate themselves so much that they become constant lairs. I am not and have been a god-fearing guy but I do remember that not bearing false witness was a fairly good concept.

[goclark]

make people stupid like that...

[AllyCat]

9. These people will say anything and the media lets them.

Welcome to DU by the way!

[Cosmocat]

22. THIS is it

Going back to the 90s, when AM radio allowed them to take bully control of the media at large, Republicans collectively have come to know that they almost literally, can say ANYTHING and not be held accountable to it.

anyway, at least the people in MI that commented on the story "get it"... Its a big state actually but we should have MI well in hand and seem to based on this sliver of evidence here...

[davidpdx]

17. Fuck what else can they blame Obama for before he took office?

I'm sure they are working on a theory that he shot Kennedy.

[and-justice-for-all]

23. The Great Depression perhaps...nt

[davidpdx]

28. Even better

they'll blame him for Communism.

[dipsydoodle]

18. General shape of things especially for the next few months.

Absurd lies directed towards those daft enough to fall for them.

25. These kind of lies prove that just because someone has a college degree,

it doesn't mean they are smart.

what were mitt's grades, anyway? seriously. how could he not know that President Obama wasn't actually the president yet in '08?

he's looking REALLY stupid telling a new lie every day.

[NickB79]

26. Ryan criticizes Obama for death of Jesus Christ.

Says the Obama administration turned a blind eye to His suffering on the cross, should have sent in Seal Team Six.

[WestSeattle2]

27. The level of incompetence is breathtaking. Perhaps driving the

weinermobile was the acolyte's better career choice.

[JI7]
